Hey, here are some wacky, funny, occaisonnaly zany, and almost never serious because they aren't as funny :) so, as Zac says "Peace, love, and BulletProof Marshmallows"


"Stop the mushy stuff!" -Zac

"I will, I promise!" -Zac

"I've got a machete and a bootknife!" -Zac

"Now you're gonna die!" -Zac

"Why are you buying us flowers?" -Zac

"The color... yeah, I like the color contrast." -Zac

"Did you tell us this, or did you plan it on your own?" -Zac

"You have big eyebrows!" -Zac

"No one can unplug me! Ha ha ha!" -Taylor

"Wanted - dead or alive!" -Taylor

"Zac, you'd make a cute girl." -Taylor

"Bands don't lose their hearing because of the music but because of the audience." -Taylor

"What do you reckon. Is that an English thing to say?" -Taylor

"Take a look at Marilyn Manson for a second." -Taylor

"They almost ripped my body half apart!" -Taylor

"It's really weird getting phone calls and people going 'I love you, I love you.'." -Taylor

"It's awesome!" -Zac

"We could wear wigs and latex noses!" -Taylor

"If we go off, just the three of us somewhere, it's kind of not a good idea but we do it anyway." -Taylor

"Zac, you're retarded" -Taylor

"Jellybeans, mmm!" -Zac

"People ask us if there's girls we write about and there's actually not. We just dream about them!" -Taylor

"Hey! Don't play those tapes 'cause they'll blow up!" -Zac

"Sorry, we're gonna be sued by a few mothers. We didn't mean to chop your head off, I mean it was Zac." -Taylor

"It means now he's [Ike] 17 instead of 16." -Taylor

Once he [Ike] turns 18, he can be convicted." -Taylor

"I could go to juvie instead of real prison." -Isaac

"Beep! wrong answer! Do not pass go, do not collect $200!" -Taylor

"Zac was sitting with his genius, um, mum, mum, mum, mum."-Taylor

"Why would you be sitting outside at a hotel?" -Taylor

"Can we crowd surf?" -Zac

"We're regular kids!" -Zac

"As you can see, Zac gets a little carried away." -Isaac

"If you got a monkey that day, you'd write a song about a monkey." -Zac

"If we got a monkey, I'd be too busy playing with it to write a song about it!" -Taylor

"Yeah, Zac was dropped on his head as a baby..." -Taylor

"I think a lot of times we're inspired [to write a song] by whatever happens - talking to friends, doing whatever. You get inspired and you write a song!" -Taylor

"Usually when Tay has his moments, it's late at night and everyone is tired." -Zac

"Actually I'd like to be a cartoonist if this doesn't work out." -Zac

"We don't want to be the next Partridge Family." -Isaac

"I want to stay in Oklahoma because it's kind of a cool place to go back to." -Zac

"I bang on things." -Zac

"Just like styles change, music changes." -Isaac

"Kids don't hate their parents as much as they did two years ago." -Taylor

"We've always been close." -Zac

"We're interested in doing movies." -Isaac

"I tap on tables all the time, I can't stop. I like to drum all the time. My brothers keep saying 'Tay, shut up', But I can't." -Taylor

"We want to say right now that we're not going to put out Hanson dolls..." -Taylor

"Um... groceries?" -Zac

"No, I got the moves." -Zac

"It's not very often you're on a rocking boat singing to a packed room of girls, after all. It was pretty wild."-Taylor

"The video was all of our ideas, twisted together."-Taylor

"We would plug our ears and even then the shrieks would cut through."-Taylor

"Think about how many times you say 'weird'"-Taylor

''Oh man, that sounds really cool!''-Isaac

"Although we love what's on the radio now, that's not the stuff that inspired us."-Taylor

"This is not about fame and fortune or anything like that for us. We are doing this because we love to make music."-Taylor

"I was six when we started and even then I knew that I wanted to sing. We were all serious about it even then."-Zac

"We know that the kind of success we're having may not last forever. Success can go as fast as it comes, and we all realize that. Anyone who doesn't realize that is in trouble because they can lose touch with reality."-Ike

"I've really enjoyed going to the different places around the world. I got to go to the top of the Eiffle Tower in Paris.. that was very exciting. And I really liked the food in Italy."-Zac

"There's this guy, his name is Zac and he's in a band..."-Zac

"I didn't know you cared about me that much." -Isaac

"Neither did I." -Taylor

"A tennis racket makes a great fake guitar" -Isaac

"It's been fun, people have treated us so well." -Zac

"We used to take over the living room!" -Taylor

"You could say singing is in our genes. Both our parents sang and made up songs constantly." -Isaac

"We like to focus on the positive things." -Taylor

"You can't expect success, you can only hope for it." -Zac

"There's really no big secret as to why I play the drums. Nobody else's arms are as long. I couldn't play the piano so I went to the drums." -Zac

"This is not about the fame or the fortune or anything like that for us. We are doing this because we love to make the music." -Taylor

"I don't usually have dreams. I'm too busy sleeping to dream." -Zac

"Italy is really cool, for the girls and for the food." -Taylor

"We're best friends, only bester" -Zac

"I used to be the goofiest, and then Zac just kind of took over." -Isaac

"I think I'm probably just so shy that I actually just act wacky to make up." -Zac

"Put it this way. We got the drums and the instruments and a week later we played live. But that doesn't mean we were good when we played, it just means we got out there and did it." -Taylor

'Even though being a kid is kind of a carefree sort of thing for the most part, I guess there are definitely a lot of things that stick in kids' minds." -Isaac

"Sometimes it feels like the girls aren't screaming at us, they're screaming at some band called Hanson they saw on TV"-Taylor

"Hey, if we moved to Alaska it would be light all day for half the year and we'd never have to go to bed!" - Zac

"We're not a young band, we're just a band who happens to be young." - Isaac

"We're not doing this because we want girls to scream at us . . . but they can scream if they want!" -Taylor

"We watch action movies and we don't cry at Arnold Schwarzenegger!" - Taylor

"I tap on everything, all the time. It annoys people." - Taylor

"We've met a lot of really good friends who were fans to begin with and you can tell when fans are so obsessed with you that they wouldn't be able to concentrate on getting to know you. It's not hard to figure that out." - Isaac

"If there's a girl who's a fan and she's a bit crazy, you are not going to go out with her." - Taylor

"We met the Spice Girls and we really liked them. Geri's quite small without her platform shoes on. I'll probably out-grow her in a few months time!" - Zac

"I'm scared I might be tempted to get a nose job!" - Zac

"I know Isaac kissed a girl while they were watching 101 Dalmations and she ran home crying to her mom. I find out everything!" - Taylor.

"I don't tend to get girls as fans. I just get all the young guys and weirdos." - Zac

"Zac is the funny one, the crazy one, the insane one. He's very cool onstage. He's also got some sad, deep songs where you go, 'How old is he?'" - Taylor

"It's not like we're these child geniuses who woke up one morning suddenly able to write good songs." - Taylor

"Zac orders us around more than we do - he's behind the drums and everything and he can control us . . . what we do." -Isaac

"We get along pretty well. We're not like Oasis. We don't fight all the time." - Taylor

"Isaac's the hopeless romantic of the group, I'm the professional and Zac's just mad." - Taylor

"We're the long haired guys that look like girls." - Zac

"I think we're normal. I mean, what guy doesn't like girls?" - Taylor

"You go to a foreign country and hear'blah,blah,blah Hanson,blah,blah. It's weird!" - Taylor

"They need to invent portable washing machines...I miss clean clothes." -Zac

"It's an incredible oppurtunity, but at the same time you start to miss home." - Isaac

"It's really amazing to think, yesterday I was in Indonesia; today I'm in Canada...we' ve been all over Asia all over Europe. A lot of people never get to do that." - Taylor

"They also say were immigrants from Sweden, and that I used to have a girlfriend named Ashley who cheated on me, so I broke up with her. What's so funny is I do have a friend named Ashley, but he's a guy!" - Taylor

"Don't belive everthing you [see on the Internet]. I don't have a girlfriend yet. But if you live life, you meet girls. That's pretty basic." - Taylor

"People think of us as stars and we don't think we're stars at all, not even for a second!" -Taylor

"I think it's totally awesome that people want to talk to us. I just think it's so cool that people like us. Really." -Zac

"Peace,love, and bulletproof marshmellows!" -Zac

"Along the line of creation, everything evolves." -Taylor

"Hanson is three brothers, and we love making music." -Isaac

"Actually, I had to beat the crap out of Ike the other day." -Zac

"Part of what Hanson is, is that there's not just one guy who sings. Having three voices is what makes us Hanson." -Taylor

"It starts out with being sane in the first place." -Zac

"You're always being bashed for being the new thing." -Taylor

"It wasn't quite MMMMMMbop, and it wasn't quite Mmbop, it was Mmmbop....just looked good, three Ms and a bop." -Isaac

"We wrote a lullaby for our little brother. It woke him up." -Taylor

"Taylor's very good at being sneaky." -Isaac

"I bit my finger and it came off!" -Zac

"No, I'm not a girl, and no, I will not pull down my pants to prove it." -Taylor

"There's a weird fact that if you dropped a penny off of the Empire State Building in New York City, you'd kill someone. I feel really bad, 'cause I dropped a nickle off it once." -Taylor

"I've never kissed a girl, but I often think about it." -Zac

"Girls can scream at us if they want. We could get used to it. Hey, we could even learn to love it." -Taylor

"I draw cartoons all the time. When I get upset, I scribble too fast." -Zac

"When we first started out, Zac had some old drums that wouldn't stay still, and they would roll around stage. That was pretty funny!" -Taylor

"We play baseball....and instead of using a bat, I use my head." -Zac

"Some people make fun of Hanson. But you know what? I don't give a rip." -Isaac

"If music is what you do, and you love it, why would you be sad?" -Taylor

"Ike is a girl charmer. He'll always say nice things to girls. It's just something he does." -Zac

"Oh, I didn't know you cared!" -Taylor

"It's just so cool that all these people are dancing and clapping to your music." -Isaac

"Zac's the drummer, so he'll go, "I'm the drummer, I'll do whatever I want," so he'll speed us up, slow us down, whatever he wants to do." -Taylor

"A lot of our songs are really just created. You know, imagination." -Isaac

"I'm not that great a drummer, but everyone says I can play, so I'll take their word for it." -Zac

"We were always doing what we loved to do. We weren't worrying about what other bands were doing. We do what we do. And they do what they do. That's the way of the world." -Isaac

"There was always singing going around and music in our house. We just naturally started writing songs." -Taylor

"Our parent's didn't push us into this. This was our thing." -Zac

"All these screaming girls and guys going crazy, you just have to have fun with it." -Taylor

"It's a ton of fun to perform." -Isaac

"Zac just likes the fat statue." -Taylor

"Save a tree, eat a beaver." -Zac

"We just want to keep doing our music whether we sell one record or one million." -Isaac

"It's cool to have people respond to you." -Taylor

"Just think of us as old guys with high voices." -Zac

"I used to love tomatoes and I'd go around chanting 'Tomatoe Head, Tomatoe Head!' at people. If I saw a large person i'd shout, 'Big Tomatoe Man!' "-Taylor

"Fame? We get both sides- the 'Oh I hate you guys, you stink' side, and the 'You guys are so awesome'. The positive outweighs the negative by far." -Taylor

"We're gonna get really drunk... on Dr. Pepper." -Taylor

"I wanna buy everyone in the world a puppy!" -Zac

"Thou shalt have a frog in thy bathroom." -Isaac

"We're basically best friends... only bester!" -Zac

"We'll read about Notre Dame, and then go to Paris to see it." -Taylor

"Everything changes." -Taylor

"Girls definatly don't have cooties." -Isaac

" The funny thing is, all this can go as fast as it came. We're just having fun with it." -Isaac

"Water is good." -Taylor

"Hair is only big, if you've got big hair." -Zac

"That's very cool that she knows that. She must be on the internet." -Taylor

"I'm a romantic fool - I always end up getting hurt." - Isaac

"It's a little more strange than weird. We just liked the sound of 'weird' better." -Taylor
