With sales of over 25 million, Savage Garden are one of the most successful duos of all time. Four years after their amicable split, the ‘Greatest Hits’ celebrates their career and is jam packed with their mega hits.
Darren Hayes and Daniel Jones released their debut album ‘Savage Garden’ in 1996. It produced the hits ‘I Want You’ ‘To The Moon And Back’ (UK top 3) and the record breaking ‘Truly Madly Deeply’ (UK Top 3) which topped the Billboard charts for an incredible 9 weeks. ‘Savage Garden’ topped the UK album chart and the Billboard Album Chart for 16 weeks and went on to become 10 x platinum worldwide.
Their sophomore album ‘Affirmation’ matched this success. It produced their second Billboard number 1 with ‘I knew I Loved You’ (UK top 3), and the massive hits ‘The Animal Song’ ‘Affirmation’ (UK top 5) and ‘Crash and Burn’.
With their current, poignant lyrics and killer choruses, ‘Savage Garden’ wrote, produced and performed hit after hit making this album ‘The Greatest Hits’ a sure-fire Christmas smash.
On top of the hits, the album includes the upcoming single ‘So Beautiful’. Written produced and performed by Darren Hayes, its emotive lyrics and big chorus combines the sensitivity of Savage Garden with the innovative nature of Darrens’ solo work. It is a great taster for Darren’s 3rd solo album which is set to be released next year.
