"Waiting For The Worm To Turn" by Bourgeois Tagg

With their infectious beats and insightful lyrics, Bourgeois Tagg was poised to hit it big in the late 80s. Their debut album managed to get the single "Mutual Surrender" to #62 on the Billboard Top 100 in 1986, starting a solid fan base for the group.

The legendary pop star and songwriter Todd Rundgren produced their sophomore effort, "Yoyo". The first single, "I Don't Mind At All", turned out to be their biggest hit, just barely breaking into the to 40 to land at #38 in 1987. I really thought the next single, the shimmering "Waiting For The Worm To Turn", was going to push the band into superstardom, but the song surprisingly failed to chart.
