Savage Garden



Savage Garden is a pop influence band with two members: Darren Hayes and Daniel Jones. The two met five years ago when Daniel was auditioning lead singers for his band, Oz Rock. Darren tried and the two clicked immediately. They both had a mutual love and respect for music and had a feeling that their meeting was the beginning of something big. As you may have guessed, Oz Rock eventually went their seperate ways and Darren and Daniel stayed together despite the breakup.




Many people wonder: How did Savage Garden choose their name? Well, believe it or not, Darren and Daniel had many names that interested them before they came upon Savage Garden, however, they were all taken by other artists. Both admit that choosing their name was a very frustrating experience. "Savage Garden," which comes from the Vampire Chronicles of Ann Rice. Explains Darren, "Vampires call their world a savage garden. Their world is primitive and savage."



This is my personal favorite Savage Garden song - it is a very special song with great meaning to me.



Truly Madly Deeply


I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need.
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong I will be faithful
'cause I'm counting on

A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning

I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish to send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of

The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you

I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

Oh can't you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cause it's standing right here before you
All that you need will surely come

I'll be your dream I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do

I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

Truly Madly Deeply
