    One word. BRAVE. Thank you for opening up & being so vulnerable. I relate to so much of this, especially the depersonalisation. It’s freeing hearing someone talk about it so publicly.

    I remember seeing silverchair at the vic in chicago during the neon ballroom tour when I was 16. Me and my 4 friends sat in the balcony and they played an extended version of anthem for the year 2000 where Daniel would point to sections of the crowd and have em shout "we are the youth". When he pointed to our side of the balcony my whole row of friends stood up and raised our fists and shouted "we are the youth" and it made Daniel laugh a little. That was one of my first concerts and i'll never forget that moment.

    Ben said what? Why would he say that other than jealousy or resentment? I'm a musician myself and Daniels songs are not "simple" they can go from simple to very complex without the orchestration which isn't that complex unless Van Dykes is involved. Even in a simple song like Tomorrow to hit the c sus over the c power chord in the chorus at the age of 14 isn't a choice that a kid would make or normally even hear over that chord... Daniel was obviously a child prodigy that developed into an amazing songwriter.

Because of this I’ve never been able to have the courage to sing publicly. Daniel is an inspiration because he’s fought through his struggles & he shares them with the world although he doesn’t have to & doesn’t owe anyone anything. He’s a beautiful soul, thanks for this, looking forward for more!! 💜💜💜

    Appreciate your humility, strength and vulnerability - this is a realness that is refreshing beyond words. I hope you know how many truly and sincerely not only appreciate you but also are rallying you on whether you are doing music or not, you are a valued human being. In the often cruel and surreal world of fame, I suspect you may not have always encountered the sincere and genuine support and understanding you (and we all) deserve, but please know, it is there, we are dotted all around and cheering you on always. My dear mum is the reason I write this to you, she's probably a bit older than most admirers of your work,, she is chronically ill and in pain 24/7 with amalgam illness, only 57 years young, but your story and your creations are something that bring her much joy and hope. Your music and what we know of your dear soul means a lot to her. She has felt such empathy for you all through the years and "after all these years" she is still every now and then mentioning to me how much you as an artist and person means to her. Thankyou for your contributions to the world, may you feel the celebration of that as much as we all do. I know you will feel the love on the comments thread here. Thankyou for meaning something to my mum, she is my everything and I thank you for making her life brighter without even knowing it. Bless you,
    Lots of love. xox - Liz from Melbourne and my mum Sal.

I remember going through a really terrible time and I went to the Big Day Out in Adelaide (I think it was 95??). One of the big headline acts was The Cult and I was REALLY excited. Before they came out, I was going around all the big tents, listening to bands playing, then I came across this tent, that was starting to fill up really quickly and the music was fantastic., exciting, energetic and FUN!! It was you and Siverchair and I was SO privileged to be at the beginning of greatness!! Right then I knew you were destined to be a star❤ I'll never forget it!❤

    Everything that Daniel tells in this video happens more often than not. It's just that people don't talk about it! Listening to him and realizing there are certain parts of being human we all just ignore might help so many people out there not to go through all of this all alone and as hard as he has been. Thank you so much, Daniel. This interviews are as previous as your albums. And congrats for being brave!!!!

    i just want to say: THANK YOU Daniel for being so raw and honest. I used to be on almost exactly the same selfdestructing path you were -20 year long battle with anorexia,bulimia , alcohol and medication abuse, anxiety ,etc. .... and i came on the other side :) i'm happy and healthy . Recovery was long and hard - but it was worth it! Wishing you absolutely the best, because you deserve it so much Dan!

    Well done for acknowledging you have a problem, and pushing through, and most importantly taking accountability. I'll be honest, I was massively dissapointed when I heard about the accident, but kudos for you for doing this, and taking accountability. Never thought you were a bad individual. I wish you every success on your journey.
    Most lovely part is when on you're on your self improvement journey it becomes almost like a skill. You become obsessed with wanting to learn as much as you can about yourself. We all have those demons, and as long as we get the lessons from this pain, it will allow us to move, and begin the healing process.
    Congrats on the new record. I couldn't stop listening to Cocaine Killa when I first heard it. I can totally understand why you wanted to part with your time in Silverchair. Makes sense to where you are now. With time, one day all the complications surrounding that time should hopefully resolve also.
    Wishing you all the best anywho.. Always on the look out for what you're doing.
    Much love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤️

    You’re a legend Dan. It’s good to see you in a better place. It’s pretty inspiring and strong of you to share your story through your words and your eyes. I love what you’ve shared, I love the music you have shared over the years especially from what affected me the most and changed my life the most, which is Silverchair.
    I also would like to give you my credit and my gratitude for what you and your music has helped me do. From being bullied in school and also battling my own mental health to now playing in a local grunge band in the Central coast. I owe you a lot for it and I hope you keep going not only just for music but life in general, keep it up! Much love❤️🤘

    It never easy to open up, Danial has had a life like few others ever will, having followed his musical path through the years this is just another extension of being " Daniel johns" a true talent in n every sense - being stripped bare and showing a side that few of us could ever understand or comprehend is a wonderful treat. Thank you for showing the side of life that is real with humility and grace and style

  • @PijamaGuitar

    It’s comforting to hear you, as someone I’ve followed and respected since Frogstomp (my first ever gig at 14yrs old was Silverchair & Everclear in Manchester ?’95 and have seen you live many times since) and has been and continues to be a huge musical inspiration to me, talk so honestly and open about anxiety, addiction and mental health issues - something I myself and many the world over are unfortunately familiar with. I was diagnosed with ADHD and ASD last year and have since started to turn a corner but still have some way to go. As a musician, I’m surrounded by guitars, a piano, my modular synthesizer and a good chunk of studio equipment but I’m still struggling to take comfort in writing music or simply playing for the joy of it - I’ll get there though.
    We’re all human, making our way through life on this earth as best we can. We all make mistakes, some pretty serious (myself included). It’s not easy.
    I’ve been mentally routing for you and sending positive vibes your way for years.
    FutureNever is an absolute masterpiece! Many a moments of hairs standing up on the back of my neck or being moved to tears. It’s truly fantastic!
    I obviously don’t know about your relationship with Ben and Chris apart from what has been portrayed in the media etc, but to hear they declined your olive branch offer and to hear what Ben said about you as a musician, fuck! I’m a fairly proficient musician and in my opinion, you are a musical genius! Keep being you and keep moving forward while paying no mind to negativity aimed to hurt.
    Looking forward to next weeks episode & the film once it’s out! Really enjoyed the podcast too, and also found it beneficial with regards to my own journey.
    Keep moving! You’ve got this (and the support of so many strangers the world over).
    Xx

      Apologising would make him stronger. He spat on me during the neon ballroom tour over his security and has deleted comments on my other account, there was nothing abusive I said, I didn't swear, there was no reason other than him censoring me because he is covering himself. That is not strong.

    I’ve loved this kid since we were both 15. SO glad to see him doing so well, so glad to have a brilliant new record from him, so glad that record did so well. glad he’s finding peace. as for Ben, there’s nothing simple about Daniel’s song. the simplest of his ideas is complex in its emotion and motivation. sure all of the bells and whistles are nice on the albums. but listen to “Emotion Sickness”, “Steam Will Rise”, “If You Keep Losing Sleep”, any Chair song….complex at its core

    This was incredibly difficult to watch. There still seems to be a profound sense of sadness in Dan's eyes. A sense of detachment. I live this with my spouse of 20 years going through a similar thing. It's an immensely intense and incredibly difficult job to do, but go on a journey through the mountains and caverns of your heart. Nurture, restore, befriend that broken child within. Go to the root of your pain and transform old tessellations and bring forth light. Light will replace the dark. Your gift of music to awaken humanity. Your light. 🤍 Supporting you on your journey. Much love 💜🌟

      Such a wonderful reply. You are an amazing person supporting your partner through their journey. I agree that FN can restore people, never in my life have I listened to music that had this impact on me. A complete multiscape of sound, rejuvenation, hope, validation, sometimes to painful to listen to, yet profoundly acknowledging of our own lives. This life isn't easy and some need to dig deeper than others into the tool bag. Your partner sounds like that and you do too for being a support system. I've had recent tantrums (adults are allowed eh) and just got overwhelmed by the situation. We do have bad days and it's how we cope and overcome eh! Loved reading your comment. FN is restorative. So many of us feel that so thank you xxx

Playing music helps, and Ana's Song is still my favorite song to play along with. Thank you for being brave Daniel. You continue to inspire me. Maybe I'll survive. It's tough finding your way out of a darkness you've created. If I don't survive, at least you helped me fight brother.
