Savage Garden won ten awards on the ARIA 1997 (Part 1) 

I know, right? 👍

SG was my first concert as a teenager in 1997, sorry to rub that in :/

I feel the same way!

Lmao

I was in Kindergarten when they broke into the music scene 💜

me too dude me too

Me too

Oh me too

Yes u're right, he's so adorable. I love Daniel Jones too.

@@marsya_fika Great minds thinks alike;)

Listen ti new Darren's single too!

You know, sometimes I imagine, what their story would be looked like, if Daniel hasn't decided to lead it to an end. How massive could they be, how many #1 positions and records'd be achieved yet, how many Grammys honored etc But in the other sec I understand, that it could only happen in my imagination. SavageGarden became extremely huge, as it was their era of music, their generation of people, who used to live to the fullest. The right time and the right place, but it's not that world anymore. It's been kinda of magical cooperation of two talents and you absolutely know, that everything genuine and truthful doesn't exist for a long time.

@@AR-jl5cz absolutely 👏

@@AR-jl5cz 👏👏 solid comment

Yes. SG got it all.

😅

Yea

Hahahahahahaah

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Daniel jones and Daniel johns.. what the..

Daniel wanted out of the band before their second album was released. They had to convince him to stay on until the end of their tour. There’s more info below in the rest of the comment section.

Darren said exactly the opposite: that he was happy to be the face of Savage Garden, that it allowed him to do what he'd always wanted, that he'd never had left the band. Daniel on the other hand was not comfortable with touring and spending heaps of time away from his family and home in Queensland. He was a pure musician who liked to play instruments and craft melodies, not a performer for the stage. He wanted out, that was what caused the breakup of Savage Garden. Disappointing indeed but it is not hard to understand his reasons. In fact he left the music industry altogether after a few years, confirming that he had no intention of sticking around. For many years I'd been wishing they would reunite, I am over it now. Could they have made it with a third studio album at least? The demo material that's been leaked since then indicates that they could have, the creativity was still there. But it is no use lamenting over that, I'd rather remain thankful for the incredible gift which they gave the world with their music. It is an incredible success story considering their backgrounds.

@@oldskoolmusicnostalgia agree, and it's a shame that a recent published article stated that Darren & Daniel are no longer friends, let alone have spoken in years. It has pretty much wiped out any hope of a future Savage Garden reunion tour or release. That and Darren semi retired years ago, so even his interest in returning to any kind of music career right now is at an all time low. He seems more intent on making podcasts instead now. Oh well. Like many others here I am sure, I'll just have to live on all the memories I had of them both performing together when I was a completely obsessed teenager, attending all their concerts and living and breathing their albums lol.

Pritish Appadoo true😃👍🏽

@@oldskoolmusicnostalgiagreat response. All credit to Daniel for making the choice that was right for him. Nice to see Darren back again. His new album is fascinating and his 2022 interviews revealing. Fame and the pop star lifestyle is not for everyone and we’ve seen how badly it can end for some.

Now he acts like a wife lol

​@Sumaya that is not necessary

MediTruth there was nothing wrong with that really now !!

Now he is older, handsome and a talented princess. 👸

As I know, Darren has given their all-time awards to Daniel

A lot of bands are like that , they just pretend to be " freind's " . 90% of the best musicians can't stand each other . The two women in Abba never spent time with each other apart from performance's.

Never pretended to be friends, there were just 2 music soulmates, who felt each other lyrically and perceived music on the same level. They were handsome, talented and incredibly ambitious young men, who seemed to have the same aim in life, bt eventually it wasn't. The example of interesting path without happy-ending story. It's kinda sorry, music without them will always be deficient.

You are disappointed for the wrong reasons. They never hid the fact that they were not friends. Darren in particular explained that they were two very different people who challenged each other to produce good music as a duo - they did together what each of them could not do on his own. You are basically expecting every individual out there to develop close friendships with each person they work with? Whoever thought they were best buddies is just projecting their own perceptions onto two highly talented musicians.

They are Australian though
