5 Seconds Of Summer have come a long way in a short space of time. Following the release of their number one single She Looks So Perfect back in March, Ashton, Calum, Luke and Michael set the album charts on fire with their self-titled debut, and scored a support slot on One Direction's Where We Are world tour.

With their own headline arena tour announced for June 2015, you can get a taste of what to expect from a 5SOS gig by streaming Live From MTV: 5 Seconds Of Summer tonight - July 21st - at 7.30pm (BST) at http://5SecondsOfSummer.mtv.com. While you wait, check out what the boys had to say about fans, dating, dating fans and Ariana Grande in our exclusive interview below... 

MTV UK: What kind of gifts do you get from your fans?
Luke: 
Most of my T-shirts come from fans.
Ashton: They've got good fashion sense! We always get a random few pizzas delivered to the house every now and then too.
Calum: They feed us, they clothe us; it's like having lots of people taking care of you.

MTV UK: What's the craziest thing your fans have ever done for you?

Ashton: We were playing at this house in LA and some fans found out where we were staying. They sent male strippers to the house.
Calum: We thought someone was trying to break into our house!
Michael: They rocked up to the front door and one of them was trying to peer in with a light.
Ashton: Then we looked closer and he was wearing really tiny pants…
Luke: He was very buff.
Michael: We also used to have a plastic dog named Ketchup in that house and as soon as we left the fans broke into the house and stole the dog.

Hey-hey, hey-hey
Hey-hey, hey
Hey-hey, hey-hey
Hey-hey, hey

Simmer down, simmer down
They say we're too young now to amount to anything else
But look around
We work too damn hard for this just to give it up now

If you don't swim, you'll drown
But don't move, honey

You look so perfect standing there
In my American Apparel underwear
And I know now that I'm so down
Your lipstick stain is a work of art
I got your name tattooed in an arrowed heart
And I know now that I'm so down

Hey!
Hey-hey, hey-hey
Hey-hey, hey

Let's get out, let's get out
'Cause this deadbeat town's only here just to keep us down
While I was out, I found myself alone just thinking
If I showed up with a plane ticket
And a shiny diamond ring with your name on it
Would you wanna run away too?
'Cause all I really want is you

You look so perfect standing there
In my American Apparel underwear
And I know now, that I'm so down
I made a mixtape straight out of '94
I got your ripped skinny jeans lying on the floor
And I know now, that I'm so down

Hey!
Hey-hey, hey-hey
Hey-hey, hey

You look so perfect standing there
In my American Apparel underwear
And I know now that I'm so down
Your lipstick stain is a work of art
I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart
And I know now that I'm so down

Hey!
Hey-hey, hey-hey
Hey-hey, hey

You look so perfect standing there
In my American Apparel underwear
And I know now that I'm so down (hey!)
Your lipstick stain is a work of art (hey-hey)
I got your name tattooed in an arrow heart (hey-hey)
And I know now that I'm so down (hey-hey)
(Hey-hey!)

MTV UK: Why was the dog called Ketchup?
Michael: It just felt right.
Ashton: First name that came to mind.
Michael: I miss that dog…

MTV UK: Have you ever had any negative fan experiences?
Calum: Only when people chasing us almost get hit by cars and stuff like that. It can get quite intense and we never want anyone to get hurt.

MTV UK: Would any of you date a fan or would that be weird?
Ashton: It wouldn't be weird at all. They're normal people.
Luke: Yeah, fans are just people who happen to like our music.
Ashton: It's a bonus if your girlfriend likes your music, definitely not a downfall.

MTV UK: Would you date a girl who didn't like your music?
Calum: That'd be hard…
Michael: Only if they had a proper reason.
Calum: Yeah they'd have to have a really good reason for not liking it!
Ashton: It would be a bit awkward to be with a girlfriend who didn't love what you do.
Michael: I don't think anyone wants to date us anyway. Girls don't really like us.
Ashton: If you're into death metal that's a good reason not to like our music.
Luke: Nah, like if they understand what we do, but if it's just not they're vibe… that might be okay. I'd be a bit upset, but I'd get over it.

You're like perfection, some kind of holiday
You got me thinking that we could run away
You want I'll take you there,
You tell me when and where,
Oh oh oh oh

But then I asked for your number,
Said you don't have a phone
It's getting late now,
I gotta let you know

That everybody wants to take you home tonight
But I'm gonna find a way to make you mine

Don't stop doin' what you're doin'
Every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room
You got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it

You're coming close now, swear I can taste it,
You got me tongue tied, I can't escape it
I'm loving what you got,
But then you push me off,
Oh oh oh oh

And everybody wants to take you home tonight
But I'm gonna find a way to make you mine

Don't stop doin' what you're doin'
Every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room
You got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it

Every day it's the same, love and games that you play
Back and forth, round and round, kinda like it this way

Don't stop doin' what you're doin'
'Cause every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room
You got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it, know it

Don't stop (don't stop, stop what you're doing) doin' what you're doin'
('Cause you know that, you know that I like it)
Every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop, 'cause you know that I like it (you know that I like it)
Every time you walk in the room
You got all eyes on you(all eyes on you)
And you know it, know it, know it

Luke: Ellen DeGeneres. I think she's wonderful.
