The Wanted are still a bit shocked by their success in America

  • April 27, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Despite being managed in the US by the pretty influ­en­tial Scooter Braun, banter botherers The Wanted still seem surprised by their success 'across the pond'.

"We could never have expected it," Jay told the BBC. "We knew how much we liked it ['Glad You Came'], but it's not even like the most complex or the most deeply crazy song, it's just a nice song that people like listening to."

Not complex?! There's that bit where it goes, "the sun goes down, the stars come out".
