About this listen

 Darren Hayes was always a storyteller. As a child, in suburban Queensland in the 1970s, he told himself he was going to be a pop star - and he did it. Throughout Savage Garden's astonishing success - which included multiple Australian number 1s, cracking the US charts and selling more than 35 million albums worldwide - he kept telling us stories of love and longing, through his vulnerable, open song lyrics.

But the reality of his life was much more complicated than the constraints of a three-minute pop song.
In Unlovable, for the first time, Darren recounts the events and circumstances that shaped his unique life: from the childhood trauma of growing up with a violent, alcoholic father, his journey with depression, to the dizzying heights of worldwide fame in Savage Garden, and everything in between.

Told in his own lyrical words, Unlovable is a magical dark fairytale that reclaims the terrors and obstacles of his past to reveal the fabulous artist he has become. Entertainment & Celebrities Heartfelt Inspiring Thought-Provoking Mental Health

Wow what a journey Darren took us on. It’s a moving tale which had me in tears several times remembering my own traumatic childhood. Brilliantly read. I’ve loved this man’s music for more years than a care to remember. Being so honest and humble in this book which must’ve been so painful at times only made me love him more for his courage and healing.
