Fun Boy Three – Waiting (Vinyl)
Waiting, produced by David Byrne, follows a somber avenue, using assorted jazzy styles in minor keys to express cynicism in “The More I See (the Less I Believe),” tell a harrowing tale of molestation on “Well Fancy That!” and explode the mythical side of young romance on “The Tunnel of Love.”
The centerpiece of the album, however, is “Our Lips Are Sealed” — the Go-Go’s hit written by Hall and Jane Wiedlin — given a dramatically different reading here, slowed to dirge speed and laden with heavy atmosphere and a resigned feel, yet somehow played with a preternatural lightness. A remarkable track on a phenomenally powerful album.

Murder She Said 1:57
The More I See (The Less I Believe) 3:38

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
