I think that music is a lifestyle that you sort of intravenously plug into and unplug from when you do and don't need it. Some people live it 10 hours a day, some on weekends. It's no more important or non-important than that.
I love women. My life revolves around them.
I don't know if I believe in life after death so much as I believe that there is something out there.
I've always had an eye for the oddities in life.
They say the music you listen to in your formative years stays with you and leaves an impression for the rest of your life. For me, the things that I fell in love with happened in the '70s, when artists were nurtured by record companies and it wasn't about singles.
I think anything that's creative really takes my mind off whatever it is that I'm going through in my life. If you're going through heartbreak, and you can write a song, it's a wonderful win-win, because it takes your mind off the heartbreak, and you get to vent.
We all fall off the wagon. It's only one day; it's not the rest of your life. Pick yourself up and go again.
In my own life I like to be poised and have a positive outlook on life, and I'm leading by example to my children and people around me.
Life is like a long ride to nowhere in particular.
When You've lost it all....thats when you realize that Life is Beautiful.
Everyone felt as if they were doing something really important. This song, both musically and lyrically, relates to many of the things that are happening now, as the hardest hit areas set out to rebuild.
Everybody was paranoid that it was going to be the same as it used to be. People had cold feet. They weren't sure. It's like getting back into a relationship that didn't work out real well. Once we got back in, we realized why it was so magical, but it took some prodding and some time, and everything just sort of worked itself out organically.
I mean, you can hate us. I don't care if you hate us, but no one will ever sound like us.
SIXX: A.M. is a passion project. I think when you do things like that and put your heart into them and do your best and don't necessarily put them on a marketing grid, that's when things turn out the best.
