I am amassing a top 106.7 countdown collection from over the years and I can not find the song "Girl Waiting" by the band "Boy Waiting".
Does anybody know this might be found?
Thanks!
BTW, If anybody needs any 80's music that is considered new-wave, please let me know. I will help.

Jimbo,
I will try to enlist the help of my KROQ-knowledgeable friends Spaz and Eno on this board. I know nothing about this song/band <img src=icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>

Thank you Mike!
I appreciate the help!
I have been visiting the NW Outpost for about the last 18 months or so.
I am glad to see you have a Board up.
Great job!

I starting listening to KROQ in 1980 (Shadow Stevens, Phast Phreddie, Dusty Street) when I was in 6th grade. I know a little so if you have any questions about songs or bands I'll do my best to help. I stopped listening to it in 1987 so if it's after that

Hi Jimbo,
I've been doing the same thing for my KROQClassics.com webcast. I'm 238 songs away from completing the chart. The majority of these are not hard to find. I've been purchasing the CDs a chunk at a time.
I did purchase the Boy Waiting 12"

Thanks JimmyVee.
I'm on it now and not seeing it. Some with similar names, but not that exact song.
Maybe someday! [;)]

someone may want to check out:

it's an odd name for a label and even odder for two separate labels to share that name. google searching the executive producer of that single may also help you as well. they may still be producing
