1998年一月二十八日從澳洲展開The Future of Delites全球巡迴演唱會,自澳洲出發前往亞洲、美國等地區。同年推出To the Moon and Back單曲及Truly Madly Deeply,後者為告示牌排行榜冠軍,打敗艾爾頓強的風中之燭,也使野人花園在國際一舉成名。
1999年11月,野人花園推出第二張專輯《認定》,首支單曲I knew I loved you在告示牌排行榜連續四週冠軍。The Animal Song更是成為電影《The Other Sister》「愛情DIY」的主題曲。
2001年就在野人花園音樂事業正大紅大紫時,團員丹尼爾·瓊斯宣告退出,野人花園隨即宣告解散。解散後丹尼爾·瓊斯往幕後製作發展;戴倫·海斯繼續個人的歌唱生涯。2002年3月出了《Spin》心靈節奏專輯;2004年發行《The Tension and the Spark》「心電感應」專輯。解散後四年,2005年十一月,野人花園推出野人花園最終精選《Truly Madly Completely──The Best of Savage Garden》,其中包含野人花園冠軍暢銷歌曲及戴倫·海斯單飛後新作,算是替倉促解散的野人花園畫下完滿的句點。
