certa vez, estava caminhando com um colega e havia me falado dessa música e quando tive a oportunidade de ouvir essa música. Realmente, essa música é linda.
Im 58 years old and this song takes me back to the 80s the best generation of all time, there was incredible amounts of creativity in all genres of music 🎵🎶🎵🎶
One of my favorite songs in my life. This one and "99" by Toto. Just a too romantic type of young woman back then, stoic on the outside, and just really none of that came around. That's why Spanish men.
80s music was crap. Zeppelin broke up. I guess Iron Maiden was solid. Other than that.... Prince was good I guess. I watched a 1983 segment of MuchMusic. Damn it was bad. Really bad.
39 years ago I was 30 years old..definitely single...was starting to wonder if I'd ever have the woman, the family I dreamed of. Then God and the U.S. Navy took me halfway around the world to a dirt road in the Philippines and I looked across the road and there she was. Next year we celebrate our 39th anniversary with our 4 children and three grandchildren. Some things are worth waiting for!!
I along with two friends went to the Foreigner concert last night(Friday) at Treasure island Casino in Welch,Minnesota about a hour's drive from the Twin Cities where I live. It was the the by far the most I paid($131.00) for a concert ticket by far but it was well worth it. It was my first time seeing these boys in concert. I have heard their songs in the radio and on the Utube but once i heard them I though that's a good song thats 's a good song and when i heard their collectively I realized that they a just a great band . How they are not in The Rock and Roll and Roll Hall of Fame is beyond me and lesser bands like one hit wonders like The Clash and The Clash and Cheap Trick with their silly trite songs.Their only good song was The Flame.The Rock and Roll and Roll Hall of Fame missed the boat on many levels But i degress.I think Kelly Hansen was just a s good as Lou Gramm and Mick Jones(I have only seen them perform on Utube.Hansen was engaging, funny and little raunchy. He kept the the audience engaged by jumping from one end of the stage to the other throughout. IT WAS THEIR GREATEST HITS/FAREWELL TOUR BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T WANT TO STAY AROUND TOO LONG.But perhaps they will change their minds like many rock bands (motivated by the urge to play live and money) and do a comeback tour. It was an older crowd-mostly over 50 and Hansen talked about it but he mentioned that the 40 and under group in the audience had good taste in music. Yes indeed! THERE WEREN'T ANY LIGHTERS LIGHTING UP(AS YOU WERE LIKELY TO SEE IN YOUNGER AUDIENCES) THEY WERE REPLACED BY CAMERA PHONES RECORDING THE EVENT. THEY PLAYED ALL OF THEIR BEST HITS INCLUDING MY TWO FAVORITES,THOSE SYuRPY LONG BALLADS," Waiting for a girl like you" and ' mega hit "I want to what love is the song that broke up the original group mainly Gramm and Jones(too much ego for credit and money. I did find something interesting when they played "Urgent" I couldn't figure out if they piped in the saxophone or used a square like instrument to emit the saxophone sound which is the coolest sound in music.I have rambled enough,They were my second faviorite band (to the Beatles whom i grew up listening.) but they are not far behind those :"lad s from liverpool!
I was listening to this song while this woman I had only known a a few weeks slept. I knew she’d be an important part of my life. I wasn’t sure how long it would last. I only knew I needed deep in my heart and soul. Seventeen years later she’s still the blessing, grace, and the heart of my life. This was the soundtrack…
This reminds me of my wife. I'm just riding on the bus in the south east of England where I live going into town I've just left my girl 20 minutes ago and I've sent her this song and a message. She has stuck with me through everything, alcoholism (26 years sober) and given me two beautiful sons Thank you Jesus and AA and the 12 step programme 👍♥️⭐🇬🇧✝️
It takes you back, doesn’t it? Haven’t thought about it for many years, but all of a sudden I’m back at the church dance, dancing with this cute very tall guy from a neighboring town, my ear up next to his chest, hearing him sing along very softly. Like another commenter, Linda Wigmore said. A cuddle from an old friend indeed. I really love how hearing this is inspiring all of your stories of your memories and how this music makes you feel. Music unites us, and we really do need more things that unite and connect us right now!
Thank you so much". Your support is what keeps me going, so in return l've decided to give something back to my fans by setting up an interactive community and I would love for you to join! Simply send a text♥️
I was 16 in 1981 when this song came out. I had just started going with the most beautiful girl . I couldn't believe she said yes when I asked her out. This was my song for her. I still think of her every time I hear this song.
That's sweet. It would be so cool if the two of you somehow found each other again and slow danced to this song together. Or better yet roller skated to it at a couples skate at a roller rink. That would be true 80s nostalgia. Peace.
I been listening to this from 1980's when I was 19 years, now I am 60 years, still enjoy listening ,good listening and my favourite band, a favourite song for Guys who are initial stage of Love, hats off to foreigner vocalist and the entire troop
Olvidate es lo más hermoso a los 60 años que lindo que te sigas estimulando con canciones hermosas que bueno es tan lindo escuchar u ver que otros les guste
1981's Foreigner 4 Album . . . . .This Song Is 1 Of The Most Beautiful Songs I Have Ever Heard, And I Remember Hearing This Song On The Radio Back In 1981 When I was 19 years Old, And I Have Loved It Ever Since . . . . . .Rock On Foreigner . . . .Cheers . :-)
Listen to the lead singer Lou Gramm _bend_ those notes so beautifully. "Yeah, Waaaiiiting." Perfect. Instead of a rotating vinyl disc, I'd love to see him performing this song.
This song was every young couples love song I remember playing it over and over on my cassette player the 80 s were a classic and bring back so many Good memories
It's strange, when we were young. We never thought that we would be saying "Back in my time" or "back in the day". Now look at us, grand kids and ect! All I can say is wow, 51 and still going. I want my, I want my, I want my MTV!
Foreigner has written some of the best ‘love songs’ - the composition of these songs are really well crafted , with the melodies , modulation and hooks . This song , obviously’I Want To Know What Live Is’ , ‘I Don’t Want To Live Without You’ and ‘Until The End Of Time’ - all amazing songs
So long, I've been looking too hard I've been waiting too long Sometimes I don't know what I will find I only know it's a matter of time When you love someone When you love someone It feels so right, so warm and true I need to know if you feel it too Maybe I'm wrong Won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong? This heart of mine has been hurt before This time I want to be sure I've been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life I've been waiting for a girl like you, your a love that will survive I've been waiting for someone new to make me feel alive Yeah, waiting for a girl like you to come into my life You're so good When we make love it's understood It's more than a touch or a word can say Only in dreams could it be this way When you love someone Yeah, I really love someone Now, I know it's right From the moment I wake up 'til deep in the night There's nowhere on earth that I'd rather be than holding you tenderly I've been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life I've been waiting for a girl like you, your a love that will survive I've been waiting for someone new to make me feel alive Yeah, waiting for a girl like you to come into my life I've been waiting, waiting for you, ooh Ooh, I've been waiting (Waiting) I've been waiting, yeah (I've been waiting for a girl like you, I've been waiting) Won't you come into my life? Ah
I haven't been depressed in a long time. A person can only take so much, betrayed 💔 over and over 💔 I'm a good sweet person and people stomping on me, where it stops...It doesn't 😢 I Love this song and always will.
I went to their Live "Foreigner Live in Japan, 1985". At that time, I got a autograph (with a message) from one of Foreigner's staff. The message was "Waiting For A Girl Like You". I was very happy. So, When I listen to this song, I feel like this song takes me back to the 1985.
Blast from the past! I believe I heard this on the bus to school in the early 90s. I was curious about what it was, mainly because of the synth riff, And for some reason, I was reminded of it, and needed to find it, but I didn't know what to look for. But I just heard it on TV, and the mystery was solved. And 1981? This is an example of when 70s retro meets 80s pop/rock.
As a 14-year old, when this was originally released in 1980, I had no concept what the term "ethereal" meant. This was also right on the cusp of the New Age movement, which was yet again, something I could not grasp or define. To be clear, I am NOT lumping this song into any such category, or anything remotely of the sort. And yet, hearing this song....from the very first time....resonated with me like nothing else before ever had, and shook me to my foundation in a way that caught me completely off-guard. The atmospheric overtones of the synth parts, the textures of the sonic landscape, and Lou Gramm's deep and meaningful lyrics about that which the heart often cries for the most....this song still, even 40 years later, triggers those responses. It shakes my soul, and bathes my thoughts in a landscape of sound and color unlike anything else. I cannot put it into proper words. Only that it continues to transport me to a different place and time. Those synth parts are, even to this very day, like a musical aphrodisiac to my brain. I have always been, and ever shall be, a fan of Foreigner's entire catalog. But for me, this song is their magnum opus.
Many, many fond memories of my youth. Now I am 52 years old and am just reminiscing whenever I listen to it. It has so much life and I can't get enough of listening to it.
@Melanie Mccallum music is powerful it's a form of worship in the church and has a big effect on emotions I believe it is a problem in the last few decades of cop killing gang banging hoe hating garbage they call music refuse to listen to any of that garbage 🗑️🗑️🗑️
A strange but true piece of trivia about the song Waiting For A Girl Like You: the keyboards on this song were played by Bob Mayo, the legendary keyboard player on the album Frampton Comes Alive by Peter Frampton. Mayo also toured with Foreigner around this same time.
I know. The love I have now is very rare it's like no other love I have ever had before it's a love I shall hold on to very tight and never let go of it it's the best love I have ever known. It's like living in heaven on earth. I can not be any happier then I am now. This live is the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life. I shall never let go of it. It's a real good thing its love. And love is baeutiful.
This song is so beautiful and will never get die. Its just a breath of fresh air from songs these days. I miss the good old days in the 80s when I was a teenager❤️❤️❤️😘👍
My mom told me back 37 years ago when she was in labor waiting for my arrival, they used to play the radio. She said coincidentally THIS SOMG PLAYED as I was making my debut!! Lol. Cooool as hell!!!!!!
Jesus...chills listening to this - reminds me of being a kid in NJ - when times were much simpler - when people actually gathered around and spent time together in person 😊
Jag har så mycket att säga...Men den lugna låten,om att älska och vänta...Så högsta betyg igen av Lou ❤ slutar Aldrig att lysstna på ditt innehåll..som håller mig där.Tack Lou❤ Spelar dina låtar varje dag...överger inte dig och Mig..Fantastiskt allt ❤ Marie 🥰❤🙋♀️

Se eu pudesse e se existisse o túnel do tempo, eu seria voluntário para voltar em 82 e curtir esse clássico do tempo da nossa mocidade! Viva a geração dos anos 60,70 e 80!
I’ve been waiting for mr right to sing this to me since I first heard it as a little girl. Time has slapped me back into reality. But I still absolutely love hearing the song & will take listening to Foreigner sing it any day.
The love of my life is coming back after 27 years. I will sing this to her when we set eyes upon each other again. I would love to have sung it to you had time and circumstance allowed as I feel the great warmth of your heart.
I just read the message down it's nice and inspiring...I am in the same situation...am 51 years old...I love this music and am looking around and admiring some beautiful woman and waiting for God to give the chance to meet that special lady. Keep listening to this beautiful melody boys and girls... cuidense mucho ok!!!
This song so captured me back in the day. I knew she loved me and I loved her.She was killed before we were married. This is the song we grooved to. RIP Julie

@@905JimRaynor Some 80s music is crap. A lot of 80s music is great. Led Zeppelin was mediocre. Prince was even worse-virtually irredeemable garbage.
Oh WOW! I'm 53 years old now. I had the.45 tecord of this song when I was 12! Such a great song.... and group!
I'm 53 also. I had the same record! I bought it with my paper route money. Lol
80's music, pure talent will never die!!!,❤️
Best song ever played it at my partner's funeral I am now 76 & still love the lyrics
LG has a fantastic voice.
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard
The synth melody is so beautiful
One of the best
We can thank Thomas Dolby for his synthesizer intro and work in this song
Cool☺🥰
I want to go back to the 80's and stay there forever !! 🤗
Me too😁!
Have fun, I'll take the 70's.
Me too 👍🏻
Would love to go back to the late 70's into the very early 90's!!!! When music was actually music!!!
Yeh, been there, pretty good!!😂@@wolflarson6831
Such a tribute that this 80s masterpiece is being played on vinyl, this will still be adored by generations to come
55 years old still in love with this song. miss the days when romance was the in thing. the world has changed.
Yes. There was a lot of romance, prepiness and good songs in the 80's. And the world has changed, but not for the better.

Bin jetzt 65 Jahre aber Foreigner höre ich immer noch gerne. Da schwebt man in Erinnerungen von meiner Jugend ❤eine der Weltbesten Bands.❤
Thank you for doing this on a turntable, beautiful
Lou Gramm is still so underrated, such an expressive soulful voice.
Fact!
The Best OF The Best Classic
Masterpiece! I miss the 80s😢
Over 2 weeks ill be 62 years & this song bring me back all the good times & the good friends we had & the good one's we lost along the way
The synths the vocals the choir the waveforms holy fucking perfection
that synth-soundscape: like floating on clouds
Excellent description. Beautiful song. Takes me back to the roller rink in 1981 skating with my girl.
Thank Thomas Dolby for that contribution as well as keyboards on all the other songs.
The intro is perfection.

I found in in 1973, lost her in 1977 by being stupid. Waited. Got her back in 2012. Still have her heart. True love knows no time.

How could we have grown up listening to such good musix and allow the world to become what it has? 60 yrs old and feelin responsible.
I'm 760 years old, and I've been enjoying this song for 11 minutes when I first heard about it on MTV's Top 20 countdown!
About time someone was honest with their age!😛
@@mikespearwood3914 concordo, esconder é guase impossível!!👍
So long, I've been looking too hard
I've been waiting too long
Sometimes I don't know what I will find
I only know it's a matter of time
When you love someone
When you love someone
It feels so right, so warm and true
I need to know if you feel it too
Maybe I'm wrong
Won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong?
This heart of mine has been hurt before
This time I want to be sure
I've been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you, your a love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new to make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you to come into my life
You're so good
When we make love it's understood
It's more than a touch or a word can say
Only in dreams could it be this way
When you love someone
Yeah, I really love someone
Now, I know it's right
From the moment I wake up 'til deep in the night
There's nowhere on earth that I'd rather be than holding you tenderly
I've been waiting for a girl like you to come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you, your a love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new to make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you to come into my life
I've been waiting, waiting for you, ooh
Ooh, I've been waiting
(Waiting) I've been waiting, yeah
(I've been waiting for a girl like you, I've been waiting)
Won't you come into my life?
Ah
Hum ... delícia 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕linda !!💝
I haven't been depressed in a long time. A person can only take so much, betrayed 💔 over and over 💔 I'm a good sweet person and people stomping on me, where it stops...It doesn't 😢 I Love this song and always will.
Thomas Dolby did an phenomenal job in the background playing a symphasizer and sings at the end of the song.
I did not know that.
Thomas Dolby ? Now thats weird science !
-symphasizer-
Synthesizer
@@inkoinfinity2 I like pasketti and meatballs.
I think he just did the synths they usually used Ian Lloyd Mick Jones and Mutt Lange in this session...Dolby not much a vocalist
Excelente tema, inolvidable 👌
Quien mas escuchando este 2023! 🎼🎶🎉
I am listening to this Dec 3,2023. Love this song!
One of the most soulful & beautiful love song ever !!!!
I went to their Live "Foreigner Live in Japan, 1985". At that time, I got a autograph (with a message) from one of Foreigner's staff. The message was "Waiting For A Girl Like You". I was very happy.
So, When I listen to this song, I feel like this song takes me back to the 1985.
Fabulous soft-rock ballad from Foreigner, with the incredible voice of Lou Gramm.
Tears in my eyes for this gem and the memories it brings back, we had a fab time back then!
Love this song! Lou was awesome singing this!
Você é linda e tem bom gosto!
Lou's best song
Blast from the past!
I believe I heard this on the bus to school in the early 90s. I was curious about what it was, mainly because of the synth riff, And for some reason, I was reminded of it, and needed to find it, but I didn't know what to look for. But I just heard it on TV, and the mystery was solved.
And 1981? This is an example of when 70s retro meets 80s pop/rock.
As a 14-year old, when this was originally released in 1980, I had no concept what the term "ethereal" meant. This was also right on the cusp of the New Age movement, which was yet again, something I could not grasp or define. To be clear, I am NOT lumping this song into any such category, or anything remotely of the sort. And yet, hearing this song....from the very first time....resonated with me like nothing else before ever had, and shook me to my foundation in a way that caught me completely off-guard. The atmospheric overtones of the synth parts, the textures of the sonic landscape, and Lou Gramm's deep and meaningful lyrics about that which the heart often cries for the most....this song still, even 40 years later, triggers those responses. It shakes my soul, and bathes my thoughts in a landscape of sound and color unlike anything else. I cannot put it into proper words. Only that it continues to transport me to a different place and time. Those synth parts are, even to this very day, like a musical aphrodisiac to my brain. I have always been, and ever shall be, a fan of Foreigner's entire catalog. But for me, this song is their magnum opus.
Man, do we remember that moment in time. You nailed it.
Beautiful words. It took music for granted for some reason. Now I-have a great appreciation.
Magnum Opus indeed. And one of the best love ballads ever.
These ARE proper words ...
same like you - but it send me in 1981... instead of in 1980 i was also 14 years old
Many, many fond memories of my youth. Now I am 52 years old and am just reminiscing whenever I listen to it. It has so much life and I can't get enough of listening to it.
Breaks my heart thinking of the love I lost 💔💔💔
@Melanie Mccallum music is powerful it's a form of worship in the church and has a big effect on emotions I believe it is a problem in the last few decades of cop killing gang banging hoe hating garbage they call music refuse to listen to any of that garbage 🗑️🗑️🗑️
Hermosa melodía no es de mis tiempo pero me encanta
HOY 2024 FEBRERO MES DE MI CUMPLEAÑOS....LA MEJOR MUSICA 70 ; 80.......
Not only is this one of my favorite Rock Ballad Songs... but seriously how cool is that turntable? I love it!
I found a girl like you but I lost her 17 months ago the love of my life this song tells it all. still listening at 91 years
Dusty, so very sorry for your loss. Luckily we have music like this that can keep the memories alive. God bless you, young man!
Solid effort young buck
Stay strong,,,,,younwill see her again. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
She's waiting. Safe trip. I'll be there soon too. Bless us all. God bless you Dusty.
Age is just a number Love is a feeling just in eternity! Both of your love is more than all times...now Now what would she say reading your lines..
This is the greatest song ever I am 47 years old I remember the 80s
Every genre of music has something wonderful to offer but the beauty of 80s lite rock will live forever. It just soars.
A strange but true piece of trivia about the song Waiting For A Girl Like You: the keyboards on this song were played by Bob Mayo, the legendary keyboard player on the album Frampton Comes Alive by Peter Frampton. Mayo also toured with Foreigner around this same time.
When you find love, hold on to it because love is a rare thing.
WOOOOO.. (( Tu comentario dice todo., Es algo raro ))
What if you find it and are too scare to let those kind of feelings unleash 🥺
AMEN to that
I know. The love I have now is very rare it's like no other love I have ever had before it's a love I shall hold on to very tight and never let go of it it's the best love I have ever known. It's like living in heaven on earth. I can not be any happier then I am now. This live is the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life. I shall never let go of it. It's a real good thing its love. And love is baeutiful.
Yep yep true love for sure
love this masterpiece! This song is timeless.❤❤❤
This song is so beautiful and will never get die. Its just a breath of fresh air from songs these days. I miss the good old days in the 80s when I was a teenager❤️❤️❤️😘👍
The 80's was a renosance period for the arts, music and dance...splended!❤
My mom told me back 37 years ago when she was in labor waiting for my arrival, they used to play the radio. She said coincidentally THIS SOMG PLAYED as I was making my debut!! Lol. Cooool as hell!!!!!!

I did this when stationed in Germany, up in the snowy mountains in Garnish it was beautiful, makes life worth living! Peace and love to the world.
Jesus...chills listening to this - reminds me of being a kid in NJ - when times were much simpler - when people actually gathered around and spent time together in person 😊
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Timeless
The arrangement of this song is so lush... The synths, guitar, bass and drums are perfection.

I Am 65 And Still Love Listening 2022. KENTUCKY
I’ve been waiting for mr right to sing this to me since I first heard it as a little girl. Time has slapped me back into reality. But I still absolutely love hearing the song & will take listening to Foreigner sing it any day.
The love of my life is coming back after 27 years. I will sing this to her when we set eyes upon each other again. I would love to have sung it to you had time and circumstance allowed as I feel the great warmth of your heart.
🗣️ 🎙️🎶 IVE BEEN WAITING ON A GIRL LIKE YOU!!! TO COME INTO MY LIIFFEE!!! 💌💐
I just read the message down it's nice and inspiring...I am in the same situation...am 51 years old...I love this music and am looking around and admiring some beautiful woman and waiting for God to give the chance to meet that special lady. Keep listening to this beautiful melody boys and girls... cuidense mucho ok!!!
La atmósfera que se producía en la música y las letras están llenas de alma y energía que en estas décadas te trasporta en el tiempo
This song so captured me back in the day. I knew she loved me and I loved her.She was killed before we were married. This is the song we grooved to. RIP Julie
