Nothing major, but at least Darren is talking to media from his home in SF.
News Headlines:
1. Darren About the GOO GOO DOLLS
The singer of Savage Garden, Darren Hayes, had some cool words to say about the Goo's: 'We're actually managed by the same company that manages this band, that's the Goo Goo Dolls. And I remember seeing the movie 'City of Angels', and hearing the hit and just fall in love with it. I thought it was a very honest song, a beautiful song
and..is it Johnny ? He's Johnny, i love Johnny's voice. I think he's got a great voice and great haircut too. Hum -- 'Dizzy up the girl' is a great record and I enjoyed watching them live. '

STEVIE Wonder's I Just Called to Say I Love You has been voted Australia's favourite song.
The song, which featured on the soundtrack to the movie The Woman in Red and first charted in September 1984, came up trumps in a poll conducted by the long-running weekly radio program, Take 40 Australia.
The surprise standout Australian performer on the list was Neighbours star Delta Goodrem whose two recent hits, Lost Without You and Born to Try, landed the third and fourth positions in the national poll – right after Eminem's Lose Yourself.
The only other Oz song in the Top 10 was John Farnham's You're the Voice.
Queensland's foremost contribution to the list – compiled from the 273 songs that reached No. 1 in the 20-year history of the radio show – is Savage Garden's Truly Madly Deeply at No. 15.
It's the longest-running Australian-made No. 1 hit, with eight weeks on top.
"I'm really thrilled with the news," Darren Hayes, the former voice of Savage Garden, told The Sunday Mail yesterday from his San Francisco home, where he is working on material for a new album.
