I think that's what's really beautiful about music, that it is little pieces of your heart and soul.
I was a completely normal kid, the school nerd. In Year 8 and 9 I got picked on. I was a freak- no one understood me. I was the kid who wanted to be abducted by ET. Then all the losers left in Year 10. But I was quite good at school, and very artistic. In Year 11 it turned around. I became one of the coolest kids in school. I was in school musicals- the kid who could sing. It was bizzare. I loved school. It's an amazing little world. The rules inside the school are different from the outside world.
If you think I have a great voice and body, youll be shocked as hell seeing and hearing me in the shower.
I said (to Daniel Jones), 'You realise I'm always going to be The Guy From Savage Garden'. He said, 'How do you think I feel? I'm The Other One From Savage Garden!'
If you've only had one relationship, how do you know you're good in bed?
I think I have a reputation for being really serious. In interviews I use big words, but I'm just an emotional goofball. I play practical jokes all the time.
Let me give you a lesson about school. All the kids who were popular end up on the dole with babies. All the nerds end up as pop stars
If you want me to be straight, gay, into monkeys, dating Kylie, whatever, I'm happy for people to project whatever onto me!
I know it's not very masculine to say the moon is beautiful...but it is!
I would let my child do whatever made their heart sing
Elation and pain are experiences that make you realize youre alive. Thank God you feel them; otherwise youd be numb.
When I was 10 I used to walk around shopping centres and go, "Oh, they've recognised me!" And I would think, "hold on, who am I? I'm nobody famous yet!" - Darren on 60 Minutes
That's what got me into exercise and training my body and my voice. I looked at Madonna as this G.I. Jane superstar. I used to go jogging around my neighborhood at midnight sometimes and I'd be thinking, it'll all be worth it one day.
I've never been the sort of person to walk into a room and have *clicks fingers* 50 women want to sleep with me, ok, and suddenly you walk across a stage and you have a video clip and you know girls want to go out with you and think you're beautiful!
If you're straight, if you're gay - hey, if you're a horse - and I appeal to you, great!
When I realised I wasn't Michael Jackson and I was this 10 year old boy growing up in the suburbs, I was devastated
Dont believe the hype. It tastes like someone scraped off the bottom of a birdcage and stuck it on a piece of toast.
I used to wash up the dishes as C3PO. And it's very hard to put cups away when this joint doesn't bend! Mum was very tolerant.
It's me! It's me! It's always me! [Darren when asked who smelled so good at the MTV Live interview in New York]
