Destiny Rules DVD

[DavidMn]

Hey, I need help with something here. And I'm calling on fellow ledgies that are more intelligent in this matter than myself. On the DVD of the making of SYW, for a few seconds, lindsey is singing a line from this song, I'm not sure of the name, maybe I am Waiting? wh knows anything about this, and am I right with the title?

You have the right title... and it's an old Rolling Stones song, from their 1966 album, 'Aftermath.'

The Maccers have always been big Stones fans (Stevie once said that there were many times when they sat up in the studio all night listening to the Stones), and it seems that when 'SYW' was still meant to be a double-album, they intended to include this song as a tribute to the band.

When it was cut down to a single album, I assume they decided to discard "I Am Waiting" to keep an even balance between Lindsey's and Stevie's self-penned compositions (another discarded tune was that cover of "Love Minus Zero," of course).

How I wish they would have put the cover of "I Am Waiting" on that extra CD! Since that didn't happen, I wish there was a boot of this floating around. I love how it sounded on that part in the Destiny Rules DVD; I bet the whole thing kicks butt.
