Apart from a very close circle of friends, few people know my true self, and it's normal, I never put it into my music.

Image and music always works together for me. I think they're equally important and I've always done things in a way that people remember them by, but I don't set out to just shock people...because that's very easy, a lot of people could do that, I just like to do things the way that makes me happy really. And sometimes that's too much for certain people, but, you know, I try to push the envelope to make the boundaries wider as far as what you can and can't do in music.

I've been able to watch and to weather a lot of different periods in entertainment, politics and life.

He's just simply John5 because he's the fifth person that we've hired. In the future, everyone will have numbers instead of names

I traveled into the future to get back in time.
