Waiting...


Recent events have made me recall a song from my youth... "Wait" by White Lion. Currently, the only relevant word is "Wait." The song was released as a single in 1987 and went Platinum. It is from the album Pride. Listen below... Perhaps the next song from our youth to recall is Patience.


From Wikipedia:

"'Wait' is a song recorded by White Lion and written by White Lion vocalist Mike Tramp and guitarist Vito Bratta. It was the lead single from their second album, Pride. It is well known for its guitar solo at the 2:15 mark.
The single was released on June 1, 1987, but did not chart until February 1988, around the time the band filmed theirLive in New York concert for MTV. In May 1988, 'Wait' finally cracked the top 10 in the US, peaking at #8. The song also charted at #48 in Canada and #88 in the UK."

  1. OK, I have now lost some respect for you. White Lion? Really? Next, you'll be sharing that you once considered a mullet. :)

  3. Cool tune. Don't remember the band, though. Oh, wait, 1987 was a point in my life when I swore off "hair bands."
