Freak (Live @ MuchMusic)

[@Dierk200185]

The vibe of the 90's in one vid

[@UKNOWIT88]

that vocal effect on the chorus sounds awesome

[@MsStormcrow]

First song I ever learned to play on the guitar. Easiest song to play ever! I miss old silverchair.

[@vidmohit4684]

This song is so raw. Daniel's vocals were amazing and I love how Ben hits his cymbals so bloody hard!! Takes me back to my teen years haha

[@Leanniette]

ooohhhhh yeaaahhhhhh

[@ms.lisamurphy269]

Leanniette there you are! Hi L, I’ve sent an email or 2...hope all is well...and your dad is on the mend. I have an l-o-n-g email in my draft mail I add bits to here and there for you-That email still good right? Will try to finish it up & send soon. Take care sister silver chair. 🦋 P.S I read Dans engaged to be married...”maybe babies (with no rabies) soon!” Yes that was corny. I’ll own it 🌽🌽🌽

[@jules8159]

@@ms.lisamurphy269 I love seeing the same people all the time it feels nice 🤞🤍

[@alyssatomlinson3095]

He sounded just as good in the music video that's how you know he had/has talent 😊♥️!!!!

[@Lapointe420b]

Alyssa Tomlinson i agree he could def sing , they were fuckin awsome

[@Vincent4Life90]

This is THE BEST SHOW EVER. Anyone who has the full concert should reveal themselves and send it to me.

[@mcgarnacle21]

Thumbs up to the audio guys for this, sounds awesome.

[@debbielynn6291]

Heck I was a Mom in my 40s during 90s and I rocked out to this! 62 and feeling 30...hehe...still rockin' to. So good! Bummed I never saw them live😔. Body and soul I'm a freak.....

[@jslucky200]

Every band evolves with time no band stays the same

[@Darvana-]

I wish all these so-called Silverchair "fan's" would stop having a go at Daniel Johns and putting him down because he decided to try his hand at making a different style of music from the early Silverchair material!!. Other bands/artist's do it all the time - especially if they've been making music as long as Daniel/Silverchair. Although I agree their 1st 2 albums were their best (IMO). Did ppl want/expect them to still be writing/playing the same style more than 20yrs later?. They would have been accused of just bringing out the same style album-after-album!!. Talk about dammed - if-U-do and dammed if-U-dont!!

[@HF1600ie]

Very good comment.

[@scottbailey1560]

People get older, like The Beatles in the early 60s, they split up in the early 70's all of the fab 4 had a different sound. As of this post, Paul and Ringo still alive making music.

[@scottbailey1560]

You have to make a change or your audience and fans may leave you. I learned early in my early 20s, not everyone is going to like you. He just needed a change to be himself, express another side of his talent. Self rewarding! Take it from a man nearly 60 years old.

[@MrZZsharka]

I think mentally he just couldn’t do it anymore. I heard him say in an interview that he taped an album of songs before young modern but hit the delete button cos he didn’t want to do angry anymore.

[@jules8159]

The last sentence is just it. Really. People would be complaining to god they’re making the same style. Listeners have to realize they’re second. The artist first. In a way I’m kinda glad these so called fans got filtered away, I just wish the wouldn’t complain under every video and just stay quiet.

[@scottbailey1560]

I will be 56 in May. I love this band and song! A Real Active Rock Sound before Heavy Metal came around in the late 70s/early 80s!

[@Sentinelsucks]

Happy Belated birthday, Scott! I’m a 80s metal fan myself. Bands like Metallica, Megadeth, and the first couple Slayer albums are what made me wanna pick up guitar. Then I started getting into 90s alternative and the grunge sound like Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, and the like. I’ll be 21 in July. Keep Rocking good sir! 🤘🏻

[@jerdel33]

This guy has a very good voice

[@madazza]

The best Headbanger guitarist vocalist ever!

[@jottax.21]

The public its so calm and the theme its so heavy xdd

[@asuraa_3171]

Wish i was there& close enough to see the gorgeousness of Daniel johns

[@the_stoned_investor]

This song just kicks all kinds of ass

[@sixstrings1490]

I read the reference to Curt Cobain, but Daniel nails the content. Great Songwriter. I wish I was playing lead guitar with this band ! 🎵🎸

[@Spaceboyzero]

The drummer is wicked!

[@CherCobain]

Absolutely beautiful.. C'mon kids, get playin this music these days :) (not sayin it doesn't, but hell, needs to be recognised more in my opinion)

[@HunterOliveri]

Seriously

[@jeffreycorcoran3021]

To the guy who says that australian audiences are 'fucking shit' - this performance was in Canada.

[@krashd]

Jeffrey Corcoran Australian audiences in Canada are fucking shit!

[@spirituchocarrero]

Rob Fraser jajajajajajajaja ggggggggg

[@madeintyotpc7007]

Well watch bizzare festival

[@HunterOliveri]

One of my fav live vids ever

[@mitorbetty]

that is really a guitar sound straight out of hell!, so powerful, absolutly forkin great, wish i had his pedal and amp!

[@stcywll]

I'm old enough to be his dad there, but they fucking rock

[@mikemiller4810]

sound is great!

[@taylorteddy2921]

Such a good live.

[@arielmillang6909]

Yeaaaah im a freak of nature

[@GUEROF24]

this is one of the best live performances I ve ever seen. high school memories partying ImI

[@Lemonhead86]

why is the audience just standing there? how could you not go apeshit and jump around? that was amazing.

[@randygarcia1982]

Awesome song!!!

[@TheNinzkie100]

1 of my best band cOllection!!!!

[@kurt5000yh]

Great Band

[@andresaduarte9526]

My love daniel 💕

[@zuko25]

Just a heads up to those who are unaware, Silverchair called it quits in 2011. Although they called it quits with grunge/alternative etc. long before that...

[@knottyboy20]

what a fking wicked band, these guys were writing rock/grunge gold at like 13. Best band out of aus (yeh its a big call)

[@ryanblack7392]

Great song.

[@BlackTeddies]

Wow awesome live.

[@kirkhammettismydaddy]

i don't know how to explain it but he looks so mature here. like he does not look 17.

[@kirkhammettismydaddy]

or sound it

[@fmcnally]

his hair is fuckin awesome

[@FernandoDornelles4321]

epic performance

[@HunterOliveri]

Anyone have the full concert?!

[@rayito2005]

He said Es un exito.

[@ant0586]

this is awesome

[@Vincent4Life90]

Friggin mad man.

[@knottyboy20]

@HoodedSword yeah Daniel Johns has grown immensely as a musician and so he should. His new music is so complex, he has Hans Zimmer on his records ffs. Bands who try and repeat old flames just burn out and they just end up being their own tribute band. I loved his old stuff but asking him to keep writing music in that style is like asking Da Vinci to do stick art.

[@revolutionize017]

fucking awesome voice! so grungy.

[@NRD_614]

I believe him

[@netskiman]

Kicking my ass for not going to see this, so close to home.

[@amandaleal6747]

Sou fan de silverchair

[@amandaleal6747]

[@Jacksmusicshack]

AMAZING BAND!!! great shite good influence :)

[@brandonsexywhitaker]

[@eror3931]

[@juciejose6276]

Amo a porra dessa musica puta porrada silverchair ainda vivi para os esquesitos

[@Ozfan5000]

1:34 Cartman sings for a couple of seconds

[@gmerola2652]

This is silver chair not what they become ! ❤️

[@cupcake3mo]

@syamshaunary actually it was from freak show

[@Luckyman187]

the crowd simply doesnt MOVE

[@faeriifloss8842]

"Body and soul I'm a fridge" 1:27

[@alleykat311]

I actually have this whole show on videocassette somewhere at home. I'm trying to figure out how to transfer all my concert videos to DVD before all my tapes wear out. :(

[@BitternessBarbie94]

I had the biggest crush on that boy when I was 15. I must go google search what he looks like now.

[@Filipe_Canzian]

Frances Moon He looks like a gayest version of Justin Timberlake now.

[@madeintyotpc7007]

Yeah no

[@madeintyotpc7007]

+† Belphegor † And were both behind a screen doing not

[@DopeyPorVida]

hes on facebook his music is great check him out

[@jessicaribeiro4618]

He is like wine getting better with the time.

[@jameyinegypt]

Great track sooooo Nirvana sound all over it from early to later day material. 9/10

[@Valemustaine]

Try to be different or get a different disease, Seems it's in fashion to need the cold sore cream...

[@janarnold5569]

Yep and it's such a pain in the arse especially as a muso with a different backround. For me as an example it has been quite a bit to find the right band to play in. I love to play stoner and doom and you don't find many blokes or even chicks whose are really into that style in the first place and on the other it's even worse to find people who play that shit proper you know. I'm really glad that I found two crazy sumbitches in the closer settlement but I can tell ya damn well that it's been a fuckin hard piece of work to get to this state. The bottom line is: This sort of music or the rock attitude of the 90s in general is a matter about jammin and gettin the right feel for it. It's so much more alive than any mainstream shit of today. Today you got kick arse quality, kick arse equipment , kick arse labels and kick arse opportunities but it's just all clean n serene. It sounds cold , emotionless and sterile. I'm better off with my old Les Paul, a fuzzed off his face Big Muff into my old Orange cranked. Come on what else do you need?

[@ismail-ws2fr]

he was 16 yrs old at that time

[@babesinmusicland8875]

Who cares? Still practically a baby! Age when songs were written? 14!

[@upiiiiiiinginamooooooo2179]

Nah actually 17 coz his birthday is on april

[@seasonalmommy7173]

I really though these guys were gonna be like the next nirvana.... Boy was I wrong

[@madeintyotpc7007]

things happen

[@demondrug7788]

they were very similar

[@madeintyotpc7007]

+Standard Guitar Channel Daniel reminds me of Hanson I guess the looks

[@jessicaribeiro4618]

Thanks God they weren't.

[@rozzie101]

I thought Silverchair's first 2 album were very grunge like....

[@Macgyvernr1]

@foootos Yes they do

[@H4RM0N1C5]

Genius. fuckin genius

[@amobsb21]

silverchair was good silverchair is great

[@fabricioabarbosa]

Honestly, I love these performances that many bands execute in the beginning of tjheir career...They're so similar to the album version...I don't know,maybe because they are afraid to try a in different way. But I love it, that's for sure (same goes to Pearl Jam).

[@frake5000]

Hayup na boses yan...anlupit mo talaga IDOL!!!

[@ronaldoinacio7291]

Muito foda essa musica!@

[@MrBolshi]

I dont think they copied nirvana at all. They dont sound the same at all i think. The only thing in common is there genre and the lead singer has long blonde hair.

[@DVDL1907]

1:33 Black Grunge

[@ShitBagProductions]

@boyoverfried49 yeah thats fuckin GRUNGE!!

[@janarnold5569]

They sound like a mix from Nirvana and Soundgarden. But I like that music

[@demondrug7788]

ikr

[@rozzie101]

Grunge music rocks....

[@coopsnz1]

It's alternative metal song . But the classified as a grunge band

[@sarondiesel588]

It sounds like they were the first post grunge band. Post grunge is stuff like Seether, Staind, Three Days Grace, Creed, and many more. It like Grunge didn't get the credit it deserves. The only post grunge songs I can think of that broke into the mainstream appearance is Rockstar by Nickelback, and a few Three Days Grace songs.

[@scottbailey1560]

I really didn't catch on to Grunge Rock until these guys came around. I was still listening to Ozzy, Ted Nugent, Cheap Trick, and Deep Purple. I'm that old!

[@LulaBertoldi]

piel de pollo. aguante Silverchair carajo mierda

[@Parka90]

eaaa token este cover con eruca! ;)

[@ciro7483]

Te amo lula

[@DBHEcho]

anyone know wher eyou can get a cd / mp3s of this whole show. no chair show before or since can step to this, the audio quality, the vocals, the bass, the crowd, its all about as perfect as an underaged girl who cant speak english and doesnt know right from wrong that has an oral fixation

[@shimmercoconut]

It's hard to accept the newer stuff silverchair has released...I personally prefer it to their teen angst, anyway it just boggles my mind at what a gifted composer, singer, writer and overall musician Daniel has turned out to be. I understand why he is exploring so many different genres, sure ppl may not like it esp Young Modern but YM is really courageous b/c the chair brought back melody into music. Even if you don't get YM and its not your thing its still stylistically brillant

[@knottyboy20]

Big call again, but Silverchair are Australia's best export. Steve Irwin & Croc Dundee made Australia popular but made us seem like Occa Bogans. Silverchair made Australia cool. Sh*t, how many peeps grew the hair long and got the eyebrow ring after this.

[@giovannigangale7803]

People should know that its pure show. 🚭

[@syamshaunary]

@justhavefun94 - Frogstomp!!

[@JustinWilliamson1985]

@jake100xx You do know Silverchair called it quits right? You say you're 14 and a vocalist and guitarist. I'm 26 and I started when I was 14 doing the same shit you are doing. Did the grunge thing for 10 years playing out all over and it was fucking fun don't get me wrong but you do reach a point where you decide to grow. Sometimes just pleasing others isn't good enough. I got a home recording studio and started doing things I always wanted and not caring what others thought. It will happen to u

[@Jacksmusicshack]

i want to cover this song...and put choris on the part where he says body and soul

[@jake100xx]

@jrwaneurysm yh man i started when i was 13 im making a grunge band i have like 15 songs. but mabye when im older you could be right. but i wont end up like the crap as straight lines but mabye more of like a blues or latin influence. i still love santana

[@fubarthekow]

I wish they can go back to this style, back to their roots dammit!

[@OptikC]

@hugofernanades As in the vocal effect... like I said. I think it's just a rotary reverb sort of effect.

[@KevinD7]

*Neo clone is the effect name

[@MrBolshi]

@GrungeMetalRocker YEAH for actually agreeing on youtube for once

[@felipexploited]

É nesse tempo prestava mesmo !

[@tagacale1733]

Name 3 sixteen year olds who can grunge harder than this. I wait

[@Clapptimus]

I wish the I don't really know part he did in this was in the studio version 😢 I hate it everytime I hear it haha flat every time

[@bakerperkins9152]

Fucking legends

[@Jacksmusicshack]

just saying....some bands change cause they want to they dont care about what people think :P

[@heatherdumas]

@MrAussiechampion I always tell everyone I'm a silverchair fan. A huge fan! I beg them to give 'em a listen. But I recommend anything before Young Modern first lol. If I were a dude, I'd tell 'em Silverchair rocks and to kiss my ass haha. I actually like their new music now. I started forcing myself to listen to it. And it's catchy. I still think rock should rule the world. But if you think about it, their music after Freak Show begins to blend all kinds of music. And I really loved that, so...

[@jake100xx]

@LantaGem i understand what you mean i could have used better words but behind the screen im really not angry, just seems it when i type.

[@VM38]

as a huge grinspoon fan, i thought their transition from heavy, grungy stuff to poppy radio material was a drastic change, but man.. that first riff is possibly the most metal thing i've ever heard. indeed, very different from that straight lines shit.

[@SaucisseMerguez]

6 years later i would add 'Madman' as a heavy metal song

[@AICnSP4EVA]

no vid has ever rocked harder.

[@pedskon]

@MexicanSeadude couldn't agree more. I love Nirvana more than anything else, and it has been my favorite band for quite some time now. But i must admit that Silverchair is amazing, and they have their own sound, yes they make music that may remind you just a little of Nirvana, but i really think they kept their own personality and soul. They are anything but rip-off's they fucking rock
