Like Good Charlotte, Green Day had a huge influence on me. Just the way they play live and the energy they bring to a show is incredible. They can really command a whole stadium.
Michael Hutchence is an incredible frontman and a huge influence on me. I really love 'Mystify' and 'New Sensation.'
You should never drink before you go on stage. That's a very bad idea if you want to give your all to your fans.
I love being in the band, I love being that person and it's such a beautiful and ridiculous adventure but that has an effect mentally, good and bad, just from being the age we were.
I started writing songs on my own and trying to push myself in that way, and then I stumbled into it being a separate project.
I think at the start of writing it was less intense topics, and then once I broke the seal I was more comfortable writing about harder things, and going through family history.
There were some relationships that weren't quite in line with the way we want to do things and the way that we want to be perceived by a lot of people.
I love being in the band and I love being the fourth member of 5SOS, but someone I've seen do something separate well is Brandon Flowers from The Killers. I love that he has a place where he can go. As a career I like that a lot; it just seems like a creative place that he can keep going back to.

Sometimes you're writing a song and you have an image whilst writing a song. I don't think you ever base a songwriting process around a video, but when you're writing a song sometimes it'll be a very visual song.Collection: Song
