Just watching the movie "Singles" with Matt Dillon, Campbell Scott...
and found a cool song. Could be called All My Life, or Waiting for
Somebody

"Ah ah ah.....All my life, waiting for somebody, to take my hand"
Thats about all I know. Any ideas? Actually the whole movie had a cool
soundtrack. What is it like as a whole?

Paul Westerberg was the lead singer of The Replacements. He did a
couple of songs for the soundtrack of Singles. I always think his song
"Dyslexic Heart" is more of the "theme" song, but that might be only
because it had a video and was actually released at the time.

If you like Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains, you would
probably like the soundtrack. I personally love the Chris Cornell (lead
singer for Soundgarden) solo track "Seasons" and also The Lovemongers'
version of Zep's Battle of Evermore.

You could probably find it used somewhere fairly cheap.

Paul Westerberg
Waiting For Somebody
from "Singles" soundtrack

All my life, waiting for somebody
Ah-ha-ha, come and take my hand
All my life, waiting for somebody
Ah-ha-ha, whoa, yeah

Down so long, doesn't really matter
This downtown home, been kicked and I've been spurred
You comin' along? It does't really matter
I'll go it alone--doesn't even hurt

I'm waitin' for the day
Waitin' for the day that you come my way...

I drove down deep, made a big decision
I'm going to sleep--I'm going there alone
I know damn well I'm tired of all this cryin'
On my feet as far as I can tell

Somebody... somebody... somebody... somebody... etc.
