Every actor wants to break out of the box that they put you in and that's where I'm heading, out of the box as fast as I can.

I'm thought of as very light 'pop-y' kind of music, but it all had very dark undercurrents and I was a very messed up person... there's a lot of double entendre stuff in it.

Certainly with the radio now, a lot of late 20s, 30s and 40-year-olds don't listen to that music. There's nothing in it for them... [but] my son can't get enough of it because it's speaking to him and not to us... .A lot of the music that we hear now starts to sound the same.

They're songs I honestly wish I'd written. I had a huge list of songs but wanted to keep the album a little bit more on the moody side.

My first crush was Hayley Mills when I was a little kid in England. I used to kiss her picture goodnight.

Puberty hit me very hard, and I basically had no use for school once I discovered the guitar.
