You're just these kids from a small town. You get a record deal, and everything just goes so fast. In the span of five albums... in a way, the band that you started in your bedroom, or your basement or your garage, kind of becomes not your band anymore. It becomes something bigger than you could have known. No one really prepares you.

I've always been obsessed with girls.

Good Charlotte, for us, comes from a place of youth for us, back when we were struggling and fighting for every inch, just trying to get by.

Good Charlotte, for us, comes from a place of youth for us, back when we were struggling and fighting for every inch, just trying to get by.

A lot of our fans have grown up, but they've stuck by us for the songs that dig a little deeper.

All of our lyrics are really personal, and we get a lot of personal letters.

The songwriting process is different on every record because you're never coming from the same place when you're writing.

Good Charlotte became more than a band and more than the songs: it became something that the fans owned.

As a kid, you're like, 'Do they have Preakness everywhere or just in Maryland?' You hear people talking about it, and it was like, 'Oh, everyone goes there to hang out and party.' I didn't even know it was a race until I got older.
