Silverchair - Roses (Live @ MuchMusic)

[TheCrimsonDeep]

For those people who say that Daniel was a copy of Kurt:

The "But I won't fall down" is the biggest difference between the two for me.

Daniel was a boy becoming a man with worse health.

Depression, anorexia, arthritis ... But he did not give up.

And Kurt ...Well, where is he now?

Do not get me wrong, I'm also a fan of Nirvana, but really, is not it?

And for who still insist on comparing them musically ...

You've heard "Petrol And Chlorine" and "Steam Will Rise"?So ...

[faridjabba]

@TheCrimsonDeep idk but why he had DEpresion or ANorexia or Artitis?

[HAYDS510]

@TheCrimsonDeep i'm in agreement with your point here, different people doin what they do for different reasons..no doubt about it... but on another note, to suggest Cobain was a weaker man because he succeeded in finishing himself off.. not to stick up for suicide at all..it's a terrible thing, but you have to think..to actually do it, the only way to know what thats like is to be so messed up you kill yourself too without failing. his kind of depression was more severe

[TheCrimsonDeep]

@JoeriBakker:Really, i'ts NOT TRUE!

Silverchair name is based on tale The Silver Chair, by C.W.Lewis.

I think you should inform yourself before you say anything, do not believe everything you have in Wikipedia, understand?

[youjeff92]

whats on johns's tshirt? i canney see

[jrwaneurysm]

Just to keep the idiotic comparisons going I think Seether totally ripped off Silverchair. How ya like them apples? You all can continue your stupid finger pointing now.

[NervesOfSteel1986]

freak show defined silverchair let it be known that freakshow is their greatest album

[InnuendoXP]

I love the big harsh sound in this set

[SuperMegabar]

Personally, i think that Silverchair were trying to sound like bands like Pearl Jam and (wait for it) Nirvana... BUT on Freak Show they made their own mark... So what im saying basically is that Freak Show is better than Frog Stomp

[locustkllr]

1 person won't fall do-own. no they won't fall down.

[punk4561]

Wow. He Can Sing Like Hell...

[bolotas13]

1 person never smelling dead roses in her life

[MrFuckilluminati]

Hey, Kurt liked The Beatles and did Nirvana sound anything like the Beatles? NOPE!

[ryjames06]

I would say that they were heavily influenced by Nirvana at the time but what the hell is wrong with that? Incredible song writing for such young kids.

[MsBridgett98]

They're "Unique" don't compare with Nirvana... They only have influences from it.. that's it!

Amazing Band!! Cheers!!

[FollowersofDamu]

man that dude can sing !

[markthemasher]

closetome wake up to yourself silverchair isnt a nirvana rip off,kurt may have been a better singer in your own mind but why dont you get a shotgun as he did and do yourself and all of us a favour

[cdixon5150]

I love the drum intro...great guitar riffs as well. Long live the chair!

[KIRSTENmusicLOVER]

THIS CROWD SUCKS!!!!!!!!!

[faridjabba]

@KIRSTENmusicLOVER lol

[bigchunks83]

no one is allowed to like this because nirvana existed. got it? stop enjoying music dammit!! 

[mevergaesgrande]

Silverchair sounds nothing like Nirvana. daniiel kinda looks like him when the hair is in the face..how old is daniel here?? 15, or 16?? how many of you dumbasses tried to like kurt to??

[KIRSTENmusicLOVER]

@mevergaesgrande I think he might be 17...but from what I heard, he was 15 or 16 when Frogstomp came out, then 2 years later came Freak Show so yeah...

[closetome]

nirvana rip-off, end off! and kurt was a far better singer, u obv. have no taste. this shit aint classic! not as shit as the vines though

[KIRSTENmjGaGa]

@closetome Haha Nirvana rip off? Seriously? You need help!

Why the hell are you watching this if you don't like this song or Silverchair? Just to make stupid comments to piss people off? At least their popular, but these days it's all about being original isn't it? BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!! Well i'll show all those crazy musicians! Gosh. What's with everyone now with Silverchair copying Nirvana! FUCK!

[thezakkuk]

This song is stuck in my head for 2 weeks now.. LOVE IT!!!! I'm gonna smell some dead roses

[0371998]

their long Hair....were the best style!!

for all the band

Please...grow It Grow it!

[0371998]

this Distortion and the voice are fuckin atmospheric! I love that stuff!

Daniel J. at 30 years old! working into one entire HArd Core life! 2003-2010 .. Now their music is good for the after houre club, lounge Club...!

1995-2003 punky and heavy metal!

Rock hard with full Force!

[CraigPhilipMyBeer]

One of my favorite Silverchair songs! Freak Show and Frogstomp are definitely their best albums.

[0371998]

Good BAnd! Good Song!

They smart and young!

This song is against the Old life...and all the shit around that! Immortal !!!!!!!!!!!

[AgeofFoolishness]

I hate when people compare them too nirvana,

they are 2 seperate bands, silverchair's music is more advanced and daniel is a way better singer

[mevergaesgrande]

Daniel is how old in this video?? 16 or 17?? how old was he when frogstomp was released?? 14 or 15 ? how old was kurt when he died. Daniel was definitely influenced by nirvana. who wasnt though? Nirvana was amazing. Silverchair is also amazing. there first 3 albums are amazing, but I dont like te 4th and 5th. hopefully this new album is wild

[fabiokuriyama]

Best concert. Best band. Best song. Best album everrrrrr.

[mopedmike1983]

[odin5469]

[ijoeamthecoolest]

They totally fuck up the beginning where all instruments come in after that opening drum part he doesn't have his guitar turned up

[spazzjunk]

i think it was on purpose. it sounds cool. different

[fairybread78]

No dude - it is spot on supposed to be like that. Awesome.

[qlino1313]

i like there hard style... but i like Nirvana better , but silverchair is awesome

[DaltonMoti]

@qlino1313 Nirvana sucked balls... they only had a few good songs.

[DaltonMoti]

@qlino1313 Nirvana sucked balls... they only had a few good songs.

[qlino1313]

@DaltonMoti noo nirvana are SOOO much better

[DaltonMoti]

@qlino1313 yea cuz Kurt killed himself... thats why.

[SDCDIABLO]

@DaltonMoti your an idiot man Nirvana is amazing, so is silverchair...

[Brichlhofn]

I LOVE playing this song on the drums

[tomitstube]

silverchair is so fucking good.

[beckbeck25]

he used to be so rad. now if 17 year old daniel saw the present daniel i think he'd blow his own head off.

[babycodi05]

he still is rad. i think that if he didnt change he would have been dead by 2000

stop living in the past. dan is great, happy, and not sad, depressed or starving like he was here.

[Brichlhofn]

Very true, babycodi

but their latest albums have been a bit weak

Its good to try new styles but its also important to stay true to your roots, which in Silverchair's case, is grunge

[babycodi05]

more of their albums have been more "young modern" than "frogstomp or freakshow". because who whats to hear a 30 yell about how much life sucks ? not me.

[qlino1313]

haha goo one , agreed

[dead7chick]

i completely agree

[teemunknee]

agreed, 100%

[DtylerJ]

nice drum beat

[GeorgeGrunge]

long live silverchair!!!!!

[FreakinEviI]

Cor... The crowd needs tips at cheering. Anyhow, sweet song.

[cvdfer159]

how old is he here..... like 16-17?

[jonzoid99]

He's 17 here...almost 18. This was in 1997 (feb i think....i was there, outside with my buddies).

[BreakingGlass77]

You were outside?

[LoserNumber34]

why weren't you inside??? >.>

[BreakingGlass77]

I need this entire show on DVD

[Ci4nyde]

can u apload it?

[TrentCobain]

Roses and Abuse Me are my favorite Silverchair songs to play on my guitar!!!!

[spaman3]

abuse me is quite easy

[oneznzeroz]

LOL at :08 Ben looks a little like Curly from the Three Stooges!! Whoop Whoop whoop!!

[fuzion17c]

LOL!

[cottoncase]

this is such a fantastic song

[tomitstube]

this is probably where daniel gets compared to kurt. blah blah

i think there's room for both, hate to see a world without one of them ever being in it.

silverchair's got their own sound.

[DaltonMoti]

@tomitstube  yea, but silverchair had more cool songs than nirvana.

[pedskon]

@tomitstube couldn't have said it better myself. Im a bigger fan of Nirvana, but Silverchair is freaking amazing as well.

[rockonladies]

damn love this album, love playing the songs.

[rockonladies]

Freakshow

[puremassacre9]

what album is this of?, frogstomp?

[WilliamANSTIS101]

freakshow

[basicphenomenon]

This reminds me of nirvana's Milk it, for some reason

[SmellingDeadRoses]

I likee my name ;) silverchair forever.

[jackwhite3redwhite]

yeah silverchair used to be so fucking awesome. suck now though

[BanOxyCred]

Take you mind with U

There's no room for two...

I can't handle both

handle both 4 U!

[tantoblade1000]

This song fucking rocks, makes me glad to be an australian, and have talent like this.

[acdc158]

Very cool! Check out Awesome Guitar Player Justin Parks from Hagerstown Playing Silverchairs "Tomorrow"15 Years Old

[BanOxyCred]

Silverchair, the fucking best ever in post-grunge heavy rock in 90's!

[marsvolta091]

man i love this era of silverchair.

[mopedmike1983]

@marsvolta091 Silverchair's best time. I was fifteen, lovin life and Silverchair!

[AxL360]

So fuckin good old silverchair, they did a good job in muchmusic

[tropiezospacial]

[VignetteProductions]

[lcaprioli]

TRUE

[raininmyst]

Fav song off Freak Show! Well this one and The Closing. This sounds just like version on the record Amazing!!

[ToxicCadaverine]

I agree with you, seems like listening the cd!

[biggaymal420]

god daniel is so HOTT!!

[devilizcious]

damn! d best song ever!

[seriouslyfreaky]

This Song rocks on so many levels

[tantoblade1000]

This song fucking rocks.

[templedown]

drop d is the greatest riff there's ever been. tony iommi from black sabbath started all of it.

[michaellovegrove]

drop d aint a riff dude, its a style of tuning

[chairhed4evadj]

hey when you pause on 1.44 you can see 1994 daniel

[guitarwiz420]

Fuck Paul Mac, look at how amazing the boys were before that fucking weirdo came along. It's a cryin shame.

[unemployable18]

all songs from this concert are on D tuning..

[VonJimboz]

You mean G-drop???

[unemployable18]

6 string down to D (instead of E)

[VonJimboz]

Ahhhh yeah you're right, my mind played tricks on me XD

[ariwitch]

i love this song!

my fav 'chair song

i blame paul mac for how they sound now! wanker!!!!!!!

still love them though xxx

[eatingcandy]

lol yeah! and I definitely blame him for his haircut

[SqueezeMyLemonBabe]

Led Zeppelin drum beat....

[pablodmdp]

Like in When the levee breaks, and Rock and roll

[SqueezeMyLemonBabe]

When the Levee Breaks is the one I was thinking

[AftermarketX]

smelling dead roses, fuck all you haters... I'm wearing a fucking wedding band though all this!

[whatdafok]

fuck all ya silverchair only the first two album are fucking great and the third one is badass.

[chairfankiki]

I liked Diorama best...but it's true, all of their stuff is great no matter what genre they were going for. It just shows how much talent they have to be able to change their sound and grow into all different types music. They are just maturing, and so is their music!

[blackandwhite30]

i wouldnt say their music was maturing.

it pisses me off when people use that word.

its changing

not maturing.

how is this old (and much better) style 'immature'? if you want to put it on a maturity scale, judging by the crowds their new lollipop rainbow genre is attracting, id say it was the less mature.

[Ibanezguy2007]

I personally think NEON BALLROOM was their best album, it displays Daniel Johns creativity far more, saying that, all of Silverchair's albums are amazing. All soo different, thats why i love them.

[spazzjunk]

I like the way he plays it here, slightly different to the album, specically in the first section.

[bhaallbherith]

good song.., yeah!!

[masteroffunky]

They already have started playing pop music...you do own YM don't you?

Everything was good up 'till YM. Although I'm not a huge fan of Diorama it still had it's moments.

I just think Daniel has run out of important things to write about because he has grown up and is now happy.

But I still got Frogstomp, Freak Show and Neon Ballroom to listen too.

[musicsquid]

young modern is not pop, its still alternative, pop is stuff like avril lavigne (UGH)

[masteroffunky]

It is leaning on the dance/pop style. It is a very keyboard heavy album.

It lacks emotion like Frogstomp - Diorama...hopefully DJ gets into more emtional songwriting in the next album.

[cobbo03]

That's because Paul Mac is also involved.

[pablodmdp]

who's that dude?

[rowley64]

He did for Silverchair what Yoko Ono did for the beatles, need i say more ?

[rowley64]

Yeh Paul Mac had involvement of all the keyboards and violins and daniels ridiculous song writting now, he's changed them

[Arachidus]

i agree with musicsquid, unless they start to play popy music..

[musicsquid]

to all you people bagging the new album- silverchair are great no matter what they're playing

[Servioloko]

The old albuns are the best. The grunge is dead n the new album(Young Modern)... Fucking shit!!

[BFelixZ]

Cheese?

[Corollarod]

100% agreed ill be a fan for life but i wont buy there newer albums!!!!

[Corollarod]

Silverchairs first two albums are my all time fav!!!!

My opinion on silverchair is that they lost all there heart for their music!!! back then they were trying to make a big impression on everyone and now that theyve done that they no longer need to sell records so they dont care

IT REALLY SHOWS!!!!

[deprivedsoul7]

I agree with you. They no longer are trying to get the attention from people. So they are not trying to be unique anymore or even write lyrics that have meaning and power. I UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR A CHANGE BUT THE CHANGE THEY WENT WITH IS JUST DISAPPOINTING. I don't think that this album is going to do well in sales. at least not as good as the first 4 albums did.

[Vincent4Life90]

Good move brother. Good move

[M4t3kkk]

gosh.. they fuc#ked up their own uniqe style by the new album... they should change band name for Goldentable no w :)

that was great, now they're recording shit

[lucas0908]

''Freak Show'' is always a wonderful memory in my mind!

[JarHed1982]

smelling deaddd rosesssssssss

[lucas0908]

GREAAAT MAAANN...!!!!!!1

[Wellington40]

Guess who´s back?! Of course, ROSES!!!!!!!

[robcastellani]
