Let the rain falling on your face run into your eyes. Can you see the rainbow now through the stormy skies?

I'm just coming out and I'm going to clearly be myself - I write what I feel, I never worry what others think.

When I'm going through something that has a big impact on my life, it's much easier to sing.

I created Punk for this day and age. Do you see Britney walking around wearing ties and singing punk? Hell no. That's what I do. I'm like a Sid Vicious for a new generation.

A lot of my songs are personal and about me being 16 and having guys break my heart and feeling like it's the end of the world.

In America, I get a lot of younger kids, but there's teens and adults too, ... In Europe, for some reason, I see a lot more males in the audience. In Japan, I don't even notice any kids, partially because they're a lot more strict about fan behavior over there.

Influences come from everywhere. I don't really feel like I had too many influences for the first record because I grew up listening to music in church, and that was pretty much it. I didn't really grow up listening to AC/DC and all those bands.
