  • What a great great song!!!

  • so so true.

  • ...'when you want no one and you got someone'...

    :)

  • They ghave changed the music from 2002 until now. It sound's like alternative music not much more like grunge music.

  • awesome song,

    really takes me back

  • the fungus in my milk! so strong daniel!

  • ah man, this song makes me smile....

  • muy paja!!

  • Great Song.............

  • aww i used to love this song when i was younger.

  • I heard someone say Dan resembles a male Keira Knightley. I agree.

  • Oh my god! He really does. haha

  • haha ur complety right!

  • I think all their records have some great songs, and I really like this one.

    They clearly set out to change their style on their latest young modern, and I think that was a good decision. Hope they make another record soon.

  • i think they are doing another album this year

    they did some shows in Australia last year and ive heard rumors!!

    and yeah hopefully they'll keep the diorama sound.

  • what do you mean keep the diorama sound? They already changed their sound with young modern, but I agree, diorama was way better, don't get me wrong, young modern has some good songs, but they are too few and far between, and then there's that abomination 'straight lines' I'm Australian, and even now 2 years later they are still playing that fucking song on the radio, when it's almost the shittest song on the fucking album.

  • really getting into silverchair, love this song prob my fave.

  • Silverchair is ma favourite band, and this is my favourite song, favourite much?

  • frigging bad ass

  • Beaut song but nothing beats their earlier stuff.

  • This kind of is their earlier stuff, lol :D

  • Right. Because that's all there is to the song. Guitar.

  • strumming patterns can't be retard you idiot.

  • I agree with travis simpson. Diorama is a fantastic album.

  • on scale of 1 to 10 this about 8. Song great.

  • 2007 Rolling Stone's 25 most underrated guitar players. Only 29 years old, hope he's not done yet.

  • that guitar riff is fucking brilliant

  • Diorama is such a good album

  • i love muisc and i,m very picky about what i like and dont like but this band (sc) are excellent. i got this album a longtime ago and it remans one of the best i,v ever got and this song melts my heart. love it so much

  • Such a beautiful song, I love it...

  • mahal na mahal kita daniel sheeeeeeeeeet

  • fuuuuuuukin hell. the best song of SC, the intro is the killer

  • Cheesy video..but the song! Excellent..stuck in my head as I travelled home today, so had to youtube it now..dunno why even tho the first time I heard this was like eons ago, it still remains in my brain..

  • Diorama is probably the best album ever produced by any Australian band. Perhaps even in the whole world.

  • Yes, fuken brilliant, they're an infectiously good band with some infectiously great songs

  • having listening to silverchair all my life i can probably say that diorama is their best album. all their songs on that album is the some of the best songs ever written and put together, in general. the orchestra and the 12-stringed guitar and all make this a FUCKING brilliant leap from their previous albums.

  • holywood, the greatest view, one way mule the lever, and still young modern station and mind reader were the last songs of silverchair to have a post-grunge feeling, the rest were under the influence of the complex work in neon ballroom, so the decision of daniel that there will be no more albums like frogstomp and freak show, i still thinking about....

  • my fav song ever

  • what a song i didn't hear that song in years

  • I LOVE SILVERCHAIR!!!

  • I love this songs meaning, [a little parinoid] but still love the song, album, band well just everything about the band,

  • I remember an old friend played me this album, i'd never heard of them but was blown away. Across The Night is an amazing tune aswell

  • this is such a masterpiece! like the title itself, great song for those who appreciate their music. kip it up, on making beautiful songs. rak'enrol!

  • If im not mistaken he was married to Natalia Imbruglia, but they divorced pretty recently. I think in '06. Either way this is an amazing song.

  • yeah i guess he's not cuz i just read he was married...but i was talking bout his appearance not the music..duh

  • He is not gay.

    theyre just more matured. he looks good way back then ( Frogstomp and Diorama years)But his voice never changed. He's still the same, {Great Powerful Voice} but now it seems they switched music genre...But still for me, SILVERCHAIR ROCKS!!

    been a fan since 1999.

  • is he gay? cuz he looks like it now

  • how does a person LOOK gay, exactly? That makes no sense.

  • lol.

  • their last decent song... sadly

  • In your opinion, that is

  • daniel johns looks so much better with long hair. sexy. :D

  • i totally agree!

  • omg I HAVE to have this on my i-pod =D

  • this song is soul, love, heaviness, awesomeness, and all that ish. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. rock on, silverchair!!!

  • When I heard this song, it was like "Hello, we're silverchair, we're back, and it would definitely be in your best interest to buy our latest record, because we rule".. and I was like "I'll do whatever you say Daniel Johns".. and Diorama ended up being a transcendent masterpiece. True story.

  • hehehe i liked that story :)

  • Very catchy.

  • This song totally creeped me out when I first heard it - also 'Mind's Eye' by Wolfmother.. sent me completely 'round the twist!

  • the best song ever

  • I think for someone who was once too scared to leave his own apartment through anxiety, Daniel Johns has amazing confidence!

    Not many musicians really write such insightful lyrics as well as random things that are on there mind.

    I have respect for you Daniel!!

    People who are saying any of his work is crap honestly has no eye for talent.

    Be nice guys dont ridicule :)

  • so crazy! i first heard this song in an american promo for the Brittish show Sarah Jane Adventures thought it sounded great but didnt know who it was by or even the song title i did several key-word searches and after awhile i was so suprised to see it was my old buddies Silverchair! so many great memories of getting stoned to these guys early stuff from mid-late 1990s cant belive i cant remember the name of the album but the CD had a little frog on the coverart.

  • JimiShyne, it's Frogstomp:)

  • yea i found that out after i posted that lol

    thanks though.

  • It was called Frogstomp!

  • yeah ive found that out for myself and had four other people tell me that since that post but thx

  • man i must of been about 12 when this came out, love this song

  • One way mule, greatest view and without you are my favorites from Diorama. I love neon ballroom, diorama and young modern all with a different sound and daniel johns is a matermind songwriter and I can't get over how beautiful he is, his voice is still rockin it hasnt changed.. amazing!

  • i also think this period of silverchair´s career marked the time where they stopped being influenced by pearl jam and started being more interested by the kind of music john lennon john lennon used to make, and as a person who grew with this band i think this is great

  • iv been listening to silverchair since 1996 and, to me, this is their best song. this band´s evolution since their first record is amazing.

  • Get over it all of you and listen to the music, bunch of bogans

  • Your the analyst the fungus in my milk.

  • the best rock undergrond silver chair.

  • The last Hard Rock song by Silverchair. RIP Old Silverchair.

  • haha yea their new stuff suck balls

  • I agree. The two firsts albums are great but this song is from Diorama and it rocks. Their new album is bad.

  • yeah it makes me sad too.

  • this was the first song my and played at our first gig...so its a really special song for you

  • this song hepled me though the hardest breakup of my life.

    travelling on the ferry between two remote islands under clear summer night skies with the most perfect view and just letting the beauty take the pain away.

    just perfect.

    the beauty in the darkness.

  • best song ever written! and best voice!

  • good as song ! silverchair for life ! fucken legends

  • Beautiful!

  • Ok, so this is so good, I forgot to breathe. And blink, that's how amazing this is.

  • Don't A Lot Of Girl Wanna Have His Baby?  Cuz Count Me In! lol IM ONE OF THOSE GIRLS!

  • Me and my friend covered this song at my School's Talent show. Check it out, 'tis on my channel.

  • i want to have Daniel's baby

  • what type of guitar does daniel's played in this video?

  • That would be a Rickenbacker 330/12 Semi-Hollow Twelve string. Very nice guitar, thinking about buying one myself.

  • Just one of the greatest bands ever!!!! Luv them... great sound and lyrics... just the perfect music...

  • greatest refrain

  • i love this song, a lot, this song remembers me when i was in ma country singing with my bro...

  • Great video, greater song.

  • i love this song

  • How much is a one-way ticket to Australia? I haven't heard or seen anything related to Silverchair in the US since '96 until I saw the Straight Lines video last year. Now I can't get enough of them. I agree with most "Chair" fans that their music is genius, but the bottom line is that they flat out rock.

  • diorama is a great album. just takes a little getting used to. their newest is a little disappointing though.

  • I liked their new album, but I was just hoping they would progress from Diorama, but instead its like they stayed at the same level and just changed their style a tad.

  • for me it reminds me of the dissociatives but not as good

  • tell me about it. i miss frogstomp!

  • Wuzzup guys. Me and my friend did a cover of this song at our school talent show, the Video of it is on my channel. Check it out. Peace out Napoleon.

  • Silverchair is so awzoom!

  • i love the beginning esp and @ 225-245

  • me too,

    the song should go on like this 2 parts :)

  • i know it's so hard i love it lol(that came out soooo wrong)

  • Diorama is THE best album in life(period)!! Daniel Johns is sooooo unbelievable!

  • wah, that's asuuuu...very good boys!!

  • silverchairs albums are an evolution.. you can't listen to frogstomp and them move straight to young modern expecting to like it... i myself couldnt get into young modern till i had listened to diorama and that i couldnt really get into before i listened to neon ballroom. They have so many musical masterpieces on each album. The reason they evolved is because they are more than mere musicians. they are ARTISTS! i cant wait to see what they do next. i still like neon ballroom the best though

  • i think the best album for me is neon ballroom

    and

    Diorama coz i lyk they're music in that album

  • FROGSTOMP!! was for me the GREATEST !!

  • i like neon ballroom the best as an album but for my favourite song.. it HAS to be Freak

  • man, that's the perfect video clip...

  • this album ruled wat the hell went wrong???!!!????

  • Exactly, man! Probably the one of the best albums ever made got very little recognition in the states or anywhere really, it's so weird!

  • awesome band wish they wud keep makin songs like this Daniel John's rocks

  • i live silverchair since i remember... and this song is really amazing... Diorama is amazing!

  • Incredible ass song and you guys are arguing over how they look???? Let me guess...youre americans.

  • I'm American and I agree with you. I don't understand how people can argue over how Daniel Johns looks, when hands down, this song is badass. People need to focus on the art of the song! People who think he looks ugly are simply jealous. Besides, Daniel looks amazing and this song is one of a kind in my book. I love it!

  • Excuse the contradiction I made in my last comment. LoL!

  • I'm watching you watch over me.

  • this song is off Tiger woods PGA Tour 2003

  • No... this song is ON that game... its FROM one of the best albums ever witten..........

  • lol, reminds me of when a kid thought a nirvana song was from skate

  • ** Killer Tune!!

  • you're all lesbians because he looks like a girl jajaajajjajajjaaja

  • ...a girl with a goatee i guess.

  • his wife doesn't think that and she's feckin hot

  • His ex-wife now

  • débile!

  • THEY ARE ALL HOT!!!!

  • noooooo... Ben Gillies is Hotest than Daniel!!!

  • DANIEL JOHNS = HOTTTT

  • Este video esta exelente...... me encanta este gp

  • I love this song.

  • incredible

  • Great band. Killer TUNE!

  • the lead singer is pretty cute!

  • awesome

  • omfg daniel is so frucking hot and this song rocks

  • lol can you believe that us americans are hearing this song for the first time in radio even though this songs been around for about 6 years!!! lmfao

  • If you still listen to the radio chances are your taste in music sucks. Try to listen to band that ARE NOT on the radio Omar. Damn.

  • I love Ben Gillies!

  • it was funny at big day out (08) when he said something like "everyone's welcome to hear this song except you" meaning his ex-wife. because he wrote it about her. haha.. i think people get the wrong impression from this song, the chorus is about how much he enjoys sex with natalie. she's riding him - "im watching you, watch over me, and i've got the greatest view" he's a lyrical genius.

  • hahaha, that is so funny!

    natalie was a lucky bitch for having him, but i thought they were still friends so why would he say that if they still had a relationship as friends?

  • BUT I STILL LIKE DA NEW STUFF!!! :D

  • The last heavy, great song that ended Silverchairs grunge age.

  • the lever?

  • whats the song by cueshe that rips off silverchair?

  • it says "and ive got the greatest view from here" not i like guys u retard

  • That is a really awesome film clip, it really looked like him in the red at the table with the girl, but i dont think it was, lol, thanks.

  • ohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! i love this song!!!

  • Aint that the truth

  • He is delicious.

  • i love silverchair and i hope they keep going on 4 a long time lol

  • that is probably the only guitar that ive seen johns play that i dislike......irrellevant really. SC rule

  • That thing is a Rickenbacher. Try playing one..

  • i have, that is why i voiced my opinion, theyre just not for me

  • 12 string... funfun :)

  • I freaking love this video! The special effects rock and I love how they put Daniel in slow motion throughout the song and then sped them up towards the end. Plus, Daniel looks amazing as usual.

  • HCaddicted i didnt mean that u faggot i love silverchair songs like straight lines are great but in there grunge era was when they captured many of there fans and thoses fans are the real thing you cnt like silverchair from just listening to young modern so grt your facts right fuck job

  • Fabulous!

    absolutely amazing band!

  • And with all this Cueshe shit, wasn't this song written 2002 and Stay in 2005? Therefore wouldn't Cueshe be ripping off Silverchair and not vice versa?

  • LOL and why the fuck would Silverchair be ripping some cushe band?

    this song is way back 2002.

  • Ummmm....What you said made no sense....

    Everybody else was saying Silverchair copied Cueshe. So I said Cueshe would've been copying Silverchair....

    Unless you're agreeing with me, and in that case: MY BAD!

  • hey, whats everyones favorite chair album..personaly i like diorama and neon ballroom, how bout you guys?

  • WHY DID U CUT YOUR HAIR why did u change ONLY old skool silverchair ROX not the new stuff

  • apparently you don't consider yourself to be a fan. A REAL fan would like ALL of their music. And someone's appearance has SH*T to do with their talent.

  • I agree that most of Silverchair's old stuff is better but still the new stuff is awesome. Do you know how lyrically awesome Daniel is now compared to the Frogstomp era? Silverchair's music changed because they matured as artists and got bored of grunge music, which no matter how awesome it is, wasn't unique enough or satisfying enough for Daniel to write.

  • Dude where can i download this video

  • Sin palabras como siempre lo mejor de lo mejor!!!

  • If people like Silverchair soooo much, why do they write "silver chair"...just wondering...

  • Yer I know!

    People Say They Like Silverchair but they've only ever heard straight lines.

    sorry doesn't make sence to me lol.

    I Love Silverchair been a fan since 1993!

  • Girls Haircut For Daniel... xD!

  • im watchin you watch over me and i got the greatest view from here...what over me til we meet again vincent...r.i.p my brother

  • the greatest view from here...
