All we did was to sit around, collect some ideas, wait and see what's going to happen. That was it.
Every time you walk into a room, it's, like, is there a booger hanging out? Is there a wrinkle here, a gray hair there? It makes you psycho.
I never really thought we'd fitted into the cross-over drawer. But I think the real Sugar Ray fans did like us because we always had variety and because we experimented a lot.
I really do hope that the people will like 14:59. The critics seem to like it. We got a lot of good reviews.
I'm really fed up with all the credibility talk. A lot of times it seems to be more important than the music. Well, I guess for a lot of people it actually is. We don't care for credibility.
It's funny; we never had anything like credibility. Even though we all have some sort of punk-rock background, but so what? I really don't care about that. What's credibility anyway? Who has credibility?
Of course, we wrote the songs accordingly and performed and recorded them that way. At that time, we really thought it was right, but you know, seen in retrospect, it made the album sound forced, and not really great.
There are a lot of people out there who are just waiting that we fail. They brought up the theory that we're one-hit wonders and they want us to fall flat on our noses, just to prove them right.
Today they're praising you sky high, place you on a pedestal and tomorrow they don't want to know you.
We picked the title just to show them that we're aware of the fact, that we're slightly disillusioned and aware of what goes on in the music business.
We were always open to all sides and experimented an awful lot. That way we had a lot of mellow songs and a lot of noisy, loud songs.
We were kind of caught up in the genre trap. We didn't really have a lot of artistic freedom. They wanted us to go into a certain direction, so they could promote us easier.
You know how it is with drawers and labels in the music business. They don't want anything to be complicated. They just want it simple, as simple as possible.
