| I remember listening to this song nonstop 6 years ago before I met someone for the first time... "you'll never know what hit you when I get to you" has never rang so true, haha. I love the memories this song holds for me. such a fun and upbeat tune! i've been closing my eyes quite often these days. =P cpj: it's saying that sometimes words are merely in the way of what you really want to do. prolonging the inevitable! it's like refusing to jump when you're already falling! I guess you could say it's got some innuendo there... heh. | |

| This song fuckin rocks, it's like an ultimate feel good song, and it reminds me of the summer when I went to soccer camp with my friends, all we'd do is listen to this song. Not that anyone cares, but I love it haha :D | |

| Of course there are sexual connotations, it's called "I Want You" :) and I love SG sensual lyrics. In this particular case, I used to enjoy the faces that Darren makes during the video..."so can we find out..?" :p | |

| From http://www.darrenhayesnet.com/quotes.html; «and what I Want You is talking about is a wet dream... basically. [...] I mean, listen to the lyrics 'Every time I need to see your face I just close my eyes'» Man. I love him. I love this song. It's just so fun. :D | |

| This is my favoritest song in the entire world... I was obsessed with Savage Garden like 2 years ago and I still adore them today.. I can sing this whole song without hesitation.. it just takes time to listen to it and figure out the words..then the ones u dont get.. look at the lyrics haha.. but i was determined to learn it..and I did.. alot of people are amazed that I can sing the whole thing..flawlessly! | |
