Greatest Hits Delayed
Posted By lssilver on Wednesday, February 26 2003 at 3:01 PM
A Statement From Darren Hayes Management
Contrary to recent posts on the internet, the proposed 'Savage Garden Greatest Hits' that had a tentative release of March 25 has been put on hold at the artists request. Although Columbia records has the right to release such a compilation without artist input or consent, they have agreed to hold off the release in order to let their artists have input into a revised track listing and package that will be more unique than the current proposal. We are very grateful to Columbia for making this decision. It is our firm belief that Savage Garden's loyal fans deserve a very special and well thought out retrospective collection. We will endeavor to do this for you when the time is right.

This is good news for fans, it means we are more likely to get a much better release, maybe even something that has some genuine rarities in it :)

5th Track on I Miss You single
Posted By lssilver on Wednesday, February 12 2003 at 3:33 PM
Just to clarify for those of you who are wondering ... The 5th track on the I Miss You single is a by-product of the disc being transparent. There is still only officially 4 tracks for this release.
Thanks to Katrina @ Roadshow for clarifying this for me :)
