"Waiting for That Day" was the second single George Michael pulled from Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1, his second solo album, and Epic had it in British shops in October 1990, hard on the heels of "Praying for Time". The reviews were warm.
The sales were cooler. Coming after a run of bigger hits, it broke his streak on both sides of the Atlantic, becoming the first of his singles to finish outside the UK Top 20, stalling at number 23, and the first to fall short of the American Top 10, peaking at 27 on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 1991. "Mother's Pride" came next.
