Samu Haber, Leadsänger, Gitarrist und Gründer von Sunrise Avenue kommentiert die Entscheidung der Band, sich zu trennen, wie folgt:

“It is with a heavy heart that I have to announce that we have decided to end our journey together as a band. I understand why it may be difficult to understand why we are ending something so special. But behind all the success are a lot of things that can’t be seen. There are many different people, all with their own needs and desires. There are millions of dotted lines along the highways, lonely hotel rooms and homes far away that we miss. There is also the feeling that we have achieved everything that was possible. Now it’s time to take a deep breath and live for the next dream. We just have to dare to follow our hearts. And that’s what we are now doing after much consideration."
