Affirmation (Expanded Edition)

Digitally remastered and expanded two CD digipak edition featuring a bonus disc with live and rare recordings. Savage Garden's second album, Affirmation, was made with a skyscraper-weight of expectation knowing that, unlike their debut, the world was listening and the band delivered another outstanding success. The flawless run of singles continued with The Animal Song, I Knew I Loved You, Affirmation, Hold Me and The Best Thing all becoming radio staples. Savage Garden is one of the most successful duos in pop music history and among the most successful Australian recording artists of all time with sales in excess of 20 million albums. They hold the Guinness Book of World Records for winning an unprecedented 10 Australian Recording Industry Association Awards in one year (1997). Savage Garden is one of only two Australian bands to have ever had two #1 singles in the US. The beauty of the first, self-titled album Savage Garden was how naive it all was. Songs written in suburban bedrooms became global anthems; the intimacy and innocence of their tunes was immediately genuine and untouched by corporate fingerprints. It was homemade, world-class music.
