This was my dad's favorite song. He passed away on Jan 14th 2022, I wish he could have seen this.

[@Danibug727]

Been a fan since 1997 and will always be. Love you Darren! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

[@mariahinterviews]

OMG! It feels so good to see him again so "careless and free"!

[@tarabachert249]

Not me sitting here crying because he’s so happy and fabulous 😭❤️

[@mulefeather6064]

This man. This beautiful, amazing man. He's just about the only artist who can make me feel like this.
Happy Mardi Gras!

[@jonnydubz8895]

His words are true. He is happy with being who he is. Where before like him I was hiding who I was. But we shouldn’t hide who we are. Bless him I’ve been i fan from day one. I was 14. Love you Darren n what Savage Garden represents. 🥰❤️

[@fleppy85]

I love this man so much, seeing him back on stage makes me cry.

[@jlcollins14]

Still sounds as fabulous as he did when this first came out on the airwaves.

[@Basil66454]

How could you not love this man

[@theadventuresofnoahandmike5940]

There's something special about him.

[@JasonQiuMusic]

I love that he can finally live by these lyrics. Go Darren!

[@ligiareisbr]

Sing Darren! Sing!
This made my day. ♥️

[@joshuagarbett]

This is the best song I’ve ever heard in my entire life

[@jcvax2939]

How happy I am to see you back in the music world. We have missed you. Wonderful show!

[@TheColeTruth]

Love how its mixed it with the new song. What a spectacular moment!

[@StevenMcFlyJunior]

The record "Spin" at the sexuality part: most impressive. Love it! I myself am a straight man but love Darren & someday hope to see him live. **fingers crossed**

[@SG-xo5ug]

GOLD!!!!!!!! I’ve been a huge fan since middle school!!! Your music saved my life in a very dark time and I would listen to both Savage Garden albums over and over! Thank you for your music, Darren!

[@cameron_0023]

Savage Garden really written this song.

[@garyhawkesford2253]

Im a Pom and saw you in Concert
Your just as good i love you just as much
Glad you found happiness outside of music .
Omg my first Sydney mardi was 1992 as a straight guy it blew my socks off ❤ lol
God bless you Derren and thank God we're in a we bit better place for people to be free

[@dhluver_4eva]

I love him so much! What an amazing performance from the most talented human! 🙌🏻🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️❤️🧡💚💙💜💛🖤🤎🤍💗

[@yanni8967]

[@alejandrosegovia4587]

What a great artist!! Looking forward his concert in feb 2023 🤩

[@JamesEatWorld7758]

Welcome back buddy. We need more souls like you.

[@leticiabrindis7861]

Darren your voice is powerful

[@chrisgaines6369]

So good to see Darren back on stage!!! Sounds as good as ever. I hope we get his one man show he's been teasing for the better part of a decade and a new album if he's ready. It's been 11 years since Secret Codes and Battleships. I love you Darren!!!!

[@matthewdigirolamo9850]

It's rare I get goosebumps but this song always does it for me. This performance and "Let's Try Being In Love" incorporated lyrics in the end sealed the deal.

[@IamCurrentlyAscending]

Looks like he had a bit of a monitoring issue and tried fiddling with that wireless unit on his back. You can't pop those earphones out to hear yourself in a stadium like that because you'll get unbelievable delay slap-back. So it's just plain impressive that he kept going so well.

[@revviegreen1406]

Darren Hayes, WOW WOW WOW. THIS IS AMAZING !!! THE VOICE, HAIR, ,SONG,THE LOOK !!!!!!! WE MISS YOU BEAUTIFUL !!!!!

[@cook1e70]

Soooooo glad he's back 💜💜💜💜

[@anthonycirami8500]

Love Him

[@fletchy40]

Legendary songs are songs that become more true as time goes on. This is one of those songs.

[@katepower8821]

So loved your special performance in general at the Mardi Gras. So happy for you, loved your comments of you being able to be you & how you repeated “Let’s try being in love right at the end❤️

[@thePestgirl1]

the quality of songs is better to heard that isn't discriminate the quality of life of people the song have meaning for isn't easy to creating this make the words.

[@Mat145]

Why didn't he say billionaires? Did he changes his mind about that now that he's rich? Or did he have more to lose now?
