So what if he looks stoned? So what if he looks like he was crying or he's about to cry?! That doesn't make him any less the great creative musician that he is! Daniel Johns FTW!
He said in 35 seconds things most singers today (or even yesterday not saying) can’t say in a 12 minutes interview. That just blows my mind he’s brilliant, his view on music really is the greatest. (haha)
Melts.......everything about him is like poetry.....perfect poetry.....he is beautiful and he sounds beautiful..........Thankyou Daniel for sharing yourself with the world, we would like to see and hear more from you please XXX
I really wish that he would release their music instrumentally in addition to the album with lyrics...He has an amazing voice, but the music really does tell a great story...
I discovered him only about a week ago, and just fell head over heels in LOVE. His eyes and voice drive me crazy! I really enjoyed listening to all the Silverchair albums so far. Diorama in particular! My goodness what a beautiful man; so complex. I just feel bad it has taken me this long to find them, seeing that they have disbanded. Anyway, he's a great artist in the truest sense of the word. I'm looking forward to a lifelong love affair with his music. He is so fucking hot too! Damn!
I know your comment is from 8 years ago but I had to reply because I could have written this myself, word for word! I knew who they were back in the day but a week ago rediscovered them and realized how amazing they are (and Daniel is!), also agree about his eyes and voice, and Diorama! He's the most beautiful man I think I've ever seen.
You don't need to analyse his lyrics to know whether he's heart broken or not, it's written all over his face... Dont'cha just wanna pet him and tell him it's all gonna be ok? Oh Daniel, cheer up, we love you! =)
You are perfect as you are and your art stands alone. You don’t need to have to explain yourself. Everyone hears and sees with different eyes and ears. You can’t change how art is received just know we love yours. Don’t ever stop creating. We are here for it. 💜
I was checking the comments..and God people..you're amazing..not in a good way!! I'm a lonely SC fan here in Portugal for 18 years and i only had the chance to travel to London to see SC... Daniel is one of the few people that i admire as an artist..yeahh he looks like he's stone..so what i look like i do drugs and i'm not..so stop judging people if you dont know them..i thought is been so honest in this video..cant you see that? besides thinking is is gay or straight or bi or he's into drugs or...he's one of the little number of famous people who could maintain is private life as private he could..and even SC is off and he's doing some other projects wheter i like it or not he's doing what he wants and i think he's always trying to pushing his own criativity to the limit and i congrat him for that!! He's one special m**f*** :D
Ana C. Hey ana.. thank you for your kind words..like for real.. Ive been a fan of Silverchair since i discovered their 1st album frogstomp. My sister and i enjoy it very much. ( 90s era..man what a year. !!!! )Theyr everything to me, after diorama i didnt hear anything from them ..year after years i started to listen to other bands. Then, i came across youtube recently to know whats up. So I ended up with straight lines mv. Im shocked. But theyr sounds soooo good LIVE show. Thx to the 3 of them.. i like them all...still.. but i dunno how to express my feelings towards their new materials and daniels new styles. I feel sad but i just dunno what makes me sad. #iheartsilverchair
his whole section is quite interesting - daniel is a true artist and you can tell by the way he speaks about music and his process. i happened to see it at the bookstore, ripped it open, read it slowly then ran out of the store! lol i can't afford 60 bucks right now but i literally squealed when i saw it at barnes and noble, and next thing i new i was sitting in a corner reading it. i might have to sneak back and read some more of the book, it looks like a really good read.
Don't get me wrong, I think he's great....I was just responding to someone's earlier comment that said he looks like he's stoned. He's a great artist. I might have to pick up this book....it looks very interesting.
@yehmary the book this video was shot for.. Music the book by andrew zuckerman. Great great read. Daniel's part is very insightful and lets us in on his songwriting process a little bit, and talks about what music means to him.
Daniel Johns: Even looking like Daniel Johns' homeless fraternal twin brother who looks nothing like how Daniel looked, fangirls will call him attractive.
Yes, clearly. Making an accurate observation means I'm jealous. Man, I've gotta get into the music biz. Gotta be nice having the most defensive fans on the planet.
@buddhagirl311 The book entitled MUSIC by ANDREW ZUCKERMAN, there's a film that goes along with the book, however this clip didn't make the film. He does appear in the film two brief times. The book is a good read and the film is interesting!
Is he okay? If I didn't know any better I'd say he's showing signs of Parkinson's Disease. His head keeps shaking uncontrollably throughout the video. Either that or he is high on cocaine or having withdrawls from some sort of drug. It's really sad to see Daniel in this state. I hope he gets better soon.
***** I think she's right, I remember with his last silverchair album Daniel hit the delete button after almost completing the first draft, because he didn't want to make angry music any more, so made happy music instead (Straight lines single was bullshit) this denied his true expression at the time (didn't honer his own feelings) no wonder he became more depressed after that and took up smoking ciggies etc.
***** I honestly think it's the lights. They look bright as fuck and glare across his eyes, he's probably trying not to blink too much which makes his eyes water a bit but really the lights make them look more twinkly than they actually are so that makes them look teary too.
1) He is a Genius. 2) He doesn't look depressed. Neither Diorama, Young Modern and his new work is related to depression topics. That was like 16 years ago, and ended. HE LOOKS, BAKED. HE LOOKS LIKE HE SMOKED MARIHUANA FOR THIS INTERVIEW and I don't see anything wrong on it, and I'm not going to excuse that either. He rooks. Period.
yeah no kiddin'! short hair?scruffy facial hair?!eye liner?!..even his voice sounds diffrent?..i think somone is "pretending to be Daniel Johns"! LOL...:)
Do you ever go on fact, or do you just make assumptions all the time. I'm a big Silverchair fan. I just think Daniel's lost touch with what his fans want. And no, genius, my original comment was that he's far from looking his best anymore. And if you think these fansgirls aren't going on looks, you mustn't have been paying much attention back in the 90's.
Dude, he's gay. Listen to how he sounds and his mannerisms. He may not have officially announced it publicly, but he sure as hell is not trying to hide it anymore in his actions, speech and body language,
Uh huh. So you're basing things on your opinion. And clearly, this video is a STIRLING example of Daniel's mind, music and personality. Because from what I can tell, *those* went south after Silverchair got back together in '06 as well. Face it, sweetheart. The man ain't what he used to be.
He is so beautiful. I hate how often the word 'beautiful' gets tossed around, because he is truly beautiful!
say what you want... daniel johns is brilliant... period
So what if he looks stoned? So what if he looks like he was crying or he's about to cry?! That doesn't make him any less the great creative musician that he is! Daniel Johns FTW!
"I'm an artist, man. Sometimes I fuck up."
He said in 35 seconds things most singers today (or even yesterday not saying) can’t say in a 12 minutes interview. That just blows my mind he’s brilliant, his view on music really is the greatest. (haha)
U mean he has the greatest view? 🤨🤨
Melts.......everything about him is like poetry.....perfect poetry.....he is beautiful and he sounds beautiful..........Thankyou Daniel for sharing yourself with the world, we would like to see and hear more from you please XXX
I really wish that he would release their music instrumentally in addition to the album with lyrics...He has an amazing voice, but the music really does tell a great story...
Damn he's torched, looks at those red glossy eyes lol. Great artist though.
I discovered him only about a week ago, and just fell head over heels in LOVE. His eyes and voice drive me crazy! I really enjoyed listening to all the Silverchair albums so far.

he is so stoned/drunk hes slurring here lol but his eyes are so beautiful ;)
I'm stoooned sitting in my bedroom spinning! :D
You got me stoned*

Well Done.
Pensei que era o único português fã dos Silverchair!! Obrigado pela companhia 😉

I absolutely love this man💛💛💛

daniel you are magical. you INSPIRE me.

Andrew, do you -by chance- have this whole interview?
Daniel looks like he is high out of his mind XD
his whole section is quite interesting - daniel is a true artist and you can tell by the way he speaks about music and his process.
i happened to see it at the bookstore, ripped it open, read it slowly then ran out of the store! lol i can't afford 60 bucks right now but i literally squealed when i saw it at barnes and noble, and next thing i new i was sitting in a corner reading it. i might have to sneak back and read some more of the book, it looks like a really good read.
My man, I hope in 11 years you gathered the money to treat yourself. Greetings from the Future.
Imagine being daniel johns dealer
I am the third...but I own the book ;) I just love listening to his soothing voice, especially when he's talking about his work.
so stoned... :)
Haha "sometimes I fuck up"......nice daniel!

Good to hear this because sometimes I puzzle over his lyrics trying to work out wtf he’s on about
I love u Daniel

fucking hell. I love Daniel.
man this is fucking the way
@whenroutinebites Shallow, much? I think he looks fine.
@101thedestroyer yeah, I hope so too
@Barefoot67
and for a second opinion i think we could ask Julian Casablancas in his Studio4a video
Don't get me wrong, I think he's great....I was just responding to someone's earlier comment that said he looks like he's stoned. He's a great artist. I might have to pick up this book....it looks very interesting.
@yehmary the book this video was shot for.. Music the book by andrew zuckerman. Great great read. Daniel's part is very insightful and lets us in on his songwriting process a little bit, and talks about what music means to him.
Sometimes, for example young modern
🧿❤️
all of the latest dan's videos i saw he was drinking beer or whatever alcoholic drink it was...just hope he's all right
Daniel Johns: Even looking like Daniel Johns' homeless fraternal twin brother who looks nothing like how Daniel looked, fangirls will call him attractive.
@101thedestroyer how do you know? It's horrible looking at him now, he looks terribly troubled D:
Yes, clearly. Making an accurate observation means I'm jealous. Man, I've gotta get into the music biz. Gotta be nice having the most defensive fans on the planet.
His eyes look all glassy and he looks all confused and sad D:
stoned
oh no! the Mary bracelet...
@buddhagirl311 The book entitled MUSIC by ANDREW ZUCKERMAN, there's a film that goes along with the book, however this clip didn't make the film. He does appear in the film two brief times. The book is a good read and the film is interesting!
write some new songs, record them and play some shows pleeeeeease!
@mrmeanero haha, yeah look at those eyes man
@101thedestroyer aw :c I feel really bad for him :'(
Ditto:)
He is definitely stoned. Look at his eyes.
He's incredible, regardless of what disgruntled UA-cam commenters say. . . (i heart you forever DJ
hahah i actually didnt notice (i smoke myself) until reading the comments then replay;d. HE IS WASTED. Please don;t die Dan we need you mate!
Is he okay? If I didn't know any better I'd say he's showing signs of Parkinson's Disease. His head keeps shaking uncontrollably throughout the video. Either that or he is high on cocaine or having withdrawls from some sort of drug. It's really sad to see Daniel in this state. I hope he gets better soon.
who thinks that he seems like jack sparrow???
Not anymore ... been a while they divorced.
And you base this on...?
@mrmeanero ROFLMAOOO!
Fuck your comments about him ,for me HE'S PERFECT!
HES FUCKIN STONED!!!!
It's called hard drugs. That will do it.
The band broke up years ago.
lol
He has reactive arthritis. It can effect the eyes during a flare up.
As for gay, he's got a hot new Asian girlfriend!
@valdivia562 so did I
how the hell do you know that? he clearly isn't.
Wow, he does look stoned! I wonder if he's a little messed up these days...
This is super depressing. You can see complete pain in his eyes. :(

This is really sad to watch :/
Oh please, stop making excuses for the man. He's clearly on something here.
@fiatemWswiat he wears makeup
