I never thought of Green Day as a punk band. Just bubblegum, really.

I do use my music to entertain myself, as indeed I use other people's music.

I'm not able to tell you what the best song is yet, because there's more to come. I feel that in me. I can still feel the burning energy and the desire to create and create and create.

You gotta bear in mind, the youth - and this is just in Britain alone - have nowhere to go in the evenings. They've closed all the social centers. There's not even a patch of grass to kick a ball on.

If you were to look back at me as a school kid you'd see a very quiet little church mouse kind of character.

People think I hate the Royal Family, but that's not true.

I have no time for lies and fantasy, and neither should you. Enjoy or die.
