Affirmation is the second and final studio album by Australian pop duo Savage Garden, released on 1 November 1999 by Columbia Records.
The majority of the album was written by Hayes in New York in September 1999 or slightly earlier that year.
Preceded by the second single "I Knew I Loved You", the album was released on 9 November 1999 to worldwide success.
Including sales of the re-issue, the album has sold more than 8 million copies worldwide, being certified platinum in a number of countries.
The International version removes the remix, CD-ROM and features a cut version of "Gunning Down Romance", due to a manufacturing error where six seconds of music are cut between 4:36 and 4:42, causing the music to stop abruptly.
