Swing Out Sister - Waiting Game

[@oceanapacifica1902]

I will forever associate this catchy song with Tokyo. After going unemployed for seven months in the US, I was finally flown to Japan in May 1989 for the most important job interview of my life. As I arrived at Narita Airport, this was the song that I kept hearing from the chauffeur's car radio. How apt!

[@Jacques_S]

No skin, tattoos, skimpy dresses, or trash....only pure class! Today's artists can take a lesson or two from Corrine. Her wardrobe is so sophisticated and chic. Beautiful!

[@chriskirilov7030]

They never needed to use them...

[@peacesells]

Seriously people, how can this video not make you smile? Between the wonderful music and looking at Corrine's beautiful face smiling, its enough to anybody in a good mood.

[@cc_htown4129]

Who ELSE is still GONNA be JAMMING to this in 20/20 ?

[@jorvelpenus7323]

Me

[@reinaldogreen2079]

this was the first song I ever heard from them back in 1989. Corrine is such a talent. don't know she never became a bigger star-such class and beauty along with a great voice.

[@exampletime1471]

I'm still waiting for my wife to come back. She passed 2017 and I feel this song literally speaking for my heart. For you left me with emptiness. Now everyday is just the same. Yr gone but I'm still playing the waiting game. Just want to hear her call my name 1 more time. Rest in Heaven my #1 and only Brandi Snow

[@all37en]

Is it just me, or is this the happiest sad song I've ever heard? Who really cares, I LOVE IT! SOS IS JUST AWESOME!

[@stillhere0326]

It's 2015 and I STILL LOVE this Song.

[@chriskirilov7030]

Not much music to love today....

[@byroni13]

stillhere0326 its 2020 and I will always love it :)

[@YNVRKNW]

One of my favorites, I enjoy their music. Puts me in a good mood.

[@patrickguellen782]

Brilliant- Swing Out Sister is among my top 5 favorite groups

[@bionicbeat]

Why this song wasn't a bigger hit I'll never know. The sheer craft of the production is astounding.

[@shekygreene]

My goodness, Corinne is stunning. What a beauty and what a talent. Love her! And this is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite recordings.

[@ftgphoto]

She has so much class. She's simply amazingly radiant.

[@stueager2289]

Jeremy Jo very clever upbeat positive musically melodic lol

[@misstee101]

I finally found this gem after all these years!

[@danth78]

I walked into a CVS the other night for the sole purpose of nostalgia. I pretended it was an old Thrifty's or Payless Drugs store. I walked down the toy aisle remembering the first 80s GI Joe action figure I bought as a child. And then this song came on. Made my night. I felt like the universe was smiling on me.

[@Mysweetings]

You described it perfectly like you're in a video yourself. Nice imagery, thanx!

[@torquemonster290]

I thought I was the only one doing this!!! Eeeerie....

[@Lunatic4Bizcas]

I've been in the same sort of situation before myself. I know where you're coming from. The 80's was such a token period in time. Ideal at least in my mind and the recesses of my memory.

[@golfer-gs1gj]

Again....Andy you're one of the luckiest men in the world. Don't ever take for granted what you have.

[@JSG1951]

Andy & Corrine will always be my favorite contemporary group.Pure class in everything they do!!!

[@Flap999]

Great writing by both Andy & Corrine. I'm an old guy here in America and have been a fan since Breakout. And you are correct...sadly so many of my fellow citizens are so enamored of the dime a dozen pop stars de jour. They get better with every year that passes.

[@SuperOrganmaster]

Corrine has an amazing voice! I love this song - wonderful!

[@LydgiaOfHarlem]

One of my favorite duos from the 80's. Corinne was simply DOPE!

[@happymike44]

This group is from the late 80's early 90's. I love to lisen to them whenever I can. I love how she sings and her hip and cool way of dressing. I was so glad to see her come back to all of us her adoring fans. So all I have to say is Swing out Sister still rocks all these years later.

[@albertmusco]

I have a number Swing Out Sister tunes on my old iPod . The upbeat music to get me through the drudgery of household chores ! Further to the comments , Swing Out Sister is beyond being underrated . They are fabulous in both their audio and visual presentations of their songs . Needless to say , thank goodness for modern technology and You Tube , I can only dream of recapturing the past, especially in my case the 1960's .

[@Aerobic777]

Love this song and the mood it brings!!!!!!!

[@rockford016]

the look, the style & most specially the VOICE! simply awesome!

[@ThatBearHasMoxie]

Swing Out Sister will always remain one of the most stylish groups in the history of music. Just beyond fabulous almost 20 years later. I bought this album in 1988 and I never get sick of hearing this song 20 years later.

[@TheMurphst]

My favorite Swing Out Sister song! Corrine has the most incredible voice and she's incredibly beautiful!! She could turn a gay man straight....

[@timklein3962]

Thank You empressme; this song is SOOOOO cool and chic; the 80s was the last decade I ever liked music wise anyway !!

[@KayJay7000]

Great song and SOS look so Euro-chic in this video!

[@ojocritico6105]

Few things on this world are PERFECT. This song and video are one of them. And the Corine smile...

[@fredgonn]

Corrine is fantastic! Great singer, stylish and a wonderful smile, giving you a happy feeling. And great music of course, thank you Andy! And Corrine of course... I think S.O.S. is a rather underrated group...

[@lexusck]

What a classic beauty!!! She is simply the best. Love her look and her voice!!! Ahhhhh loved this whole album. I've been thru 2 or 3 cassettes in the 80's and now I'm on my 2nd CD...I keep wearing them out!!!

[@nowgaku]

I never forget this song. I hold it after I pass away.

[@Livelife95ify]

I love this song I was living in Germany at the age of 12 years old when I first heard it and I thought it was such an amazing song. now I'm looking at this video and paying attention to the singer and never discovered how beautiful she is. She could have been a model if she had never been a singer.

[@chriskirilov7030]

It happens sometimes....Good to discovery !

[@phoenixmoon3]

i absolutely love Corieen's voice. I could just keep it on alllll day. Brilliant. It makes me remember being a kid..

[@treehugger19]

Her voice and music completely grab my attention and I want to listen to more.

[@tubehead357]

This is what its all about! Thank you for the post! I've been a big fan of Swing Out Sister since they started. I've been glued to the computer since coming across these videos, and I've NEVER seen most of them! I'm in Heaven!

[@vichy766]

Incredibly nostalgic sounding voice feels like I had heard SOS decades before in the early 60's. Smooth flowing inimitable jazz sounds worthy of greater airplay. Got hooked on them way back from Am I the Same Girl. I love the freespirited beat and tempo all moving as one sound, excellent!

[@Aramanth]

Love this song!! Their escapade through Paris is perfect for the song!! Thanks for posting!

[@shieldsff]

After all these years listening, I am just now getting a real aprreciation for the extent of Andy's musicality - this fellow has just a great creative ear for melody, rythms and progression. What a gifted, young man he is, indeed !

[@picksplace]

I must say this is one of the best songs Corrine and Sing Out Sister have created-so real-so defined- so rich in feelings and emotions..Great job guys..

[@plutofreak]

Recently saw Swing out Sister in Concert and they were great! Corrine is so tall and Beautiful!

[@staffsyeoman]

Instant feelgood music. Superb arrangement, Corrine's superlative voice.. And I love the way they keep what others consider 'outtakes' in the video. Makes them spontaneous, even joyful!

[@KraussNik]

I love this song!!!

[@ennui2000]

The closeups in this one show Corinne's beauty in all its glory. That hair, those eyes and lips, woweee! How can one girl be so beautiful? It's a great song and video. Beautifully modulated and staged. Corinne is so vivacious and lovely. She looks like she's really having fun with it. Her smile is just dazzling.

[@benitoverap]

Thanks for uploading. SOS was my favoirute groups of the 80s and I still have the original LP records at home

[@Flap999]

Corinne is so gorgeous. Heard today they have hit 10 album releases and hit HUGE in Japan. Very happy they are still touring, there's no substitute for great talent. Just great music without all the hype. Thanks for posting.

[@dynamiz77]

Very talented group. She has such a awesome voice; sultry, passionate, charismatic...just marvelous.

[@SuperOrganmaster]

This is a great song and great video. Swing Out Sister's backing band and vocalists are brilliant. This coupled with the amazing voice of Corinne make the superb and singular sound that is instantly recognizable.

[@MichaelMike-et4ij]

Perfection personified!!!

[@Wiser72]

My second favorite SOS song. My first is 'Forever Blue."

[@jerikbanzam]

haah same here... but breakout is my second..

[@timmmahhhh]

Agreed - I know of them only because of an internet search I did in 2004 wondering what ever happened to them. And was pleasantly surprised to see they were not only still active but still outstanding. The smooth jazz stations in the US used to play them regularly, their first two albums, but not much else. I wonder sometimes if "Get In Touch With Yourself" did them great in the pop world but not so much in the jazz world. Myself I love that album as well as their jazzier stuff.

[@SuperSangabriel]

Oh God! I love this voice so much! and the songs she sings are great!

[@WhataShameAboutMe]

The opening video shot of her face always gives me shivers. Beautiful Corinne.

[@peacesells]

Corinne has such a beautiful smile and personality, and just seeing her dancing around always puts me in a good mood. I wish there were more women in the world like her.

[@dhen424]

I've spent too much time Waiting for you in vain I can't hear your voice Although I call your name I can't go on but I still hang on just the same I've spent endless nights Crying you name out loud But still remain Alone in an empty crowd As time goes on I realize you'll never change I say a prayer I count the hours I hear a voice but it's not yours I count the score I can't go on playing the waiting game If you should ever change your mind I'll be there just call my name Until then I'll be playing the waiting game I've waited too long Wishing my life away Convincing myself Tomorrow you'd change your ways I can't go on but I still hang on just the same I say a prayer I count the hours I hear a voice but it's not yours I count the score I can't go on playing the waiting game All you left me with emptiness Now everyday seems the same You've gone but I'm still playing the waiting game If you should ever change your mind I'll be there just call my name Until then I'll be playing the waiting game I've waited too long for you to change your ways Playing the waiting game All you left me with emptiness Now everyday seems the same You've gone but I'm still playing the waiting game If you should ever change your mind I'll be there just call my name Until then I'll be playing the waiting game

[@hataikarnpratoomraj3440]

Thank you

[@chriskirilov7030]

The difference between wishes and the reality....Even Santa makes mistakes ...sometimes ! Keep the nice flame inside !

[@miguelangelazocarjimenez8441]

excelent song with a extreme beautyful Corine

[@mikemccready1127]

Damn, these guys made some damn good music! She is the center of a well orchestrated and wonderfully intricate masterpiece!! Thanks so much for posting this gem.

[@jerryj920]

Very catchy tune; fun. That's a singer right there. Period

[@TheElectricFetus]

corinne has some of the CUTEST expressions ever !!

[@tidmouthshed]

God how brilliant were these guys. 40 years plus now but still love Corinne to bits. When are they touring in the UK!

[@kirk1701]

It's such a happy song! I love it!

[@BlakeGildaphish76]

wow, they were just perfect. all of their music is so fresh and feel-good.

[@P220SAM]

Very cute in an 80's kind of way. Very talented and beautiful voice. I wish they would release some new music.

[@qdog568]

Saw them there in '08. This show should be just as great! Enjoy!

[@kermitefrog64]

Great song! Great jazzy piece. Corinne and Basia are my most favorite female jazz artists.

[@falldownhard]

All hail my #2 artist of all time, after the Carpenters--this is the record that put them over the top for me. Just utter brilliance...

[@justus821]

this is a great song...the song why i have placed in my heart swing out sister..thanks for uploading

[@melvinbennett444]

She is the epitome of style. Great video, of a song that had to be hard to sing.

[@readmelancholystrumpetmaster]

I could not possibly express into words how much love I have for her... still.

[@DralionProductions]

I keep getting the crazy urge to set the pics I took of my trip to Paris back in '93 to this song. . .

[@face2facechick]

They always have great videos. Really makes you feel like you're there with them...wherever they are. To think about it this video actually reminds me of the movie Sabrina. I guess that's what its based on. Either way it doesn't matter. I think SOS is my #1 favorite group. Can't wait til they go on tour again. I won't be missing that.

[@carloscoronaa]

They play this song in my dentist office but I don't give a fuck I'll still jam this song all day :p

[@jcbermu]

They are great and this video is one of their best creations.

[@catlovermarty]

My favorite SOS song! This is the first time I've seen the video of it. Makes the song even better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TheNouveauxdecadence]

Absolutely beautiful. REAL MUSIC!

[@polvochunk]

コーリンすげえかわいい

[@IraBen]

well, sos is one of my most admired pop jazz artist in the 80's - they got good combination of soul, r&b music which is timeless.

[@redwoodtodd]

Beautiful voice! Beautiful music! Beautiful woman!

[@melissacassell]

I miss their music

[@eamonnbrereton1525]

+Melissa Cassell Theyre working on new material, i think they will sell their new music on their facebook page

[@melissacassell]

+Eamonn Brereton I'm so happy now. Thank you so much for letting me know. I appreciate it. I love this group. I have every CD they made. :-)

[@eamonnbrereton1525]

+Melissa Cassell You are most welcome Melissa :-)

[@HarlinNeal]

This song reminds me of my youth back in the 80's. Let's face it...80's music is the BEST!!!!

[@EphemeralProductions]

Brings back memories of 1989. Not all good ones either! This is one of several songs that comforted me in the tough times I was going through.

[@DonJuanMarco1994]

I love 80s music. At least music then was decent, and you understand the meaning of the lyrics unlike most music today

[@tasyo10]

I watched her concert in Manila. I love the way she dance,cute.One of the best concert.

[@christianbrunois4149]

super j 'adore cette chanteuse merci

[@MichaelMike-et4ij]

Corinne's voice is beyond Angelic which makes her a demigoddess here on Earth!!!!

[@sujitra007]

This song is my favourite!

[@dropzone4321]

It sure is a gem👍🏽🇺🇸

[@scottcody7850]

Great song!

[@smurfblood]

If only real life was as fun as a Swing Out Sister video. If only I could master those hand gestures.

[@agapimu88]

look at those eyes.... it will melt your heart... so love Corinne!

[@headley62]

Great song and video! I love the shot at the end where she is running toward the camera in black & white wearing the white trench coat.

[@thewb3]

Gives me a rush every time I hear it :)

[@PeterStawicki]

Absolutely

[@tompatriot12]

This band is still in existence and they are ALIVE AND WELL. Too bad Americans don't truly appreciate her fine musical style. They are HUGE in Japan, I understand. The Waiting Game is excellent, but then ALL their music is. Their music has substance and STYLE! Corrine and Andy are priceless!!!

[@kay19833]

rock on,80 and 90's rocks! best time of my life.

[@paris4la]

a great song with with shots of paris in the background , you can't go wrong a real pop group/ jazzy combo with talent, no bubble gum stuff here.. merci pour le video

[@josearenas1434]

Que buen tema. Buena musica. Amo este grupo. I like, i love this song.

[@leonardjames1048]

Well, I just bought it from Amazon for ITunes, so I will be hearing it a lot !

[@claudiocalogero4752]

haa corinne you pure sharm and elegance ,voice unique, for ever blue, for ever in my soul!!!!

[@CharlesNigro]

Don't forget that she's a versatile singer and songwriter. I understand that she's a beautiful woman, but let's not forget that she's also a multi-talented performer.

[@happymike44]

Corinne has that elegance that is missing from so many modern female singers. S.O.S.was always dressed smart,elegant and never looked liked they slept in their clothes. With that and lyrics and the music made them simply smashing. Glad to see that Corine was out performing again after all these years.
