"You're not making a live record for everyone. Like, a studio record, you're making it as perfect as it can be and you're trying to get that out to as many people as possible. But the live record is more directed to the people who bought the studio record. It's not as much for a mass audience as for the devoted fans. The people who are traveling around the country after the band, recording your shows with their little tape recorders, who ask you, 'Will you make a live record, please make a live record'. That's who it's for."
--Zac

Q: "Do fans ever annoy you?"
Isaac: "We love the fans. They don't annoy us, but sometimes they scream really, really loud. The only time that the screaming bothers us is when we're trying to play."
Zac: "Sometimes we can't hear ourselves think."

*What Celebrities Say About Hanson*

Jon Bon Jovi (Bon Jovi)
"I saw those boys live in NYC! They're really talented! I'd like to take them on tour with us!"

Bob Weir (Grateful Dead)
"Hanson are the real thing. It'll be interesting to see if the youth of America want music that speaks to them and not for them, or if they want candy-coated horse sh*t."

Chris Kirkpatrick ('N Sync)
"I met them at Billboard a few weeks ago. I thought they were hilarious. They've got my mentality -- that ten year old mentality. We had a good time cracking up. There's a kind of mutual respect for each other."

M2M (music group)
"We really admire them. They do their thing, and they just care about their own music and not what other people do."

Clint Moffatt (The Moffatts)
"I think that when people compare us to the other bands, it's kinda strange for us because when they see us on stage, we're playing instruments, we're playing songs that we've written. But I think that when they compare us to Hanson, it's alright because they do everything, they co-produce their albums, they write their songs, everything musically they're involved with."

Brooke Satchwell (Big Hit magazine)
"My little cousin is an absolutely devoted fan of Hanson, so I'm kind of Hanson's press manager. I collect all of their pictures for her, so if people saw me at the newsagents they'd probably think I was a pretty big fan. I feel for the middle one because it's always tough for the middle kid. Is that Taylor? Yeah, I think Taylor's pretty cool. I don't listen to their music, though. I'm a bit of a golden oldie."

Divine (music group)
"We haven't met Hanson yet, but we're fans of theirs and we love their stuff."

Kathy Griffin (comedian)
"Not only do I like Hanson...I like Hanson in a boy-girl way!"

Donald Faison (Clueless)
"I want Hanson and Manson to do a duet together!"

Sean Holland (Clueless)
"Yeah, I like Hanson. The little one is cute."

Mickey Hart (Grateful Dead)
"You know, Bob's a funny guy. He has a strange sense of humor. He'll do anything for a laugh. And I got to tell you, Hanson, they are not bad players. Those kids can play. That drummer can play! So Hanson, shmanson! If they stay with it, someday they'll be great musicians. But Bob is funny, he'll let things happen, he's open to a lot of things. I thought it was amusing, myself. I saw those kids play. Not personally, but I saw them on a show, and they can play."

Anakin Skywalker (unkown which one)(Star Wars)
"If I could sing like anyone in the world, I'd pick Zac Hanson."

The Moffatts (music group)
"Hanson are cool. We like their music and we'd like to jam with them sometime."

'N Sync (music group)
"Yeah, we like Hanson. They're very talented."

Serena Altshul (MTV)
"Hanson are so adorable. I love them!"

Greg Alexander (New Radicals)
"I'm a major fan of Hanson."

Mark Hudson (songwriter and music producer)
"Those kids are so talented...it's frightening!"

Dave Navarro (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
"I'd like Hanson to fight Godzilla because they have so much power. I mean, their rock power is huge...and they'd kick Godzilla's ass!"

Meredith Brooks (singer)
"I first met Hanson in Japan and they gave me some great advice about the fans and they seem real down-to-earth kids. They're great."

David Hasslehoff (Baywatch)
"I'm a major fan of Hanson--plus my daughters love them. I have met them and their father...they are the nicest and most respectful kids I have ever met!"

Ravi (Hanson's former back-up guitarist)
"It amazes me how pure they have remained. What you see is really what you get."

Gus Van Sant (movie and music video director)
"They are fantastic. They are very smart and very successful because of their talent and perseverence, not just because they got lucky. Taylor has the charisma of a young prophet and is in love with people, and Isaac is the comedian...although Zac is pretty funny, too."

John Popper (Blues Traveler)
"It was fun meeting them and they showed real class and great courage coming out on someone else's stage and playing their hearts out. They played alot better than we did when we were their age."
"It was a real treat to play MMMBop with Hanson. Whether you like Hanson or not, that song has historical basis. Centuries from now, everyone will have to concede that back in the 90's. Hanson's music affected contemporary music. The boys were nice enough, humble, polite, etc. But I'd like to talk about their musicianship for a second. When we were their respective ages, we couldn't play instruments nearly as well. When I first saw Hanson on video, I remember feeling a little concerned for them. They are cute little blonde boys who will be chewed up and spit out by an uncaring and fickle teenybopper and radio-friendly audience. The reason this concerned me was that they seemed to care about playing their own instruments and writing their own songs. It is my hope that given enough time to interact with other musicians. As they get older they will continue to grow in their playing and their songwriting. I think they did a fine job--bravely walking on someone else's stage. A stage full of musicians who can really play and sell a hit song to a very skeptical crowd. What was weird for me was looking back and seeing young Zac behind the drums. Because he looked exactly like Brendan when he was thirteen and I first started playing with him. Quite the eerie flashback. Hanson has been both blessed and cursed for being cute in a teen idol kind of way. If I was them, I would milk it 'till the teat is dry. And then regard it as merely an introductory chapter in their musical career."

Zachary Ty Bryan (actor)
"I think they are great. And I really do enjoy the music."

Carson Daly (MTV)
"You've just got to love those Hanson boys. They're very talented, even when they were younger."
"Hanson attracted more people to our Times Square studio than Marilyn Manson and 'N Sync combined. And I didn't invite any of them."

Lance Bass ('N Sync)
"To rule the world I'd build a skate park and then invite Hanson for a skate party!"

Tia and Tamara Mowry (Sister, Sister)
"They are so cute and adorable!"

Dominique Moceanu (gymnast)
"I think their music is great, but I could never imagine them doing gymnastics. Especially the little one. He's hilarious. Maybe Taylor I could imagine gymnastics, but not the other two. It just cracks me up imagining it! Otherwise that...they're great!"

Stevie Nicks (Fleetwood Mac)
"MMMBop...ba duba dop ba du bop...I love that tune. It's just so catchy and real easy for me to sing to!"
"That little one is a kick-ass drummer."

Tom Hamilton (Aerosmith)
"Hanson makes some great music so we're happy to share the bill with them."

Chris Rock (comedian)
"I went to a Hanson concert the other night, and you know what? They can play!"

Jim Carrey (actor)
"I want to adopt that little Hanson brother!"

Scott (Five)
"Do you know what MMMBop means? It means Hanson!"

Steve (Jars Of Clay)
"Someone we know was talking to them and the older one, Isaac, said that he listens to us all the time and loves us. That really surprised us!"

David Duchovny (The X-Files)
"I'll tell you what song I like...but I'm embarrassed. I'm only going to tell you 'cause...oh forget it. I like that Hanson song, MMMBop!"

Billy Joel (singer)
"They're pretty cool. I'm partial to Zac because we act the same. But they will be around for a while."

David Gallagher (7th Heaven)
"Zac is, what, eleven? I've heard their songs, but I don't go Hanson crazy."

"I like Hanson. Especially Zac because he's the only one closer to my age besides their little brother, Mac."

Jim Bruer (MTV)
"It's always crazy when Hanson's around somewhere. Because the girls start screaming and trying to touch them and Hanson's just basically trying to get the hell outta there in one piece. I did see Taylor get his shirt ripped off, though. That had to be embarassing. But they are cool."

Shawn Colvin (singer)
At a post-Grammy 1998 party...
"I loved Hanson. I loved MMMBop. I loved it. How could you deny that? It just sounded great. And that kid can sing."

Darren Hayes (Savage Garden)
"Hanson are three...babies who make great music."

Matt Pinfield (MTV)
"All I know is that the Dust Brothers produced MMMBop. That's got to count for something, right?"

Brian Littrell (Backstreet Boys)
"We hung out with them for a while in the States and they were pretty cool. It's amazing how they all get along so well. If I was in a band with my brothers, I think I would have killed them by now. I can see the smallest one, Zac right? I could see him getting on well with Aaron."

Aaron Carter (singer)
"Yeah, I think they're cool. They're very talented. I wanna make a movie with them! I don't see them as competition because we make different kinds of music. Who's tougher? I think I'm tougher than Zac but the other two are pretty big. Isaac is...seventeen? I'm nine. Taylor I think might kill me! No! Just joking. I don't really think about who's tougher. I just like them.

Scott Wolf (Party Of Five)
His favorite song of 1997 is...
"Oh, definately MMMBop by Hanson. I think they are doing so well. And they're young! To write a song like that at their young ages, what they did is very cool. Credit to the lads."

Melanie Brown (Spice Girls)
"I met Hanson at the Top Of The Pops studio. I'm not really a big fan of theirs, but they were quite nice boys."

Jennifer Love Hewitt (I Know What You Did Last Summer)
"Awww, I think they're so cute! Even if their voices go bad after they finish changing they will still be extremely talented."
"I love Hanson. I really like MMMBop. I know all the words!"

Shannon Miller (gymnast)
"I love country and the Top 40, especially Garth Brooks and groups like Hanson and Sister Hazel. Whatever I listen to has to have a loud, upbeat rhythm to get me going."

Matchbox 20 (music group)
They want to meet...
"That kid! Yeah, that kid from Hanson! We're all about Hanson!"

Jonathan Taylor Thomas (Home Improvment)
"Hanson, yeah, I've heard of them. I saw them perform live and they have an interesting sound. I wish them every success."

Cleopatra (music group)
"We all love Hanson!"

Steven Jenkins (Third Eye Blind)
"I hate it when people say Hanson sucks...Hanson does NOT suck. They proved that at the Grammy's they can rock...face it people, bow down to Hanson, they rock and will be around alot longer than most..."

Nick Carter (Backstreet Boys)
On competition between the Backstreet Boys and Hanson...
"We have a completely different sound and look and image and whatever you have, and we do not feel like rivals at all. Case closed. We really do think that Ike, Zac, and Taylor are talented though--they are really what you call boy wonders. We are really happy for them--they have been working hard for like five years or more to get where they are--they are not the overnight sensation everyone thinks they are."

Rosie O'Donnell (comedian)
"Those kids in Hanson are so talented and cute. Someone should get them a sitcom."

Puff Daddy (singer)
"I think Hanson's gonna be around for a long time. I think that they're three great, talented young men and I think that what people need to stop doing to music is looking at everything in the negative. But people are trying their best. When I hear Hanson sing live, they have good voices, they play live instruments. I think they are going to grow as musicians. They are great entertainers and they have alot of personality...some clean-cut kids trying to have a good time. They sound like the Jackson 5 to me a little bit. They've got alot of soul to them."

Jay Kay (Jamiriquai)
"Ah, nice bunch of lads, totally different class, you see what I mean? The guys can sing. They can play. Good songs. They can all sing...got personality. They're brilliant, you know. I'd give it to them every time, you know? Well done. Brilliant. They deserve it. As for Marilyn Manson, God forbid Marilyn Manson!"
