I remember the day the news broke. Someone reached out to me to say that Darren was being verbally attacked on his Fan Club page and that he was devastated. I got on line and countered what was being said until my fingers were numb.
Darren and Daniel had their time together and made Savage Garden. It is forever a masterpiece. It's a blessing for so many people. It doesn't matter what they have become now. We all have those we love the most which we can't keep them stay in our life. But the memories with them last forever. I'm just happy being savage garden's fan for so many years and never bother with the fact that they don't get along. I put my self forever inside the memories or timeline when they were happy together.
He really had a hard time with the attention that lifestyle demanded, and the effort needed to keep the machine running as it were. Darren made a pact with the universe, that was what he wanted. It didn't seem like Daniel felt the same.
@@nickdemarco1932then why did Daniel stay in music; as he did? That's the lame excuse that was given way in the beginning, but it turned out not to be true.
@@LibraLady59I not heard Darren open up about this before after all these years. All this time I always thought it was Daniel who walked and couldn’t cope with the lifestyle. (Which Ofc was true) I never for a second thought Darren split the band. I hope he knows that- that a lot of us knew. It’s Sad that Daniel was dishonest and unfair (unnecessarily) and it’s a shame that there isn’t a chance of them reuniting. All this aside- despite this - they really had a special connection in terms of music - and their song writing. savage garden will always have a very special place in our hearts. ♥️
It literally broke my heart when I saw Darren tried so hard to keep calm when he told the story, as if I could feel the pain. SG was always my favorite band in over 20 years. Daniel was a genius and he absolutely had an incredible taste in music. I think he did the best job in bringing out the most fascinating characters in Darren's voice with music (yes even better than Darren himself). I can partially understand why he let Darren took the blame, after all they were at their early 20s, but still it was too cruel and sad. I can't help wondering what if Darren spoke up for himself from the beginning -- then maybe Daniel would admit the truth sooner, or their PR manager would handle the split better, and he probably wouldn't have gone through such a long period of pain. I feel like Darren chose to sacrifice himself to take care of fans, which he didn't really have to🥺
Grandissimo Darren, bellissima voce, un artista unico, di grandissimo talento, uno dei migliori artisti di tutti i tempi, caro Darren ti mando un abbraccio grande con amore da Roma Italia ciao 😁❤️
What a beautiful message! Darren is truly a unique artist, and his voice is unforgettable. I'm sure he would deeply appreciate the hug and love you're sending from Rome. ❤️ Hello! 😁
Man, I grew up homophobic too. It’s what was taught in the church and the home. But I’ve had the opportunity to cross paths with people who are gay who told me their story, and some like Darren who wanted not to be gay. It helped me realize it’s just like me trying not to be attracted to women, not gon happen. I dropped the judgmental approach and became accepting. I’m happy for Darren.
I love Darren so bad! 😭😭 Always been an SG fanatic. I say all the time I wish Darren and Daniel would get back together just to do ONE more album. 😕 I innerstand now that that'll probably never happen. Ama forever love SG/Darren Hayes. 🥹🥹 I didn't know he has written a book so I'm definitely going to purchase. I LOVE YOU FOR LIFE DARREN‼️‼️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Darren’s impact is undeniable! 🥹 While a reunion may not happen, his creativity continues to shine. His book is such a beautiful reflection of him-you’ll love it! 💛
My guess? Something happened between Daniel and Darren, romantically if you will and maybe Daniel experimented and basically did the old turn tail and fled into himself. The other thought is that maybe Daniel just saw how dark that industry REALLY is and was like "nope". Im a huge Darren Hayes fan, hes the only guy I see live, but yeah, pretty sure theres more to that story and Darren isnt going to just 'out' someone for something they did in their oast, hes just not like that.
it's really hard to not think that way... When he talked about what Daniel did, the emotions were just not that simple. And Daniel's desire to stay away from the industry was quite obvious as well. I guess people just wouldn't know they'd hate being way too success before they get there... They were so wrong yet so right together.
No, Daniel and his wife had a baby and he didn’t want to tour the world with a young family at home, plus he already had a side huddle of writing songs for other artists. Meanwhile single rising star Darren wanted to take on the world.
SG was a spin off of Daniel Jones’s original band. Daniel Jones auditioned Hayes into the band as their lead vocal and the duo started SG together. They produced their music together.
Bless you Darren. I just received his book today and have read only a little, but his story and experiences resonate so deeply with me. It's like I'm looking in a mirror of a very similar childhood. He is so brave.
Been a savage garden fan for years. Nice to see Darren telling his story.
Darren’s story is powerful-thanks for tuning in. 🙏

So sad but their music will last forever. 😊
Darren is a beautiful human

Beautifully said. Savage Garden’s music and memories truly live on, touching so many hearts. Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt perspective. 🌹✨
Sure. But it's still sad that it ended that way. Not sure what's Daniel's problems were.

Darren is so single again? There is hope! ❤

Wish they'd hash this out.

its unbelievable that Daniel has gave Darren huge betrayal trust like that
Honestly I always wondered why Daniel was there or what he contributed to Savage Garden.

Thank you for sharing this. Wishing you a meaningful journey through his book. 🙏❤
There are 2 sides to a story. 🤨
Darren Hayes has a beautiful voice and I like his solo stuff better then the group.
Darren’s voice is amazing, and his solo work really shines with so much depth and soul! 🥰
7:08 richard? 😭💔 I was hoping they were still together. they seemed so happy.
Wishing them both peace and happiness on their journeys. 💔🙏
