We started playing music from an early age and so we wasn't really aware of that side of it, the weird thing is the more successful you get the more free booze and drugs you get, they should be given to the bands who don't have the money.

More quotes by Ville Valo
When I heard Elvis Presley, then I knew I had to do music. Music is my god, and is the only love that has never left me. It has always been there and is my best friend.
Ville Valo
I think love keeps on changing every day. It’s not black and white and it’s definitely more than 50 shades of grey.
Ville Valo
Talking about covers, whether visually or sonically, if a particular combination of notes struck a chord in your heart in a way that you want to be a part of it by covering that song, then there's nothing wrong with it.
Ville Valo
Even at school I studied ethics instead of religion.
Ville Valo
The most important things are that you are honest with yourself and that making music comes from your heart
Ville Valo
We're trying to have the band create something beautiful that hopefully one day, 20 years from now, can be picked up by a kid and hopefully have the same effect that Neil Young had on me, or Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath.
Ville Valo
Women aren't objects that you look at only on weekends.
Ville Valo
Some genres I'm not a huge fan of but there are always exceptions that break the rules. There are always a few people doing it in a way weird enough to grab my attention.
Ville Valo
I think if we keep on doing good music and people like us and they buy the magazine because we are in the magazine then they cant basically hate us hopefully.
Ville Valo
You can't create a myth on your own. People do it for you.
Ville Valo
In my eyes, perfection is imperfection
Ville Valo
Music's always been really cathartic. It's the best drug for me to get away from the everyday pressures just for a second via a good song.
Ville Valo
I have 4 kids already, I don’t need anymore. I’m a single parent. I’m taking them through Europe and make them play funny instruments.
Ville Valo
Women are interesting, but that isn't the problem, it is that I like being alone, and I'm also touring so much that it's hard to get a relationship to work.
Ville Valo
The guys in Kiss use some make up too so at first it was exiting. I've almost stopped using make-up nowadays.
Ville Valo
Many other artists who sing about hope think that it is something every single person carries within himself. I'm not so sure if that's true. For me, hope is the little light guiding you the way, which reminds you that life does have a sense, that you have goals. To believe in that is often more easily said than done.
Ville Valo
Music is my God, and it is the only love that has never left me.
Ville Valo
I have never acted in one and I'm not at all interested to do so either.
Ville Valo
Yeah I'm still writing. I've got about 14 tracks now. But we've been on tour so we haven't had time to get back to a rehearsal place.
Ville Valo
I haven't been baptised. My dad's not in the church and is not a religious person. My mum is more spiritual - she does Thai-chi and goes to Stonehenge and things like that. I'm proud to be pagan. Finland is not really a religious country. I'm still looking for my god.
