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.
Busted is not the ideal band I'd like to be in by any stretch of the imagination.
I wanted to play music. I didn't think about where it would go or what it would do.
I was fine with everything except Maths. I was terrible at Maths.
I've taken my destiny into my own hands and I'm in a happy place.
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.
Lots of people say to me, 'I completely hate Busted'. That's completely cool with me. I understand why.
Pop is in a shocking state at the moment.
I love my girlfriend to bits. I'd never do anything to hurt her.
Really young kids are into guitars.
My life now could not be better.
It was a fun job but I'd never claim Busted was anything other than a pop band.
I've got so many musical personalities, I could probably get treatment for it.
I wouldn't go back and change anything.
