I write by myself initially. That's the way I've always written, just working on pure thought by myself. Then I bring it to the table with whoever I'm collaborating with.
I'm not ashamed of my spiritual beliefs, but I in no way incorporate them into this band.
The way that I've always gone about making music, the rule of thumb, has just been to make what I love.
You can't control all the crazy stuff that happens to you. All you can control is the way you handle it.
The Nightmare Before Christmas is my number one biggest influence artistically in every way.
People will spend copious amounts of time and money working on a costume, only to have no one recognize what character they're dressed as.
Me and my husband say parents of a parent should raise their children. Some people need help with their children more than others, and she's one of the ones that needs some help.
'The Nightmare Before Christmas' is my number one biggest influence artistically in every way.
I'm the goofball. I'm the person cracking people up.
I never really did abandon my true self. It's not like I invented this imaginary person and started to be her.
I like Israel. The fans are incredible. It was the best.
Writing music is my therapy. It’s very purifying!
I cry alot-I dont know why, but it just helps me. I cry over bad and good stuff-sometimes sadness can be beautiful
We've never been a religious band, but the media wants us to be.
