From Woodridge, Australia to worldwide success, Darren Hayes and Daniel Jones were responsible for some of the most widely-known pop songs of the late '90s and early '00s. Appropriately enough, given their Anne Rice-inspired name, Savage Garden veered between lush ballads (Truly Madly Deeply, I Knew I Loved You) and up-tempo dance numbers (I Want You, The Animal Song) with a deftness that put many of their contemporaries in the shade.
In July of 1996, under Roadshow Music, the duo released their debut single I Want You.

Verse 1: AC#m In Santa Monica, in the wintertime F#mEA The la - zy streets so undemanding C#mF#mE I walk into the crowd A In Santa Monica C#mF#mDA You get your coffee from the coolest places on the promenade C#mF#mDE Where people dress just so C#m7D Beauty so unavoidable, everywhere you turn it's there C#m7D I sit and wonder what am I doing here?
Chorus: AED E But on the telephone line I am anyone, I am anything I want to be F#mE I can be a supermodel or Norman Mailer D And you wouldn't know the difference
Or would you? AC#mF#mE Ooh......
Verse 2: In Santa Monica, all the people got modern names like Jake or Mandy And modern bodies too In Santa Monica, on the boulevard You'll have to dodge those in-line skaters Or they'll knock you down I never felt so lonely Never felt so out of place I never wanted something more than this
Chorus #2: But on the telephone line I am anyone, I am anything I want to be I could be a super model or Norman Mailer And you wouldn't know the difference On the telephone line I am any height, I am any age I want to be I could be a caped crusader, or space invader And you wouldn't know the difference Or would you?
