Savage Garden - Superstars And Cannonballs: Live On Tour In Australia (DVD)

Savage Garden was the first band I ever saw live and for that reason alone I will always have a little bit of a soft spot for them. Although the Australian duo are no longer together, their time in the music industry with the release of just two major releases amounted in sales of over 25 million albums worldwide, which is rather remarkable for a group who weren't officially together that much longer than four or five years. Sadly, lead singer and ...
...guitar background and one of Savage Garden's best sing-a-long moments, brought to life in a live setting. 'The Lover After Me', a ballad of lost love but realisation that it was the right thing to do, was the last guitar orientated track before the next four songs of mild melancholy. It sounded exceptionally like the album version to prove that the group weren't merely another boy band clutching at instruments or using machines to enhance their vocal ...

...hubby and I attended the Savage Garden Concert held at the London Arena.The concert was brilliant.The atmosphere the crowd and the staff..the whole event was so well organized.It was a perfect evening.......Even addition Dockland trains were laid on to help disperse the audience. The only downside was that we were unable from our seats to see everything and there were no large screens..so when I received an email advising that the original concert ...
...The email from the Savage Garden promoters advised that the DVD would be released on the 26/12/00.On the 27/12/00 I visited all the stores in town Virgin,Hmv you name it I went there ..I was given very mixed info..either the DVD had sold out or it wasn't released etc ..when I got home I decided to look on the web...I ordered the disc from an American site for $17.00 plus postage..and waited and waited . The DVD arrived 10 days later..and after I ...

Review of Savage Garden - Superstars And Cannonballs: Live On Tour In Australia (DVD)

Savage Garden are my favourite group so I knew I was going to love this anyway, but it's way, way better than I thought it was going to be. It's filmed on the Australian leg of their world tour, and features 17 of their songs, including 'The Best Thing', 'To the moon and back', 'The animal song', 'Crash and Burn',' Truly, madly, deeply' and 'Affirmation'. The set is very impressive and the concert is filmed on eleven cameras, so you don't miss ...
...choose from one of four camera angles. Darren's voice, as ever is amazing, just as good, if not better live, with Daniel's musical talents, a superb band and two really good backing singers. The extras include a documentary 'Parallel Lives' , a video journal with lots of back stage footage, and Darren and Daniel talk frankly about their lives, onstage and off. There are also three extra song videos, a band commentary and a discography. Worth every ...

Review of Savage Garden - Superstars And Cannonballs: Live On Tour In Australia (DVD)

...is a must for all savage Garden fans. This is a show case of their best songs and of Darren Hayes' ability to actually be able to sing live, unlike a lot of popstars nowadays. The documentary also offers an insight into life on the road and is just really interesting to watch as a savage Garden fan. It such a shame that this band went their separate ways, as they could have only ever got better. They departed us on a high though, and this DVD really ...
...remember them. You never get bored from watching it over and over, as their's always bits that you didn;t notice before. brilliant performances of the haunting song 'Two beds and a coffee machine' and also a danced up version of 'I knew i loved you' - very interesting, to say the least!! The DVD lasts for 110 minutes according to the box Here's the track list: 1.Intro 2.The best thing 3. break me shake me 4. Lover after me 5. I don't know ...
