Busted is not the ideal band I'd like to be in by any stretch of the imagination.

I understand how hard rock fans feel inside out, because I was one of those people.

There were a few 6th form girls that I got with when I was I the 6th form, they were really nice, so that was cool.

I'm incredibly proud of everything that we've achieved in Busted. We've enjoyed some of the best times in our lives together.

The Busted thing happened when I was 16. I saw an opportunity, took it and it was better than being at school. It was a fun job but I'd never claim Busted was anything other than a pop band.

I wanted to play music. I didn't think about where it would go or what it would do.

I've lived my career backwards - I started off huge and I've got smaller and more personal, and I'm much more comfortable now.
