I think this is probably the song you know, even though ‘I’m Just a Kid’ is huge and an important song for us right now, especially with the TikTok revival and all that, I would say ‘Perfect’ is probably ‘No pads, no helmets…just balls!’ The Essential Simple Plan song has really shaped our careers and I think it’s one of the reasons why we’ve been able to be just a band, like, something on MTV’s Top 40 that lasts a long time.

[Em ‘Jet Lag’], It was the first time we sang a duet with a female vocalist and she was really good. But ‘Summer Paradise’ opened the door for us to try different things and try different styles successfully; It was a huge song in Europe, number one in Europe, in Australia, in various places in the world. We were so successful with it and it gave us a second ‘push’.
