'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling

And every time we kiss, I swear I could fly

@eriner you really need to stop those homoerotic thoughts... just sayin'

@eriner @amerika

Whilst, Savage Garden wasn't necessarily a "gay band" per se, but the duo's lead singer, Darren Hayes, did come out as gay after the group disbanded in 2001. He was married to a woman during the Savage Garden years, but he's since become a vocal advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and same-sex marriage. So while the band itself wasn't explicitly identified as gay, one of its members was, and his coming out has certainly added a new layer of meaning to some of their songs.

@eriner @amerika

I thought you were making "gay" references with the lyrics to "Truly Madly Deeply" by Savage Garden.

"Mom, turn off this upbeat music on the radio. I want to listen to men sing sad songs instead"

@eriner

Yeah. That explains it. I was 30 something then.

@chromeratt @fuknukl @amerika

I always forget I can't make pop music references here because everyone is at least twice my age.

Here's one y'all may remember:

Wow. I'm headed to the Emergency Room, because I just got BURNED!
