Waiting For a Star to Fall is a song released by the pop duo Boy Meets Girl in 1988. It was a worldwide hit and became the duo's signature song.
The song was inspired by an actual falling star that Shannon Rubicam had seen at one of Whitney Houston's concerts at the Greek Theatre. Initially the duo did not consider to record it, and instead submitted the song to Clive Davis for consideration on Houston's next album, but he rejected it, alleging that it did not suit her. The song was then offered and recorded by Belinda Carlisle for her 1987 release, Heaven On Earth, at the insistence of her label. But Carlisle disliked the song and she ultimately refused to include it on the album, though it has circulated in her trading circles for years on a disc of that album's outtakes.
The videoclip, directed by Australian director Claudia Castle, features scenes of the duo singing the song on a beach, and scenes of the duo singing inside a house with Merrill also playing the piano. Also featured are scenes of a group of children playing with bubbles. One of those children is Merrill and Rubicam's daughter.
