STPilots Crackerman off Core. Interstate Love song. Thank you please. Jam it out & Sex Type thing STP.

[@chellybaby852]

Yes Jamel!!! I’m so so happy you’re listening to savage garden. This was my childhood. Their music literally saved me from some tough times. Their two albums are fantastic. Darren Hayes is also an amazing singer songwriter on his own. Look his songs up, the words are phenomenal and so truthful and relatable.

[@chrishanson995]

When I was 19 back in the year 2000, my gf at the time won tickets to see them live. I bitched and moaned as she dragged me because I was into skate punk and hip hop only. They were so awesome in concert. They were probably one of the groups that made me realize I was missing out on great music because of my close-mindedness.

[@christopherkowalczyk4405]

For me it was 98. This song was in heavy rotation on the radio and at that time all I had was a room I was renting and a radio. So this song always takes me back to laying in bed after a long night shift and shower with my first long term girlfriend. At 19 the room, radio, and stupid young love was all we needed.

[@avengernemesis7990]

My kids were at university and saw them twice...

[@joelholland8523]

Well said. I skated back then to flat out. The guitarist went to my high school. Use to globe to globe world cup each year. I skated at river side with Ryan Sheckler and few others. Met Rodney Mullen, Elisha Streamer. In 2000 I was 13 it was cool shit. The good old days

[@realShadowKat]

The video might be 7 years ago, but the song is over 20 years old now! ...and I can still sing the whole thing through just like the good ol' days.

[@PAjeannie66]

The video is 25 years old. It was posted seven years ago.

[@DMB088]

Yup, it's been probably 10 years ago that my daughters and I were singing this on "sing star" on the ps 😅. It's what I always think of when I hear it.

[@amychace4543]

Video is 20+ years old

[@djtrunksta]

I just did... and it sent me here! :D

[@wildk4tmc421]

To the moon and back & truly madly deeply are also epic!

[@edgedjbob]

Sta. Monica is a hidden gem in their first album which is a total ear worm, I remembered I played that tape to death, right now it is still in my spotify playlist that brings me back to my childhood.

[@roselee7092]

Oh yes to the moon is back is amazing!!!

[@FacesByChelseaK]

This song is still so damn catchy it had you singing along halfway through - I love it! 💜 Such a fun nostalgic song.

[@melanieswritingplans]

Savage Garden was HUGE in the 90s while I was in high school! This song was featured on a lot of soundtracks, and was used in an early-ish episode of "Dawson's Creek". Such a great track!

[@ClickToPreview]

Since I am currently binge watching Dawson's Creek on Netflix, I can't wait to come across it!

[@melanieswritingplans]

@@ClickToPreview Me too! I'm rewatching it for...Idk, the 3rd or 4th time? lol I'm still in the middle of season one, but it's certainly been interesting rewatching it as an 'older' millenial!

[@Fenimore.Cassidy]

Just love this song. Brings back the 90's feels...

[@carlneoh5843]

A famous anime/manga series called JoJo's Bizarre Adventure used this as their ending and it's based in the 90s

[@FryngeMinority]

Hell yeah….. reminds me of working my first job at a gas station and hearing this song about 5 times a day.

[@chrisrj9871]

The band said they wanted to bring the 80s into the 90s, and I can kinda see it in this video.

[@atomfallen2409]

I was in 8th grade when this came out.ah the 90's.all kinds of nostalgia

[@gerardroll6468]

Jamel… These guys are an Australian group & enjoyed enormous success on our local charts here & also overseas. Their music is still played very frequently on radio stations here thanks to overwhelming demand from fans 🇦🇺✌️😁✌️🇦🇺

When you started the song I started thinking "he's not ready for this" the music kicked in and I said "buckle your seat belt" the zoom had me rolling. 🤣

[@truthseeker6532]

Not many songs that you could listen to over and over again, all day long and not get tired of it. This is one of those songs.

[@kmf65]

7yrs ago? More like 25....song came out in '97! My favorite era of music, personally! 😁

[@christianbrienesse]

This was always on the radio growing up in New Zealand. I still remember running to the kitchen when it came on and sliding on the varnish floor to begin singing along to this song.

[@kazzaMcFazza]

Love Savage Garden. Great Aussie band. Check out "Crash And Burn", "Affirmation", "To The Moon And Back", "I Knew I Loved You", "Two Beds And A Coffee Machine"... I could go on but that's a good start.

[@MadMadamGrimm]

Their song “two beds and a coffee machine “ is amazing! I saw them in concert when I was a teen and I’ve loved them ever since.

[@kdavies3105]

It's so funnyvthat this was their first track, because if you ask most people who remember Savage Garden, they will mention the ballads "Truely Madly Deepky" and "I Knew I loved You". Darren Hayes, as such an amazing voice.

[@gerardroll6468]

Jamel… Savage Garden consists of Darren Hayes (lead vocals) & Daniel Jones (instruments & backing vocals) & were formed in Brisbane, Australia, back in 1993. One of their most successful songs was a number called “Affirmation” & other hits of theirs include “Truly, madly, deeply”, “The Animal song” & “I knew I Ioved you” ✌️😁🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@riinak7212]

Hits include: "I Want You", "To The Moon And Back", "Truly Madly Deeply", "The Animal Song", "I Knew I Loved You", "Crash and Burn", "Affirmation" & "Hold Me".

[@awwgez]

That’s awesome that you did a video on this song. The lead singer over on his Tiktok made a video were he sings the lyrics and let people sing with him. Super cool dude.

[@berlyn3014]

I love, love, love Savage Garden. They have so many great songs. My favorites are "Crash and Burn" and "Two Beds and a Coffee Machine".

[@DougRayPhillips]

Second that. Actually, my fave is "I Knew I loved You," but my fave out of their lesser-known stuff is "Two Beds and a Coffee Machine."

[@berlyn3014]

@@DougRayPhillips Oh I love "I Knew I loved You" too. Such a great song.

[@deesee3622]

Two beds and a coffee machine is lovely and I love the message about abusive relationships and moving on from that

[@dustingifford2225]

I agree

[@quinny6920]

This whole album is the bomb!!! IMO!! People laughed at them when they came out but I loved them!!!!

[@davidbell5528]

I loved the first album , but unfortunately like several Rock/pop of the time it was the ballad that sold and the second album iirc was all ballads, which where the most standard and least interesting.

[@riinak7212]

@@davidbell5528 A lot of the second album were ballads but there were plenty of songs that were not, and the ones that were more uptempo were outstanding. Plus, even "I Knew I Loved You" has a version called the "Mini Me Remix" or something similar which turns it into an up-tempo dance track. :)

[@deesee3622]

Their second album was really good too

[@annagonzales8178]

Wow how in the 90’s they laughed at all the good stuff. Lol now they miss it!

[@fellihoijer4395]

I love Savage garden they are Iconic, They are also a Huge part of my childhood

[@anthonysalvaro2979]

when this came out it was so refreshing for me because i loved 80s and early 90s pop then grunge came a long and i had nothing to listen to until Savage Garden came out and finally good pop music was back

[@annesmith2259]

Yes, I always thought this was heavily influenced by the 80s .. love it

[@Excitable67]

Yep! I hated most of the 90's music, but LOVED this song!

[@Hananotaka]

I have a greater appreciation for grunge now, but…I can relate.

[@cherylreichardt]

This is what did it it for me! One listen and I was hooked on this Australian duo. Love that Chica cherry cola! I played this until I wore it out! Good job Darren and Daniel. Wish you were still together!

[@J.Christ-man]

Savage Garden reminds me of Roxette. Great tunes 👌

[@MizzInterpreted]

'Love To The Moon and Back' and 'Break Me, Shake Me'. Still regularly on my playlist.

[@evie9732]

[@venderstrat]

One of these guys' dad was a cleaner at a school that I used to work at. They were just about to break through. A few months later the song appeared on the opening of an episode of Melrose Place.

I had a Canadian friend who was a savage garden fan. I bought her the Affirmation CD (Australian version) when it first came out.

[@FH99]

This is a song that I can listen over and over and not get get tired of it. It's really catchy and I really like the start of the chorus.

[@faithnyou1732]

Wow! Have not heard this in years! Thanks for the smiles, Jamel!

[@pattisimmons67]

This was one of my favorite songs from the 90's! I can still sing the whole thing too. And believe me, it took a while to get the beat down with the words. Good times.

[@84TZ]

As others have said, this album was dope. I actually called the order of the singles after the first time I listened to it end to end. On my local station there was like 4 or 5 singles off this album. Always liked it.

So fun watching you get hyped about one of my favorite songs!

When my niece was a baby, we would put this song on when she was in her Jolly Jumper...she would go nuts!

[@riaanbehr7976]

Oh the memories! 1997. Here in South Africa some people thought it was a new song by Roxette. They have many awesome songs! To the moon and back my fave! Other gems are Two beds and a coffee machine, You can still be free, Affirmation, Tears of pearls. The list goes on ♥️

[@WNYXeb777]

Jamel I could go on for hours about this album. Enough to say - Thank you, You always make me come back to a good place. You see things very different then me, however you have assuredly consistently refocused my perspective to a place of contentment if not joy. This album brought me more reality, truth, and reflection on love then I care to remember. She has passed on, and my emptiness was liken to a universal portrayal of black hole. Yeah - I'm one of those who over see's into a song ....... always have ---- maybe that's their purpose.

[@Shiby23]

1990's skate deck sessions were so much fun back in the day. all the great music that was played you hadn't heard of.

[@CrAck-MoNey]

Wow, mid 90's. Love this song. Loved this album. Still love all this. I love watching you react to things. Keep it up.

[@IllumeEltanin]

Yes! This is my phone's ring tone. I know it is strange for a nearly 62 year old.

[@vermithraxpejorative6199]

Not really. You'd have been what - 37 or so when this came out? It's not unheard of for people in their 30's to listen to the current pop music of their day.

[@theplanetruth]

I don’t know why, but I have not been getting your notifications. In other news, this song was one of those songs for me that was monumental. The sound was fresh new vibrant and the lyrics were poignant. Can’t wait to see your reaction

[@IsabellaL82]

This song reminds me of being in hospital when I was a teenager. When a music video would come on the TV the female nurses would come running. They all had a crush on Darren Hayes. If only they knew lol

[@Alisha1686]

I LOVE THIS SONG 🎵!!! 🎵 ❤ THANKS JA

[@dr4782]

The fast-paced delivery of the lyrics in the verses is what caught my attention initially, but the chorus is what reeled me in. This song is on a short list of songs that I loved the very first time I heard it.

[@aniym21000]

This was their debut single if I remember, '97 I think. Came out of nowhere with their sound. "To the Moon and Back" is another awesome electronic rock song by them

[@crapmagee7210]

love the fact you just enjoy music and are willing to test the waters with new to you music.

[@eliallthetime27]

Seeing people react to my favorite song fills me with so much joy

[@reneeg9406]

Song was actually released in 97😉

[@PixelatedH2O]

I Knew I Loved You is probably the song Savage Garden is known for, but most of their music was great

[@gazamblegaming6610]

woohoo one of the most underrated 90´s/00 bands. very nice pop/ rock band. this song here reminds very much to roxette- joyride. of course now you must listen "truly, madly, deeply" or "to the moon and back" too.

[@AlexHernandez-yb9rx]

You said something about the song coming out like 9 years ago. I’m pretty sure this was mid to late 90s. Such a catchy tune and I still can’t sing all the lyrics lol 😂

[@jonnno243]

I bought the album Savage Garden in 1997, and ever since it has been one of my all time favourite albums. This song, and all the others on the album, to me , are SO good.

[@deborahcox3011]

Thanks for this video and reaction. They were great back in the 90,'s. The album came out in 1997.

[@franciscoiol]

This was when savage garden started 😁

[@deesee3622]

Love both their albums!

[@ahsophie09]

I loved this song since I was a child. It brings up a memory of when I had to go to a funeral. I went for my great nana. I never met her though but I won't forget. It's a fun song to blast overall. My go to when I want nostalgia of the 90s.

[@annesmith2259]

Affirmation by these is amazing

[@annagonzales8178]

My favorite is “like a deep sea river who is swimming with a rain coat” heehee! Love!

[@AJ17_]

This song came out in 1997 and it was EVERYWHERE. Radio had it in heavy rotation. Seriously heard it like every hour at one point. I highly recommend checking out "To the Moon and Back", "Animal Song" and "Affirmation" by Savage Garden. The singer, Darren Hayes, recently came out with new music after a I think 10 year hiatus.

[@chriskent3852]

This was the first CD that I had bought when I was 13. I still have and listen to it all these years later.

[@dariajustdaria2292]

To the Moon and back and Break me Shake me are a must! 🙏

[@SunlightInsightTarot]

Darren had a solo song after Savage Garden. Don't think it was a big hit here in the States but it might have been in his home country of Australia. I am not sure. But the name of the song was Insatiable. Just love that song and I think you would like it too. Of course it's about lovers.♥️ -Mary kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6aamXqhgZpqhJo

Darren Hayes solo work is incredible also. For an amazing musical journey, listen to the album “This Beautiful Thing We’ve Made” from start to finish, then watch the video album “This Beautiful Film We’ve Made”. I can’t wait to see him in concert again in 2023!

I actually had this song in my head recently. These guys were briefly pretty popular in the UK. I always thought he says "Ooh I'm dying to find out", but it's apparently "Ooh I would die to find out." Small difference, but still..

[@DCMarvelMultiverse]

I remember first seeing them after school on VH1. I was living on my own during my senior year. They sold 11M of their debut. The Australian version of that album is better btw. Check it out. They had two albums before splitting up. Daniel is now an executive and Darren continued on with some success. His first solo album in 01 is great. Check out I Knew I Loved You and To the Moon and Back.
