Truly Madly Completely: The Best of Savage Garden is a compilation album released by Australian pop duo Savage Garden.

Background

The album was released worldwide on 1 November 2005, within the exception of the United States, where it was not available until 4 February 2006. The album was released to commemorate Savage Garden's tenth year in the music industry, and their overwhelming success, despite only releasing two albums—Savage Garden and Affirmation. The album was originally planned for release in 2003, containing thirteen of the band's singles, minus "Chained to You", and two bonus tracks—"All Around Me" and "I Don't Care".[1] However, due to contractual issues, the album release was cancelled. In 2005, Hayes and Columbia records came together to organise a similar release, to be made available in the fourth quarter of 2005. Released on 1 November 2005, the album contains ten of the group's singles, all digitally remastered, in addition to five non-album B-Sides, as well as two new solo tracks from Hayes, "California" and "So Beautiful", the latter of which was released as a single on 31 October 2005, to promote the compilation. The album was made available with four different colour sleeves. A limited edition version of the album, containing a bonus DVD, was made available in Australia and Japan. The DVD contained seven music videos and a documentary video on the duo. Till August 2006,the album sold 31,000 in United States.[2]
