    I think what was meant by the phrase "trust is more important than monogamy" was that trust is more important than marriage. Almost as if saying that trust comes before it, just a basic rule or statement.

    I think Darren Hayes has described Affirmation as 'a sound track to your life'.

    truly amazing with strong lyrics. As every country has its national anthem similarly i think affirmation is the 'personal anthem' of every individual living on earth.

    Apart from some general recommendations, like not to go to bed angry, or to be nice to people, this song also contains some controversial statements. For example, Savage Garden appear to be sympathizing with polyamory ("I believe that trust is more important than monogamy"), they speak out against fast food, against televangelism, against the beauty ideal promoted in magazines and against the current implementation of capitalism.
