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.

I love Johnny Cash but I don't love country music that much.
Ville Valo
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.
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
Love is the funeral of hearts.
Ville Valo
Hopefully it will be possible to get all our other albums in American shops one day so if people are interested they can hear it but I'm hoping that people are going to be interested in what we are going to do, not just what we've done.

I like to listen to mellow stuff on the road like Travis, as we are constantly surrounded by rock music on tour and so its nice listening to mellow stuff. Obviously back at home I listen to a lot more rock music.
Ville Valo
I've got loads of ideas. I just have no idea what to do with those ideas

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.

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
Music is my God, and it is the only love that has never left me.
Ville Valo
There's always reasons to make mistakes. Because then you do new mistakes next time. So they're beautiful mistakes.
Ville Valo
Unfortunately we just toured the East and West coasts so we didn't run into any rednecks.

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.

Women aren't objects that you look at only on weekends.
Ville Valo
Life is short and love is over in the morning.
Ville Valo
It's like that with what sort of ideas people outside of the band have of HIM. They all see it through a different lens as well which is beautiful. Hopefully, it makes it an endless topic of conversation.
Ville Valo
I have a big heart and a small brain.
Ville Valo
Los Angeles and New York are the big centers of the music industry worldwide so of course it can be hard for newcomers who don't know what to expect from the music business.
Ville Valo
I love the song 'Into the Night.' It's Roy Orbison meets David Lynch meets Iggy Pop on amphetamines. It has a punk edge that is not HIM, per se. It is super melodic and super '60s, and that is very new to me and it is a sense of achievement to me.
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.
