  • holy fuck daniel johns is so bad ass! damn man why is he so strange now, i like it but i'd like him to stay true, keep that strong vocal orientated music cranking!!

  • oh dude what can we do?? i'm a young bloke and i hate this fuckn shit modern dance influenced pop, grunge had a very musical influence on pop culture

  • awesome

  • mano -e-mano without using youtube....jonas brothers and jb can't match silverchair at their teens....

  • I'm 38 and I can still remember the first time I heard these guys when I was about 20.

    They were still called Innocent Criminals and I couldn't believe how bloody good they were for their age. Legendary Aussies!

  • Silverchair is the shit yeah!!!!

  • I remember this filmclip! I know they replaced it with the pig one, but this was when I fell in love with Silverchair

  • i love this song. and he is just too damn cute. haha. :)

  • Wow this must have been when they were like 13; craziness!

  • Awww the old video tapes.

  • 14 year olds? fucking hell legends.

  • Won't you come with me, to a place in a little town.

    The only way to get there's to go straight down.

    There's no bathroom, and there is no sink.

    The water out of the tap is very, hard to drink,

  • can i have a cup is there any tea

    why did you ask me here anyway

  • e plurbius unum-----US

  • "you say that money isn't everything, then i'd love to see you live without it".... silverchair

  • oH man!! epic!! remembering the good old days! shit miss my childhood days!!! rock on!! silverchair my one and only!

  • They became a much better band I thought, after they evolved past their "Nirvana Jr." phase.

  • Natalie Umbruglia's only love? She was too beautiful for him and he was too insecure. When you're capable of writing a song with such candour as this, you know you're heart's on the line constantly.

    YOU SAY MONEY ISN'T EVERYTHING, BUT I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU LIVE WITHOUT IT. YEAH, LET'S STOP THESE PEOPLE TELLING US WE SHOULD FIND OUR LOVE AND BEAUTY WITHIN WHEN WE'RE DESTITUTE AND PENNILESS AND THEY'RE STANDING ABOVE US WAITING FOR US TO SPEND OUR LAST DIME ON SOMETHING WE DON'T NEED.

  • @nogoodusernames667 You do realize he wrote this when he was a child, right? He wasn't even involved with Natalie until around 2000.

  • @TylerTProductions I know right....how she doesn't know that coming from Australia is strange. How dare anyone say Nat is too good for Dan! She obviously is the one with insecurities since she couldn't keep him happy. Some people need to know when to keep their damn trap SHUT! lmao

  • @Dansilverbabe Haha exactly! I've seen you on almost every Silverchair video I visited. And believe me, I've visited A LOT lol I love Dan :)(: And all the boys from Silverchair of course xD

  • @TylerTProductions You make me sound like an obsessive, possessive fan lol "I am" guess it's a natural instinct to defend him. I just think it's stupid for people to comment on bands they know nothing about. Well anyways guess I'll see at the next chair vid! :DD

  • @TylerTProductions see YOU at the next chair vid :) hate it when I fuck up and type too fast lolz.

  • @Dansilverbabe Hahaha alright! :P

  • Natalie Umbruglia's only love? She was too beautiful for him and he was too insecure. When you're capable of writing a song with such candour as this, you know you're heart's on the line constantly.

  • they were 14 when they cut their first record you non believers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ahh this is the video I remember.Not the American version!

  • i hope grunge comes back, bigger than ever

  • ostia este video no lo habia visto nuuunca

    es geniaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal

  • Nothing but the best comes from down under!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • really? eddie vedder sounds like shit? and you're positive on scott staph? when did you go deaf?

  • like this comment if 90's Music kicks modern day music's ass!!!!!!!!!

  • @coolkazza888 fuck yea for eternity

  • .....and sounds like Eddie Vedder

  • @vasse79 No Eddie Vedder sounds like shit, Daniel sounds like a young Scott Stapp

  • @DBOG I know opinions cannot be wrong, but you're just... wrong.

    1) Scott Stapp sounds like and came after Eddie Vedder, so you cannot say Stapp sounds good if Vedder doesn't

    2) Uhh... what? I do not believe I am hearing this atrocity. Vedder bad and Stapp good??!?!?!?!?!

  • @FullMetalAngelREBORN

    .... lol

    dont even bother trying to educate retards like that.

    who know nothing about music.

  • @FullMetalAngelREBORN Where do I say Scott Stapp or Silverchair are good? Get your panties out your ass, it was a joke. <---- Kinda similar to your life

  • @DBOG Uhh, using personal attacks now?

  • @FullMetalAngelREBORN Someone has to put dumbasses in their place. Any other obvious points you would like to make?

  • @DBOG Yes, I do have a point I would like to make. There is no need for personal attacks, despite our differing in opinions. Period.

  • @FullMetalAngelREBORN Quit being a baby. I'm not responding to anymore of your idiodic comments.

  • @DBOG Lol.  *idiotic

  • @FullMetalAngelREBORN good job! :D YOU JUST WON THE YOUTUBE WAR!!!!

  • @flamingbabymortar Is there a medal?

  • @FullMetalAngelREBORN no but... you win the chance to watch my shitty videos on youtube? lol

  • sometimes Daniel looks like Kurt Cobain

  • how did his voice go from curt cobain brilliant to shit

  • I bought the C.D. 15 years ago, when i was in OZ they totally rocked then :)

  • Comment removed

  • hear the power of those drums just like John Bonham !!

  • best aussie band. ever.

  • ''.and you are watching your television.''

    ahahah XD

  • Who said 14 year olds had to make rubbish music?

  • lindo que era , desearia que se hubiera quedado asi para siempre ...... asi me hubiera podido casar con el.

    jaajajaa

    lo amo <3 enserio .

    tierno y rudo

    Silverchair en esta era por siempre .

  • fckn awesome..!who would have a voice like that at 14? he barely started puberty...

  • I can't understand what they are saying when they speak, but when he sings, DAMN! :D

  • @kitsune090 I think you made too much assumption

  • @kitsune090 - at this point Kurt Cobain wanted to be Mark Arm and play in the Green River. look at pictures he dressed, sang, dyed/styled his hair like Mark in a way that evokes Single White Female. thats so sick pathetic... only twenty-something posers. and they even got famous... unreal...

    Perspective: You fail it.

  • @kitsune090 you're baggin on a 14 year old kid that sounds like this? * shakes head *

  • @somegeek , amen my friend, amen!

  • @kitsune090 at 14 anyone can be a poseur...if you have a hero,please impersonate him but do it well...today there's no heroes...just shit artists who will generate worse shit in the years to come...

    and don't forget that vedder was so influent those years that 20&30yos tried to make his voice...days of the new,creed,stone temple pilots to name just a few

  • some ppl makin jokes about they look like hansons..these hansons don't play mmmbop...in fact silverchair and hanson are cool,each band in their own style,rock and pop...

    the fact is...90s rule :)

  • oh my god it's '80s silverchair

  • nirvana much?

  • better than Justin Bieber

  • @Derp1978 better? Joosting Beaver is a rotten bastard desperated dog shit bacteria...please don't write this wuzz ass weenie slut name in here anymore

  • @AndreVlaamsValle hahahaha

  • silverchair i swear man i used to drive my family crazy with their music and it didnt help that i had my room plastered with their picture man i miss the good 'ole days..

  • This is where it all began for me....I used to listen to this version on my cassette tape every single morning on the way to school, then on the way home.....and the all mighty frogstomp cd was given to me as a b'day pressie....that had to be the most played cd ever...

  • ''Hey, We're Silverchair''.

    ''And... You're Watching - Your Television''.

    XD

  • this were my jona's brothers when i was a kid..

  • @mucocele if i listen to jonettes in the 90s i'd be Ru Paul now!

    bad influences are like that LOL

  • @AndreVlaamsValle Jajaja what i ment to say, back in the 90's Silverchair they were 17 years old and they play hard still today, Silverchair was a good influence, jaja i now a made a bad example jajaja XD but today the kids they don't have great music like we did in the 90's

  • fuck yeah.

  • Whatever happened to these guys? True talent starting at such a young age and to fade so quickly. I know where they got their name, and being so young I can understand.

  • @SonofSet86

    fade so quickly lulz? they released 6 studio albums the lattest in 2007. get a clue

    @jfishcake

    in the nineties the levels of teen faggotry weren't what they are today. newfag.

  • @boomhss i was there too. i like this song, i like this band, i liked them 15 years ago. i have moved on now, i like new bands and new kinds of music. Which brings me to my next point, grunge music is not popular mainstream shit anymore. rock today on the radio mostly sucks balls. the chances of a band this young that rocks this hard and gets half the attention are slim to none. THAT DOSNT MEAN THEY DONT EXIST. excuse my lack of grammer, but i dont really feel to formal talking on youtube.

  • @SonofSet86 They've been around for years and years and have made some amazing albums! I don't like their current musical style though, it totally sucks. Albums like Frogstomp, and Neon Ballroom were amazing works of art.

  • where did the grunge go?

  • OMG!!!

    I

  • Oh, what a difference in generations. Last decade, 14 years old badasses ruled the stage.  Now, Jonas Faggots and Justin Boner >_>

    Today's youth has lost its balls....

  • @AVIATIO I so agree.

  • @AVIATIO yea and hanson brothers didnt exist at the same time as these guys? just as black tide exists now among the jonas brothers. history repeats itself you old fuck. are balls are in check where are yours? still hooked on 14 year old boys in the nineties apparently

  • @jfishcake silverchair were(are) a true rock band and the hansons are(were) a great pop band with black music and country influences...don't come here talking about similarities between today's media shitty prefab worms...they are crap and they know that...the only thing that makes them feel good is that their dumbass fans are so naïve to realize that quickly...the fans will take all their teen years to see how crappy their 'idols' are LOL

  • @AVIATIO your so right, but its all about the fucking money the record companies want now adays, not the music anymore. justin bonehead is a money maker for the already rich executives.

  • @AVIATIO , I've watched a ton of documentaries and read a bunch of books on this exact subject. They are trying to feminize men and masculinize women. Seriously. I know to most people reading this it sounds crazy, but it's true. From the chemicals they put in our food, to the clothes styles they push on kids that are cool, there's proof everywhere. Have you seen the jeans guys were these days? If it was 10 yrs ago, everyone would think they were gay for wearing jeans like that. Really gay.

  • @GrassyKnollTrolls I've heard about that but I find it hard to believe. Kids soon grow out of trends.

  • @GrassyKnollTrolls Ummm... Do you not remember when the "heaviest" metal bands in the 80's wore spandex pants that look EXACTLY like the "skinny jeans" of today? Trends and fads come and go, always have, always will. Not saying I disagree with your whole statement, just the last part.

  • Silverchair rules!

  • we're silverchair and you're watching your television.. lol

  • @Flipskaterz252 your hilarious what a wiseguy, kid don't even try to troll here besides my comment wasn't directed at you genius!

  • @Flipskaterz252 lol johns wrote most of it with gillies helping on a few i have there music books and each song is basically written by johns or gillies not sure bout the new stuff though i just no there shit from 95 to 2001 dont really get in to straight lines but it is a catchy tune for what it is silverchair BEST BAND EVER

  • ahhhh.. so cute! xD~.. ahahahah

    Pretty good even younger *-*~~.. They're greeeeeeeeeat <3

  • Thank u for uploading this. I watched this video for the first time was 14 years ago and still feel fresh until now. By the way, happy 31st birthday to Daniel Johns n_n

  • Best song of the 90's, bar none.

  • so close with their style of music to Nirvana...he reminds me soo much of Kurt Cobain, its uncanny.....

  • Daniel look like my cousin there...spooooooooky!!

  • This is the best of them Kurt was first, Silver was second but it was all the the same era! oh yeah

  • sounds like kurt ands eddie put together

  • It's horny time.

  • man, the solo sucked that time.lol

  • He write this when he was 14 hey and said he thinks he was imatura haha

  • they looks like kids,

    silverchair it's a great band.

  • @nirvanank yous spells likes a kids

  • his new look is crap

  • ...ARE THESE THE HANSON BROTHERS ??? hahah i love silverchair since '95.... !!

  • is it just me or does anyone else see the similarity between the silverchair guy and kurt cobain? anyway nice song ^^

  • @iriz93 Everyone tried to copy Kurt Cobain back then. =)

  • @iriz93 THE SILVERCHAIR GUY ,LOL HIS A LEGEND IN  AUSTRALIA his name is daniel johns

  • I wish he woulda stayed 14 and kept making this music.

  • god yes, i realise hes probably happier now because he had a few problems when he was younger but i love the intensity in his voice. was really disapointed in straight lines. yes it was a comercial succes but i really hope they go back to this style where they got so many fans. apparently theyre doing an album at the moment..

  • best 14 yr old band back then

  • Can you think of another band of 14 year olds that good since then?

  • @thedarkesttruth best 14 yrs old band ever in history

  • @thedarkesttruth

    Best 14 yr old band Ever

  • They won a radio competition with this song.

    That got them signed. They made there first video with this. They edited the song, and changed the video with it.

  • it was a sbs competition actually. called "picked me". in a surprising case of co-operation between stations, one of the prizes was airplay on triple j. remember, silverchair was before unearthed. grinspoon were the first winners for that and that was slightly after...

  • from 95 to 2002 they were simply the best i loved em growing up i still think some how somtime there gonna be even bigger then those years ,im a puresilverchair fan ill never bag em even when there not releasing there kick ass shit u just wait and watch there gonna rule again

  • @stonerdrunk dude what a cool thing to say I have to congratulate you on not being a dick and calling them sellouts. I'm a true fan at heart as well and love everything they've ever done. No one can see exactly what the future holds but Daniel John's has always surprised me with his creative wisdom and lyrics. No one can write the way he does. Keep the faith man! :)

  • the differnece between frogstomp and pre frogstomp.....there are 2 versions of tomorrow, one was made in the triple j studios for the "tomorrow ep(this video)..the other was made for the frogstomp album...both versions are fuckin cool...solos are way different though..DONT MAKE ME CHOOSE!!!

  • hey wats the difference vbettween frogstomp and pre-frogstomp. Is frogstomp remastered?

  • This song was written before they were ever singed and made frogstomp. They are prob 14 yr old in this video

  • These Hanson guys can really rock!!

  • lol?

  • all the people saying 'they should go back to how they used to be and goback to being grunge' are idiots. Is that really gonna happen? theyve matured, if you dont like it then keep it to yourself

  • It's called having an opinion, dip shit.

  • here here! here here! =] <3

  • woah look who can swear online. big man

  • They had better songs at the age of 14 than now. On the album frogstomp Daniels voice was the best, I dont know whats happened with his voice, now it sounds terrible.

  • simply fucking beautiful

  • I like this song, they sound gay now -_-.

    They should go back to Grunge.

  • heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllll­ll yeah! how did he go from looking/sounding dead sexy to... worse looking and sounding that ricky martin. dude looks gayer than ricky.. i don't understand. honestly i don't.

  • wow, how old can they be? 14? 15?

  • they're 14. amazing aye

  • LOL! If Daniel Johns is GAY, I will definitely marry him!

  • he's NOT!! he announced to a croud, "I'M NOT FUCKIN' GAY!!"-adjusting his sparkly silver garder. lmfao. he looks like a really really gay ricky martin right now. i don't really understand how he went from dead sexy to that. and i think he's married to a chick.. but you can always dream! <33 =P

  • Comment removed

  • How did Daniel Johns get so gay?! His voice is awesome in this song.

  • And, yes. I agree with you. Far more musically talented than now, both lyrically and instrumentally. Daniel's vocal range was extremely impressive, it's sad to see what the music industry and fame has done to such talented bands. But according to jcthelovechild, Silverchair has "matured." Go figure.

  • well, what i don't get is that... he is apparently not gay.. but one of his lyrics is like.. "i'm a sex change, a damsel with no heroin."... or something like that.. mhmm daniel.. really fucking weird lyric for anyone. i've never seen anyone metro with a ricky martin vest and sparkly silver eye shadow. i guess a lot of us just really really like grunge and not this weird pop stuff. that's why we got into silverchair in the first place. =P

  • of course theyve matured, there music is alot more mature and a hell of a lot harder to write than there old stuff. I have nothing against there old stuff i freekin love it and do prefer it too young modern, diorama etc.. but i just dont see the point in everyone just wanting them to be more grungy like they used to be, when it obviously isnt gonna happen.

  • @jronson22 he was about 17 in this and he is 31 now.

  • @BobHylan 14

  • @jronson22 Probably because he had severe anorexia and bulimia. That messes with your esophagus really bad. :\

  • This song was insanely popular. It's still great.

  • The singing sounds a little bit like April Wine in the beginning. Never noticed that before.

  • You dont know what your doin "black-boy"??"back-boy"???"bad­-Boy"???

  • Comment removed

  • You gonna wait till tomorrow.

    Then later.

    You gonna wait till Tomorrow Fat Boy.

  • (Fat boy not bad or black or back) Singer had anorexia issues. Unfortunately he decided to sing about it on a later album more directly. See Ana.

    You, wait 'til tomorrow

    You, wait 'til tomorrow

    You say that money, isn't everything,

    But I'd like to see you live without it.

    You think you can keep on going living like a king.

    Oohh babe, but I strongly doubt it.

    Very hard to drink.

    You gonna wait 'til, fat boy,

    Fat boy, wait until tomorrow

  • fat boy.

    you're gonna wait too, fat boy

  • fat boy

  • Silverchair started out with 4 band members

  • yahh,me too mate =)

  • i personally prefer this version

  • Grunge sempre sempre!!!!

  • And ralphwiggum14 ... the lyrics are not about sinks that are very hard to drain ...

    There is no bathroom, and there is no sink. The water out of the tap is very hard to drink.

  • No, keleeidoscope, you are wrong. It is not the single from the album ... it is not the same recording at all ... it is pre-Frogstomp, just as the label says. This was a low-budget video for the demo of the song. The song was re-recorded for the album and that is a much better recording. It is also nearly 30 seconds shorter.

  • Why won't you believe your eyes??? It's the video clip, wow.

    And it's not pre-Frogstomp, this was the first single the album was released at the same time as it. I probably watching this live on Rage.

  • Tomorrow was written like 5 years earlier from what I heard.

  • wow how young do they look. So talented.

  • thanks for posting! <3

    man... this is classic stuff! :]
