How refreshing it is to discover a video collection that relies onnothing except the music--no interviews, no biographical material, no promos,just five tasty tunes presented in a clean, concise 21 minutes. So it is withSavage Garden: The Video Collection, which offers the best of theAustralia-based group's mid- to late-'90s output. Released in 1998, the packageincludes the hits "I Want You," "To the Moon and Back," and "Truly Madly Deeply"(with lovely, sepia-toned Parisian locations), as well as "Break Me Shake Me"and "Tears of Pearls"; none of them were commercially available prior to therelease of this set. Heartthrob singer Darren Hayes takes center stage most ofthe time, joined by longtime musical partner Daniel Jones and their other,unidentified bandmates. Given the absence of extra frills, it's up to the musicto carry the proceedings--and Savage Garden's does. --Sam Graham ... Read more

SAVAGE GARDEN IS FANTASTIC
i gave savage garden 5 stars, i would have gave them 1,000 if i could. Savage Garden is the best band to ever walk the face of the earth. this video is great for a number of reasons. first, savage garden has a great way with words, the lyrics are sensational. second, Darren Hayes and Daniel Jones are 2 of the most beautiful guys on earth. third, the video they have is awesome. the futuristic background in I Want You. (or thats what i think) in To The Moon and Back i love the darkness of the video and i wish i could be the chinese/japanese woman in the subway that darren is singing in her ear. in Truly Madly Deely, i ABSOLUTLY LOVE Paris. that was a great place to shoot the video for TMD. it just does something to me that i cant explain. its just sensational. Break Me, Shake Me, i LOVE the way they show the concerts right before they sing "Break Me, Shake Me". and Tears Of Pearls is great! i love darren's cyber coat. i like the concert views. i love darren's actions in that video too, like the way he dances and moves around the stage and other things. if you havent been to a concert, you should go when they are touring again. the concert i went to was GREAT! please send me mail. :-) Liz - SvgeGrdnLS@aol.com

Savage Garden is awesome and this tape totally proves it!!!
I love Savage Garden. They are the best band. Buy this video and you will not regret it. Darren and Daniel both look great. If you have not seen any of thier music videos then you need to. All of them are great. I love "I Want you" with its futuristic background. Awesome job, Darren and Daniel, you both are wonderful!!!

Awesome 5 videos.
This music DVD scores 5 stars for what is on it-the 5 videos.
But it scores poorly for what it lacks.-the australian videos and mabye a short biography/discography or some comments by the duo, or some pics.

I am still looking for a way to get a hold of the Aussie videos- email me if you know a way.

Sorry, but a score of 4 is given due to the lack of any extras or aussie videos.

You must buy this!
I am a huge Savage Garden fan, and the videos in this are just brilliant, with some great shots of Darren & Daniel! If you aren't a Savage Garen fan, and didn't really like the Affirmation album YOU SHOULD STILL BUY THIS or at least listen to their 1st album. It is so different to their 2nd album, there is something in there for everybody, and the videas are so great! I love it!! The "best thing" you could ever find!!

A big thankyou to Savage Garden.
I loved this DVD. It gave me chance to see videos that were never seen in this country,USA. This DVD is worth the money, sit back and enjoy. I'ts a keeper. ... Read more

In a just world, this dead-on parody would be the final, funny word on theboy-band phenomenon. If you love the music of the Backstreet Boys and N'Sync, you'llenjoy 2Ge+her. And if you hate color-by-numbers hits from cookie-cutter musical acts,you'll have even more reason to love this film. Sure it's formulaic--that's the whole point.Take the "mockumentary" format pioneered by Spinal Tap, subtract the declineof heavy metal, add that contemporary Real World/Road Rulessensibility (only seven days to form a hit boy band!), and multiply that by a handful ofwickedly funny yet seriously catchy songs, and you've got this movie. It's hard to know ifany of the strategically chosen five members--the Rebel, the Heartthrob, the Little One,the Shy Guy, and the chunky, balding Older Brother--ever expected their fiendishlyfleshed-out portrayals of some seriously cardboard stereotypes to launch a genuine popphenomenon. But after the final credits roll, extra footage shows the band's eerilytriumphant live appearance on MTV's ultimate boy-band showcase, Total RequestLive, and interviews detail the actors' pleased surprise at becoming yet another oneof those bands "prepubescent girls throw their retainers at," in spite of such obviouslysarcastic songs as "Say It, Don't Spray It." No matter how you feel about today's prefabpop, by the time you've watched this video to its end, you will find yourselfhumming 2Ge+her's hit single, "U+Me=Us (Calculus)." The level of irony behind it is upto you. --Grant Balfour ... Read more

I've seen the Movie and Love it ;0)
I'm a 2gether fan: Okay, I haven't bought the DVD, but I am going to buy it. I just wanted to tell everybody that it is a great movie and once you watch it, you'll just go ga-ga over these cute adorable guys. And I'd like to say," thank you to the writers of Mtv for making such a great piece of work!" The 2gether group has this "Charisma" thats so extroadinary and amazing and verrrry unforgettable characters. Kevin Farley, Alex Solowitz, Noah Dale Bastian, Evan Farmer, and Micheal Cuccione are so real and true to their characters. I just want to say, " this movie ROCKS!" ~~~Go BUY it!~~~ ***LONG LIVE///Micheal (Qt)///FOREVER!***

The best movie I've ever seen in my whole entire life!!!!!!!
This movie is all about the hotties of 2ge+her.Their music is awesome and their personalitys are hilarios!Mickey Parke aka Alex Solowitz is the bad boy rebel type and he is so stupid and funny.He is also very hot.then there's Chad Linus aka Noah Bastian the shy one.He is so adorable and incredibly funny.Then there is Doug Linus aka Kevan Farley the reasuring older brother type,he is Chad's brother and is pretty old looking!then there's QT aka Michael Cuccione the cute one.He plays the obsessed with girls one and he is pretty funny.then of course there is Jerry aka Evan Farmer the heartthrob.I think this movie is so cool so you should get it!!!

Coolest Movie Ever
I love this movie! It has always been one of my faves, I watched it everytime it reruned on MTV! I haven't seen it in a very long time, and I've wanted to, and I looked on Amazon and discovered it was on video and knew I had to get it! So I will probably order it soon! It's very funny and has catchy songs!

Whoa!It's an "Awesum" movie!!
2gether the movie is one of the BEST movies of ALL TIME!! As stupid as the whole plot is, it's the best parody ever made. If you were old enough to unfourtunatley experience the "Boy Band" phase America went through, you'd appreciate the humor of this movie! Also, if you watched the T.V show when it was on MTV, it was hilarious, I wish they had it on tv still, I fortunatley taped some of the episodes! Noah Bastian(chad a.k.a the shy one)is so Hot! He is hilarious, he has classic lines in this movie that my friends and i always quote! Also, Doug(the older brother type) is hilarious, he's 35 and is in the boy band. They give him braces to make him look younger and its soo funny! Jerry (the Heart throb)is hot, but his character gets jealous way too easily, he's now on "while you were out" as the host. Mickey is the poser,he is a wannabe rapper but is such a softie undderneath it. Jason Q.T McKnight is my favorite next to chad. God bless him.He was hilarious. I just was so sad that they made fun of his disease. Overall, this is one of the most "awesum" movie I've ever seen! BUY IT!! ;)

2Gether
2Gether is a hysterical movie that combines music, humor, and sterotypical events into one. I suggest this movie to those whom dislike real boy bands, and to those who need/love a good laugh. ... Read more
