Charlie: It was awesome!

James: I enjoyed the break times.

Mattie: I enjoyed doing stuff with my mates but I hated going to class and having to do work.

Charlie: Everything outside academic work was cool.

Mattie: There was nothing worse than double maths!

Charlie: When you're not bored in class school is so much fun.

Are you from a musical background?

Mattie: I was always a musical kid, I was a bit of a show off as well - my mum always used to say: "You're such a show off you're going to work in the music business!"

James: I'm the first person in my family to show a real interest in music.

Charlie: My musical side comes from my mum I think. My great, great, great grandfather was a famous composer in that era so I think it's passed down! I was always into music - I've wanted to be in music since I was very young.

Is What I Go To School For actually about a teacher?

Busted: It's about Matt's science teacher.

Mattie: I used to fancy my teacher. Everyone at my school fancied my science teacher.

Do you all play instruments?

James: I've played the guitar for over a decade, the piano for a few years and occasionally I play the drums.

Charlie: I've played the guitar for 11 years, drums for six years and bass for five.

Mattie: I play the bass and the guitar.

Who would you like to do a duet with?

Busted: Justin Timberlake or Michael Jackson.

Charlie: We'd love to do a duet with Justin Timberlake - he's got an amazing voice. The harmonies and the ad-libs - he's got such strong vocals.
