Kevin's quotes 2
"My dad's death made me realize that life is short and you gotta go for it."
"I think the way that we got together, that we came together, I think, I guess is just destiny."
You
can tell you fancy someone when you...
Pay
them a lot of attention.
My
idea of paradise is...
Relaxing somewhere hot.
"For me, sentimentally, my favorite places were Germany, Austria, and Switzerland because that's where it really happened for the Backstreet Boys first. I really like looking at all the old castles, and there are lots of castles in Germany. We also saw some remnants of castles in Switzerland while we were driving through the Alps."
Kevin's been playing the piano for years, but recently he's started doing a lot more of song writing. "I'm really interested in all aspects of music", he explains. "You know, I love what I do, but one day a time'll come when I wanna do something a little different, maybe working in the studio, producing or something." That's why he decided to take up the bass, because it's so important to know all about rhythm when writing songs.
"Backstreet Boys is named after a flea market in Orlando, Florida, Backstreet Market. We've been asked this so many times that it is easy to answer. Actually, the parking lot of the marked is where kids hang out and listen to music and stuff. So we're really named after the hangout, not the market."
Do
you guys think you'll stay together or are you going to be like most other
groups and split up after a couple of albums?
Well, we've been together for three years already. We don't get along
well, we get along like brothers. For any group to be succeed, there must
be communication and a common goal to make music. You gotta stay focused.
I guess other groups split up because they lose sight of their goals.
What's
the sweetest thing a girl's done for you?
Probably the coolest thing was really sick and this girl I was dating
rang her mum to get the recipe for chicken noodle soup and she made it
for me from scratch - isn't that sweet?
How
often do you need a hug?
I could use a hug every day, but I'm not likely to get it! It's something
I really miss. We get a lot of attention, but not a lot of affection physically.
Who
would you cry in front of?
I cry in movie theaters all the time. I get that from my grandfather
- we're a real sentimental family. Brian's like that as well. When we got
our first gold record we bawled like babies.
Are
you a blanket or duvet man?
I'm definitely a duvet man. I like them big floppy and loose. Loads
of room to move around.
Would
you let your lady borrow your clothes?
I love it when they wear my clothes - it's real sexy ! Girls look so
pretty in big sweaters - that attracts me more than a mini-skirt.
Is
it possible to be just good friends with a girl?
I think it's hard because we're traveling so much - it's hard to tell
if some people are real friends or not.
