Editorial Review:
Former Savage Garden-er Darren Hayes's long-awaited solo debut proves that light pop music can taste mighty good. The swoon-inspiring Aussie singer's love for the Smokey Robinson- and Michael Jackson-era Motown sound shines throughout Spin, though Hayes adds a slightly salty edge to the shiny, happy proceedings. The lightweight arrangements are mostly synth based, with cursory nods to au courant trends. "Insatiable" is bolstered by a slight Latin groove; "Crush (1980 Me)" recalls the Human League's sassy, computer bop; "Heart Attack" vividly recalls the aforementioned Jackson. The wistful ballads "I Miss You" and "Good Enough" are as fizzy as root beer floats. --Rebecca Levine

Darren's solo work is a bit more edgy, and electronic sounding. Never the less amazing. When I found out about the release of his debut solo album I bought three. If you liked Savage Garden, you'll love this.
Rating:  - A decent effort for a first solo album
Spin is the debut solo album for Darren Hayes, the former lead singer of Savage Garden.
Lead-off single "Insatiable" is a ballad that uses strings and has a hint of a Latin feel. It's a good song, although its main flaw is an overly-long ending. "Crush (1980 Me)" is the standout track on the album; it's the most uptempo song on Spin, and is heavily influenced by the 1980's for both the lyrics and the music. "Crush (1980 Me)" is easily my favorite song on the whole album. Most of ... Read More

If you're a fan of Savage Garden, then you should pick this up. Darren Hayes's voice is so sexy and the songs on the album are the best.
Rating:  - Nice first step
I enjoyed the cd, it is a tad bit different from what he did with Savage Garden. But still enjoyable listen for the most part. There were only 4 songs that i wasn't really feeling throughout the CD. But everything was solid. He has always been a great songwriter and you see that on different songs like Strange Relationship, Insatiable, I Miss You and Dirty. Which is kind of weird, he's like a stalker after someone that he really likes and breaks it down in detail. Its totally different. Also ... Read More
Rating: - Cool Songs
I regret myself why I didn't chase the post-Savage-Garden. This album includes the eazy cozy songs by the most powerful composers all over the world such as Walter Afanasieff (Mariah Carey) and Rick Nowels (Belinda Carlisle) that I've ever been thinking.
Good Enough is good enough to be the best song of this album against its modest tune (and please tell me What You Like about the best song).
