Something I've been very excited about is new Darren Hayes material. The ex-Savage Garden singer/songwriter has released his new single, Talk Talk Talk, which will be taken off his fourth studio album (Secret Codes And Battleships) released later this year.
The track is co-penned and produced by Carl Falk (think Don't Hold Your Breath by Nicole Scherzinger); and is a very radio-friendly, dreamy synth-pop, instantly-likable track. Whilst I was clearly impressed on first listen, after a multitude of plays on my iPod/iPhone/iMac/car stereo (ahem), it continues to grow further on me each day.
As an added bonus, the digital package available worldwide last Friday includes the b-side Angel - a cover of Madonna's 1985 single (taken from her Like A Prayer album). It's an awesome accompaniment. And, it may or may not have better vocals than the original. Just sayin'.
Will this single provide Hayes the global chart success he deserves? Let's hope so! He's definitely due for some chart lovin' in Australia.
Talk Talk Talk is available digitally today [ITUNES]
