99 I’ve been waiting so long …

.”99" is a song by the American rockband Toto. The song appeared on the Hydra album in 1979. As a single, it reached number 26 on the Billboard charts. In Canada, the song peaked at number 17 on the RPM singles chart. Many years later, Steve Lukather confessed that he didn't like "99" and said that it was one of his least favorite of the band's songs, which is why it was rarely performed after the Hydra Tour. The song was written as a tribute to George Lucas's film THX 1138, and the music video resembles a scene from the movie. In the video, as in the movie scene where the main character (named "THX 1138" and nicknamed "Thex") is imprisoned, the room is completely white, and all characters wear white jumpsuits. Now you know! 🤓

Oh that’s smooth…..😎😎

Toto and Ambrosia, great bands of that era.

😁

Haven't heard that in about 40 years or so !

I had a global phone, one of 4 in a 10B company, waiting for the world to end in 2000, waiting to see if the world would blow and then deciding what to possibly do afterwards… 😂 🤣 😂… Of course, I was eating a sandwich at the time… 😂 @MODexotics

My favorite Toto song

Always wondered what this song was about

See my second post to the song

I remember an old rumor that one of the band members died from ingesting poison chemicals used to treat outdoor plants back before there were warnings of that sort of thing.

....Jeff Porcaro's drumbeat here is hypnotic......😵‍💫😵‍💫....Rest in Peace😔😔
