Silverchair - Barbarella

[IronRevolution]

One of the best b-sides from the YM era. The feeling is so great, the rhythm, the lyrics, the bass line, Daniel's voice... I love it SO MUCH! Along with all the tracks from the If You Keep Losing Sleep single and Sleep All Day. I just hope Silverchair will come back soon and keep doing this amazing stuff like Young Modern.

[dissociatives]

just starting to move my hips all the time I hear this!! so funny while I am out in da town:D :D brillant song

[lackofspeed]

Fuck yeah. !~

[ja0401]

The link I shared is the early version of Barbarella called Arrest These Orchids. I realise I worded it weird in my earlier post :P Sorry about that. hahaha I love Silverchair! XD

[ja0401]

/watch?v=bDbr0dmuZaM I'm surprised how many people missed that this is the finished version of Arrest These Orchids with all new lyrics. Proof that songs have different lyrics and sound entirely different in the writing process of music. I'm sure there are hundreds of versions of each song. Think about it. It has to sound "perfect" to the standards of the combined feelings of millions of people. ;)

[juiceuga]

It's a B-side off of either the Straight Lines single or the If You Keep Losing Sleep single. Check out my channel! Juiceuga...devoted to the very best of Silverchair live performances!

[psycheymikey]

Wow, how could they cut this from YM album??! I LOVEEE Barbarella!! XD

[BLueEyeButterfly]

[lappinsilver]

Love thi song it is very hip it rocks

[jumbz55]

this song is funk-aye! pity this wasn't on the album. they should do more of this stuff.

[lappinsilver]

Well your in luck rumor going round is that Silverchair will head back into the Studio next year and Daniel said the b-sides of Young Modern will be the next albums type

[theinternalmuse]

damn i hope so

they r an incredible band

[youngmodernn]

This is just lovely!

Does anyone know what album its off?

I dont think its on any!

It sound kind of reminds me of the verses in the song 'grease is the word' from Grease.

Champion song!

[rootsm3]

This is a B side from Young Modern...Young Modern has some great B sides you should check em out

[youngmodernn]

Thanks dude,

What where do you get that?!

I have the Young Modern CD, is it an extra CD or something?

[rootsm3]

This is a B-side. B-sides are the songs that were cut from being on the album but usually you can find them on iTunes.

[lappinsilver]

And on the singles

[skoomers]

this song is pure sex!!! daniel's vocals are off the hook! especially in the verses....OH YEAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

[juuserpeRa]

yep. daniel's voice sounds very sexy ;P

[juuserpeRa]

silverchair is just getting better =)

[MyStrangeBehavior]

funny song :P

been looking for this; Thanks for uploading !

[Shyox]

Silverchair's albums and songs have been getting progressively better, and right now, Young Modern is as good as a Beatles CD. Every song is just so awesome... They're building this awesome catalogue of songs, and if they keep going the way they are, they're going to be the new Beatles.

[seriouslyfreaky]

Fuck being the new beatles silverchair is so great it shouldnt be compared like that. It is its own sayin.

silverchair forever

[CathedralOfGhosts]

This song rules, plain and simple.

[Sullengirl12]

I love this song for how different it is. Even compared to Young Modern. Daniel sure knows how to write a catchy tune :)

[kidmush1]

This song is lovely i love how it opens

[raininmyst]

OOO I would love to be stuck in a cellar with Daniel :o) Seriously Silverchair is getting better and better with the music. I really love how they are branching out and trying different musical styles!!!

[evitarox]

Buy them, don't download them! We need Silverchair to keep making money so they can come to the states more often ;-P

This song is AWESOME :)

[ORDER91]

i know where to Download this song/hide your tongue/we're not lonely for free..

[pollyethylene]

Hey rootsm3, you seem to be in the know re: silverchair.. I heard that Daniel Johns said the song "we're not lonely but we miss you" is going to be closer to what the next album sounds like.. is this true? If so, I'm excited. I really like this song too. Catchy, and yes, sexy.

[rootsm3]

well surprisingly enough i dont read articles and interviews so i really wouldnt know but if that is what the next album sounds like...great!! i dont care what some people say about the new sound. it rocks

[kidmush1]

Fuck ya it does its amazing! Much love

[rp4dj]

rootsm3, is there any way you could send me this?

[rootsm3]

i know its a far departure from their old stuff but this song is very sexy and i love how strange dj's voice is getting

[insignificantother]

I personally think it rocks! Im lovin' silverchair's new direction!

[Slash1374]

its to electro, in my opinion. dont really like this song, sry.

but thanks for the vid, i never hear this song before

[BakeriesInc]

if anyone owns a mac, doesn't the bass part and guitar sound like something from garageband, or I am I having one of those days?

groovy song

[whateverbill]

Love this song! Can't stop listening to it!

[rootsm3]

i know!!

who else here thinks all of the b-sides shouldve been on ym?? this is a really catchy song.

[kisscatastrophe]

shit! I love this, I hope they hop into the studio next year and do another chair record instead of taking another 5 year break.

they seem to really be on a great stride right now creatively and emotionally

[rootsm3]

enjoy it while you can...i wouldnt expect another record for at least 3 years. hopefully some more dissociatives to satiate us!

[ClearEyed]

"enjoy it while you can...i wouldnt expect another record for at least 3 years. hopefully some more dissociatives to satiate us!"

actually Daniel said last week on a little XM interview he did that the band has demoed several new songs and plan to do the next chair record in the fall and winter for a spring or summer 2009 release.

he has no current plans for any futher Dissociatives work now that Paul is a part of Silverchair

[pirukatz]

FUCKIN' SUPERB!

[maxabt]

The bass line of this song is amazing. Way to go Chris!!!

[okwah2aqua]

dayum good song

[AnorexicFrogg]

i have to say the way he is singing here is very attractive and this song is addicting its really awesome =)

[rootsm3]

yes, dan's a sexy man. if i were a stripper this would be my song lol

[AnorexicFrogg]

LMAO yeah a stripper song LMAO

[Sfcharm]

hhmmm my stripping song is actually "all across the world"

but this is pretty sexy your right, more perky!

hehehe

[wierdalexj]

Rootsm3, you hit the head on the nail! I love this song!!! It makes me wonder if Daniel wrote it on a lark or if he had just finished watching Barbarella (or someone else.....hehe ;). I really hope that they take their next album in this direction. Sexy + Funky = Silverchair's massive selling 6th album!

[raveize]

So stay around

And tell me secrets in the night

oooh oooh...

Keep holding questions with a million answers

We got pedestrian Brazillian dancers

Who like to break the rules

oooh oooh...

[rootsm3]

thnx for helping out the lazy bums who cant look the lyrics up themselves ;)

[raveize]

anytime!!!! ;)

[raveize]

She came out looking like some Cinderella

Walked out the door becoming Barbarella

It's hard to keep my cool

Whoo ooo...

I'm in the secret cellar

You're becoming Barbarella

I don't know why, I don't know when

I don't know where we'll get up

[raveize]

I'm in the secret cellar

You're becoming Barbarella

I don't know why, I don't know when

I don't know where to get up

So stay around

I'll tell you secrets in the night

oooh oooh...

[raveize]

I haven't seen it in the longest time

I gotta say, can't get ya off my mind

I'm like a shakin' fool

Whoo ooo...

Lately I'm dining on gin and sake

I'd like to dress you like a rich Iraqi

So separated

Whoo ooo...

[SmellingDeadRoses]

I seriously can't get the lyrics for this song! I just wanna know what he say in a certain lyric, oh well. Great song, Kinda sounds like the man that knew to much, cool. Also: We're not lonely...BUT we miss you. Is a great song too.

[rootsm3]

i know the lyrics if u wanna know somethin...yea i'm trying to make a we're not lonely video too

[SmellingDeadRoses]

Thanks mate u rock, na it's cool, i found out the lyrics. Good luck with your new vid, i see heaps of your videos and they're all heaps good. Peace out!

[0930852159]

does Dan know how to write a catchy song or what? so addictive...

[shrawn]

awesome song! very 'groovy' hahah!

i've been listening to it for like 3 weeks.. i love it!

Dan's sexy voice is perrrrfeccccccct!

[ctvoskvindt]

greatyy

[spscotto]

sounds like it would've fit on both Young Modern and the Dissociatives. I kinda understand why they left it off the album, though; it sounds similar to "The Man that Knew Too Much", I just wish it stayed on the album lol! Awesome song!

[rootsm3]

Oooh 963 views! Can I break 1000 by tomorrow? Send this video to all ur friends even if they're aren't chair fans because they haven't found the way yet :)

[Edelien]

why oh why can't I find this mp3? I can't even find young modern on a fucking cd-store. akjsdfhskjhd

[rootsm3]

where are you looking? have you tried online. i was in the uk when it came out so i got it early :) for this i kinda cheated and just recorded it on my computer.

[Edelien]

Cd-stores, because I don't buy anything from online-stores. Could you somehow send me this song on mp3?? Im so in love with this song!

[grizzlymuff]

ebay mate (Y)

young moderns on there.

[whiskeywarmseptember]

Unfortunately for us non-Aussies the only legal way to get the bsides is by buying The Greatest View EP from US/Can iTunes.

[johnmac1285]

wow! how did I miss this!! unreal! thank you kindly for the post!

[rootsm3]

its no secret folks...i just took it from the paul mac and daniel johns myspace page.

[user93215]

...oh. didn't know they had one. thanks

[user93215]

bloody f**k... how did i miss this gem of a b-side?... thanks for fueling my silverchair addiction!

[catcourtnay]

lol...my feelings exactly!

This song is so cool.

[user93215]

planning on buying 'the greatest view' EP? this song is supposed to be on it.

[muzikfreak23]

love this song

it's so catchy

[lostboy765]

Damn, why was this left off Young Modern? This song is wicked funky! Would have been great with better production too...but for a demo it sounds like a really fun track. Reminds me of a bit of Prince, mixed with early Bowie. Good times!

[phillbfg]

Barbarella was written after recording sessions of Young Modern.

[skoomers]

i LOVE this song! every single B-side for young modern is album worthy. if these b-sides are any hint towards the post-YM direction of the chair...i am VERY excited!
