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.

He was so shy and nervous but so charming at the same time, very interesting person

I went to school w them, he's always been intelligent & relatively humble...amazing to think what he's been thru

He's a beautiful person in and out.

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.

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.

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.

What a lovely soul 💜✨

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!

Awwww I love this 🤧 I’ve never seen an interview of him! I LOVED Silverchair ! What a cutie

Oh my heart ❤️ he seems so uncomfortable. To know now how much he suffered, I want to hug him so hard. Lol

Daniel is a beautiful man!! I like his sense of humor and I totally understand the anxiety/social anxiety! Stay strong Daniel!

Finally I get to watch this with great quality! ❤️

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.

Daniel is the best specimen

Thanks for uploading! I feel bad watching interviews because I know Daniel gets nervous but I enjoy hearing him talk about his music etc

One of the most awesome raw talents to come out of our country

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!

Like an angel.

Darling Daniel, I wish you so much love 🥰

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.

I remember watching this with my mother when I was a teenager and she said he’s so perfect, like a doll

A beautiful man.

Ah, back in the time when mental health discussion was still a taboo or something to laugh about. Glad we've made some progress.

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!

He was a beautiful guy. Inside and out.

Superstar - music that will never get old

Nice quality! Had never seen those last seconds of the video before 😯 So cool, thanks! ♡

I don't know how to take this...I feel for him.You can tell he was in such a dark place .

Awesome! Thanks alot

Great quote by him re music being underrated on how it affects emotion, so bloody true

He's always talking the piss and that's what people don't realise

Thanks.

You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat ❤

He's stolen my heaaaart❤

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.

thanx for the UP Beckmeiser!

Y love him and his sensitivity...

crush

He’s absolutely brilliant. His social awkwardness is so endearing. He’s my favorite vocalist of all Tim besides Ozzy. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Cutest and most rocking

Hes definitely autistic! Ugh i love him so much.

Thanks new HQ

his singing and talking voice are so different oh my lord

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.

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.

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

Wow he is so beautiful he is like an Anime doll. Perfectly chiselled features. Also very eloquent. Too young there to have arthritis attacks. 💔

This interviewer has no idea. Hoping for the best for Daniel.

The good days

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.

I agree good to him - he looks my son, my son is a spanking image early of him , he does. and awesome , period 1

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

Omg Rove is annoying. DJ is a fascinating guy…

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..

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..

handsome

he was struggling so hard here. rove was very insensitive

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.

How u do it Becky?

21 years ffuuk

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...

He reminds me of Peter Pan. Daffodil

Wtf are the audience laughing at?

There’s no way this guy is straight

I think he has lyme neuroborreliosis.

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 ...

He's wasted

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.

Daniel if you hear me Stop.

This guy is terminally self obsessed

Straight out with the victim mentality.. this guy plays it well.

So sad that he was drug addicted and had depressions till now. Loved SC so much !
