Couple ?
editDoes anyone know if Rolf and Fionnuala are a marriage or couple in romantic terms? Nothing ever appears anywhere either claiming or disclaiming this, but many songs and photographs do suggest it could be. If they are a couple could be interesting to mention since it would have certain influence on their music and their getting together as a duo.--200.14.108.1 17:08, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
This could be interesting, does anybody know?--Thedaydreamer 16:08, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
- They are not couple. Though collaborating with Fionnuala, Rolf has his wife. No rumors about their possible love affair were heard. Dreamback1116 (talk) 08:39, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
"Fairytales" ?
editI wonder if they have really released an album called "Fairytales". Strongly feel that it is a mistake... If nobody disagrees, I would better correct it... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.89.188.4 (talk • contribs) 05:27, November 12, 2005
I think so. "Fairytales" is not an album but a song. Secret Garden's 4th album "once in a redmoon" includes this song which is the same name. This article needs editing.
Seems "Fairytales" might be a collection album, named "Fairytales - Highlights from Secret Garden", however they (Secret Garden) don't list it on their official web site where they do list "Dreamcatcher" which is also a best-of collection album... Laniala (talk) 13:14, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
About "Nocturne"
editEh, if it was an instrumental piece, it wouldn't have won the Eurovision SONG contest. It would have been disqualified. Why, you can probably google for the lyrics.
Nocturne was an instrumental piece, but in order to enter Eurovision Song contest, Sherry added a few lines in the beginning and the end of the piece. --inky 05:00, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Hang on a minute...
editShould this band really be the main article for "The Secret Garden"? Surely the book is much better known, and is in fact the name on which the band's name is based? This seems a bit stupid. I really wouldn't know about how to go around fixing it though. Any ideas? JF Mephisto 12:06, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- I just typed "The Secret Garden" into the search field, clicked "Go", and Wikipedia displayed the article about the book. Both the articles (on the book and the music duo) have links to the "Secret Garden" disambigation page. It all seems in order to me. Charivari 02:46, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
- You're right, I was typing "Secret Garden." All the same, shouldn't that lead to at least disambiguation page from that search and not to the band? I think there's quite a chasm in public knowledge between the two, and I also think it's quite likely there'll be a number of people searching for the book who neglect to add the "the." JF Mephisto 16:38, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
- I see what you mean. I'll boldly move this article to Secret Garden (duo) and then move the disambiguation page to Secret Garden. Charivari 07:09, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
- This article is now "Secret Garden (duo)". One problem: All the pages that link to "Secret Garden" now have to be edited to link directly to "Secret Garden (duo)" before the dab page can be moved. I'll make a start on that now. Charivari 07:24, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
- I've finished the edits, but the final rename (of Secret Garden (disambiguation) to Secret Garden will need to be done by an administrator as the first move created a redirect page called Secret Garden, thereby preventing ordinary users from overwriting it. I've added the request to the Wikipedia:Requested moves page. Charivari 08:40, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
- Regarding the statement that all links directly to the (duo) page need to be changed before the dab page can be moved, would it be possible for WikiMedia (or whatever OSS group handles the code) to make a utiltity to change the name of a page, which would then change all links from other pages? -- Jim Witte —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.9.143.221 (talk) 17:41, 10 February 2007 (UTC).
Stephen King
editHas there been any speculation on whether or not this band is very inspired by the works of Stephen King? Must be something there, they have the same name as a Stephen King novella and they have, among others, made a song called Dreamcatcher, also a book by said author. If it's understood shouldn't it be mentioned? Worth checking out anyway.Thaum1el (talk) 07:41, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- Do you have a source? But even if there's a source I think it's too trivial: Stephen King had authored so many pieces of literature it's not surprising that coincidences occur. --antilivedT | C | G 07:52, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
I doubt that name is a coincidence. The name catches the imagination. There is actually a device, a little like a mobile, that is called a dream catcher. It is Native American - Dreamcatcher. So you can thank the Chippewa, not Stephen King for the wonderful name. If you read the linked article, you will see the device is "used as a charm to protect sleeping children from nightmares". You don't even have to read the short story to guess the story line.
New albums
editFall 2020, Secret Garden with Cathrine Iversen released 'Sacred Night', a special Christmas album with the re-release of I Know A Rose Tree and Mary's Lament in addition of 5 new songs. Can someone who knows how to write in Wikipedia add that to the actual section? 46.9.222.50 (talk) 09:00, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
