Interview with Hayley Williams and Jeremy Davis – May 9, 2012
Interview brought to you by Linnea and Tilda (Parayeah)
alessinwonder1andasked:
Hayley: How do you think your stage presence has grown over the years, from when you started out till now? Has being a lead singer given you more confidence? Answer: I still get nervous like I did in the beginning but maybe I’ve just learned how to better channel that energy into something bigger than me. I’m not very big so it’s not that hard to do! And no, I’d say that being a singer actually made me less confident while getting older and just growing into the woman I’m supposed to be has made me more comfortable with who I am. - Hayley
mstandsformeasked:
How do you guys feel about the fact that Paramore fans from all over the world are meeting up and getting to know each other not only online, but for real and becoming really close friends? Knowing that it was you guys that made it all possible? Answer: We were just talking about this literally seconds ago! It’s amazing, first of all, to see how you guys grow up with us. Whether it’s being there before and after you got into the college you wanted to go to… or before you got married… or right after you graduated high school. To see you all support each other and know we are a part of your lives is really humbling. – Hayley
tallforestasked:
What do you do when you’re not feeling positive or motivated? Answer: If I’m feeling really unmotivated or just tired of being at home away from tour and the busy schedule, I actually go and read fans’ blogs or watch YouTube videos of us on tour. It actually helps. – Jeremy
paramorecityasked:
3 words to describe the Parafamily? Answer: We just did this for one other interview so we’ll give you the same words just so you know it’s true: Steadfast, creative, and unparalleled.
piarazziasked:
I’ve been supporting the band since AWIF and I felt like I grew up with you guys (Record-speaking), do you guys ever felt any pressure in growing up? I mean, people somehow expect that there will be changes per album. Answer: Honestly, we grow and change everyday. Not only the three of us but everyone. If there were no growth or change between each album then we wouldn’t be being honest with ourselves. There is pressure but mostly I think it comes from us always wanting to one-up ourselves and try to become better human beings. – Hayley
renfersasked:
If a movie was made of your life who would play you and what songs would be on the soundtrack? Answer: Ryan Gosling, with a beard, from the Notebook. – Jeremy
Emma Watson… she might need extensions… but my bangs are super short right now so it could work out nicely. – Hayley
Taylor isn’t here right now so we’re going to pick for him. We pick young Kirk Hammett from Metallica. – Hayley and Jeremy.
trololo010asked:
Would you consider making an album for all of your previously unreleased demos? Answer: Realistically, no. Obviously, the band has been through a lot of member changes and it wouldn’t be right for us to use all of the older songs that weren’t 100% from us as a full body of work. - Hayley
andrealadybugasked:
What is it that keeps you going? Why are you still doing this after 7 years? Answer: This is our calling and our purpose in the world. We love playing music, we love playing music together and we love playing for you guys. - Hayley
withmynewwingsasked:
How does it feel knowing that your music save kids’ lives? Do you really know how much you mean to us? Answer: It’s pretty awesome. It’s kind of an amazing feeling to know that when some of our fans feel like no one else is there, even though we can’t physically be there, they still think about us and our music. If our music is the only thing in these kids’ lives that is positive that makes them want to stay alive, well it’s sad but it’s also a huge honor. – Jeremy
mattb4rnesasked:
If the three of you were dropped in the hunger games arena, who do you think has the biggest chance of winning? Answer: Jeremy. If Taylor were here too he’d say Jeremy. I bet even Jeremy would say Jeremy. – Hayley
im-using-youasked:
Hayley: How did you get over being bullied and what do you want to say to people who are being bullied? Answer: Actually, I ended up dropping out of public school towards the end of 7th grade. It sucked! But then I started going to a much smaller sort of tutorial and that’s where I met the guys. Maybe that’s why I’ve become so nerdy… I went to this tiny little school made up of super smart kids and burn outs. There really was not much normalcy happening in my adolescence but that’s ok. Everyone has their own story and that’s something I hope for everyone to learn at a young enough age. Just because something is right for someone else doesn’t make it right for you. It’s cooler to be yourself. - Hayley
towardsagoalthatsnonexistantasked:
Hayley: What is your favorite lyric that you’ve written? Answer: Wow. This is a tough one for me. I’ve always enjoyed the line “your anger, your anchor… but I’ll sail much further on” from the 2nd verse to “Renegade”. A lot of the lyrics I’ve been writing for the new album are some of my favorites in a long while. But I can’t give those away just yet! – Hayley
hell0-c0ld-w0rldasked:
Any advice for young musicians looking to make a name for themselves? Answer: There’s so many people in the music business or even in general who will tell you that you can’t do this or that just because you haven’t already had success but I feel like anyone can do anything they put their mind to as long as they stay devoted and stay passionate. – Jeremy
ch-ndl-rasked:
If you could describe the new album as a combination of two animals, which two animals would it be? Answer: Any Lisa Frank animal and a blowfish. – Hayley
threewhitelinesasked:
Hayley: How would you react if Taylor suddenly transformed into a fish? Answer: A blowfish? – Hayley
theawoopasked:
What are you guys’ favorite Paramore songs? Answer: “Daydreaming” – Jeremy
invalidiaasked:
There’s a band called “Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head”, if you had to name a band after yourself what would it be called and why? Answer: Hayley Williams’s Gap-Tooth Face. – Jeremy
defjuciaasked:
If the band wasn’t called Paramore, what would the name be instead? Answer: I don’t want to know! – Hayley
wehavethevictoryasked:
Hayley: I’ve made some of my best friends through my love of Paramore. I was wondering if you became good friends with anyone you met while at a gig or in online fan clubs? Answer: Yeah definitely! We have made so many friends at our shows. For instance, I met my friend Dakotah on the Warped Tour. – Hayley
-fragilebrokenthingasked:
If you could be any animal, what would you be? Answer: Jeremy just left, so I’m taking the rest of these… I just recently figured out that Narwhals are actually real animals and aren’t merely mythical creatures. So, that’s an easy answer. I’d be a Narwhal… unicorn of the sea. – Hayley
swiftingparamoreasked:
How did you guys came on the idea of the Paramore bars sign? Answer: We wanted something that represented the security we have now as the 3 of us and something that also encompassed our devotion to this. The reason that the actual bars are just negative space (only visible because of the border around them) is because the border represents our family on tour and the family that we have with our fans. You guys essentially, “make us” up. - Hayley
htadotaylorasked:
Since you are not on tour, I want to know if you can say a “bad part” for being on. I mean, everything has two sides, we want to know if touring has a bad one? Answer: The obvious answer is that we just miss our families a whole lot. There’s also little things, like not having to keep your shampoo and lotions and stuff in a tiny bag all the time… and having your own space and familiarity… that I always miss. – Hayley
himynameisignoranceasked:
Which of your music videos was the most fun to do? Answer: “Monster” was so much fun to make. The explosions were awesome and floating in a big warm pool was the best way to end the night. – Hayley
Tilda’s question:
What is it that makes you bring up people on stage every show? (Thank you so much for letting me be one of them. I will forever be thankful for that.) Answer: Not many people know this but I was pulled up on stage once when a Nickelodeon game show came to my hometown. I think I was 7 years old. My team lost so we got slimed… and it’s still one of the coolest memories I have of growing up in the 90’s. Memories are what make up our human lives. The experiences we can take with us and the people we hold in our minds can shape us. Going to a show of a band you love is memorable enough but actually being a part of it could really change the way you remember a certain day or even a certain year of your life. We love having the opportunity to make memories with people that we may have never met otherwise. – Hayley
Linnea’s question:
If you were to hold a concert where you could only play 3 songs of your own choice, what songs would you play and why? Answer: Oh my. I hope the guys are ok with these answers: “Misery Business”, “Daydreaming”, and “Misguided Ghosts”. – Hayley
Also, so many people have asked the following questions:
- Hayley, favourite hair colour that you’ve had? Answer: The “crushcrushcrush” hair!
- How’s everything going with the new album? Answer: This album is going to be so much fun to record. I can’t even believe how much I love these songs. And we’re really excited to be able to blog/post pictures from the studio and keep you guys up to date on our progress once we’re actually in the studio. – Hayley
- Your biggest inspirations? Answer: My family.

Som ni säkert vet så är Paramore på omslaget utav detta nummer utav Alternativ Press. Dom har nu postat en artikel som inte är med i tidningen om när Hayley var på omslaget utav Cosmo för ett tag sen.
Hayley, I was reading some of the Paramore diary/blog entries from this year. There is a theme of rebirth in what you were talking about—like when you were discussing how you were on the cover of Cosmo earlier this year. You were saying things like, “I’m going to accept my role” within Paramore.
Hayley Williams: I still think about that. Being on Cosmo is not something I’ve ever strived for. I never was like, “I want to be a Cosmo girl.” I don’t know if you know me, but I don’t typically care about things like that—even [though] as a girl, I love fashion magazines, I love beauty products. That was a weird thing for me to go through, because I did have to accept, like, “Dude. Cosmo magazine just came to me and they were like, “You know what? Your band’s kickass, we like you. Come be on our cover.” What other band band are they even talking to? Other than a pop singer like Rihanna, all the rest of the cover girls this year have been actresses—I remember right before me was Olivia Wilde. [They were] just gorgeous, beautiful women—and I will never put myself in the ranking of those women. It’s not like I have super issues with myself—I definitely am like any other person, I’m self-conscious a lot of times—but I will never put myself on a list of women. But Cosmo did.
Holy crap! I still don’t accept it, and I still don’t feel like it was real, but I accept the fact now more than ever that I am the girl in Paramore, and even though I don’t always want people looking at me, sometimes they’re going to. And I gotta get over it and stop whining about it. Because we’re okay—we weren’t okay, and that’s probably what made me so kind of insecure about being the singer. But we’re fine now, and I don’t have anything to prove to [my bandmates]—they know I’m not trying to be, like, [Gestures like she’s attention-getting] all the time.
That was a head trip doing Cosmo, for sure. I’ll never wear those outfits ever again. [Laughs.]
Jeremy Davis: Anything [published] that looks like she’s standing out in front of everyone else in the band, she’s always not like that. Even though [Taylor and I are] sitting there—or anyone else—we’re sitting there, saying, “It’s important to do that.” Even music magazines that we do will have her on the cover and not the full band—but the band name is right there. You have to be okay and be confident to be able to do something like that.
Taylor York: That’s true. I think probably since the beginning [of the band we] all did have to work through our own insecurities. Now we’re at a place where me and Jeremy…[Laughs] We kind of feel bad sometimes, because we like when she gets attention, because we can go places and people don’t really know who we are. I’m like, “Oh, we can be normal!” But she’s really good at handling her position.
We did have to work through insecurities and become more confident and realize our identity isn’t in this band, necessarily. The amount of people that want an autograph or the amount of pictures that we get—that’s just not what our identity is. We just love playing music and being in a band. We realized—you know, if Hayley wants to do this shot by herself and we’re not in it, well, that’s an outfit I don’t have to find. [Everybody laughs.] You just have to look at the positives.
But yeah—we don’t care at all. People always assume that me and Jeremy are super-bitter, we just hate she gets this attention…
Williams: Yeah, that was always the story.
York: Which has never been the case. It’s not important to us.

Paramore kommer att vara på omslaget av Alternative Press: “Most Anticipated Music of 2012″ januari 2012 frågan. Mer information om frågan och hur man köpa den finns här.
Frågan inkluderar en ny fotografering och en ny intervju med Paramore. Bilderna har tagits av bandets fotograf Lindsey Byrnes i New York City och intervju har skrivits av APs Annie Zalenski.
Paramore’s frequent use of the word “fun” [during AP’s interview] is heartening, especially because the band admit that being in Paramore hasn’t always been fun in previous years.
“We’ve always enjoyed what we do,” guitarist Taylor York says, “but we’d watch other bands on tour with us and they would just be having a blast. They’d be in vans, all cramming in one hotel room. Every day, they were just stoked to be there. In my head, I’m like, ‘Either they’re just really mistaken’”—at this, everybody laughs—“‘or we’re missing something. I don’t think it’s possible to have that much fun.’”
“I felt so bad for the longest time, because we made being in a band look like it wasn’t fun,” adds frontwoman Hayley Williams. “In my opinion. Other people might not have thought that, but you imagine all the interviews we did where it was just like, ‘Uhhh…’
“It’s important for young people to know how much fun it is to make music with your friends,” she continues. “You have to fight for it, of course, but it’s the biggest gift to play music for people, and it’s a gift even if you’re not playing for anybody. It’s fun, and I’m excited. We’re stoked to have that spirit revolving around this [forthcoming] album and just relax into the process.”
The members of Paramore admit keeping things low-key—and being selective about their promotional obligations—helped them get through the year. But paradoxically, getting back on the road and being around their fans was good for morale. York says Paramore started rediscovering how much they enjoy being in a band together while touring this year, especially when they traveled to South America in February. “This winter, when Zac and Josh left, we went through a really hard time,” he says. “I think we had to go through that. We all love each other, but we had to come together so closely that we really rediscovered how much we really love each other—and how much we love playing music. We had to go through that to realize what we had.”
“For a while, it felt like music was our only escape, like soundcheck or shows,” says bassist Jeremy Davis. “And it never was long enough; you didn’t really want to leave soundcheck, because that’s whenever nothing else mattered. We’ve always had a blast onstage, had fun with the fans and the interaction and everything. But it seems like so much more fun [now], I have no idea why. What used to not be fun, we find joy in—and find joy in each other. It shows in every way, even onstage. Now we’re bouncing all over the place and smiling. If you mess up, it’s like, ‘Whatever, it’s music.’”

Zimbio.com har gjort en artikel om vilka som är Hayley’s favorit låtar, här har ni hela artikeln.
Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams spends a lot of time recommending tunes to her 2 million-plus Twitter fans, whether she’s encouraging them to check out the latest New Found Glory album (her boyfriend, Chad Gilbert, happens to be their guiltarist) or singing praise for classics like The Angels’ “I Adore Him.”
Hayley gets a lot of love from her fellow celebs, too: Rihanna once told Vanity Fair that Paramore was her favorite band, and she’s close friends with Taylor Swift, who invited Hayley to sing a duet with her at a recent show.
1. “Carrying the Banner,” The Newsies Soundtrack
Like many an ’80s-born kid, Hayley grew up watching some deliciously cheesy Disney musicals. She told SPiN that this tune is her all-time favorite song, explaining, “I grew up watching Newsies with my mom — and luckily, so did a few of my friends. Well, they never watched it with my mom but… you get it. We always blast this one on road trips!”
2. “I’m Not the One,” New Found Glory
Williams’ dedication to her boyfriend Chad Gilbert is obvious – she can’t stop gushing about his music. She called this song one of her favorites on Twitter, writing, “It’s so catchy it actually hurts my face” (she likes to write about her face a lot). When a fan pointed out her obvious bias, she tweeted, “hahah no i just like to think i have excellent taste in catchy tunes.”
3. “Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now,” The Smiths
Hayley listens to a lot of The Smiths, and she does have favorites: “Ask,” and this tune, a 1984 hit. She even has dreams about Morrissey, although they’re unpleasant: “[I] I dreamed I was in a school cafeteria and something really bad happened to Morrissey. He was brought in on a stretcher and then rolled through the room to some kind of hospital. And I just started crying uncontrollably. Then I woke up. It was awful.”
