Foreigner "Waiting For A Girl Like You"

"Waiting for a Girl Like You" is a song by British-American rock band Foreigner. The distinctive synthesizer theme was performed by the then-unknown Thomas Dolby. It was the second single released from the album 4 (1981), and was co-written by Lou Gramm and Mick Jones. It has become one of the band's most famous songs worldwide, peaking at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and at #8 on the UK Singles Chart. Despite not reaching the top of the Hot 100, it reached #1 on the Rock Tracks chart for one week. "Waiting for a Girl Like You" achieved an odd chart distinction by spending a record-setting 10 weeks in the #2 position of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, without ever reaching the top. [Wikipedia]
