More quotes by Ville Valo
The most important things are that you are honest with yourself and that making music comes from your heart
Ville Valo
I hate it when bands do that they're so proud of their new album, they have to play all of it and a couple of golden oldies.
Ville Valo
I'm living my dream right now. I get to make music, perform and travel.
Ville Valo
Every girl has something beautiful in her soul. It doesn't matter if she's fat or thin. That has nothing to do with her personality.
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
So basically, I think music at its best can be everything. It can be totally stupid and very intellectual and emotional at the same time. I don't think all those things shut each other out.
Ville Valo
Well, for us, it's always better not to have too many expectations and to just go with the flow because then it's always a big plus no matter what happens.
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.

You can't create a myth on your own. People do it for you.

In almost every interview someone asks what does HIM stand for. I can't even remember our latest lie about that. When Hanson was hot, we said it means Hanson Is Murder. The name doesn't have a particular history. His Infernal Majesty was a totally different band. I think HIM derives from some death metal joke.
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
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
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.
Ville Valo
That music and the lyrical aspects of Razorblade Romance is so personal to me that, now with me being grown up a bit and meeting new people and doing new things, it makes me look at the same things I was writing about back in the day through a different colored lens.
Ville Valo
There's always reasons to make mistakes. Because then you do new mistakes next time. So they're beautiful mistakes.
Ville Valo
I didn't have any role models really. My best friend was a dog. My mum and dad saved a dog from the gutter and that dog was my brother before Jesse was born. Sami was his name and he was my role model.

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
I have never acted in one and I'm not at all interested to do so either.
Ville Valo
Music for me is an emotional thing and it really does make me happy. It's not a tool for me to get fame or see my face in the papers or anything like that. It's about the fact that I really do enjoy it.

Love is madness, you can't put it in doses, it either surges over or under
