Savage Garden's "I Want You"

Who remembers this song? I was listening flipping through the radio stations the other night and heard this song. I think it came out around '97. I just know that I used to like it. It just had a true 90's vibe. Other than that song "Truly Madly" (barf), this is the only Savage Garden song I remember. I ended up downloading it last night after hearing it on the radio. That was the first time in years, in fact I don't think I've heard it since it was popular in '97.

the lead singer of Savage Garden Darren Hayes has now gone solo and compeletly changed his stlye to a elertonica sound. He's like Kate Bush's love child. Anyways his latest album "This Delicate Thing We've Made" is a masterpeice. The album is perfect!! You guys should def. check it out, expically if you like "I want you"


Here the video for the very much Prince inspired "Me, Myself and I"

lol Yeah, he sings the lyrics so fast, but I DO remember the cherry cola line. I don't really know their other stuff.

There's a good acoustic version of this song that you can get on Japanese import (can't remember the name of the CD, but there's remixes, acoustic versions and B-sides from the first SG album). It shows how much talent that group had even if it was just vocals and guitar as apposed to the full-blown album version. Good stuff smile
Sounds like a real man to me...mind if I turn on the radio?
