Daniel Johns is humble and softly spoken. He seems quite nervous but handled this interview well. Daniel started very young being a creative and talented singer/songwriter. Always will be a fan since Silverchair. Thank You for sharing this clip. G'day from Sydney😌😊
When rove and the crowd laughed about using pills and alcohol as therapy... no wonder so many of us have addiction issues, thats the reality of Australia back then. They laugh until it's a problem don't they . Then comes the judgement.
It’s true bro shit is bad all over the world. He had anorexia here because of trauma hopefully we move from a place where we work through the trauma so we don’t cope in ways that lead to things like arthritis at the age of like 12
When you watch this interview, it's kinda sad to hear Daniel talk about drinking and how he doesn't really like it.. fast forward a few years and what a massive difference his whole personality became!
Incredibly insightful and empathetic description of depression from Rove here: "So what was it, you were just going around being really moody and brooding all the time and going gruff gruff oh nobody understands me gruff gruff gruff?". Fortunately our understanding of depression has come a long way since then.
I remember first time I heard Silverchair, just loved them 'the only way to get there is to go straight down' , just a fantastic album. Great listening.
This is one of my favorite artists song writers -bands- songs - style - i even like the fact that he is Australian. One of my favorite songs of his it's called fault-line cheers man . Daniel is such a huge inspiration for so many people all around the world. True artist!
Poor guy. He looks SO incredibly uncomfortable. I feel sad for him. 😢 I hope he has found peace and physical recovery. I love you, Daniel. Everyone does. ❤
3:45 "What about alcohol....have you tried that?" "No. Alcohol exacerbates the problem I think." That little exchange right there....is kinda painful to see. Because it presages what will eventually come. I feel for Dan. He's such a good smart sensitive human being....and I get why he eventually became so addicted to various things, including alcohol. It's because the WORK....for a while. And then they stop working. And then....they exacerbate the problem. 20 years after this interview....sure enough, that's where we're at. I went through it myself, and it's painful to see this...knowing Daniel would go through it soon enough too. I kinda wish he had just stuck to what he was doing around Diorama....someone working on that album's recording once remarked that Dan smoked more weed than Snoop Dogg around that time. But he seemed in a good place. Alcohol....is just so dangerous. I get needing SOMETHING to help with creativity and...life. I just hope he gets well soon, so to speak. I just want him to be happy now.
At 3:33 where he says my hand just shakes and I can’t stop it no matter what I do despite the pills… first of all the fact that everybody laughed at that is fucked up… second, I’m almost 26 and I’ve had that my whole life (anxiety) and legit didn’t know until 5 months ago. Even now with pills, he’s right it doesn’t stop. And the douchy host talking about trying alcohol, that ain’t funny either. I drink a lot and Daniel is right, it just adds to the problem. Just some insight.
Hands on the face = nervousness… I never knew until a previous video I saw with him and a commentator let me know, and now I notice his hand is almost always on his face … he’s so beautiful omg❤
@Drake Bell how the hell are you, Daniel Johns, when your name and picture are completely different. Stop trying to be a stupid imposter and leave us all alone 😡
Call Daniel John's podcast, there's a part where he's looking at his childhood memories which I know it makes him feel good, with reciting pulp fiction his favorite movie which I love as well, and his teddy bear, when he gets to Natalie's letters, I think it broke his heart for a minute, it wasn't a bad letter it didn't sound like, I think it was more of a complicated letter but she still loves him as a person, you just wanna hug him right there.
Even at an early age he didn't like doing interviews...he had mentioned that he has said everything he had to say through the music....there was nothing left
lmao. that's the 90's for yah( i grew up in that amazing and confusing time as a kid, and it was a blessing and a curse, hahahah, do to, having hardly any tech and big block t.v.s and cable, with vhs tapes to record anything good off .m.t.v., and every interviewer that interviewed a music artist, was a lil dumb or clueless to what to ask and etc)
Definitely, Daniel Johns is one of the Most Handsome Man in the world...:)❤🎉Now, his 44 years old got age but still looking Handsome...:)Daniel Johns is like Me I'm very Shy Person when Somebody is talking to Me...:)Me and Daniel Johns are same Shy Person I understand him why his Interviews during his Teenage Years his so Soft spoken and very Shy Person.
Actually bef the release of diorama he had created a hard Rock album.. but he deleted it... i just hope it was part of diorama... like smashing pumpkin two cds of the moloncollie album... shud have done that approach... if they have done that Silverchair will be more huge during that era..
@@mfaiden4088 It does matter because why did the album being sold outside Australia?if its only for Australian Market then why it is sold world wide? if its only for themselves then why selling it?
The weight loss wasn't from drugs and alcohol, though he has been known to partake for sure. The weight loss was mainly from his anorexia nervosa, which then caused issues with his joints and muscles.
@@castoroy14 will he ever tell the real story?.... but it's not in his interests to tell the whole story. edit: i'm sorry Dan.... it's not my place to say... i've deleted what i shouldn''t have said.
I can just imagine DJ being so magnetic, that energy is difficult not to react to. Super charismatic. I hope he wasn't abused as well, some people have no issue crossing boundaries :(
There was a video of him being kissed by some older dude and another guy putting his hands on his thigh. Kids must be protected in this crazy industry.
Don’t bash me but he seems very feminine almost questioning if he is straight but I read online he is but he’s so beautiful and soft spoken and maybe it’s his long lashes fluttering lol idk either way he’s stunning’
seen his latest interview with Carrie B on CH.10 The Project... Dan obviously needs professional help and a lot seems very similar to someone's symptoms of abusing various substances... what does Dan's band name Dissociatives mean?... we'd all like Dan to be happy and well... i've said it before, Dan should grab a few friends and go backpack the world and become a nobody for a while.... but the problem seems Dan doesn't wish to leave certain things alone, or behind him... AND he really dissed the fk out of Ben and Chris too.... he's not the Dan we used to know and love, he's in trouble within himself.... let's hope he finds rest in his mind.... he admitted he went to rehab, not for alcohol, for voices in his head but said nothing of drugs.... i've known people who have taken LSD, DMT, ICE, and other substances and have never been the same again... one person has been lost for near 30yrs now after taking a trip.... i think Dan's close to lost now, even sadder is i think Dan thinks it too.
Rove tries to be funny but really he's not , a bit like Dave Hughes not sure how they make it on TV , the difference is Daniel is his normal self and 100 times funnier and charismatic then Rove ...
@@gaiagoddess5360. It was a head on collision. "The woman was taken to John Hunter Hospital for further treatment." - not hurt badly but hurt enough to go to hospital. He made no mention of them. Only his struggles. I’m not criticizing him because I don’t like him. He’s mentally Ill and part of that is self obsession. I’ve seen this before. Fame is lethal to some people. They experienced such highs early on they often abuse drugs to try and maintain that feeling and become self consumed. Celebrity rehab was a show for a reason. Famous people and child stars often self destruct and it has something to do with the ego and dopamine.
@@inobi30 All reports I read said they were treated at the scene and released. He did mention them in his IG post. If you don't like him, why are you commenting on a video about him? It seems you don't know much about him because his fans (and those who know him well) have all said he's one of the most humble musicians there is. He said so many things over the years that show this (that they don't deserve awards or fame). Not all mentally ill celebrities are the same.
I have to say as a strait man, Daniel Johns might be the one of the most good looking men on the planet during this time. Sheesh.
Yess that true❤...
Oh trust me, you're def not the only straight dude to have an aesthetic crush on Dan. I'm not even bi, but do I find Daniel attractive? Uh..very.
🧐
@@avedicattractive. Mate you can say another bloke looks alright but only pooftas think other guys are attractive.
He isn't straight, man
How can a person that could rock so hard at such a young age sound so shy and humble in interviews. Truly talent speaks for itself.
They stayed at home , n practice , too shy for social time wasting
a lifetime of hiding in the closet
Being genuinely shy ,the mark of a star.
He's not American is why
@@imkuntox projecting?
I went to school w them, he's always been intelligent & relatively humble...amazing to think what he's been thru
Your comment is gold. 😭
he seems so sweet😭
He was so shy and nervous but so charming at the same time, very interesting person
Yess.dia tampan sekali saat muda.i love daniel young❤
He's a beautiful person in and out.
Daniel is a beautiful man!! I like his sense of humor and I totally understand the anxiety/social anxiety! Stay strong Daniel!

What a lovely soul 💜✨
@Russell White dude mental illness IS real even if you can’t see it. Now f off
When rove and the crowd laughed about using pills and alcohol as therapy... no wonder so many of us have addiction issues, thats the reality of Australia back then. They laugh until it's a problem don't they . Then comes the judgement.
It's not a problem till you abuse it, everything in moderation
It was an different time back then.
Drugs were promoted in the grudge/ rock industry ..
He was talking about pain killers. Remember Rove is a comedian and Daniel jokes around a lot too.
It’s true bro shit is bad all over the world. He had anorexia here because of trauma hopefully we move from a place where we work through the trauma so we don’t cope in ways that lead to things like arthritis at the age of like 12
Awwww I love this 🤧 I’ve never seen an interview of him! I LOVED Silverchair ! What a cutie
Finally I get to watch this with great quality! ❤️
I remember watching this live on tv when I was 10 years old, I was a massive Silverchair fan! I miss this band and era so much!
I remember watching Rove when the planes hit the towers on 9/11.
When you watch this interview, it's kinda sad to hear Daniel talk about drinking and how he doesn't really like it.. fast forward a few years and what a massive difference his whole personality became!
He was a beautiful guy. Inside and out.
Sorry is a beautiful guy.
dude's relationship record is impressive natalie imbruglia and one model..
Thanks for uploading! I feel bad watching interviews because I know Daniel gets nervous but I enjoy hearing him talk about his music etc

EXACTLY... just painful to hear and watch
Daniel's a genius. A musical genius. quite eccentric and that's to be expected. I feel so sad he went through this painful condition.
I remember first time I heard Silverchair, just loved them 'the only way to get there is to go straight down' , just a fantastic album. Great listening.
One of the most awesome raw talents to come out of our country

Daniel is the best specimen
Poor guy. He looks SO incredibly uncomfortable. I feel sad for him. 😢 I hope he has found peace and physical recovery. I love you, Daniel. Everyone does. ❤
I remember watching this with my mother when I was a teenager and she said he’s so perfect, like a doll
Really? He looks terrible here, so skinny and like he didnt take a shower in weeks !
Ya tuhan menciptakan wajahnya sempurna banget.❤
A beautiful man.
I can relate to his pain struggles. I live the arthritis thing every day. The best wishes to a very talented and great looking guy.
Oh my heart ❤️ he seems so uncomfortable. To know now how much he suffered, I want to hug him so hard. Lol
Superstar - music that will never get old
Nice quality! Had never seen those last seconds of the video before 😯 So cool, thanks! ♡
You’re welcome!
Like an angel.
Frog Stomp is an album I still listen to from start to finish, they were GREAT! it's so hard to believe how young they were.
Daniel has the bluest most beautiful eyes 💙
Awesome! Thanks alot
:)
He had so many struggles with health so young. Such a beautiful guy.

Great quote by him re music being underrated on how it affects emotion, so bloody true
I don't know how to take this...I feel for him.You can tell he was in such a dark place .
Call Daniel John's podcast, there's a part where he's looking at his childhood memories which I know it makes him feel good, with reciting pulp fiction his favorite movie which I love as well, and his teddy bear, when he gets to Natalie's letters, I think it broke his heart for a minute, it wasn't a bad letter it didn't sound like, I think it was more of a complicated letter but she still loves him as a person, you just wanna hug him right there.
Did it sound like she was really torn?
Damn, he read aloud a letter from her?
his singing and talking voice are so different oh my lord
he got this more feminem voice as he got older freakshow and frogstomp he sounded more aussie, love daniel sm
yes , it´s perceptive
Suaranya sangat lembut😢❤
Frogstomp was recorded when he was 14, I believe. No way you'd think that powerful voice was from a 14yr old!
Ah, back in the time when mental health discussion was still a taboo or something to laugh about. Glad we've made some progress.
He's stolen my heaaaart❤
Must have been so wild for Rove to see Dan here and then come out in The Dissociatives era... lol Insanely different
Darling Daniel, I wish you so much love 🥰
Even at an early age he didn't like doing interviews...he had mentioned that he has said everything he had to say through the music....there was nothing left
Thanks.
Cutest and most rocking
He's always talking the piss and that's what people don't realise
Daniel Jhons!! ❤
This interviewer has no idea. Hoping for the best for Daniel.
❤️
❤️👋🙏
lmao. that's the 90's for yah( i grew up in that amazing and confusing time as a kid, and it was a blessing and a curse, hahahah, do to, having hardly any tech and big block t.v.s and cable, with vhs tapes to record anything good off .m.t.v., and every interviewer that interviewed a music artist, was a lil dumb or clueless to what to ask and etc)
That's rove McManus he had his own live show he was actually a better interviewer than other tv hosts at the time!
Love watching interviews of Daniel, but I hate knowing how terrible they must've been for him.
He’s absolutely brilliant. His social awkwardness is so endearing. He’s my favorite vocalist of all Tim besides Ozzy. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Definitely, Daniel Johns is one of the Most Handsome Man in the world...:)❤🎉Now, his 44 years old got age but still looking Handsome...:)Daniel Johns is like Me I'm very Shy Person when Somebody is talking to Me...:)Me and Daniel Johns are same Shy Person I understand him why his Interviews during his Teenage Years his so Soft spoken and very Shy Person.
Anyone notice the strange look Daniel has @ 7:38?
You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat ❤
still love frog stomp and freak show till this day .
Hes definitely autistic! Ugh i love him so much.
Actually bef the release of diorama he had created a hard Rock album.. but he deleted it... i just hope it was part of diorama... like smashing pumpkin two cds of the moloncollie album... shud have done that approach... if they have done that Silverchair will be more huge during that era..
Nah Diorama was perfect and a masterpiece. No way it should have been anything other than it was.
@@mfaiden4088 Not in other parts of theworld at that time...maybe in Australia only...
@@buatkitatermenung9224 I don't think other countries matter lol, the proof is in the pudding, It's a fabulous album!

thanx for the UP Beckmeiser!
this is the real Daniel.... fans will ignore it, but Daniel today isn't the Daniel in this interview... not even close.

@@AVportau Don't worry about it.
Funny, I was watching this interview and thinking about how little he's changed. No idea what you're talking about.
So what do people think?? He got so identified with SilverChair, the lead singer and fame just messed him up, I know it would do the same to me..
The good days
Wow he is so beautiful he is like an Anime doll. Perfectly chiselled features. Also very eloquent. Too young there to have arthritis attacks. 💔
I agree good to him - he looks my son, my son is a spanking image early of him , he does. and awesome , period 1
5:33 Clearly Rove has never had depression lol
How u do it Becky?
Omg Rove is annoying. DJ is a fascinating guy…
he was struggling so hard here. rove was very insensitive
Robe is clown and only interested in self gratification
Wanna see a joke? Watch rove interview Prince. I was so let down when I saw that live
There seemed to be some sexual tension here, I hope he wasn’t abused by the industry like many others have been. It would explain a lot.
I can just imagine DJ being so magnetic, that energy is difficult not to react to. Super charismatic. I hope he wasn't abused as well, some people have no issue crossing boundaries :(

handsome
That was such a lovely interview with Daniel Johns. Rove was a great tv host until he sold out.
is this a laugh track? how are people laughing at the serious shit he's saying? the 2000s were wild.... as were the 90s and 80s...
Don’t bash me but he seems very feminine almost questioning if he is straight but I read online he is but he’s so beautiful and soft spoken and maybe it’s his long lashes fluttering lol idk either way he’s stunning’
21 years ffuuk
He reminds me of Peter Pan. Daffodil
Lol that Daffodil could have had Any Woman or Girl in Australia at one time ✌️🤣
Wtf are the audience laughing at?

There’s no way this guy is straight
He's bi
I think he has lyme neuroborreliosis.
nope
He had reactive arthritis
