[@L.R.KNIGHT]

Johns was always a serious musical artistic genius. His work ethic is unmatched. In 97, veruca salt and grohl talked about how they caught Johns doing vocal warm ups for hours before every show. He definitely worked his ass off to get to this level and beyond. I like the hard rock more. He does a lot of stuff that doesn't pull my trigger, but he's a master of everything he does.

[@oi5692]

I am 37 and I have had and continue to have the absolute pleasure of watching and listening as Daniel Johns evolves. One of the best qualities you can have, is the courage to express without inhibition, who you are, at any given moment. When you can do this, you're a success.

[@chaiTV]

Silver lining found! Sometimes inhibitions are a good thing. In this case they would have prevented him from performing the world's worst version of Teen Spirit. But you're right, we should focus on the positives by forgetting he ever did this. Success awaits... he just needs to take more acid and more time off.

[@avedic]

chaiTV Yes! Drugs always served Dan well. And I'm being 100% serious and non-sarcastic. I really hope he hasn't lost what made him such a joy to listen to. He's a musical genius....and I only hope he still has what he definitely once had.

[@MrZZsharka]

avedic Before Young Modern Dan said in an interview that he wrote an album but it was angry and didn’t want to do angry anymore so he hit the erase button. I really wish he hadn’t judged it as wrong as it probably would have been another awesome silverchair album without songs like Straight Lines or Greatest View which just about any idiot could write and way below what he can do. E.g. creating Emotion Sickness when he was still a teenager.

Daniel Johns is clearly poking fun at all those who used to dub Silverchair 'Nirvana in Pyjamas'. It's a bit of a piss take and he has done the song in such a way that it can not be compared to the original. It is an artist showing how much he has progressed in the last 20 years and for me it is a big thumbs up.

The problem is that people don't go to gigs to listen to "piss takes", they want good performances that sound good. He should piss-take on his own time, not that of a radio station that helped him get rich.

[@BrianPremo]

Most people (at least in the states) don't even know who Silverchair is. Any major following they had here died out a long time ago - so - I think it would be wishful thinking on Daniel's part to think that anyone even says Silverchair and Nirvana in the same sentence. Clearly has has nothing left to prove to anyone, so he can do whatever he wants but as a longtime Silverchair fan I don't even know what to do with this.

This was beautiful, soulful, distinct, heartfelt, connected and pure. If you can't appreciate it, that doesnt mean it sucks. Unfortunately for you it means as a consumer your tastes in music and ability to hear, distinguish and value new and compelling sounds has not evolved whereas Daniel Johns ability to produce such things as a musician has. The fry cook that used to make your quarter pounders at McDonalds when you were fifteen makes gourmet food now, but youre still getting your dinner 'Drive Thru' Do yourselves a favour, truly take a weekend off Maccas music, go and train your tastebuds to skill up. Take in some Jazz and ska, get some trumpets and pianos and clarinets and harps into your eardrums. Make sure you watch them live. And watch the energy they put into their instruments.

This is probably the most relevant cover of Daniel John's career... Of course he (along with the rest of Silverchair) was a massive part of the grunge-rock movement in the 90's, like Nirvana was. Those were great times for music and that is recognized by all the grunge fans out there - but it wasn't without it's causalities. Layne Staley, Mike Starr, Kurt Cobain, Andrew Wood, Shannon Hoon, Chris Cornell and so many more died from either suicide or substance abuse. The 90's happened and then they finished - music continued to evolve. This song is a retrospective at the last 20 years of the grunge movement. Daniel Johns chose to cover this song in this delicate way because of his own personal progression as an artist, but also as a tribute to all of the people that were, sadly, left behind at the cost of this movement. The fact that he is covering the song with piano, harp and high pitched vocals is a further testament to the "fuck off" attitude of the times. I'm sure he knew it was going to piss some people off, but that's just it. Honestly, how can you put more passion into a song than this?

The people who just harp on about how Silverchair were only good when they were grunge annoy me insanely. Have you not heard Diorama or Neon Ballroom? You'll have to forgive a 35 year old Daniel Johns for not giving a fuck anymore about the angsty music he made when he was 14. Like, what do people expect? That he will keep making the same song over and over again for 20 years? Grunge isn't even a thing anymore - it was the music of the time. He would just look stupid if he kept on with it. As Johns said himself, The Beatles went dream pop. Silverchair stops playing grunge and their supposed 'fans' lose their minds. Emotion Sickness, Across the Night, etc. Those are the true treasures of the Silverchair catalog. Grunge brought them to the dance, but it's where they went after that solidified them as an iconic act in Australian music and my personal favorite. This performance is beautifully ironic and people who are saying it can't hold a candle to the Nirvana version or that he butchered it or whatever have completely missed the boat.

I can't believe how many people in the audience are NOT cheering for this! Maybe the audio mix just has very little from the audience?

Hands down, Daniel is such a great artist.

Daniel just keeps getting better

My desire for DJ is to heal, ground, fill with light and sing from his heart and for us to hear him. ♥🙏
