View Full Version : Amy & Rocky "magazine not for adults" interview

I searched and didn't find anything on this. This is from "magazine not for adults"


Interviewer: After the success of the single Broken, do you have plans to work with seether again?
Amy: We did a song together which was on the PUNISHER soundtrack, it was one of their songs, and I did a duet with Shaun [seether singer + Amy's boyfriend], but we haven't been writting together.

Interviewer: What can you tell us about any new material?
Amy: We're really enjoying the writting process. Everybody went home, we had a couple of months writting seperately, then we're gonna come together with all the ideas. One of the things that inspired me - I saw VAN HELSING and went home and like, it's stupid but it was visually really really colourful. So i went home and played piano all night. [I wrote] a couple [of songs] - they're not finished, just pieces, mainly fragments... you're gonna have to wait!

Interviewer: What was the weirdest moment of the 2004 MMVA's?
Rocky: When we were taking pictures, I actually put my tongue in Amy's hair... that was pretty weird!
Amy: It was gross... It was an accident!
Rocky: I'm sorry... I won't tell anyone this time!
Amy: Everyday a new rumour! But it's been really cool, actually. It's a really laid-back award thing. It's more like a concert, it feels really different, it's really chilled.

Interviewer: What do the MMVA's mean to you?
Amy: We didn't win! We're losers! Sooo awards don't count - they don't mean anything! Haha!

Interviewer: Under what kind of conditions do you write your best songs?
Amy: It's different with everybody. With me personally, it's more of like I just go into a funk for a couple of days, and kind of lock myself up and work. Usualy it's a dark place. For the music, for me, it's one part of me, one aspect of me. I'm a normal person really, but I have issues. And the band is the place for all my issues.

Interviewer: How do you focus when you're writting?
Amy: I defenitely eat, I do shower...
[murmur]: You can't tell sometimes!
Amy: But I don't call people and it's just really weird, private, cool thing. It makes me happy in my regular life.

Interviewer: Who are your top inspirations?
Amy: for "Fallen": Nine inch nails (especialy THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL); Bjork; KoRn; Tori Amos.

Interviewer: What do you think of today's pop music?
Amy: I think that there's no way to get away from it - there's always gonna be the pop industry. But I think what people really need to realise is that pop and rock re really seperate. There's alot of 'rock' bands that have come out recently that are completely commercial and every guy in the band is attractive and just completely geared towards selling records... So we generaly try to be as ugly as possible, and write our own songs!! We just try to work against the grain.


Does anyone have that picture of Rocky and Amy? lol

Ya, id like to see a link too. There's nothing new persay, but id be interested to see where its from. My bets are on a canadian source considering that they ask about the MMVAs, which i think is kinda interesting cause I WAS THERE... whooo... *sigh* anywho, link us up over there why dont cha.

Me too. But I don't think there is a link, I think this guy transcribed it out of a magazine.

Sorry i don't think the interview is online, I typed it out. I just scanned it now but i dunno how big or readable it is. The resolution on my screen is all messed up so that's why i typed it out in the first place.

It's from a magazine called "magazine not for adults" and yeah, it's canadian.


(Apologies if this is a double-post, my computer did something weird and i had to start over :rolleyes: )

Heh some parts are kind of strange. But it's still good. :D I wonder how Amy's hair tastes like. lol...

Nice, short interview. Someone other than Amy Lee actually got to say something! :eek:

For a while I was beginning to think the other band members couldn't talk. =P

*giggles* That was cute!

"You can't tell sometimes" LMFAO! Was that Rocky who said that?

Dude. That'd be such a priceless picture...lol.

"We're losers" That just made me laugh so hard. They were "losers" last year for a lot of award ceremonies but they got the big ones that counted lol.

That was very cute and very funny. Could you post a larger scan of the article? I actually really like to see how it's laid out and such in the mag (and I like to read it too...I'm such a dork). Thanks for posting! :)

That's a funny interview.
And it's very good that someone else in the band gets to talk than just Amy. :)
Though some of the answers are just the same as in some other interviews.. but I guess if they ask the same questions.. the answers are also the same.

Can't wait for the next cd...!
Thank you for posting that.

Oh, that's funny lol, thanks for that. I wonder if Rocky did it purposefully...it sounds like he did lol. Thanks for scanning it in, as well, but I think I've seen the pictures before. Oh well. I wish Rocky could have said a bit more, or even another member of the band lol. I really want those questions put to another member of the band, other than Amy. :)

cool interview. i love the part where she says theyre losers LMAO! you arent losers guys! youre just not accustomed to winning! (joke) Anyway, i saw the pics and i just noticed amy has been wearing lots of whites lately, instead of her black, purple, pink, etc. It's really cool. Hurray, someone besides Amy got to talk even if it was just for one question w00t ;) :p

Ahhh thank you! Very cool!

Notice how much happier Amy looks here than she did at the VMAs last night ;) lol.

Example:

First 2 pictures, as opposed to last 2 pictures. LMAO!

well clearly.
that's because canada ROCKS :)
and maybe because there were more ummmm better bands at our award show than the vma's ;) hehehe
and because ours was about the music, not about the voting.
and yet again, canada is the place to be :) hehehe

Amy did say to Willows once "i'd rather be in toronto than new york" or something like that. :) excellent choice amy. heh
