  • i truly love this man. i met him once and he was so nice.

  • ...but I wanted to hear first from you!

  • At 2.00 so damn cute. Such a beautiful song.

  • Fantastic photos, some I haven't seen before. I wonder if Darren really knows how many hearts he has touched for all these years.

  • Wonderful :) Did Darren make an offical music video for this song?

  • @emilyruth4god No he didn't sadly. It was never a single, which it should have been, and no video was ever made.

  • @kateo2006 awww too bad :(

  • I keep coming back to Darren's...Dublin Sky!

  • i can not describe how much i love this man.

  • How many loads did I let you hijack?

    How many ways can I stand here in playback?

    How did I end up lying here

    Crying underneath the Dublin sky?

  • @PropheticVindicator I always thought the lyrics were...how many LOWS did I let you hijack and how many ways can I STUDY THE playback

  • @sharabang06 Yeah I think you're right...

  • @PropheticVindicator The reason I commented is because it's usual of me to change lyrics to songs. I remember having done it to other songs and then been stood corrected. I said once how amazing Darren writes even when I've heard something different, can only imagine how brilliant he is when I discover the real words! lol

  • Damn, I wish I had seen these two perform together, would've been epic.. Saw Darren alone an dit was wonderful, but I've always wanted to see SG live. Oh, well. Miracles happen, don't they?

  • @chainjix I saw them perform shortly before they split. It was AMAZING. They are so good live.

  • beatiful song

  • I just purchased the Tension and the Spark. I advise everyone to purchase this masterpiece. This is Darren's most personal, intimate and finest reflection. It is a catharsis; a journey on an emotional pendulum. It is a must have!!!! *****5 star rating.

  • me, too!

  • I would like to party with him.

  • darren was married with colby taylor,between 94/98..she was from university years..he might notise that he likes male..i love him anyway..

  • Comment removed

  • i think"where you want to be " is the one about Daniel. This one is about an old b/f who did not treat him well..... i think!!

  • yh think the same.. cant believe 'where you want to be' wasnt on an album, let alone be a huge hit #1

  • I think there have been a couple about Daniel, or at least about how he felt about the break up of Savage Garden. I think the whole thing hurt him deeply at the time. WYWTB was recently confirmed by him as being about the break up and I've heard "Heart Attack" from the Spin album may have also been about Daniel. But I agree, this song is not about Daniel. Darren has said it was about an ex-lover and there has never been any proof that he and Daniel has that sort of relationship.

  • @kateo2006 Daniel has been married since before SG made it big and has a kid, so I doubt any kind of relationship went on between him & Darren. That & Darren was married from 1994 till about the time of SG's breakup. *shrug*

  • Actually Daniel only got married in 2005, long after the break up of Savage Garden, having met his wife in 2000. During the SG days he had a different girlfriend, and yes Darren was married. I agree, I doubt there was any romantic relationship.

  • @heartagramaddiction That and Darren has said that Daniel is the straightest guy you'll meet. Too bad because he's hot.

  • ...it put diamonds in your eyes...

  • ummmm sorry, this is a really great vid, but this song is very very likely NOT about Daniel, the other guy from Savage Garden. This is obviously about a lover, or at least a love/crush that was never fully realized.

    The only DH song that seems (to me) to be about Daniel is 'Walk Away' from "Delicate Thing"....of course I could be wrong on both counts.

  • "Walk Away" is actually about his dad.

  • magic)beautiful)

  • The words in this song are so powerful. Love it!!

  • Darren you´re my love...

  • This song reminds me of someone I want, but I think that relation's future is so uncertain, so I relate it with this song :(

  • How many days am I gonna regret you?

    How many nights till I forget you?

    Have I been wasting all those years?

    Held down by these tears?

    How many dreams have I left deserted?

    How many hopes have been diverted?

    Have I been buried in the dirt?

    Held down by this hurt?

    don`t need to add anything else! this song is just as perfetc as his other ones, brings so many wonderful emotins and memories!

    darren is my love for ever <3

  • ..I've tarnished all our memories, but there'll always be a trace of you!!!

  • the clouds cover up a dublin sky!!

  • really beautiful song <3

  • at first when I heard him singing I knew that he is someone special....his voice is like a medicine...I lov U and keep singing like you alredy have....kiss from Croatia

  • This song is love. Too awesome not to fave.

  • so romantic and sweet

  • this is a rare song to find by him

    i love darren ive been listening to him for..well since i was 2 and im 14 now

    wow im a young

  • love. love. love.

  • what a moving song...

  • Great tribute video..Brillant song..Amazing voice!!

  • Great song.. sometimes make me cry! even now.... :D Love Darren's songs

  • so many avenues this song can take you down - wonderfully written and performed.

  • TOO HOT TO BE TRUE (L)

  • )))))))))))))))!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

  • Brilliant!!!

  • darren's an awesome singer. i love this song :)

  • Darren Hayes is just simply a amasing singer! He sings his songs so emotionally it's sounds almost effortless, it's breathtaking listening to him sing!

  • brill .he cant sing anything bad,

  • This song is so emotional it's one of my favorite songs of darrens.

  • this song always leaves me breathless!

  • Have I, been wasting all these years drowning in my tears??? Beautiful!!

  • i just love darren!!!!

    jay

  • this song is sik! ( the good sik) :) i luv it

  • this man is just amazing, when he writes and sings songs he touchs peoples hearts and souls... thank you

  • This song is absolutely beautiful. The first time I heard it, I cried. And I don't cry for many songs.

  • lol dont feel bad..i cried 2..everytime i hear this song i cry..the song is beyond beautiful!

  • yeah, "beyond beautiful" is the most right word for the song. Darren's The Tension And The Spark is a wonderful album. alot of beautiful songs in it.

  • what does it matter? does it really matter who the song was written for?

  • darren is way too underated...he deserves so much more than what hes gotten...He has beaten the odds though...no matter what they try to throw at him, hes still stays on track and is making music! Kodos to you darren! you ROCK AND ARE BEAUTIFUL NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS!

  • I can't get enough!! Such a beautiful song!! I thank you Darren. I wish I had the power to have made this a hit for you in all markets. It is what it is...God bless you always. I'll see you soon!!

  • I feel the same.Darren is so underrated.I wish i could scream his name from rooftops and tell people how amazing this man is and make them experience his life-changing music.

    This is my favourite Darren song,ever!

  • Still gives me the shivers and twists my guts.

    fantastic,just fantastic!

  • Year 2000 was the time when Daniel first met his wife. It was also the time when SG broke up. I don't want to prove this pair was a couple, I just think there are maybe some possibilities that darren had a crush on Daniel. the song "Where you want to be" indicates something

  • fayeyy, everybody sees different things in Darren's songs. Many people want to believe that Daniel and Darren were a couple, but really, this song and WYWTB could be about anybody in Darren's life. We don't know who he had relationships with before he met Richard, or how many people he was involved with. Unless he comes out and states who a song is about, we should assume he kept it private for a reason, and we should respect that.

  • Very well said kateo2006...very well said...People sometimes forget this man has a lifetime of friendships and relationships to write from. Plus his ex-wife Colby and other people (lovers or friends) along the way. Even songs he's written from hypothetical situations.

  • Yes true, thanks for that.

  • excellent comment

  • Thanks saraluvxx

  • Just want to declare: De Leon met Jones at the 2000 Logie awards

  • okay ppl-we have all established that darren is gay-LETS MOVE ON Plz mayb 2 his music? that would be nice- to make this clear to every 1: DANIEL AND DARREN NEVER HAD A THING FOR EACH OTHER! daniel is MARRIED and was DATING his current WIFE when he was in the band with Darren. Darren has already said that daniel was the "straightest" man he knows so that proves they were only good friends. Please move on from the subject of darrens sexuality. theres more to talk bout then that!

  • You forget, some people, not all, can be in a relationship and still seek a dormant pleasure or curiosity. It happens everyday. Remember the phrase " On the down low" You can not dismiss that fact. I am not saying that Daniel is gay, but what if something did happen. Yes, Daniel is married--now. No one really knows what happened but Darren and Daniel, because if there wasn't that possiblity, we the audience would not be asking Darren questions about the realtionship he and Daniel shared.

  • I, no longer will continue this discussion on this topic. It has gotten too old. Let's analyze this song even further. I think it's about Daniel's decision on leaving the band. Maybe it is a nostalgic recount in metaphor based on their history as Savage Garden. Maybe Daniel's choice for leaving was a selfish act. Darren had invested on the band remaining on the charts and performing awhile longer. Think about it. Listen to the last verse. There are clues everywhere. Darren, You Rock! Luv Dublin.

  • This song is filled with metaphors. I love this song. What most people fail to realize is that song writers are just that--writers. The art to manipulate meaning with paradox, hyperbole, personification, similie. Although, we assume to understand the context, the question is: Do we really? It's beautiful to make a critique on beautiful art. It is not right nor wrong. It is how one interperts the art. It's song writers like Darren, who bare their soul with the intent to heal. Bravo. Bravo.

  • Hello Dunhillsky2... I have wrote poetry all my life and recently have turned my hand to song lyrics. I have a friend who is a musician and my first attempt got me the thumbs up. I totally agree with you on the point of how lyrics though they give an obvious meaning also very much so can give the listener a chance to interpret their own meaning. A recent lyric I wrote talks of wisdom and regret, but no-one would know specifically what my regrets are. It's personal, but I'm not an open book.

  • Thank You. Finally someone who can relate 100%. I used to write poetry when I was younger. My only frustration was I had convinced myself that poetry had to rhyme. Now I don't know where to begin. lol. Good Luck with all your endeavors. Keep in touch =)

  • im still confused honestly-darren and daniel were partners in a band-of course they worked closely together-that DIDNT mean that there was anything SLIGHTLY SEXUAL between them...i respect your opinion and all but u confuse me

  • Thank You. I enjoy expressing and reading other responses. To answer your comment I will begin by stating a fact, and that fact is we live in a universe of possiblites. Therefore, it would be feasible to say that Darren and Daniel were a possibility and that Dublin Sky was possibly written as a narrative describing their professional and/or personal relationship. It's possible.

  • okay i think im starting to understand you-i c where ur coming from, could there have been a possiblity-maybe-but i dont believe to any extent that darren and daniel shared anything romantic. What r ur thoughts about darren writing a song about a past relationship with someone else? colby for example?

  • I agree with your point.

    Darren confessed he fell in love with someone(whose name was refused to tell) in his company back then.

  • even if darren decided not to announce the name of the person he fell for, i highly, highly doubt that it was daniel. he was seeing his current wife when he was in the band...

  • wrong

  • wrong about what may i ask? have you heard the song "crash n burn" darren wrote that song when h moved to NY when he was DIVORCING HIS WIFE! he was married when he was in the band. he started SG when he was 18 he got married when he was 23...do the math

  • either way darren has a right to his privacy.

  • Darren's music is cathartic. It would be impossible for an artist not to write or sing about what has defined,...their person. Most people presume to know to whom a singer or song writer writes or sings to. That's the biggest mistake we the general public on a constent do. I'm guilty of it too. I am sure he has written about Colby. Hell, he's probably written about me. lol. My point is this: we don't know. we pretend to know. It is open to interpertation unless otherwise expressed by the artist.

  • Is this Dude Gay?

  • I listen to this song everyday. I think it's about the relationship he had with Daniel. I know it was based on friendship and professionalism, but I think at one point, it was a little more. It was not so much a long term thing, but something happened temporarily. Then one decided to end it. I think we know which one. How could you love me only then to leave me?? It would explain at least in my world the reason Savage Garden is no longer. Listen to the song. It's about Daniel.

  • Your totally wrong, Darren and Daniel werent even friends. Darren said that himself, in his documentary. There was nothing between them at all x

  • I respect your argument. However, if I were in a band, and made my sexuality public, I too would say the same thing. Whether they did or didn't is not the relevence of my comment. What is so salaciously delicious is the idea that they might have had an encounter or two. The idea I am most sure of has crossed several minds, but it's all in the spirit of speculation. The song is indeed a beautiful song and it's message is cathartic,an awakening-- nonetheless.

  • Darren has said this song was about an ex-lover. And I really don't believe Daniel was ever that, though a lot of people would like to believe otherwise :) Darren himself has said Daniel is the "straightest" guy he knows. Daniel has gone on to marry and have a child. The words "they sent you all the way from Hollywood" says it definitely wasn't Daniel, Daniel has only ever lived in Australia.

  • This is the angst filled Darren I remember from Tension And The Spark. He defintely writes of what's going on his life. A Very personal song for him like "Heart Attack" when he's upset at someone.He pours himself all over our ears so easily!!

  • What an amazing song this is...I love it so much. Its beautiful...Amazing...and sang by such a talented singer.

    Darren is amazing <3

  • Darren has everything that makes an artist great. He is so incredibly talented, so amazingly put together that God himself knew he was making an Angel. He has all the dedication, all the passion, all the heart to be great and to come out on top! Keep up the fight darren! your doing wonderful!

  • Love this! Ahhhh, the memories. Works great with the song. Thanks for posting.

  • i cant believe people dont frequently come here 2 listen 2 this absolutely spell-binding too-beautiful-4-words song!!!!

    the anguish n hurt makes me cry...

    Darren u r wonderful!!

  • this is my favourite song 4m TTATS...its haunting,full of sadness,agony and regret!!

    it jus makes me bawl like a baby..especially the last 2 mins of the song...

    Imagine hw broken n unhappy he mustve been 2 write such a song!!! im glad he's in a happy place nw!

    Darren u r amazing!

  • Damn!I love his lips and eyes,and especially his voice!Olala!

  • I love this song...Its great

    Darren Hayes is the best xx

  • i loved the shirt-"yes me and Daniel do speak occasionley"

  • WOW! I am really moved by this video. I am a new fan after the break-up. I can actually hear myself singing his/my words. It is a sad thing when a great relationship ends. Why? Puppy also loves Darren, Savage Garden, and this song/video.

  • oh thats so cute.

  • darren~

    you are surely spectacular! you have what it takes to make it on top! Great songs darren- keep em comin

  • Darren, aside from being aesthetically pleasing, your voice is impeccable!! This song has the elements of reflection, regret, and retribution. This song has resonated in the very core of my spirit. You utter and convey the most sublime words; it is hard not to equate the sentiment. I admire your essence.

  • what a moving song...

  • I miss savage garden but i think Darrens music is much more passionate and beautiful now.

  • wow these pics are really hot

  • c'est magnifique. you've done tem proud i miss savage garden but he did do good as a solo artist

  • You really do a great work here.. Your compilation is amazing ! THX MAN !

  • I miss the Savage Garden Days....

  • 00:57  OMG.... he's veryyy sexy with long hair

  • Ive grown up listenin 2 Darren Hayes :P

    and im from Dublin,so when he wrote dis song i was like >>:D:D

    but y is it actually called Dublin Sky,does any1 know?

    x

  • Its a saying as meaning the skys of gold. That is what dublin usesed to be known because thats were people thought their dreams lay berfore the american dream came along

  • First song I ever wrote on my own. Sat down with a guitar in Dublin one day and howled deep from my heart about my woes. It�s entirely literal. I was at a crossroads and sensing the end of a relationship that I didn�t want to let go of.

    I put the song on the shelf for a while and I guess like some self fulfilling prophecy, a year later the relationship I was in ended abruptly and the song became the first reflection of the experience.

  • all i can tell you is that the song itself is about a bad breakup that darren went through. i dont know exactly why he called it "dublin Sky" though. all i know is its an amazing song, full of despair, pain, hurt, anger, betrayal, depression. its great.

  • marry me DARREN!!!
