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
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?
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.
"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
😆😆😆
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
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.
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!!
The head banging in the opening is everything
Right? That was the first thing I noticed, they are going hard af...🤘
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
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
once a freak, always a freak. love you, Silverchair
When i was 16 years old, I really liked this band Silverchair . Today i have 42 years old, and still like it.
Still banging away in 2024 at 59yrs young. Dedicated Aussie FREAK.❤❤❤
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.
His eyes are so beautiful...
Agreed
*his
Megan Jnx * her
I think you mispelled "face" as "eyes"
Yes, they are!
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😊
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.
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 freak"
"I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me"
"I'm a creep"
"Cos I got no self esteem"
90's is when the youth were so humble.
Or when they sang about depression
For those who what to know the songs:
1. Silverchair - Freak (obviously)
2. Beck - Loser
3. Radiohead - Creep
4. The Offspring - Self Esteem
“I think I’m dumb”
Nirvana :
-I think im dumb (Dumb)
-I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned (Negative Creep)
-I'm so horny, thats ok my will is good (Lithium)
-gimme back my alcohol - kill a million! (Scoff)
-I was stain (Stain)
And the song I hate my self and I want to die
I think Kurt was mr Depression
-
You forgot "my name is Mudd" 😂😂😂
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.
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 🤪😅
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!!!
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
When Daniel points to the camera as he says as cool as you is amazing
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 love how hard he head bangs in the beginning.
This one's just got a slick groove, love dirty grunge rock like this.
51 and I still blast this going down the road. They were so criminally underrated.
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!
Closest thing to Silverchair I’ve heard in a while … “Whispering Wolf” or “Seen/Unseen” by SLT 🤘🎸🎧
I agree with you, totally
Yo I ain't gay or nothin'
Silverchair embodied the 90's for me.
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
This type of music will get generations forever. I miss Silverchair ❤
The glory of fellow Australian rockers is insane!
This is a beautiful song on so many levels
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 :) !!!!!!
..
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.
Body and soul you're a goregous soul Daniel indeed 🌬🔥✨️ Epic band.
I'm a 94 year old grandpa and sheesh! This is dope!
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
body and soul i'm a freak
achei uma br ocultada :v
Eu amo Silverchair kkkkk
Aesuhaus é nois
então somos 3 kkkk
Todos somos
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!
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
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!!!
Daniel was the best headbanger of the 90s 🔥
STILL LOVE the heaviness of this iconic song!
Long live Silverchair!
Silverchair and Alice in Chains are easily the hardest of the grunge bands, more metal vibes to their music.
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.
One of my favorite songs from these guys. THIS SONG ROCKS!!
Cheers to Daniel coming to peace with his aching past and giving a lucky fan through a bundle the guitar he’s playing here 💓
House Of Blues Hollywood in 99. Incredible show.
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
Man these guys can sure rock
Closest thing to Silverchair I’ve heard in a while … “Whispering Wolf” or “Seen/Unseen” by SLT 🤘🎸
its 2023 and its still gold 🔥
Fr
The energy is so contagious!!!!
True
Closest thing to Silverchair I’ve heard in a while … “Whispering Wolf” or “Seen/Unseen” by SLT 🤘🎸🎧
I remember buying this album when it first came out. Hearing this makes me feel 10 again lol.
I don't know what you guys are complaining about, this is awesome.
Who's complaining?
Loved this in 97, still love it in 21! 😝
i missed the free silverchair concert in the 90s at santa monica pier :(

Saudades da MTV Brasil. Assisti muito. Esse foi um dos clips que mais vi nos anos 90.
Can't believe they got Pauline Hanson to feature in the video
I love you :'D
They got her because she's a freak :)
Dylan Moyle Ha
I thought it was julia gillard
Shore it as not Bronny.
1:03 that riff is HOTTTTTT
I used to call'em the Australian Nirvana 🤟🏾 what a song, never gets old!
Watch the anthem for the year 2000 and you'll know the real meaning of beauty
Babies got rabies
My favorite line
Fun fact I headbanged for the entirety of this song
2023 ❤
This is so good but you must hear "The Wave" or "Whispering Wolf" by SLT 🤘🎧🔥
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 ❤
still good to watch at 2016 ♡
This band will always be one of my favorites.
So simple...yet so perfect
copycat from the very famous song in the Philippines Laklak the Teeth released 1995,this was released 2 years after😅
0:10 : headbanging game strong.
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"
These kids ROCKED!!!!! And were treated unfairly by the "rock community"
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.
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 😆
After all of these years, I still rock the hell out to this song every time I hear it!!!!!
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 they need to bring this vibe back. The time has come
damn he's beautiful.
everyone is beautiful when they're 16 years old,,,,,, age is a curse.
shorebreak69 damn they were so young (Older than me). I'm sitting here in my 30s looking back though.
The drummer was also pretty :D
shorebreak69 I think he was 18 or 19 here though. This was 2000. The song was released in 1997 or late 96.
Overdrive If this video was shot in 2000, then they were 20. But why would they make a video for this song when their next album had already come out? (Neon Ballroom came out in 1999).
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.
From the 90s! Here we are now! 😃 25 years of this Track!
It's so good if it applies...it does to me. Listened to this as a teen
silverchair`s golden times
One of my absolute favourite songs! ❤️
Clássico!!! Ouvia quase todo dia no ensino médio.🙂
2:38 o fí da perte era bonito viu kkkkk
Imagine being that beautiful like Daniel Johns in this video omg
Used to have the biggest crush on Daniel Johns, still kinda do 😂
I was never a fan of grunge, but I always loved this song to death. I was very little when this song was trendy and back then my english level was below basic, I'm chilean and at that time it wasn't very common to speak english, however I still could pick a few words here and there and what I got was "I'm a freak of nature" and "If only I could be as cool as you" and for a nerdy middle class non stereotipicaly macho young boy (I turned out to be gay, LOL) that went to a expensive private school full of arrogant rich white kids those words stuck to my head and made me feel that I wasn't alone, that there are other freaks like me. It sounds silly but that's what it is.
This video used to creep me out the first time I saw it. But the song was very catchy
2024. We are all freaks of nature.
Maybe one day I'll be cool like you.

body and soul, im a freak ♡
I miss the 90s so much man....
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 😂
2019 and it never gets old. 90's forever!
I love how Daniel's eyes change color.
These guess inspired me when I was 14-15. First 2 albums are Stellar for a teen. I’m 40 and still listen to them.
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.
Highly underrated band
Listened to this cd soooooo fucking much back in the day, Still a top album in my opinion. Good shit.
This song is so relatable
AC/DC, Silverchair, The Chats...
Thank you Australlia
