Oh my god. I finally found it! I have been searching for this song for 22 years. I was 9 years old and all I could remember was the video where a girl washes her hands in the sink til they bleed.
When my mom introduced me to this song when I was doing through my Anorexia phase (I sometimes go back through it) she told me to listen to this song and after a while I understood she was trying to tell me, it’s ok to eat and that it’s not healthy to rely on being skinny and not eating. Hence the open fire, she told me that he struggled with his body too and I was like “wow, I have someone I can relate to now.” 17 years old and supposed to be taking depression pills, but I’m trying to get better on my own. It’s a struggle really but I try.
+Donnie Blanko Frogstomp, not really. It's still the best record for the fans, 6 millions records sold in the world. Not really underrated ;) Freak Show, yes
Haranya Skyyat yea sure it sold 6 million albums but for the kind of album Frogstomp is, it should be compared to anything the big 4, Soundgarden Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam and Nirvana came out with. Frogstomp should stand as more of a benchmark for 90's grunge/rock scene, which it never really was. It's an underrated album for what it is, not in terms of record sales.
The fact that Daniel is still one of the only men who came out about his struggle with Anorexia makes me sad. This song was so long ago. I hope more men and boys can come forward some day.
I'm a transgender boy, idk if that counts but I've been going through it. My mom doesn't care because "if I was a real boy I wouldn't worry abt my weight" kinda sucks when she says that cuz I feel like shit going through jt
I struggle from anorexia nervosa myself and am now focusing on recovering. I relate to Johns' lyrics so much. Very emotional song and so strong and powerful.
My first brush with anorexia came around shortly before this song was first released. A lifetime later I still have an unhealthy relationship with food. The road ahead will be long but you will get through it.
Same but different. I have purging issues no bineging or anorexia issues. I'm not ready to recover but I know I have too. I've done a fair bit of damage from it and my shrinks like it has to be now and I know it has to be now but I'm just not ready to stop. I don't want to stop yet. I don't really care that I've done damage, I don't care about the pain from the damage, I don't care if I die. I'm just not ready yet.
I’m with you. I have a real new found appreciation for silverchair. I’ve been there with eating disorders as well but you can get through it. Slow small steps and one day at a time. Hold on to the vision of beating it. You will make it.
This song takes me back to the struggle of my days as a hardcore anorexic. Listening to it 8 months into recovery makes me teary eyes. I was in such an awful place. This song holds a special place in my heart.
When I was 14 and bulimic and anorexic I would ball my eyes out this song. I was all alone in my battle. I looked up an eating disorder therapist and begged my mom to take me. The therapist understood me. The first time an adult ever actually listened to me and validated me. Then she wanted to speak with my mom about my needs. My mom cannot take any criticism and ended up yelling at her and storming off. She yelled “ You will never see that woman again!” Yes, the reason for my eating disorder, alcoholic and drug abuse, depression and suicidal ideation in my youth primarily stemmed from my emotionally absent narcissist mother. I still am haunted by that memory to this day. Now at 38 I listen to this as I battle serious illness, brain and spinal injury all on my own as a single mom. Life is fucking brutal.
Thank you for sharing your story, that's so brave of you! I'm so sorry you are going through all of that, it really must be dreadful. But please try to accept it in your heart that you are worth it, you are beautiful and your life is very important. I wish you much love and a peaceful recovery, please be kind to yourself! 🥺❣️
This is the best song I've ever heard about anorexia to this date. A lot of songs that touch on this subject spell it out for you but this song is so artistic on addressing the issue and the pain that comes with it. Excellent music video and song.
I'm on a nostalgia kick tonight. I was almost 12 when this song came out and it was all over TRL. I remember Daniel Johns talking about his anorexia and it was the first time I realized guys could get eating disorders and I was able to help my cousin who was starting to starve himself.
+Rhaegar Targaryen His struggle becoming public must have been personally terribly difficult. Hopefully he understands that it has not been in vain. Like you, hearing about him was the first time I learned that men can be burdened with anorexia. I have no doubt he awakened many young people to that fact. I hope your cousin is doing well and his fight is in the rearview mirror.
This is easily one of the saddest yet most beautiful songs ever written in my opinion. Silverchair was far far to underrated and still to this day in 2019 I listen to their music and still feel the same feelings for their music as I did in the early 90s when I was a teenager and they came on the scene. Such talent and I hate that we didn't get more of them
this song helped me so much when I was a teen. eating disorders are heart wrenching and cruel. my heart is with anyone who is struggling, you are NOT alone. stay strong! xo
It breaks my heart to see this beautiful man in so much pain that he felt he needed to starve himself so as to disappear. I hope he has fully recovered.
I know what you mean, Connie......I was so scared for Daniel during the Neon Ballroom era.....it's a huge relief to know that he got the help he needed to beat anorexia and stay healthy. Good on ya, mate!
Love this song. So beautiful, but the meaning behind it is sad. If anyone has a ED like me and struggles with BD, you'd understand. But this song helped me through some rough times. You're not alone.
I used to starve myself when I was around 15. in those moments when my stomach burned from the hunger, I would listen to this song and cry to it. reminiscing right now.
@@RikisVlogs i got triggered Thursday morning by finding out a boy im still in love w has a gf after not being able to commit to me and broke things off w me in feb. a whole ass gf, when for months he told me he couldnt feel emotions so committing was hard for him. as soon as he started talking to her tho he locked it down. crushed me. so im on day 4 of barely eating and dreading seeing them at work tomorrow. yeah, we all work together. he just HAD to find a girl from work to decide was good enuff to be his gf. 😩😩😩
@@trailertrish I can understand how this could be triggering. I have completely stopped dating or wanting to date after my ex boyfriend commented how I was eating and picked on my Insecurities. I am actually going to an eating disorder program very soon to correct a lot of long term effects of trauma, one of them, eating disorders. I know this will sound cliche, but someone who does this will do poorly in other relationships if he fails to see how this could hurt you. You want someone else that is better and will be better understanding on details like this. I know its hurtful right now. I hope you feel better.
I remember first hearing this in high school and not connecting the dots as to what it was actually about. I didn't need to. I just felt someone's pain, addiction and personal struggle. Its depth and honesty meant alot to me in a world of Spice girls and Backstreet boys.
Once an interviewer said to Daniel Johns " I would like to get inside of your head" Johns replied emphatically "No you wouldn't" I guess we all have our demons.
philip sinclair Yeh, I saw that interview and those words reminded me of what Chester Bennigton ( Linkin Park) said interview before he took his life. he said, who wouldn’t like what goes on inside of my head , myself tells me it doesn’t like itself .
I absolutely LOVE the part where he says, "SANDPAPER TEARS CORRODE THE FILTH" and is all in the camera's face with a fierce look, then immediately collapses back into the chair when, "And I need you now somehow" comes back.
Silverchair is my favorite band of all time, and I thank God that Daniel had the courage to share his story through this song. At the time this song came out, I was dealing with my own issues and his music helped me get trough it. Thank You Daniel and Silverchair.
The way he's being pushed around in the wheelchair resonates with me so much. When I was in hospital for my eating disorder we literally weren't allowed to go anywhere without a wheelchair...
Late 90's/early 2000's was brutal on body image. I was 5"7 & 57kgs and I STILL hated myself. This song cut me to my core! Much love to Silverchair and epic respect for Daniel surviving this time and beyond ❤❤
Quando eu tinha 18 anos ouvi essa música todo santo dia,quando minha vida tinha virado de cabeça pra baixo,sempre ouvia antes de dormir no quarto com as luzes td apagadas... agora eu incio uma contagem de quantas vezes eu voltarei aqui em algum momento ruim da minha vida (façam a contagem de vocês tmb!) 1° vez em 2020,2° vez hoje dia 04/02/2023...força para todos nós..
And I need you now somehow.... the lyrics just speak to your soul. I’m glad Daniel made it through his Anorexia. We all have our struggles. How brave of him to share his with us. Especially back then this first came out.
I lost my friend to suicide, her name was Anna and she passed away on February 10, 2023. She was an angel in the lives of many and somehow, this song reminds me of her. She will always be my inexhaustible source of inspiration, she was a poet, she had a beautiful smile(she made the sound of laughter ❤️). Anna wants to be a teacher, same as me, every class I teach will be for her, she will always be the angel of my profession, she will always be with me. Thank you Anna Clara, for everything.
One of the best Silverchair' songs! Neon Balroom is a masterpiece! He was actually really gorgeous. All these years later and still deeply touched by this song
This song makes me think of an old friend I haven’t seen in years. She’s been through so much, and though we’ve lost touch, I hope she knows she’s still on my mind.
I fell in love with them after finding this song on a list of "pro ana" songs :/ Every word hit me so deeply and I completely connected with the way he felt about his eating disorder. I think he helped me get "over It"
***** I agree, but like everything it depends on perspective. I agree because as a hetero male my beauty definition is femininity which his androgynous face and body emanates. It's interesting, woman find beautiful men with womanlike traits gorgeous (Kobain), yet men find women with manly traits unappealing.
Way to go, Daniel! We're still with you all these years later. I hope you have fully recovered and are living the good life again. For many who don't know. Daniel John's battles anorexia and he wrote this song while getting treatment in rehab for his anorexia. Most of this album was written about his battle with anorexia and bulimia. Very sad. But the songs are absolutely masterpieces.
Unfortunately they haven’t been around for about 10 years now... here in the US they were never able to shake the “Nirvana Jr.” image, but they were HUGE in their native Australia. Daniel Johns is still a celebrity and shows up in tabloid magazines over there.
This song brings so much back :( Every melody and every word spoken, takes me back to the place where I thought I’d never overcome. Now a million years later-therapy.
Essa música, tem uma memória afetiva indescritível, que nos faz retornar aqui, em 2023 e nos deleitarmos com esse som foda! Gran Daniel! Saudade dessa banda!
Sim! Daniel compositor ímpar, a música honesta permanece para sempre! Músicos que inspiram outras pessoas! Sorte minha tê los como referência! Essa é minha música autoral,Memórias de um olhar, se puder assistir e se inscrever,será uma honra 😉🎤🎹🎸,obrigado Débora!th-cam.com/video/JV8-WKGWl8A/w-d-xo.html
Daniel Johns always had a tremendous lyrical mastery and the courage to sing about really misunderstood or taboo social things. You see it right from the start too, Shade on Frogstomp is an incredible song. Ana's Song is another real banger. Freakin' genius.
***** Naw..I was an old PJ fan. Doesn't take much to see these guys are different. Lots of bands have similarities. When they start sounding STP I'll call rip off :-)
I remember my English teacher showing us this song on class in 8th grade (last year). Nobody cared about the song or about it's meaning, but I loved it. Listening until this day. Now I get deeper what it really says.
I love this song, i discovered this song days ago. For my English oral project, I chose eating disorders because I feel closer to this subject because I suffered from severe anorexia 1 year ago. I love the music, the clip and the lyrics are very emotional and sad, I recognize myself in it, it makes me cry.
this song was horribly sad before, but this is about then Daniel was anorexic...that's why for this album and part of Diorama, he was so sickly-looking... this video used to make me cry
+Klutzy Mutt Your right. I'm surprised more people on this page did not comment about the origin of the song. Very insightful on your part and what courage by Daniel to admit and address an issue he personally dealt with.
He said in an interview that he could convince his mind that apples had razors in them and if his desire to not eat was that strong then I don't think he was misdiagnosed :(
Chris said that if anyone talked to him about food he would leave the room . That his parents didn’t want to “force” him because they were scared that he would run away
That key change for the chorus is basically a tritone modulation from Bb major/G minor to E major, but it’s made much smoother by using the V of Bb major as a sort of chromatic neighbor going from Bb-F--E. The shift from the major plagal cadence to the minor plagal cadence from the vocal line in the chorus is very cool as well. These guys were growing by leaps and bounds on this album.
I miss Silverchair....been a fan of theirs since I was 12 years old and I never got to see them in concert, it's my #2 on my bucket list so hopefully they will get back together :(
I remember once hearing this guy dedicated this song to his love Ana and I shook my head as this song is about something personal and tragic and he thought it was about Ana.
I have always loved this band and I have always came back to this song sometimes I don't even watch the video I just think of it and sing it in my head I absolutely love this song music has changed a lot over the years I don't find any other music having as much soul as this
I feel for Daniel. I had an eating disorder and it's a scary thing as it gets such a grip on you and your stomach actually shrinks so you don't feel hungry. I had no idea how thin I'd got. I wasn't even stressed it just happened. This is such an underrated song, didn't even get into the UK top 40, I bought it though.
Fall in love with this band over and over again, every year there will be new songs from other artists or bands but I will always give time to come back to Silverchair. And word of "love" for Silverchair is not enough to describe how grateful I am to Daniel Johns, for all the poetry, tunes, sadness, happiness and inspiration that made me who I am today, and I don't care what people say. And don't forget Ben and Chris too, they're so talented. I've been listening to them since Ana's Song, then from there repeating tracks from Frogstomp, Freak Show, Neon Ballroom, Diorama, Young Modern, and hopefully there will be another happy reunion. I thank God for their existence. This is a true expression of gratitude. So once again, thank you. Greetings from Indonesia.
This song came out around the same time I was battling anorexia. I was 19. Went from 140lbs to 97lbs in less than a year. This song helped me through it. Over time I forgot about Silverchair. I am glad that at 43, I have reconnected with their music. Always love this album however, it’s so unfortunate that Diorama escaped my peripheral at the time of its release in the U.S. Daniel Johns is an amazing singer, songwriter and producer. A true artist. Much love, respect and support for this man. ❤️
We were doing a lesson on subjects like anorexia in my Intensive Language Arts class in the eighth grade and my teacher played this video for us. I've loved it ever since 💖 thanks Mrs. Hedges
Please die Ana For as long as you're here we're not You make the sound of laughter and sharpened nails seem softer And I need you now somehow And I need you now somehow Open fire on the needs designed On my knees for you Open fire on my knees desires What I need from you Imagine pageant In my head the flesh seems thicker Sandpaper tears corrode the film And I need you now somehow And I need you now somehow Open fire on the needs designed On my knees for you Open fire on my knees desires What I need from you And you're my obsession I love you to the bones And Ana wrecks your life Like an Anorexia life Open fire on the needs designed On my knees for you Open fire on my knees desires What I need from you Open fire on the needs designed Open fire on my knees desires On my knees for you
Pretty courageous to bare you soul like this especially as a world famous person. Inspirational for anyone who has suffered from eating disorders, mental problems, disabilities, drug addiction etc… I know today everything is classified as some illness so drug companies can make money but to actually know what it is to be knocking on deaths door for an illness that will take your life & to know how hard this must of been for Daniel johns to sing live etc… no wonder the success of the band, not many people can do this.
Oh my god. I finally found it! I have been searching for this song for 22 years. I was 9 years old and all I could remember was the video where a girl washes her hands in the sink til they bleed.

Those pills tend to hurt more than help .. Good for you . Stay strong -- you are stronger than you think and can get through anything .
Anorexia is not a "phase".
Easily one of the most underrated and forgotten bands of the 90's.
musicsaves97 Easily!
+musicsaves97 The Frogstomp and Freak Show albums were underrated.
+musicsaves97 Failure and Hum are quite underrated too...

As a teen I was so in love with this man, in my 30s now and that hasn’t changed! He is phenomenal!
Closest thing today to Silverchair I’ve heard … “Whispering Wolf” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🎸
same here
Like an alien
Same here!
He's only in his 40s, there's still a chance
For anyone who understands the lyrics
You are brave
And I wish you health and strength
Well said

Eu aos meus 19 anos...
E como vc está hoje ?

And I need you now somehow.... the lyrics just speak to your soul. I’m glad Daniel made it through his Anorexia. We all have our struggles. How brave of him to share his with us. Especially back then this first came out.
I lost my friend to suicide, her name was Anna and she passed away on February 10, 2023. She was an angel in the lives of many and somehow, this song reminds me of her. She will always be my inexhaustible source of inspiration, she was a poet, she had a beautiful smile(she made the sound of laughter ❤️). Anna wants to be a teacher, same as me, every class I teach will be for her, she will always be the angel of my profession, she will always be with me. Thank you Anna Clara, for everything.
❤
Sending love ❤️ hold on to those lovely memories of her 🥰
Meus pêsames aí amigo... 🖤Certeza que ela está em um lugar melhor agora 🙏
I’m sorry for your loss may she rest in peace ❤
One of the best Silverchair' songs! Neon Balroom is a masterpiece!
He was actually really gorgeous.
All these years later and still deeply touched by this song
This song makes me think of an old friend I haven’t seen in years. She’s been through so much, and though we’ve lost touch, I hope she knows she’s still on my mind.
This is so good but you must hear “World” or “Cage” by SLT 🔥🌎🔥🌎🔥
I fell in love with them after finding this song on a list of "pro ana" songs :/ Every word hit me so deeply and I completely connected with the way he felt about his eating disorder. I think he helped me get "over It"

+Gabriel Nunes krl mano
What other pro Ana songs are there??
But it's not Pro ana, quite the reverse.
Yeah, cause he totally wasn't on heroin or anything
He was actually really gorgeous.
Monika Molčanová Probably not in this video.
*****
I agree, but like everything it depends on perspective. I agree because as a hetero male my beauty definition is femininity which his androgynous face and body emanates.
It's interesting, woman find beautiful men with womanlike traits gorgeous (Kobain), yet men find women with manly traits unappealing.
kat rhcp Thankyou from a guy that appreciates your words. I am much the same. Surrounded by Roid boys that are obsessed with themselves. You go girl!
+Monika Molčanová Your comment makes me cringe so much. Be happy for him, he gained weight! Daniel was going through a horrible thing.
+Pedro Moniz Teixeira truexD (Cobain just saying)
I can’t believe there was a time where great songs like that would play in the radios, and now we have Cardi B.
Na altura a sua mãe queixava-se que dava silverchair na rádio e não o Roberto Carlos
Camilla Brandão I can't either. You are cute though.
Shit music has always existed and always will exist, just like good music.
Tens toda a razão Camilla já houve mais bom gosto.
I agree.....
As someone who developed anorexia as the compulsive aspect of OCD… I cried so hard seeing this for the first time tonight. Brilliant.
Alguém do Brasil vai ouvir esta musica em 2021?! Grande sucesso no final dos anos 90 aqui no Brasil!! O que é sucesso hoje em dia ?!
Facção travazap

Hoje em dia só tem porcaria 👍

Way to go, Daniel! We're still with you all these years later. I hope you have fully recovered and are living the good life again. For many who don't know. Daniel John's battles anorexia and he wrote this song while getting treatment in rehab for his anorexia. Most of this album was written about his battle with anorexia and bulimia. Very sad. But the songs are absolutely masterpieces.
This band is a Gem on its own. They have left so much memories of our own listening to then and now.
One of the best Silverchair' songs! Neon Balroom is a masterpiece!
Roberto Noir I agree. Their best album imo
I had it as a teen and played it to death. So good.
This and apcs mer de noms are true classics
Roberto Noir it is!! 💯💯
My fave album for life.
Silverchair is so underated
Nìrvana's clone, as Bush
captain obvious
Newton Markham they really are! 🧡
underrated in usa but famous in asia, south america, europe
@Mike and Carol Harrington blame us tv/radio stations those day.
What a band what a song. These guys should be way way bigger.
Unfortunately they haven’t been around for about 10 years now... here in the US they were never able to shake the “Nirvana Jr.” image, but they were HUGE in their native Australia. Daniel Johns is still a celebrity and shows up in tabloid magazines over there.
I'm literally in love with this song
No matter how many times I listen to this song, I always cry.
I'm almost 39 and still love this guys songs like it's the first time I'm listening
essa música marcou minha adolescência e até hoje faz parte das minhas playlists
Digo o mesmo
I miss my younger self listening to this. The 90's were awesome. This album....❤️
Aqui novamente em 2022, a nostalgia continua!!! Grande sucesso no final dos anos 90 aqui no Brasil !!
🤘🤘🤘🤘
Esse hino continuará para sempre 🤘🤘

U gotta hear this :) !!!!!!!!!
Q banda foda q foi,pena q teve uma curta trajetória...
é noix emerson
This song brings so much back :(
Every melody and every word spoken, takes me back to the place where I thought I’d never overcome. Now a million years later-therapy.
Essa música, tem uma memória afetiva indescritível, que nos faz retornar aqui, em 2023 e nos deleitarmos com esse som foda! Gran Daniel! Saudade dessa banda!
Sim!
Daniel compositor ímpar, a música honesta permanece para sempre!
Músicos que inspiram outras pessoas!
Sorte minha tê los como referência!
Essa é minha música autoral,Memórias de um olhar, se puder assistir e se inscrever,será uma honra 😉🎤🎹🎸,obrigado Débora!th-cam.com/video/JV8-WKGWl8A/w-d-xo.html
Sim claro
2021
Daniel Johns always had a tremendous lyrical mastery and the courage to sing about really misunderstood or taboo social things. You see it right from the start too, Shade on Frogstomp is an incredible song. Ana's Song is another real banger. Freakin' genius.
Minha adolescência... ouvindo essa música no rádio na varanda de casa... que nostálgico, que saudade...
He's so beautiful in every way! Talent, voice, and those haunting eyes 🧡❤
Neon Ballroom is by far my favorite album ever. This song is one of the things that cemented that for me.
Their last "Good" album. But Frogstomp is by far the best, & just my humble opinion.
kat rhcp frogstomp is fucking amazing of course its immature they were children
***** Naw..I was an old PJ fan. Doesn't take much to see these guys are different. Lots of bands have similarities. When they start sounding STP I'll call rip off :-)
mine too
I remember my English teacher showing us this song on class in 8th grade (last year). Nobody cared about the song or about it's meaning, but I loved it. Listening until this day. Now I get deeper what it really says.
one of the most relatable songs I have ever heard..
Essa é uma das melhores músicas de todos os tempos, sempre ouvida.
💯
band during my high school days..still luv these guys
I love this song, i discovered this song days ago. For my English oral project, I chose eating disorders because I feel closer to this subject because I suffered from severe anorexia 1 year ago. I love the music, the clip and the lyrics are very emotional and sad, I recognize myself in it, it makes me cry.
Summer of 99 will live forever.
This song was released in the middle of 1999 - winter.
+CheesyTV summer for america
summer of 97 was better...
th-cam.com/video/cxuYKH0TJ0I/w-d-xo.html U gotta hear this!!!!!
i love silverchair
This is so good but you must hear “World” or “Cage” by SLT 🔥🌎🔥🌎🔥
These are brave words. Thank you Daniel. You are my hero.
great song. bring back my memory . 90s
I struggle from anorexia and this song is extremely powerful, every time I listen to it I feel so understood…
Thanks Daniel ❤️
this song was horribly sad before, but this is about then Daniel was anorexic...that's why for this album and part of Diorama, he was so sickly-looking... this video used to make me cry
+Klutzy Mutt Your right. I'm surprised more people on this page did not comment about the origin of the song. Very insightful on your part and what courage by Daniel to admit and address an issue he personally dealt with.
It hurts me that he felt this way, I love Daniel and he really did deserve more.
Me 2
He said in an interview that he could convince his mind that apples had razors in them and if his desire to not eat was that strong then I don't think he was misdiagnosed :(
Chris said that if anyone talked to him about food he would leave the room . That his parents didn’t want to “force” him because they were scared that he would run away
Nunca que uma música desta pode ser esquecida.!💓💕

Nunca mesmo❤️

Nunca será esquecido essa música 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 4ever song
That key change for the chorus is basically a tritone modulation from Bb major/G minor to E major, but it’s made much smoother by using the V of Bb major as a sort of chromatic neighbor going from Bb-F--E. The shift from the major plagal cadence to the minor plagal cadence from the vocal line in the chorus is very cool as well. These guys were growing by leaps and bounds on this album.
This song is my youth, my struggle against anorexia nervosa. It still means so much to me.
I miss Silverchair....been a fan of theirs since I was 12 years old and I never got to see them in concert, it's my #2 on my bucket list so hopefully they will get back together :(
I remember once hearing this guy dedicated this song to his love Ana and I shook my head as this song is about something personal and tragic and he thought it was about Ana.
I love this song so much
This is so good but you must hear “World” or “Cage” by SLT 🌎🔥🌎
This was my favourite silverchair song when i was 10, it still is now.
Saudades desse tempo.... ganhei esse álbum de presente de aniversário... e o melhor.. com o encarte todo original!! Kkkk
I have always loved this band and I have always came back to this song sometimes I don't even watch the video I just think of it and sing it in my head I absolutely love this song music has changed a lot over the years I don't find any other music having as much soul as this
I feel for Daniel. I had an eating disorder and it's a scary thing as it gets such a grip on you and your stomach actually shrinks so you don't feel hungry. I had no idea how thin I'd got. I wasn't even stressed it just happened. This is such an underrated song, didn't even get into the UK top 40, I bought it though.
I remember he had anorexia, and then seeing how skinny he was in this video. He was so open and raw and vulnerable in his music, and it's beautiful.
1999 tempo bom que não volta mais
Pode passar o tempo que passar, mas eu nunca vou parar de ouvir as músicas de Silverchair ❤❤
Até 1999 foi bom, de 2000 pra cá, só ladeira a baixo.
this is so emotional, I love this song and listen to it everyday.
Fall in love with this band over and over again, every year there will be new songs from other artists or bands but I will always give time to come back to Silverchair. And word of "love" for Silverchair is not enough to describe how grateful I am to Daniel Johns, for all the poetry, tunes, sadness, happiness and inspiration that made me who I am today, and I don't care what people say. And don't forget Ben and Chris too, they're so talented. I've been listening to them since Ana's Song, then from there repeating tracks from Frogstomp, Freak Show, Neon Ballroom, Diorama, Young Modern, and hopefully there will be another happy reunion. I thank God for their existence. This is a true expression of gratitude. So once again, thank you. Greetings from Indonesia.
This song came out around the same time I was battling anorexia. I was 19. Went from 140lbs to 97lbs in less than a year. This song helped me through it. Over time I forgot about Silverchair. I am glad that at 43, I have reconnected with their music. Always love this album however, it’s so unfortunate that Diorama escaped my peripheral at the time of its release in the U.S. Daniel Johns is an amazing singer, songwriter and producer. A true artist. Much love, respect and support for this man. ❤️
Depression can hit us at any level I'm glad he recovered from this disease
Its not a disease. Its a tutor
We were doing a lesson on subjects like anorexia in my Intensive Language Arts class in the eighth grade and my teacher played this video for us.
I've loved it ever since 💖 thanks Mrs. Hedges
Proud Newcastle girl all grown up and still love these guys so much talent.
Please die Ana
For as long as you're here we're not
You make the sound of laughter
and sharpened nails seem softer
And I need you now somehow
And I need you now somehow
Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you
Imagine pageant
In my head the flesh seems thicker
Sandpaper tears corrode the film
And I need you now somehow
And I need you now somehow
Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you
And you're my obsession
I love you to the bones
And Ana wrecks your life
Like an Anorexia life
Open fire on the needs designed
On my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires
What I need from you
Open fire on the needs designed
Open fire on my knees desires
On my knees for you
This song brought back the exact place and feeling of the first time I heard this
great comment
That's exactly how I feel. Thanks
Kurt is smiling.And enjoying. Cause its a good song.
Que tiene que ver Kurt aquí ?
Don't see the sense in fighting about personal points of view...live and let live and just enjoy this glorious peace of art ❤
Closest thing today to Silverchair I’ve heard … “Whispering Wolf” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🎸🔥
Great Australian band!
We’re a New Grunge band bringing back the big 90’s sound, check us out!
3:00 Open fire on my needs desiiiiiiiiiiigned! (Really touched my heart) 😭 ❤️
Time of my adolescence, time that MTV had content, Thanks Silverchair.
Eu também sinto saudade
Pretty courageous to bare you soul like this especially as a world famous person. Inspirational for anyone who has suffered from eating disorders, mental problems, disabilities, drug addiction etc… I know today everything is classified as some illness so drug companies can make money but to actually know what it is to be knocking on deaths door for an illness that will take your life & to know how hard this must of been for Daniel johns to sing live etc… no wonder the success of the band, not many people can do this.
Absolutely LOVED Siverchair growing up and still do!
Silverchair is so underated
He was actually really gorgeous.
Nunca que uma música desta pode ser esquecida.!💓💕
*Daniels had my heart since I was 13,I'm now 39 and still adore him*
