Savage Garden
As these two boys from Brisbane, Australia, know, it doesn't hurt to be endorsed by Rosie O'Donnell. When the Queen of Nice sang the words to "I Want You" and the praises of the duo behind it, the song catapulted up the charts. Largely ignored by the serious music press, Savage Garden have cultivated a vast fan base on the strength of their music--and airplay--alone. As formulaic as it may appear, the ballad "Truly Madly Deeply" was lodged at No. 1 for week after week for a reason--it's damn catchy and a welcome reprieve from overdone rock ballads. Lead singer Darren Hayes lends the same yearning vocal style to the third--and best--single from the album, "To the Moon & Back," a slice of synth-pop genius that culminates in a dramatic crescendo of strings, courtesy of coleader Daniel Jones. --Rebecca Wallwork more

- Top notch pop record
The word "pop" seems to have gotten a bad reputation over the years. What used to signify the catchy hooks and melodies or the flawless songwriting has now become used to criticize bands becoming too mainstream or dumbing down their...

When Savage Garden had just started out, I remember hearing them on the radio and was overtaken by their cool sound and lyrics. I totally loved them and had all the cassettes tapes as they came out, but once I moved to a different...

Savage Garden's self titled album is one I have owned (and not owned when the original owner decided to take it back) and owned again for many years. I originally remembered hearing SG's singles on pop radio in my early teens and fell in...

I love every song on this album. I owned it on cassette tape when it was first released. My sister and I wore it out. I replaced the tape with two CD's and we are so happy I did.

- The Sweet, Catchy and Monotonous.
I thought "Truly, Madly, Deeply" was a great song and after I heard a girl in my class praising the cd, I bought it. I was not majorly disappointed but I felt a little let down. I have to give the duo credit for writing and producing...
