The Future of Earthly Delites is a compilation album released by Australian pop duo Savage Garden, released to promote their world tour of the same name. The album includes two discs: one featuring their self-titled debut album "Savage Garden", and a second featuring several remixes and B-sides. Two versions of the album were released: one in Australia, featuring the original Australian version of the album, containing "Mine" and "All Around Me", and one in Europe, containing the International version of the album, removing "Mine" and "All Around Me", but adding "Promises".^[1] Later pressings of the Australian version of the album include an alternate version of the Tears on the Dancefloor Mix of "Tears of Pearls", featuring more reverb on the vocals. The reason for this has not been explained.^[2]
