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
Let's put it this way: the glass is half-empty, but the fact is, I can always get another drink

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.

I need a soul mate so that I can be who I am, naked. I want there to be someone who picks up my heavy, bleeding heart and takes it somewhere safe and warm.

I'm a huge fan of James Dean, that got me started. Nowadays I smoke four packs in a day.

The most romantic thing is to look someone straight in the eyes and say and mean, “I love you”, that's a lot. It's a really hard thing because you can never be certain of yourself, but at that particular moment, you feel like that. Its magic
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.

The most important things are that you are honest with yourself and that making music comes from your heart

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.

I love Johnny Cash but I don't love country music that much.
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.

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
Falling in love is the best way to kill your heart because then it's not yours anymore. It's laid in a coffin, waiting to be cremated.

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
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
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.

I've got asthma. When I was 17 I forgot to take my medication and was taken to a hospital for almost two weeks. After that I've taken better care of my illness.
Ville Valo
I'm a collecting maniac and I buy a lot of books and records. I have over thousand cds.

Women aren't objects that you look at only on weekends.

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.
