My fave solo song by Darren is Strange relationship. Awesome song. Darkness is another gem. To the moon and back will always be my fave Savage garden song. Masterpiece👌❤️
There needs to be more Savage Garden appreciation. I remember vividly that moment where Savage Garden, Third Eye Blind, Matchbox 20, and The Wallflowers were all releasing music owning the air waves.
Absolutely loved your reaction to all of these songs. There isn’t a Savage Garden song that I don’t like. Darren Hayes voice and lyrics get me all up in my feelings. I was a young mother when these albums came out and I still love them just as much now. Thank you for sharing your thoughtful reactions with us. Darren Hayes song Insatiable.❤️✌️🌼
As an artist and someone who came up through the entertainment industry, the song “crash and burn” has an extra special meaning. The industry can be a very cruel place with so many people trying to claim their piece of a very small pie. The struggles can weigh heavily on one’s mind. This was even worse in pre smartphone and pre (widespread)internet days. Without friends and family to support and lend a place to crash and burn, some people see their flames extinguished. This song always makes me think of the human spirit and the friends you find in the darkest places-or the ones who find you. The sign language Darren performed at the end of the video gave the song something of a early 2000’s viral boost. Entertainment news reports started reporting on fans who were smitten with Darren’s sign language fluency. It turns out that his band mate was either married to or was dating someone who was deaf. She taught Darren the signs and he performed it in the most confident and heart wrenching way. I only know a few signs, but I felt his every word. That will always be my favorite part of the video. This was the group’s final US hot 100 hit.
To The Moon And Back is my favourite out of all the Savage Garden hits. I think the closest contender is I Want You because of its abit more up tempo rock sounding elements.
Always brings me joy to listen to Savage Garden, Darren is golden in every way, mind, soul, heart, voice, presence. These songs can always shine some light when you're feeling dark.
Yeah. His solo songs from the early 2000s are great, too. Insatiable, Miss You, Beautiful among the few. Also, bops like Strange Relationship, Popular and 1980 ME. I call this era his public coming out in a subtle way.
Great choices of SG songs. I never get tired of hearing their songs. I'd love to see you react to "Two Beds and a Coffee Machine" and "Lover After Me". In my opinion, Their debut album "Savage Garden" and "Affirmation" album do not have a bad song on either one. These guys were at the top with hit after hit after hit. Darren's voice and Daniel's musical talent were the perfect combination.
I love Darren's voice! I have my favorite songs by Savage Garden, but to be honest i love them all because Darren's voice is so beautiful and magical I could listen to him sing the phone book and I would still enjoy it lol....Some of my favorite songs by him as a solo artist would have to be; So Beautiful.....Bloodstained Heart.....I Miss You.....Darkness.....Popular.....Crush(1980 Me)....and Strange Relationship, and I believe all of those have music videos. I have other favorite songs by him but there's no videos for them so I won't mention them. Thanks for continuing to react to Savage Garden, I do enjoy your reactions!
I just love the message of Affirmation. I was just thinking actually after your last video I watched you should do something with Savage Garden, and here you are doing it! I suggest being utterly blown away by his operatic duet with Pavarotti on O sole mio.
Just binge watching some of your videos and found the savage garden series. I absolutely love them (love your videos too you do a great job). There's a brilliant Angelina Jolie film from the 90s called hackers that features affirmation and also crash and burn on the soundtrack. It's honestly one of the best soundtracks of any 90s film
I've always loved "To the Moon and Back," especially those verses... Actually, I think I enjoyed every Savage Garden single. Darren's just a phenomenal singer and seems like such a lovely guy. (He's also a big Kate Bush fan, so he's got good taste. ;))
Not sure if there is an official video, but I would love it if you would listen Dublin Sky, Sing to Me, and his cover of Elvis' Fools Rush In. Also Siren's Call, Hurt, and Our Love, and Like It or Not (this one is super intense).
To the Moon and Back has been my favorite Savage Garden song since I first heard it back in the 90s. I would love to see you react to some videos from A Flock of Seagulls. They weren't taken too seriously in the 80s because of the singer's crazy hair, but they had some really good songs and I think you'd like them.
For the "To The Moon And Back" song, there's actually 4 music videos for it. The US/UK version (this one), the original Australian version (in black and white), another version set inside an apartment (apparently in Malibu), and a dance remix version which uses the footage from the first one. Original: ua-cam.com/video/H5zcfhrBR3I/v-deo.html Malibu: ua-cam.com/video/tSGJdMxWTBo/v-deo.html Remix: ua-cam.com/video/W4CEJp_3S5A/v-deo.html I'm biased 'cause I'm Australian, but I think the original is more entertaining and more closely refrences the song's lyrics, but to each their own. Also, "Affirmation" has two music videos. This one (tour footage from a show in Brisbane), and the original, which is a clip montage from some of the biggest moments in recorded history. Original: ua-cam.com/video/9ChqdjY8_lk/v-deo.html Yep.
Thank you for doing this. I would recommend you to react to his live duet with Delta Goodrem “Lost without you”. Definitely one of his best vocal performances, and Delta is just out of this world.
It's not too late to see him live. He's doing his first tour in a decade next year(without Daniel obviously) but it should be a great show regardless. He'll be performing Savage Garden, solo hits and some stuff from the new album. I can't wait to go see him next year ☺️ Oh and you should react to Casey, Pop!ular and Crush from his solo stuff(yes, he has a song with my name)
Omgosh in middle school I used to have my binder full of Darren Hayes and use to say he’s my boyfriend so cringe I know 😬 that was his pre coming out. He’s awesome.
You should listen to the albums, my favourites are This Delicate Thing We’ve Made, and Secret Codes and Battleships, and the new one, Homosexual. He’s touring by the way, although he’s only doing a couple of shows in the US likely due to his limited audience there.
Aha. Time to find another artist to carry on about. It's a little weird watching these video versions, they're completely different to the ones we got on TV in Australia for the most part
Popular Darkness Strange Relationship I Miss You On The Verge Of Something Wonderful Casey Talk Talk Talk Blackout The Sun to name some .. he is so underrated
Go for Darren poison Blood and a new single is coming next 18 August called "all you pretty things". It would be fine get your reaction during the very first listen !
As far as Darren solo is concerned you definitely shouldn't miss out on "Pop!ular" and "Black Out the Sun". And for some fun you could also throw in his rendition of either Madonna's "Dress You Up" or "Angel".
Moon and Back is by far the best song you listened to here. It might even be their best song.
Too the Moon and Back is definitely my favourite. His voice is just stunning and it was a MASSIVE hit here in the UK back in the day.
Darren hayes is touring the UK in 2023
Great Aussie band, from Queensland ❤❤❤❤❤
Darren’s ‘On The Verge of Something Wonderful’ is a great 2000s pop song. 😊
Underrated Aussie band even in Australia tbh
You should react to his live performances - his voice is out of this world!
I love the sign langauge at the end of the CRASH AND BURN video .
My fave solo song by Darren is Strange relationship. Awesome song. Darkness is another gem. To the moon and back will always be my fave Savage garden song. Masterpiece👌❤️
Thank you for reminding Darkness. It's moving in a gentle way.
There needs to be more Savage Garden appreciation. I remember vividly that moment where Savage Garden, Third Eye Blind, Matchbox 20, and The Wallflowers were all releasing music owning the air waves.
I adore crash and burn! The video was amazing.

Ooo and Darkness.of course, my all time fave DH song! Xxxx
To The Moon And Back is my favourite out of all the Savage Garden hits. I think the closest contender is I Want You because of its abit more up tempo rock sounding elements.
Poison Blood, Black out the Sun, Bloodstained Heart, Do you Remember, theres so many solo songs to check out, he is amazing ❤ xxxx
Always brings me joy to listen to Savage Garden, Darren is golden in every way, mind, soul, heart, voice, presence. These songs can always shine some light when you're feeling dark.
Darren has a beautiful voice and would probably sound great singing from the phone book! I enjoyed all of your reactions, thanks 😊
Thanks for watching! 😊

He has a wonderful voice and, yes, there is a whole of truth there in his words.

Thank you so much!
OMG I cannot believe, thank you for this reaction, To the Moon and Back & Crash and Burn are my favourite song from them, sending some ♥️ from 🇧🇷 😘😘
Thank you for watching!
'To the Moon and Back' I loveeeee
I just love the message of Affirmation. I was just thinking actually after your last video I watched you should do something with Savage Garden, and here you are doing it! I suggest being utterly blown away by his operatic duet with Pavarotti on O sole mio.
Omg, you're playing my history...... I have surprised myself... I still know every word to all of these ❤
Love Savage Garden another fave so many great songs two songs I always play is you can still be free and so beautiful. 💜🌟🍃😊🎶🎶
Yes! You can break me, shake me and take me over. Think this might be my favourite song of theirs tbf.
I’m seeing Darren in Oxford, uk next March!
Have fun!!
Me too in Sydney in February. Can’t wait
Break Me Shake Me live is an experience. I was fortunate enough that he preformed it at his show last April
One of the great pop voices and Aussie, now that’s a great combo
Just binge watching some of your videos and found the savage garden series. I absolutely love them (love your videos too you do a great job). There's a brilliant Angelina Jolie film from the 90s called hackers that features affirmation and also crash and burn on the soundtrack. It's honestly one of the best soundtracks of any 90s film
Solo stuff, Crush, Strange Relationship, and Popular are all pretty good

Darren Hayes Step Into The Light is a great one
To the Moon and Back has been my favorite Savage Garden song since I first heard it back in the 90s.

Crush (1980) 😉
Thank you ❤️
Thank you for watching!

Thank you for watching!
Loves Savage Garden ❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤To the moon and back❤️
Definitely check out Insatiable as a solo track. His voice is amazing on that one (like all songs)
I already reacted to Insatiable 🙂: ua-cam.com/video/Hg5bn7cq8_Y/v-deo.html
Check out “So Beautiful”. His smile at the end just melts me.
To the Moon and Back is the hottest Savage Garden song by far
Check out Tears of Pearls too. Another vibe song.
I’m not really a Savage Garden fan but To the Moon and Back is epic and i bought the CD single back in the day.
So many good songs, so little time seems like.
My goodness is all good 😉
Are you going to do another reaction vidéos from depeche mode ?
Yes
My recommendation would be “The Tension & The Spark” it’s amazing. 😊
It's not too late to see him live. He's doing his first tour in a decade next year(without Daniel obviously) but it should be a great show regardless. He'll be performing Savage Garden, solo hits and some stuff from the new album. I can't wait to go see him next year ☺️
Oh and you should react to Casey, Pop!ular and Crush from his solo stuff(yes, he has a song with my name)
I like "Darkness" and "Talk Talk Talk" by Darren.
Being a big Darren fan the 4 tracks you need to react to are :
Darkness
Black Out The Sun
Poison Blood (is latest)
Popular!
On the verge of something beautiful
Neverland
Casey
Roses

I was hoping truly, madly, deeply was on here.
No one has suggested Darren's "Insatiable" yet. I could have sworn you did that one, but probably not?
Yes, I have 😊
From Darren Music you can listrn Bloodstained Heart, Popular, On the Verge of something wonderful, Black Out th Sun and So Beautiful
you should try The Corrs
OMG please react to Darren's song Insatiable! The most passionate song I've heard!
I already did 😊 ua-cam.com/video/Hg5bn7cq8_Y/v-deo.html
Great poetry from a Logan boy, Logan is a bit of a depressed working class area of Brisbane, maybe it created Darren into a soft poet.
Aha. Time to find another artist to carry on about. It's a little weird watching these video versions, they're completely different to the ones we got on TV in Australia for the most part
Popular Darkness Strange Relationship I Miss You On The Verge Of Something Wonderful Casey Talk Talk Talk Blackout The Sun to name some .. he is so underrated
Go for Darren poison Blood and a new single is coming next 18 August called "all you pretty things". It would be fine get your reaction during the very first listen !
Can you do smoke slow by Joshua Bassett?
Can we just acknowledge how hot/sexy Darren is in ‘Crash & Burn’ video? This song is dope!
Me Myself and I (Darren Hayes song) I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
As far as Darren solo is concerned you definitely shouldn't miss out on "Pop!ular" and "Black Out the Sun".
And for some fun you could also throw in his rendition of either Madonna's "Dress You Up" or "Angel".
Check out insatiable his voice is amazing in that song
I’ve already reacted to Insatiable: ua-cam.com/video/Hg5bn7cq8_Y/v-deo.html
Hello
Looking lovely tonight in white.Ate you smiling?
Insatiable is so erotic.. I think you may have listened to it before, but it is worth a repeat??
AM from Scotland not gay but your amazing young man God bless
