Silverchair - Emotion Sickness (Young Modern Launch)

Silverchair perform an awesome rendition of "Emotion Sickness" at the Launch Party for their new album "Young Modern"
thanks to narc85 who i got the video of this show from!

[@silverchair82]

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G... one of the most intense & powerful version of Emotion Sickness...

[@laurelhardymarx]

Still one of my favourite songs all these years later. This performance is magical, like Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, and Led Zeppelin had a baby.

[@lambdaphi874]

Johns playing was impressive, very dark sense of melody to his riffing. I liked where he took the song, I've always considered it one of their better pieces. It flows well yet has very distinct sections and a great dynamic. Johns never gets the credit he deserves, amazing writer too.

[@backhurts]

best rendition of the song, i never thought it would have a better live version..

[@embracethechaos]

From age 15 to 23 nothing has changed. Still gives me the shivers. Nothing but love for Silverchair :)

[@seriouslyfreaky]

This and Miss you love are like the best songs ever written, in the history of music. fucking best band ever!!!

[@philthymcnasty27]

Their sound just keeps on getting better as they mature. Paul Mac adds the final touch. saw them @ the Tivoli. Exceeded all expectations!!

[@HungarianMafioso]

I really like what Paul Mac is playing during Dan's solo from 2:28 - 2:58. It sounds like he's just slapping the keys at the low end of the piano. Sounds so cool.

[@rocksim2024]

Silverchair forever

[@tagga92]

3:23 till the end sends tingles down my spine. its amazing how a few musical notes can do that to a person.

[@sssrcr85]

I think instrumentally and vocally the stables version is the best with this one coming in second. Both have amazing guitar parts.

[@JenBleedsMusic]

This performance was f$ckin great. Glad to seem them back as a band.

[@TyrionCypher]

Such a great Band!!! Have spent so many awesome hours listening to that music!!!

[@RockOn21Sarz]

That was amazing. he's gotten better at live singing since their last live dvd. I love this man!!!

[@BLueEyeButterfly]

@Yeaahright - true, and it's all made him who he is today. therefore it's a modern version of the song. i completely agree with you about dan's guitar skills, and the guy is way musically gifted; his talent isn't something you can just learn. his ability to express his emotions through music never ceases to amaze me, and is the main reason i love his music so much. *he* is amazing.

[@supernova7848]

Aurora Daniels ❤️❤️

[@ThePsychopathicPug]

I'm just happy he's not semi-suicidal anymore. The songs he composed ten years ago are still evolving with each performance, which I believe is a good thing.

[@BLueEyeButterfly]

they rocked it. i respect how he leaves out the 'get up' part because obviously the song is very emotional and means a lot to him, yet he isn't in the same place he was when he wrote the it. and that part was full of pain... and would probably be painful to sing. kind of like how he does ana's song differently. it's understandable and the songs are still just as good.

[@VHSMIDIA]

love this intro, perfect !!!

[@justinman114]

for real, the "get up" part is like the best part of the song!

[@wendellefeitosdecorativos5784]

Melhor versão de Emotion Sickness Live

[@avedic]

wow! very shocked. i didn't think they actually could perform ES better than they had in the past. i was...wrong. what an amazing band.

[@chairlover721]

this song never fails to send chills up my spine

[@peavey2]

his voice is just great! love this performance.

[@Yorgolicious]

Think in their place man,it's impossible to sing negative songs a whole liftime, if you aren't sad anymore and if you like silverchair,you just have to accept it man you never know what their next album may be,look at the foo fighters do you want them to be like those kids from Tokio Hotel? these songs have a meaning,a different emotion,a different story,but always so poetic.Just learn to enjoy their music,the sound of his voice,his guitar,the lyric,the bass,the drum.You have to feel it man!

[@xdeathtobirthx]

By far the best performance of this song thevy've ever done.

[@AoiSora603]

This is by far my favorite performance of this amazing song! :)

[@RobertoDeAlmeidaTeknosoldiers]

spectacular as always...the best band in the world

[@srvfan04]

[@mattandallthings]

Love the later live versions of this song. Daniel plays around alot during the songs "lull" with guitar. Every version is a little different.

[@dAMnbEvErLy]

greatness.

[@yvesgomes]

Check out the one in Sao Paulo if u haven't yet. It's also very good and the audience makes the difference.

[@blularkspur]

i feel like crying. so emotional!!! @.@

[@emaricon]

great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MelisJoy]

I agree this performance was amazing & one of my faves also! That had to suck for them tho having such a dull crowd.. but this is such a serious song, so sad yet beautiful all u can do is just stand there in awe ;O

[@SheaBearden]

ahhhhhhhh......thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@boywonders]

[@xRainboxBabex]

Amazing...

[@wickerxman]

Great song.

[@pangoo4425]

WOW! best performance ever.. daniel johns is god.. and Paul is a great addition to Silverchair!! LOVED IT!

[@jeyael007]

amazing

[@garner1234]

if u havnt already, type in 'silverchair sao paulo' and watch the first one, in my opinion it is the best live performance for emotion sickness.

[@Satine002]

awesome!!!

[@doorsilver]

Neon ballroom their best album

[@wendellefeitosdecorativos5784]

4:15 I miss that time Que saudade desse tempo Silverchair

[@valenecia]

perfection

[@dontplayformenero]

very good performance

[@fmcnally]

his vocals have changed so much

[@jer1901]

awesome solo.

[@nameherelalab5301]

YESSSS

[@blissmanu]

my god... this is just awesome !! :'(

[@Jason_Music]

their best song ever

[@shahn78]

One of the best version right after the Live from Faraway Stables and Rock AM Ring! Would love to get the CD from this gig!

[@mick6990]

you expect them to get an entire string section on stage to play one song, everytime they play? it's not practical and it sounds just fine on keyboard, this is one of the finest versions of emotion sickness i've seen and trust me, i've seen a lot

[@garner1234]

yea i agree

[@druhyzmysel]

that effect is digitech whammy it is not about distortion but pitch (one octave higher)

[@Mir_alien]

❤

[@UniQueLyEviL]

LOVE!

[@addmelolz]

i can;t believe he still has that guitar!!

[@MsStormcrow]

hell yes

[@CarriesNo1fan]

Me, too.. I was patiently waiting for it, then he didn't do it :( I really hope he gets his voice back (like on the "Take the world upon your shoulders and burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn or Like I found a four leaf clover part in The Lever) He is still an amazing vocalist, but damn it I miss that grrrrr he used to have.

[@SiriusTexra]

Neon Ballroom was their "Disintegration".

[@lollies91]

This was an Album launch so the crowd is littered with media, record label people, competition winners and other randoms, which might explain the non rocking crowd. Awesome performance though, it's right up there as one of my favourites.

[@silverlite74]

Sao Paolo is still the best IMHO , by far. Dan was just so into it in 2003 at that time! It's like he was in a trance and put me into one, permanently!~

[@gustavocjnunes8149]

Pesado essa versão

[@inmytree29]

good stuff

[@07SuperchargedSS]

the best version ever is emotion sickness live melbourne park 1999. even better than the cd version. its perfect check it out

[@Oblivion255]

FAIR CALL MAN, RESPECT.

[@Tesla_Death_Ray]

omg 3:50 i HAVE to kno what those 8 notes were, i need to see it tabbed, i need to learn it and i need to play it all fucking day

[@garner1234]

if u havnt already, type in 'silverchair sao paulo' and watch the first one that is there.

[@Paulski1902]

Um, Paul Mac worked with silverchair on 3 of the 5 albums. *eye roll*

[@puursuitofhappyness]

ammmmmaaazzzzziiiiinnnnnggggggggg

[@erving25]

@blueeyedbutterfly no the part where people should scream is the climatic get up part. it's not only that he doesn't feel the same but more of the fact that alot of fans need to come to the realization that he simply can't do the snarls, low pitched vocals anymore he tries to but it often comes off as nasally i've been studying his vocals for about 3 years now. there's no hint of the old johns in there. even when he does the new songs he sounds so tired. but hopefully he can get back into shape

[@erving25]

@ blue-eyed-butterfly. The crowed doesn't suck it's him. It's his job to get the crowd pumping, he simply can't perform his old songs with the same feeling as he used to. Lol I don't care how many times he gets down there to twiddle with the nobs during the climax, no one ever says get up. Maybe he should say it like twice the let the crowd take over.

[@ms.lisamurphy269]

Good Lord- these comments were made when Daniel was the ripe old age of 30!!!! Y'all talk as if he is ready for the old folks home and using a cane! There is a tangible element missing however-can't put my finger on it -maybe it was the fact that he seemed okay with being vulnerable and just laying in all out there. You didn't have to decipher his lyrics/songs-no silly metaphors about fish (Nirvana )

[@Tesla_Death_Ray]

listen to "sleep all day". he's still got it

[@benjimanwells]

He wrote the song so basically he can do whatever the hell he wants with it.

[@nativebrother]

Sao Paulo 2003 is by far the best version of this song I think.

[@ElliottErnst]

What guitar pedal is that !!!!? 4:17

[@margaretharrington3170]

Looked up the lyrics incredible juxtaposition

[@keithGasm]

HOLY FUCK EXPLOSIVE

[@jer1901]

rock am ring's show is awsome too.

[@FaintestFusion]

fucking amazing.

[@BLueEyeButterfly]

@wtfitsdaveyj a) that's the best thing about being a musician. it's his music and he can do whatever he pleases with it. the people who are paying to see them accept that it is an art form. it's not like they work at a grocery store. b) why do it? for the fans, and because it showcases their talent as a band. the song itself has evolved throughout the years with the band and has become one hell of a crowd pleaser if you ask me. oh and what's wrong with that? i thought they were getting paid to.

[@ravage238]

what are you people smoking who are complaining about the vocals? He sounds fucking beautiful here.

[@BLueEyeButterfly]

ofcourse things he wrote with his 18 year old voice aren't going to sound the same at 30. that's what's so disappointing about not touring diorama right away. his voice is constantly changing and he writes vocals that work for him then and there. about YM: i love it, but hey to each his own. i'll reimburse you for your copy and give it to a random person. honestly i don't love freakshow. but that's a good thing, diverse sound = diverse fanbase. can't we all stop arguing and just get along?!!
