...those Savage Garden guys sure know what to sing to make a girl swoon. If you've liked what you've heard from their first album ("Truly Madly Deeply"), then Daniel Jones and Darren Hayes' second is a must-buy, especially for any cheesy romantic.

I far prefer songs with meanings to which I can relate, so that when I sing along I am uttering words and thoughts and feelings which have a point relevant to my life. Points--not only in math--lead to lines and planes which define dimensions. And in the abstract reality which makes life artistic and worthwhile, it is a complex dimensionality which contextualizes...
