Savage Garden an official Hit

Published by admin at 1:57 pm under Music news

Savage Garden’s hit song “Truly Madly Deeply” has come in at No. 30 on Billboard’s Hot 100 All-Time Top Songs. Billboard recently compiled the Hot 100 list from the charts first 50 years, August 1958 through July 2008.

Savage Garden hit Billboard’s Hot 100 pinnacle with “Truly Madly Deeply” in 1998 and also again in 2000 with “I Knew I Loved You.” Both ballads were not only Adult Contemporary No. 1s, but they were also the top songs of the year at the format on Billboard’s year-end rankings for 1998 and 2000, respectively. “Truly Madly Deeply “ is also the ONLY one-sided single to spend a whole year in the Top 30 of the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart.

Savage Garden are considered to be one of the most successful duo’s in pop music history. They have sold over 25 million albums and 15 million singles around the world and they also hold the record for winning the most ARIA awards in the one year (that would be 10 awards in 1997!)

When Savage Garden parted ways in 2001, Darren Hayes went on to not only become a successful solo artist but also the owner of his own record label, Powdered Sugar.  He has just recently released The Time Machine concert on DVD which debuted at #No. 1 in the UK.

Darren is currently at home in Australia working as a mentor with the finalists of Australian Idol.  He will appear on the show as a guest judge this Sunday September 28.
