I said three Beatles were alive AT MOST. That gives you a span of more than 20 years.

it's a 90s song.

And peppy. upbeat.

Not that you can tell from these depressing lyrics

Plant a seed, plant a flower, plant a rose
You can plant any one of those
Keep planting to find out which one grows
It's a secret no one knows
It's a secret no one knows
Oh, no one knows

I wouldn't really know what peppy is but were looking for something depressing, dead, dark and dreary.. a number on from the 90's..upbeat...Bittersweet Symphony is dark but not upbeat, Nirvana Smells Like Teen Spirit isn't peppy (whatever that means) but its dreary.    And sorry I don't know how to take off this image .

You have so many relationships in this life
Only one or two will last
You go through all the pain and strife
Then you turn your back and they're gone so fast
Oh yeah
And they're gone so fast, yeah

Oh, so hold on the ones who really care
In the end they'll be the only ones there
And when you get old and start losing your hair
Can you tell me who will still care?
Can you tell me who will still care?
Oh care
...
Plant a seed, plant a flower, plant a rose
You can plant any one of those
Keep planting to find out which one grows
It's a secret no one knows
It's a secret no one knows
Oh, no one knows
...
In an [title] they're gone
In an [title] they're not there
In an [title] they're gone
In an [title] they're not there
Until you lose your hair
Oh but you don't care, yeah
...
Can you tell me? Oh
No, you can't 'cause you don't know
Can you tell me? Oh yeah
You say you can but you don't know
Can you tell me? Oh (which flower's going to grow?)
No, you can't, but you don't know
Can you tell me? (if it's going to be a daisy or a rose?)
You say you can but you don't know
Say you can but you don't know
You don't know how, you don't know how

New song, same era

 

Anytime i need to see your face i just close my eyes

and I'm taken to a place where your crystal mind

and magenta feelings take up shelter at the base of my spine

sweet like a chick-a-cherry cola

I don't need to try to explain
I just hold on tight and If it happens again
I may move so slightly to the arms
And the lips and the face
Of The Human Cannonball that
I need to I want to

Come stand a little bit closer

breathe in and get a bit higher

you'll never know what hit you when i get to you

we're on a new song now. Not sure this one made it to number 1, but it was a big hit.

 

Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola
I don't need to try to explain
I just hold on tight and If it happens again
I may move so slightly to the arms
And the lips and the face
Of The Human Cannonball that
I need to I want to
Come stand a little bit closer
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you when
I get to you
Ooh [title], I don't know if I need you but
Ooh I'd die to find out
Ooh [title], I don't know if I need you but
Ooh I'd die to find out
I'm the kind of person who endorses a deep commitment
Getting comfy getting perfect is what I live for
But a look and then a smell of perfume
It's like I'm down on the floor
And I don't know what I'm in for
Conversation has a time and place in the interaction
Of a lover and a mate but the time of talking
Using symbols, using words can be likened
To a deep sea diver who is swimming with a raincoat
Come stand a little bit closer
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you when
I get to you
 
 
the rest of the lyrics are repeated.

The fast-sung lyrics meant that one phrase was often mis-heard--- as a "chicken cherry cola" and similar.

It's "a DRINK OF Cherry Cola."

This was Savage Garden's breakout hit, "I Need You."    I liked it a lot, but liked their other 2 hits better,

"Truly, Madly, Deeply" and "I Knew I Loved You".

Okay Raf,  but what was the previous songs title that was number one if you wouldn't mind telling me from all those years ago?  I'm wondering if I was awake or not when it came out?
