4th November 2002 sees Darren Hayes release his soaring, romantic new single “I Miss You”, the 3rd track taken from Darren’s smash debut solo album “Spin”.
Darren Hayes is currently touring the UK this month for the first time as a solo artist. Darren has named it the “Too Close For Comfort Tour”, a title that sums up the fact that Darren won’t be playing the big stadiums typical of Savage Garden. Instead, Darren will perform in slightly smaller venues, promising a more intimate experience for his fans. Tickets for the first London date sold out in just 2 days and due to massive demand lots of extra dates have been added. More than half of the UK tour is sold out and the reaction has been astounding. The final date of Darren’s incredibly successful tour will be in London on Oct 16th at Hammersmith Apollo. Darren Hayes has already proved beyond any doubt his star quality as a solo artist with the stunning success of his debut album “Spin” which was released in March this year and debuted at no.2 in the album charts. “Spin” is now platinum certified, 23 weeks later the album still shifts several thousand copies a week. Darren’s first 2 solo releases: ‘Insatiable” crashed into the charts at no.8 and remained in the Top 20 for 9 weeks, followed by “Strange Relationship” which was a top 15 hit and airplay smash. “I Miss You” is a sweeping display of Darren’s incredible vocal talents and is destined for ‘unforgettable anthem’ status. Darren Hayes co-produced “Spin” with Grammy Award-winning Walter Afanasieff (Ricky Martin, Mariah Carey, Savage Garden) and spent a year co-writing more than 35 songs for the album. “Spin” is Darren’s third project, following the global success of two smash albums with Savage Garden partner Daniel Jones. The duo's 1997 self-titled debut and 1999's “Affirmation” have sold in excess of 20 million copies world-wide. Darren’s solo project “Spin” has taken him to a new creative level with heaps of acclaim from the press, Q Magazine said of the album “Hayes is eating up the world with an album of slowly revealed charm. He’s as versatile a vocalist as Michael Jackson, (spot the difference on ‘Heart Attack’), and he’s brimming with song-writing ideas, try forgetting ‘Strange Relationship’ “. And The Face gives Darren his dues “If the single is on its last legs…how come Darren Hayes’ ‘Insatiable’ is still doing its nimble, mid-eighties style, slow-descent-then-up-a-bit thing after nine weeks?” |
