Subject: Daniel and Sweep sitting in a tree..

Hey everybody!

Um just so that you guys know the subject line is a joke so don't get on my case about it k? great! Hmm well how is everyone? Good I hope.. hmm well I think so that I don't make this list any later I'm going to get straight to the point and start answering last weekes questions, which reminds me .. to all you new people out there you CAN write about ANYTHING you want as long as it's silverchair related alright? you don't always have to just answer the questions of the week.. although you're very welcome to do that too :)

Alright so anyway the song quote of the week was "Some people just have no hearts, it's happening everyday" from Pure Massacre.. and I think that that's basicly saying that even if it's not in a war, or other completely devistating event.. that there are some people out there who have no hearts and do horibly mean and hurtful things to other people for no reasons and it's wrong.. I guess I can realate to that. .because I've been and am in some situations where I'm practicly surounded by heartless people.. and basicly it just sucks (for lack of a better word).

Hmmm now what do I think that Ben, Chris, and Daniel did for Valentines day? *hehe* well I'm going to start with Daniel..

I believe that Daniel speant Valentines day with his loving companin Sweep.. maybe they went out for a romantic walk along the beach, or a drive in Daniel's beloved car.. then maybe had a nice quiet dinner back at the Johns' house and watched a bit of tele.. *hehe* you think? I think that sounds pretty good eh?

Um..Ben on the other hand probably went to some club that was having some kinda Valentines special party going, and went serching for a chick and maybe had a few beers and just partied!

And then I think Chris spent Valentines day with his long time stedy girlfriend and they probably did something romantic.. maybe went to the movies and dinner or something like that.. not any huge partys or anything just the two of them alone.

Now for the quote "They looked at me, and made me scared....and then I left"-Daniel Johns,the MuchMusic I&I: *LOL* Well since I've never seen I and I, I can't tell you what exactly he was talking about but I just think this is a really funny quote.. probably has something to do with all the massive flocks of teenies that follow him around and scream after him! Well That's just my guess..

Alrighty then that's about it from me this week!
Later,
Heidi

PS - Wensday the 25th (the day after tomorrow) is my 15th birthday!! So I am expecting heaps of birthday messages...*hint hint* *hehe*

Subject: Excluding frightening pyscho killers.

I think the line "I wanted to be friends with her, too, so my relationship could be the same as yours," is about being excluded from people. Like when you want to be close to someone just because you feel left out, not because you actually care about the person. Maybe that's just my strange way of interpreting it though. I don't know. I think that has something to do with when Daniel and Ben were drifting apart cos Ben had a new girlfriend, like it said in that issue of Request from February 97.

Okay, and if silverchair were in a movie, I think it should be some predictable horror movie. Like, Ben would be the psycho killer and Daniel could run around in the woods at night in his pajamas (like people always do in horror flicks). Chris could be like, the dumb blonde and his main line could be, "Oh no! Please don't kill me, you horrible monster!" and then scream really high-pitched. Can you picture it?

Take care,
Christy - Punk Rawk Girly

'Welcome to the closing,
if not for love, what for?'- it's probably just a remark about closure in situations. it can be really uncomfortable when there isn't closure to stuff that happens and the band just wants to tell their fans that they love us. if this makes no sense disregard it cuz i'm pissed off and tired but not sleepy.

What did you think of Freak Show when you first heard it?- At first i was really surprised cuz i was expecting more of a grunge flavor. i really loved cometery the first time i heard it. some the lyrics do relate to me in my mind so i enjoyed that but i was just surprised by the heaviness mostly.

"I'm probably the most sensible in the band." Ben- He may have been refering to the fact that daniel is often so depressed that he can't think straight but chris seems pretty sensible.

Pure Massacre-"Some people just have no hearts, it's happening everyday"- it's about how people are so callous to the feelings of others. we live in a self-centered society and no one gives a fuck when you're feelings get hurt.

what you think Ben, Daniel, and Chris did for V-Day?- I think daniel was dreaming about meet although we've never officially met. i don't care if he has a girlfriend or whatever. that's just temporary entertainment until he meets me. ben was probably drunk and trying to get laid at some party and chris was probably with his girlfriend staring at the stars and kissing her.

the quote of the week will be: "They looked at me, and made me scared....and then I left"-Daniel Johns,the MuchMusic I&I-- that's cuz he's shy.
all that shit,
love, kelly.

Subject: be still my emerald i'll be waiting for you do exactly what yer told

hello fellow scfreakz!!

well i haven't much to say this week, and i really wish i did! anyways, here's all i could come up with this week!

: "They looked at me, and made me scared.... and then I left" - Daniel : Johns, the MuchMusic I&I

i have no idea what he was talking about cuz it's been like ages since i've watched the interactive! hehe just fyi bryan adams did one this past tuesday hehe. but i think he's probably talking about teenies spotting him and him thinking they'd attack and whatever..... can you imagine being swarmed by teenies? not something i'd wanna be in the middle of....

sorry for my useless babble!

~*THE CLOSING*~

Welcome to the closing.. lalalala Alrighty, so that concludes another issue of SCfreaks.. mmk..Well, for this Saturday's issue of SCfreaks the song quote we will discuss will be "You life's an open cold sore gotta get out the cream" From Pop Song For Us Rejects, what are your thoughts on this line? What does it mean to you? Let the rest of us know and mail me your thoughts! The question of the week is.. if you could choise one silverchair song to be your theme song what would it be? you know the song that you think represents you the best.. and why..And the finally the quote of the week is: "Yes, I have got a girl's haircut. I'm in touch with my feminine side. We have this ongoing competition about who can get the gayest haircut. My friend Jason has just kicked my ass by getting a layered feather-cut like in that movie Pretty in Pink." (Daniel)

Alright that's it! Bye!
Heidi
