Lyrics:
No more maybes
Your baby's got rabies
Sitting on a ball
In the middle of the Andes
Yeah, I'm a freak of nature
Yeah, I'm a freak
If only I could be as cool as you
As cool as you
Body and soul, I'm a freak
Try to be different
Well get a different disease
Seems it's in fashion
To need the coldsore cream
I don't really know
How to put on a 'cool' show
As boring as they come
Just tell me where to go
If only I could be as cool as you
Freak
#Silverchair #Freak #FreakShow
For being 15 years old when they started touring the U.S, they absolutely owned the concert goers the entire show....15...years...old. FREAKing amazing
Just incredible
They are Australia
This is so good but you must hear “World” or “Cage” by SLT 🔥🌎🔥🌎🔥
I'm a grandma, 50 years old, and I'm STILL rocking to this song! 🤟
Noice
I’m almost 13, and rocking out!
Hell YEAH!!
Freak 😉
so you were like 25 when this came out?
This was my shit! I use to sing this song everyday in High School. No one back then could understand why as an african american I listened to rock music. I use to get shit for it wearing my Nirvana shirts, but I just kept it moving. I still very much into rock as I was back then.
Kudos to you man!
Rock. The fuck. On! Doesn't matter what colour your skin is. We've all got ears.
+Dan Workname-well said!!!
Mrs. RockKitty Hey! Thank you. I'm all about the human race. We're all the same, I tell my kids that. We bleed the same blood when we're hurt. Cry the same tears for our lost loved ones. We're all human.
Cheers, fellow human!
That awesome.
54 and still love silverchair, long live metal/grunge music
i'm 54 , still listen
This guy in the band and what they did is incredible... Sometimes I forget they were just kids. But they definitely had old souls
truth
2:30 That epic metal sounding palm mute is why I've always loved this song as a guitarist
I come for the beginning
Yeah I know what you mean my boy sounds rad !!!!
ua-cam.com/video/UyTLzUBDzYY/v-deo.html
U gotta hear this :) !!!!!!
Word. Love that simple but effective solo, too.
Daniel is so much like kurt, insane vocalist, way to smart and famous too young but even younger, And isnt a virtuoso but added some hard rock and heavy metal vibes, his play style reeks a lowkey Metallica fan and ive always loved it.
"Body and soul, I'm a freak," says one of the prettiest men to ever live.
Hi I recommend a new indie song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
He kinda looks like a woman, a really beautiful one
Hes talking about plastic surgery
@@danielvieira2933 I came here to make that point
i dont think it was his appearance he was singing about...
I'm 63 and this Band kicks butt. I listen to this before I run Stadium Steps. Silverchair and POET the Band would be one killer show.
I always liked silverchair’s heavier side. The clean parts are beautiful also and when the band is going hard. 2023 this song is still a banger !
lmao, this song is the most generic grunge i've ever heard of my life. It's literally being Nirvana and not even being embarrased about it
Instead of being a freak, he should have sung about being a thief. But hey - the sad part is is that they DO have really good songs, just none of them as popular as this blatant ripoff.
@@RazorsharpLT 🙄
This is so good but you must hear "The Wave" or "Whispering Wolf" by SLT 🤘🎧🔥
Silverchairvana !
To Razorsharp: it's true that this song sounds a lot like Nirvana but they were young teens influenced by them and i dont think it was such a bad thing. How many bands were influenced by The Beatles or The Rolling Stones ? The song is very good, no matter what, i would say.
I’m so glad I found Silverchair
Me too
Found their retired now...where have u beenlol jk ...my gosh boys.. the 90s was all good ..make sure u try anthem for the year 2000
Master Debater It’s better than not finding them and hearing to other crappy music
Make sure you listen to their Frogstomp album. Its the heaviest, and they were only 15/16 years old.
Eric Severson oh word, thanks!!
fun fact the guitar he's playing is one of the rarest guitars in the world
Wow
Jackson Roswell 🙄
For real?
@@heathermiller2623 that's affirmative +/- $8000 for the aluminum solid body that he's playing in the video. Theres cheaper versions of it though.
@@kevinfuller2739 cool beans !11😊
When i was 16 years old, I really liked this band Silverchair . Today i have 42 years old, and still like it.
Im 42 and fell in love with then at 13. ❤ Daniels voice in intoxicating ❤
16 years old and just found them. Plan on doing the same
why is every guy from this era the hottest person I've ever laid eyes on
surf styled hair , the from Newcastle 180km north of Sydney
Maybe because he sat on a "silverchair" and got a magical energy that changed him into a lady prince! xD
nah that's just Daniel johns for you
No Homo
Probably just healthy but seriously they had some pretty gorgeous girls too. The lead actor in labyrinth? You don't see that kinda pretty anymore
Cuz anything in this era is shitty looking
I’m a bit stunned. Was I too busy listening to Alice In Chains and Pearl Jam to notice that these guys rocked?
Alice In Chains might be the greatest band ever so you were okay to miss out on Silverchair lol. They were cool as hell though for like 5 years
Johnny Appleseed I only just heard freak now. Only knowing straight lines previously. Damn these guys were Aussie grunge. This song is great!
All the grunge bands rocked. You gotta remember more unknown bands like mother love bone, tad, Melvins, Green river, Meat puppets, Screaming trees etc were the first pioneers of "grunge" yet they get few recognition....
Sènor Yoda yeah I agree. And mudhoney also super underrated
@@thisnamedosntmatter2u352
Definetly
This one's just got a slick groove, love dirty grunge rock like this.
I'm a brazilian 41 years old and still listenning Silverchair, nowadays with my 10 years old pianist son... Long live to grunge!
Somos 2 mesma epoca
I love how hard he head bangs in the beginning.
once a freak, always a freak. love you, Silverchair
51 and I still blast this going down the road. They were so criminally underrated.
They stopped writing music and quit morphing theyr art into the future.
How was Silverchair underrated? They were huge 20+ years ago 😂
The head banging in the opening is everything
Right? That was the first thing I noticed, they are going hard af...🤘
Check out their performance of slave in 1997 in Germany I believe. I thought his head was gonna fly off his neck 😂
First 20 seconds Daniel is doing the best headbang while playing guitar I've ever seen in my life!
i always would think he might get his hair caught in the guitar strains or hurt his neck because he headband so hard. lol.
I tried that once and got a headache for my troubles 😂
Gotta say that I'm not the biggest fan of Silverchair, but they don't deserve the shade that has been thrown their way. Their music has aged quite well and this is my fave of the bunch...especially the transition "body and soul...I'm a freak, I'm a freak." All respect to this day
Bro this part is everything! "Body and soul, I'm a freak" Daniel Johns sings these lines with an intense feeling of guilt and maybe sorrow. It convinces you that the character does feel like he's a freak or something like that.
This is the very first time I listen to any of their songs (their singles were never released in my country), and though their inspirations are very clear, I think this is quite a solid song. I don't know what hate they got back in the day, but maybe the issue was that they were too similar to a sound that had been popular 5 years earlier and that music spot (the "angsty/depressed rock") had already moved on with new sounds like Korn or Smasihng Pumpkins? I'm basing all this only on this song though
I always love their rock story. They were this young band who won a record deal in a radio show thus the making of frogstomp which is a good record. May not be reinventing the wheel of rock but the song writing was tight. And to be considered a good band that’s good enough and how young they were when they made that record, it was impressive. And the fact that they never had a line up change, same 3 childhood friends stayed loyal to the band for nearly 20 years is inspiring.
I don’t think they won a record deal, I think they just got to have one of their songs recorded and music video made! And they got huge with Tomorrow.
ua-cam.com/video/cxuYKH0TJ0I/v-deo.html U gotta hear this!!!
The suite is even more wrecking, highly considering the actual state of the band is foggy, not together but didn’t split up.
ua-cam.com/video/UyTLzUBDzYY/v-deo.html
U gotta hear this :) !!!!!!
..
I am 45, now.. and still a freak.. of nature.. (of silverchair)🙃
Hi I Recommend a Song that's called 'Life Changes' By Robert Nix
Today in Australia it is Daniel John's Birthday. Happy birthday Daniel! I went to several silverchair concerts back when this incredible song was out and they were some of the best live performances I ever experienced in my life. Still love silverchair!
Body and soul you're a goregous soul Daniel indeed 🌬🔥✨️ Epic band.
Every time i scroll through social media and see people with their ghetto fabulous lives and don't have to work for a living, this song comes to my head.
His voice is outstanding
Hi I recommend a song and video entitled: 'In Isolation' By Robert Nix
check out Stageminus "seen it all before" !
Looks like her
@@facelovemehe’s beautiful
So simple...yet so perfect
Silverchair embodied the 90's for me.
Don't let yourself be fooled, they are actually playing in normal Australian weather conditions...
Dam right
🤣🤣🤣the copious amount of tears that were formed at this comment can’t be explained
Ahhh ok I was guessing South Florida in the summertime🤷🏼♀️🤘🏼
ua-cam.com/video/cxuYKH0TJ0I/v-deo.html U gotta hear this!!!
Fuckin oath mate
When Daniel points to the camera as he says as cool as you is amazing
The glory of fellow Australian rockers is insane!
This is a beautiful song on so many levels
This could really go down as the most badass grunge if not the most badass song ever. 3 Aussie boys with an insane raw power and talent…ABSOLUTE FREAKS! 🪑🥈🤘🏻
Hell yes
They aren’t grunge. This is post grunge.
His eyes are so beautiful...
Agreed
*his
Megan Jnx * her
I think you mispelled "face" as "eyes"
Yes, they are!
20 years ago does not seem to be a long time ago when The lead singer of Silver chair sings. I forgot about this song now I will play it as much as I can. Thank you Sliver chair.
It's not that long ago. Humans just don't live as long as we like to believe we do. 10 years can go by pretty fast.
Eventually they'll extend human life spans though and it'll totally redefine how we perceive time.
STILL LOVE the heaviness of this iconic song!
Long live Silverchair!
One of my favorite songs from these guys. THIS SONG ROCKS!!
Daniel is literally the most beautiful man I've ever seen.
he’s still beautiful in his 40s he aged really well
@@really6697 agreed!
You gotta see me
Beautiful soul too.
@@moonriseillusion 🤪😅
I have discovered my favorite band through this clip back in 1997. Silverchair means so much to me. I couldn't be who I am without it. That's my roots. I am forever grateful
Once I start listening to Silverchair I can't stop!
Silverchair is the cure after Nirvana...
love you Silverchair!
Sounds like it
Hell no lmao
simplenoise after silverchair, the cure for them both is dinosaur pile-up.
And I love Daniel johns?? No homo
Nah, nirvana is better
We needed Silverchair so badly again in 2022 and forever.
@@cristobalpaineo3907 Nirvana No podemos tener más a cuenta de que Kurt Cobain se suicidó.
ua-cam.com/video/UyTLzUBDzYY/v-deo.html
U gotta hear this :) !!!!!!
Too bad the singer turned into a gay fruitcake
Iloveyou NI ❤❤❤
This is future music but at the time we didn't fully understand the 'freak' value
Haha 😂
Speaking out of your arse again?
Haven’t you forgotten?
speak for yourself... my buddies and i were freaks, and referred to ourselves as such back in the day. not from this song, probably was a derogatory thing and it fit, so fuck it. didn't really fit in any one box. might be a little goth. emo-ish or skater punk one day, and if somebody messed with us, we'd fuck em up instead of go cry and write poetry or somethin. still remember when frogstomp came out, and i was immediately hooked. but we were ahead of the curve.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I don't know what you guys are complaining about, this is awesome.
Who's complaining?
My god Daniel was such a gorgeous human being!! No wonder I was absolutely obsessed with this band as a teen and completely in love with the singer!
Shhhh go and watch Are you Afraid of the Dark, Catdog, Kenan & Kel, All That, Clarissa Explains it All, and Goosebumps.
He looks like Leelee sobieski
X2
he surely was cute then.
@@billbombshiggy9254But prettier.
Grew up in Newcastle with these guys was lucky enough to see them a few times in the school hall smash it out before they got huge..great memories
OMG. your so lucky. =-)
Man
Back to back great albums by these guys
The energy is so contagious!!!!
True
Closest thing to Silverchair I’ve heard in a while … “Whispering Wolf” or “Seen/Unseen” by SLT 🤘🎸🎧
I am not gay, for what that's worth (not much, when all's said and done), but seriously - how can you be this ridiculously good-looking AND this talented at the same time? Its not fair on the rest of us!

I agree with you, totally
Yo I ain't gay or nothin'
Wicked ❤
Loved this in 97, still love it in 21! 😝
Nirvana - I'm a Negative Creep
Radiohead - I'm a Creep
Silverchair - I'm a freak
These people self-esteem is Savage 😂
ALICE IN CHAINS - WE ARE AN ELITE RACE OF OUR OWN, THE STONERS JUNKIES AND FREAKS.
What about the alcoholics....we get no respect from our fellow addicts!
I think all 3 song are great :D
@@benburndred2226 that's cause alcohol makes you feel kinda good for a little while then gives a hangover and it's not worth it. Benzos also mess with GABA and are way better.
"You are your worst critic"
After all of these years, I still rock the hell out to this song every time I hear it!!!!!
Daniel was the best headbanger of the 90s 🔥
Listened to this cd soooooo fucking much back in the day, Still a top album in my opinion. Good shit.
This song has a powerful msg that is relevant to the way the world is going today. I wake up more and more every day, and I hope more people are doing the same. Peace to all the good people out there.
I was 10 when this song came out. I always liked it because I have hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) and in this clip sweat is a desirable commodity. Made me feel better.
im a freakk!! i might have that myaelf
Some people like this you know, a lot! Crazy huh?
@Leonard Frankel I have erythrophobia--they're like cousins ;)
Lindas muchachas
Lmao grunge doing everything for u 😆
Silverchair and Alice in Chains are easily the hardest of the grunge bands, more metal vibes to their music.
Alice In Chains by far heavier than those two and this song sounds very similar to Grind
Man these guys can sure rock
Closest thing to Silverchair I’ve heard in a while … “Whispering Wolf” or “Seen/Unseen” by SLT 🤘🎸
Saudades da MTV Brasil. Assisti muito. Esse foi um dos clips que mais vi nos anos 90.
"If only I could be as cool as you" - the coolest guy ever
Omg! I miss so much my teenage time! of course that doesn't mean the school time only the coool music :)!

Imagine being that beautiful like Daniel Johns in this video omg
One of my favorite Silverchair music videos and that one taken from their rehearsal studio. Slave, Abuse Me, The Door, No Association, Cemetery, The Closing and Learn to hate are my other favorites from Freak Show album. With so much ♥️ from the Philippines.👍✌️🤘😉
The vocalist is better looking than most girls I've ever seen
Edit: No homo lol
Like Hanson lol
You forgot to add the mandatory "no homo".
He could wear a bra and a skirt and would look fabulous! Better than Justin Bieber in my opinion!
Crystallization of the soul to conclude; young daniel johns makes an attractive guy AND girl
Thank god im not the only one lol
Silverchair at their best. This is when their music had balls!
He's playing one of the rarest guitars ever made: Jackson Roswell Rhoads aluminum!
Dude I know nothing about guitars...I know nothing about you... but somehow I know your telling the truth👍👍
@@Boulos-cb2un haha thank you, bro! Here my channel trailer 😊😊 ua-cam.com/video/8zxgtbyxx40/v-deo.html
Alessandro Arzilli see...I knew it!!!
@@Boulos-cb2un thanks n.23
I have a rarer one. My Dad's PS: Comment sent with love ❤
This video used to creep me out the first time I saw it. But the song was very catchy
I'm 43 and 4 beers deep and my neighbors are getting a taste of my youthful music taste's. You're welcome 🫡
Time for them to learn what real music is haha 😂
Bro, how did I even not know this band yet at all? Like wow 🤯🔥
A banda mais subestimada do grunge. Só hoje eu vejo que supera o Nirvana 😮
I used to call'em the Australian Nirvana 🤟🏾 what a song, never gets old!
Still banging away in 2024 at 59yrs young. Dedicated Aussie FREAK.❤❤❤
Body and soul
What a blast from the past.....I heard this song when I was missing Nirvana back then.
Hi I recommend an indierock Song called 'Life changes' by Robert Nix
My teenage dream was to marry Daniel since i couldn't i became a crazy cats lady hahaha
+Cris Ane and i think he's gay, so he is kinda a cat lady too :P
+Nicolás Riveros Daniel Johns is NOT gay! He even said so himself, he stated that if he were gay he wouldnt try to hide it or anything. Plus he has a girlfriend right now. He's not gay.
oh well my my sitake, a friend of mine said to me some time ago i thought he was. Chill out nothing personal :P
Nicolás Riveros I am "chilled out"... I was just proving my point.
lol how did that work out
I miss this music!!!!best band ever!!and daniel is so handsome 😻💚
They should reunite and play all their grunge tracks. I would attend the concert
definately my fav silverchair song awesomeness !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He is such an underrated guitarist, lyricist & vocalist. Silverchair will rock on forever in my heart❤️🤘✌️😎 Helping me feel better during corona🤩
One of my absolute favourite songs! ❤️
From the 90s! Here we are now! 😃 25 years of this Track!
Last time i hear this song was in the early 2000 (00/01), couldn't remember it was Silverchair's. Good to find it again.
awesome rock track from my childhood, i love silverchair, and i am a freak a rock freak.
I'm a 94 year old grandpa and sheesh! This is dope!
I was a teenager when this album was released, I got it on release day. I can't remember missing a day since that day that I have missed listening to this song the moment I wake up. That is the first thing I do every morning.
Ahh q saudades eu tenho de vir correndo da escola só p assistir top 10 MTV, e vibrar qnd Silverchair entrava... nessa época não tinha tanto acesso assim aos vídeosclipes, tínhamos q ficar atenta a MTV p assistir os clipes favoritos, e hoje posso assistir quantas vezes quiser! 🤗🙏🏻
Silverchair e foda demais adoro freak💕💕💕💕💕💕
Tempo bom❤
Bons tempos
Bons tempo
Era desse jeito, já tinha que gravar no vídeo cassete os programas da MTV, só assim pra ouvir e ver quantas vezes quisesse kkk.
The headbanging is amazing here 😂
i tried it in my shower, needless to say i had a horrible headache 3 seconds in💀
@@DemonSemenator lmao please don’t die in your shower from slipping
2019 and it never gets old. 90's forever!
These r the type people i would wanna hang out with
And yes....he is the most staggeringly beautiful human ever. His teal blue eyes. Pale skin. He’s stingy with smiles,so when he does flash a (sarcastic) grin,my jaw drops. And host to be clear- I’m in love with freak show/neon ballroom💕💕Daniel. He was still a baby when frogstomp came out...but wow two years later-he became a magnet. Mesmerizing and magical.
Wow power stuff. Powerful track
Silverchair fez parte da minha adolescência bom demais os mlk mandam bem segue freak
Clássico!!! Ouvia quase todo dia no ensino médio.🙂
2:38 o fí da perte era bonito viu kkkkk
Wow!!! Love the video. The album cover has the kid from the X-files vampire pizza boy episode.
Closest thing to Silverchair I’ve heard in a while … “Whispering Wolf” or “Seen/Unseen” by SLT 🤘🎸🎧
What did they put in the water during the 90s.. everyone’ was so photogenically attractive
Truee!
What we now refer to as "standard definition".
To begin with every one seemed healthier we are all fat now lol
I guess there was more riding around looking for friends? Like, if I can't get anyone on the landlines or snapchat I'll go on a mission but I can usually track somebody down.
ua-cam.com/video/cxuYKH0TJ0I/v-deo.html U gotta hear this!!!
1997 headline: Grunge power trio rock star sweat turns old woman into alien.
LOL 😆
I'm imagining Kurt Loder doing a whole investigative article on this!
Sounds like something that would happen in Australia.
ua-cam.com/video/cxuYKH0TJ0I/v-deo.html U gotta hear this!!!
Finalmente encontrei!
Tava procurando desde que ouvi na radio da minha cidade
This band will always be one of my favorites.
Silver Chair is awesome - they should have had the same success as the 4 super grunge groups
One of the most beautiful boys in rock history 😍😍😍 he is gorgeous. And that guitar sound is intense
