DARREN HAYES LOVES TO DO MADONNA COVERS!!

Aussie singer and former Savage Garden singer Darren Hayes came out a few years ago, and I have a feeling his young gay years were spent much like mine...LISTENING TO MADONNA!! He has since done several covers of Madonna classics and, since it's Madonna Friday and all, I'm going to share them with you all. Because I love you like that. Darren's voice is pretty amazy, so it lays on these songs like a...well....prayer, for lack of a better word. I think you'll agree. And if you don't, well, you'll more than likely feel bad about yourself all day and fall into a depression so deep that you'll never come out of it. Or something like that. I'm vamping. Here we go with Ray of Light, Dress You Up, Angel and Like a Prayer. He is pretty great on every single one, I must say. Listen and love, people.

DARREN HAYES COVERS AN OLD-SCHOOL MADONNA CLASSIC

Here is Darren Hayes, former frontman of Savage Garden, covering the Madonna oft-forgotten, under-appreciated classic from her 1984 album Like A Virgin,the #5 hit Angel. It appears as a bonus track on his current single Talk Talk Talk. This is one of my personal faves of Madonna from any album, any period. Glad to hear it caught Darren's ear too. This is good stuff. You can get this and Madonna's version on iTunes.
