Israel's Son (Original Aus Version)

[saintjimmy2597]

aussie rock music is asome look at silverchair & lets not forget one of the worlds best bands acdc we salute you!!!!!!!!!!!

[Matheeu5]

Ziro Viadim

[zamedo87]

4:18 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!  X_X !!!

[MASAI97]

They came from this to Straight Lines -_-

[13dirty666]

@XXantartissaXX i see the resembelance but theyre very different songs

[southamericanrocker]

This video is way better than the american one... thanks

[imusbbored76]

Just the fact its Aussie, even if it is worst its still better. :) We Rock!!!

[freecandy90]

Offsprings tee shirt, ha ha FTW!!!

[alienfreaktlr]

i like this video way better than the american one. and it so does not sound like "even flow." I don't like that song, but i love this one!

[attrelpa]

@musicledgend1000, true! No one ever remembers that they were kids, writing chart busting hits, all because they submitted a old version of "Tomorrow" to their local radio station, ahhhh, refreshing! When music wasn't all about dough, and supporting other bands was acceptable. Now, bands are all about themselves. Unless it's indie, rarely will you see a top charted band wearing another bands Tee-Shirt!

[bennythegreat13]

I am, I am Israel's son

Israel's son I am

Put your hands in the air....!!

[eminemfan2800]

I hate how everyone is all "they suck now" or " They're too soft" Guys STFU this was an amazing album and yes they have changed but their all still amazing musicians. Plus it's gotta be fucking hard as 15 year old's to make another album like this. Two teenagers killed themselves to this song. Imagine how that effected the band. Think before you post a dumb comment

[heavenhelpme07]

@eminemfan2800 y dont u shut the fuck up. imagine how their families felt?

[laynestaley1990]

@eminemfan2800 they finally broke up because of how much they suck now. just my opinion. straight lines is actually the worst song ive ever heard come from a band that played rock.... i mean seriously theres no excuse for playing the shit they wrote on young modern.....

[onslombadong]

yeah silver chair were fuckin awsome in their early days they hella suck now

[beer222beer]

nirvana copy

[HertzSwift]

When I was a teen this album was the shit. I can only hope when i'm an old man that they have some type of nostalgic tour, at some brewery playing frogstomp songs, like old people have today with Daryl Braithwaite

[twitchthenrot]

@HertzSwift >_< hahaha!

[twitchthenrot]

@HertzSwift >_< hahaha!

[BonesTheCat]

@HertzSwift rofl great comment

[Galgalyne]

these guys.

gotta praise the diversity.

[LoveMetalForever100]

They're kids here, but they play with the passion of someone far older. Great fuck'n Aussie METAL talent!

[halcyon0830]

This is an Anti-Apartheid Pro-Freedom Anti-Fascism Anti-Oppression Anti-Genocide Anti-ZioFascism Pro-Palestinian Song.

Israel's Son - Jesus Christ, screaming for Justice, Equality, Rights and Freedoms For All.

This Song IS SCREAMING TO THE WORLD, WHY ARE YOU SITTING BY AND DOING NOTHING WHILE SO MANY PEOPLE SUFFER AND DIE AT THE HAND OF WAR-PROFITEERS AND CORPORATIONS AND NEOCONS AND ZIONISTS AND DICTATORS AND FASCISTS.

[Tarten46]

@halcyon0830 Depends on which Jesus you subscribe, Just a prophet or the son of God. Son of God said to submit to the governments God has seen fit to put in power. Its a bitch doing nothing, while the unjust go about their wicked ways, with pleasure and contempt. Vengeance is Gods; he made all creation, dealing with these little worms is outside his ability? Man can only screw it up! Choke back your anger and let God drive HE HAS A PLAN. I agree its a bitch. Take care brother.

[tickedoffnow]

Daniel Johns=The Australian/Straight-Edge Kurt Cobain

[GrungeMetalRocker]

@tickedoffnow

hmmmmm....

but his voice sounds more like a tenor range of Eddie Vedder....

[torycicciari]

@tickedoffnow wouldnt say straight edge exactly

[razor197]

i like daniels new stuff he said he will make some hard stuff in the new album but i doubt itll be as hard as this

[MitchTheGuitarKid]

This is when Silverchair were actually good. I don't own any of their albums after Neon Ballroom, cause that's when they went to shit.

[akerswizard779]

do they still tour?

[Hulstro]

They were so young and brilliant here! Love that DJ is wearing an Offspring shirt haha!

[adelis1985]

Best part of the song is 3:30 when the tempo starts building,

[1974BigJay]

After all these years this still rocks!!!!

[y0udiedyesterday]

well.daniel said he doesnt want to do the same thing again and he wants to try to keep changing.. that's why.

[theRCblokes]

What the fuck happened to Daniel Johns?!

[spouspube]

Love the lyrics. They're so kind. LOL :) Love this song, for real!!! I wish Silverchair's sound would have stayed this way.

[MojoRyzon]

When sliverchair did this and tomarrow they were deff on top of ther game! But that new shit they do is just horrible, Im just sayin!

[mitchellmcgilvery]

this was the best grounge band EVER!!!

[92DropDead]

Not the best but one of them

[MA7589]

ours ears only bled in a good way from listening to seether hey...

[Seether2769]

@MA7589 I wouldnt be suprised, Seether are a fucking brilliant grunge band. I personally think the best ever that exists apart from how Silverchair use to be and Nirvana.

[CUTEGURL1000]

Seether does copy every good band from the 90's but can you blame them...they are covering good music?........

[Evaristo360]

offspring shirt :)

[lunade13]

Demaciado parecido a Nirvana...

[figs1984]

frogstomp was their best album...they changed with the direction of music something that ruined their supporter base...they werent true to their style which is unfortunate because i enjoyed the raw quality of the songs on this album...much better than the soft mainstream stuff they wrote during and after freak show.

[Daniel51085]

i was 10 when frogstomp came out. i had no idea what they were talking about but i jammed the fuck outta that cd every day and blew many pairs of headphones doing so

[rabbitalmighty]

Great song :)

[YourFace]

Seether is a carbon copy of crap music. Nothing original.

[louiseduvee]

Check out Loose Ground. They're authentic.

[CUTEGURL1000]

Totally agree.

[MA7589]

seether covered this song

[silverthrone1995]

seether also covered nirvana :D

[xdeathtobirthx]

Seether covers every popular band from the '90s.

Nirvana, Silverchair, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Pantera, etc.

[metalheadfromnj]

Did your ears bleed from listening to seether?

[cattylovesmakeup]

what a song i love frogstom in general:)

[nikkanoo]

the song is from the 'Frogstomp" album

=-}

[rodie1994]

it's a gibson firebird...

[wtfbleachwtf]

dn but every wer u look on the videos same guitar he looks after itlol..

[6shadow6lord6]

Anyone know what the guitar Daniel's playing in this video is?

[icanflybeliveitornot]

soo cool, hes wearing an offspring t-shirt ^^

[cottoncase]

ohhh i love offspring!

[chuta1985]

so cool

[kristenscool7]

I was reading about this, thanks for putting up the Aus version.

[brainzrgood4u]

Sorry, my last comment was dicked up by youtube's typing delay. fucking youtube, man! I meant to say "DO NOT edit anything concerning violence. We love violence. We're very good at it." (not verbatim, but it works).

[brainzrgood4u]

In the future, plo not cut out anything for the sake of the US. We love murder, as we are very good at it.

[mugarwidow]

This was it.. when they actually played MUSIC

[Splity7]

Can someone explain to me... is he nazi or something?

[brainzrgood4u]

No, Nazis hate Jews. Daniel Johns is a Jew. He is talking about muslims (which I refuse to capitalize).

[6shadow6lord6]

He's not Nazi or Jewish. He's talking about executions in general for God's sake.

[khairaldin]

Bands have to evolve or else they grow stale, so I guess it's good that Silverchair changed. But I still miss their first album and every song on it! That was they at their best. That, and those covers of Black Flag and Minor Threat they did early on too :)

[AICnSP4EVA]

lol compare this to straight lines and see how rubbish sl really is

[DiseasedHealthHazard]

i love the Kurt cobain scream at the end

[Stuckinthe90z]

nice offspring t-shirt

ahaha

[laynestaley1990]

i know..in thier first album they put silverchair in the "thanks to" area... the offspring rock too ^^

[cottoncase]

hey what was the name of that album?

I think i might have it somewhere in the house ... lol

[laynestaley1990]

oops i think i said it backwards.. i meant that silverchair put the offspring in thier special thanks area in thier first cd entitled "frogstomp"

[cottoncase]

oh yeah yeah lol thats fine.

I knew that offspring was in the frogstomp thing.

lol taa anyway :)

[tmofee]

I think The Offspring gave The Chair props in their Ixnay album as well, I could be wrong...

[brtrajano]

Gooooood version" \m/

[pipeslinger22]

they have gone soft but this shit rocks

[cloverhoseman325]

Theyre new shit sucks haha, he dissed his first 2 albums, they were by far way better than the new one!

[GrungyGirl08]

wait chris nd benny boi are little hotties too i thort i mite mention that cuz they are!!!!!! hehe

[GrungyGirl08]

silverchair rock this world!! yaayayerh!!1 haha i still dont care if they have gone a little softer cuz daniel johns is a sexy beast nd nothing is everrr guna change that!!1 lolz HOLE rock NIRVANA nd SILVERCHAIR were/are as good as each other but different soooo there!!! they dont suck now....(im an angel)

[pameiRRa89]

I HATE YOU!!! frogstomp its... the best album in the world... i think that ^^

[ELcarajosINACIO]

i think he tries to wail like nirvana at the end of the vid.

[robttrav]

Daniel was 16 when they did frogstomp, and they were never as good as nirvana. They really suck now.

[jacstar]

15 actually.. pfft.

[MitchTheGuitarKid]

@jacstar Wasn't it 14?

[shadowalker00]

@robttrav 16 when they did freakshow

[musiclegend1000]

@robttrav and 14 when they wrote Tomorrow. You can't compare them. Go away.

[Broadfaith23]

@robttrav ur a fucking dick! my sister went to school with them in newcastle and he was 14 when they started making frogstomp not 16! and to say they were never as good as narvina is the dummest thing ive heard! hahah u wish u were them buddy and daniel back in the day would of punched u in the face u cock sucker! dont write shit if u dont know the facts! looser

[rbjk91288]

i like offspring too

[gcvanachair]

they were 18

[toddmichaelreeves]

How old was he when they did frogstomp can someone message me??

[lasfinisimas]

he was 16

[drewvaughn]

they were fourteen

[gcvanachair]

lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalallalalalalalalalal­alalalalalalalalaalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalalalalalala

[MrBergarschers]

this viedo reminds me of nirvana's 'in bloom'

[anidioticguitarist]

what happend to these guys 13 years ago these had one of the best albums ive heard frogstomp..that new song they have is really gay..it kinda sucks becaus they used to have that awesome grunge sound

[NAMEOFHOTHOT]

Daniel Johns kicks ass, 14 year old Daniel kicks more ass

[ilovesex7]

they look older than 14/15 its a amazing, there old stuff rulez n there new stuff sucks da big one

[mee1600]

EXACTLY MY THOUGHTS

[Skidzj]

Hey, hey, HEY wait a second, you think their new and UNIQUE sounding stuff that gets almost no airplay on US stations is to cash in on MTV, and this ISN'T? i have to laugh at that, because silverchair hasn't been on MTV since like 4 albums ago. Their new stuff blows their old stuff out of the water...but i still love this song.

[laynestaley1990]

no ...it just blows.....

[laynestaley1990]

no ...it just blows.....

[bejAmir]

wow! only 15 years old and they had a lot of energy! amazing band ever. but as the previous comments describe the band - they were good until they released the material after neon ballroom

[Akimb0]

Ugh, I hate the ppl marking down fair comments, Silverchair WERE one of the best bands I'd ever heard, but everything after Neon Ballroom was awful, just whiny meaningless nonsense to cash in on MTV.

[Skidzj]

LIAR!

[bejAmir]

מה זה...אני בן 15 ואין לי קול כזה...פששש להקה אדירה ושיר אדיר

[LifeIsPeachy96]

he cant lip sync at all lol but oh well

great song

they were good ..... i hate there new stuff

[naz168]

They ate Pearl Jam for breakfast and Nirvana for dinner with this tune when it came out...but that's all history. Kinda disappointed with their recent 'sound'...made me lost my grunge appetite.

[laynestaley1990]

lol pj is way better than they ever were but i think they were prolly better then nerdvana...and thier new stuff is not near s good as the old stuff

[SavannahR8]

Everything after Neon Ballroom has been shite. It's the saddest thing that they've turned bland and lazy like so many artists after a few albums. They have lost their edge along with their youth.

[rich8606]

damn! Daniel Johns's just 14 years old when the record was made.

[GrungeHead92]

It's amazing that they made this great song as 15-year-olds.

[LJKLEIN81]

this was such a good song, its unfortunate life has to change things, like good music

[Lbennett27]

man they had their shit going on

[p2spec]

some good shit

[Rockbandslidepostsch]

as a casual observr of silver chair i was confused with the new album because i thought, "isn't silvercahir a grunge band" and i don't know

i guess they kind of were

but

[cubby1812]

yes they were. its a shame they dont rock out anymore.

[emmthreejonny]

What the hell happened to him? He just fell for this new cutesy-cutesy trend crap. Like their recent stuff, but listening back to their older ones sorta pisses me off. Damn they used rocked it out so freaking hard. Somebody shake this guy back to their senses.

Lets go back and fling dung on these guys who wear tight pink girly t-shirts!

[Sk8erChildx]

Hell f---ing YEAH!!!

emmthreejonny BRA-F***ing-VO!!

I totally agree man...RAD!

[twilightbringer]

yeah, FrogStomp is the best. Their new stuff is really soft.

[munyangrang]

THE OLD STUFF WAS SO MUCH BETTER the new stuff is just a bit 2 PUSSY how can u go from playing this stuff to playing straight lines!?!?

[littledudu]

it's amazing to think that he was about 15 or 16 to have such an amazing voice..

[rodrigoNIN6]

daniel has the record to put t-shirts of other bands he was such a great beginner so that's the reason because silverchair's names sound so mhmmm less professional i see it with a tool t-shirt i know that he takes the inspiration of other artist actually he rarely put this type of t-shirts the most common in a child with 14 years old is appear on a video with the t-shirt of his favourite band

[texbert44]

what the hell are you talking about. none of what you are saying is making any sense.

[taintedcheese123]

I ... I don't get it what the fuck are you trying to say? It doesn't make any sense.

[rodrigoNIN6]

i really hate the people when they say that doesn't understand me i just only put my opinion of the video and why appear this version is all! and the last of much music is a trivia

[taintedcheese123]

You're still not making any sense! are you speaking english!?

[rodrigoNIN6]

of course but i didn't comment you that i'm from argentina :p

[bether15]

OMG i just saw these guys live and they were AWESOME!! Daniel has only gotten hotter with age and they played this song and it was so AMAZING live

[tophthegoph]

These guys were what, 14 when they made this song? And they've only gotten better since than. Love it!

[HateIsWhatIFeel4U]

this is the all time best song ever!

[spasticmonkeu]

i like the videos better than them live, especially now that they are rock stars. nothing against that, i'm glad that they got their due as they deserve it. i just would like to see a live version of this song where the singer doesn't pull any antics and just goes up there sings the song like he's talking to the audience and then ends the song.

[danedowling]

all bands need to progress, but i must admit this song kicks it, love it

[hoobastank9]

best of the best!!!!!!

[jacstar]

It's awesome to relive old chair stuff. :)

[valgalenD]

hey where did the colored version of this video go??....

[jacstar]

Thats the American version, should be on youtube somewhere.

[rodrigoNIN6]

really that's the censored version anyway the original video was too offensive due to the israel's son murder incident so this version is the most popular rather than the original this version was in a much music program that is refer to the director's most popular videos so this guy film the 2 versions but unlike this predecessor is more professional

[judofan]

Love that muddy bass!!!! Without it this song wounld not work.

[rodrigoNIN6]

this is the version when i know them, it was about 3 years ago the director of the video is the same that made smells like teen spirit of nirvana, no rain by blind melon and bullet with butterfly wings by th smashing pumpkins...the uncensored version upload here is cut and the image is not the best but this version i like it curiosly i confused daniel with kurt i felt like a stupid but in the video he moves like kurt and the video is in 1995 kurt died the year before

[zombiekirb]

Is Daniel wearing an Offspring tee?

[jacstar]

Yeah he wore that a lot!

[N3Xpert]

He wore a Tool shirt in the yesterday video. He doesn't deserve to wear shirts like this since their new queer shit came out.

[jacstar]

Really, keep your bashing to yourself you homophobe.

[14ledzeppelin14]

yeah it is easily the best song in the set they play now

[skycruiser777]

they fucking tore the roof off Perth last-night when they played this! love it..

[14ledzeppelin14]

i saw them in august in brisbane and it was AWESOME!!!

did they play 'the door?

[jacstar]

Yeah they play it every night.

[missvicky6]

Yeah, there's two versons of Pure massacre. The US version is with the dog and the noose, and the Australian is with the guys on stage...

[ankuzla]

can somebody give this America's version?

[jacstar]

just look it up here on youtube, it's colour.

[rr8ch66]

where can i find the uncensored version (the one before the murders)?

[jacstar]

This is it. The other version was made for America and is in colour.

[rr8ch66]

wow the quality of it is terrible then. i thought it was just the band (no color). i don't see what was so bad about it. didn't see the noose or anything else. good thing they made a better quality even though they changed it.

[rr8ch66]

ok i like this version than the other one...

[jacstar]

No wait, the other unsensored American version of Israel's Son should have the noose and the dog in it.

[jacstar]

I think you might be thinking about Pure Massacre.

[melbenboi]

one of the greatest albums i own and i own a lot.

shame they went to shit halfway through freakshow.

[jacstar]

That was the period when Dan nearly died so give them a break.

[riverman72]

I've followed Silverchair from the beginning and have all their albums on CD, they are a remarkable band and I'm still a huge fan. Its the first time I've seen this video and can't see what was controversial about it?

[jacstar]

Look it up on Wikipedia. :)

[MotaroII]

This is my favorite song of all-time

[thenorthenlad1990]

This is shit, how did they influence Fightstar??

[jacstar]

Who is Fightstar? If you think this is shit, they have heaps different stuff later in their career.

[hangar13freak]

Why did this be deemed to contriversial for america? I didn't see anything bad in there... Man in the box is worse with the eye thing at the end

[Stickerbushes]

The controversy was not about a music video. It was about the song itself.

[jacstar]

It was about both. After the song and the murders they changed the video.

[Stickerbushes]

More accurately, Sony changed the video because they feared the controversy that erupted when defense lawyers initially claimed the song contributed to the crimes. It was an absurd defense, and was quickly abandoned, but the legend remains. I remember it quite well, as I was a big Silverchair fan, and it happened only 100 miles from where I live.

[K3MBLE]

silverchairs new stuff sucks balls

[campkillyourself93]

they were only 15 when they did this song

[jacstar]

Actually 14 when they recorded it. :)

[zephed69]

this is a good tune

[iluvoasis]

the new silverchair is very good but I like this a little more it's just my taste

[tootncartman]

their new music is fucking shit. it sucks some serious arse man. Old school Silverchair was the best!

[jacstar]

That's just personal taste. Just cause the music isn't 'heavy' doesn't make it shit. There old stuff (frogstomp and freak show) had terrible lyrics.

[VanCityKyle]

I think Silverchairs new stuff is way better than Isreal or tommorow ever was!
