I just searched 48 pages on Yahoo & searched TH-cam as had this song in my head for 2 days. All I got was Elvis Costello until I typed in punk version. Minute I saw the name Wreckless Eric it clicked :) Great song!
one of my first "punk" crushes -- at about 18 -- have an album still of "Stiff Records" - Elvis costello, Nick Lowe (my VERY favorite) -- stuff like "the 24-hour club" - which apparently meant that anyone on the tour had to be available to drink and party at any time any day... good times!
respect this song is a great song by a great man loved since i was 15 and im old man now but when i here this i feel young again great memories thanks for uploading thank dad too

This should have been a big hit all over the whole wide world.
Very good 🇬🇧
Saw him live in 1978, great concert

Gotta love youtube for spreading great music like this!
Always loved this song, even more since I recently found out it was supposedly written about the actress Veronica Lake.
Great! This takes me back... Thanks- you and Dad
My dad was a big fan of Wreckless Eric
Bought this album on ebay after hearing 'waiting hoping'....great oldie...
timeless - just great
So great
Beautiful song. Beautiful Artist.
thankyou so much for remind me of one of my favourite song
There's been no messages for me from a girl by the name of Veronica
No messages for me, but I, I really love her
I wanna hold her but I can't, 'cause I'm a soldier
And I'm waiting for a message from a girl by the name of Veronica
'Cause I'm going to this war, I'm gonna fight for my Veronica
She's my angel, and I wanna touch her
But in the meantime, I'll just kiss her picture
'Cause there's no messages of hope Veronica could ever send to me
And I don't need a note to know she can be friends with me
I'm a soldier, bang bang, I really wanna hold her
I'm a soldier, bang bang, I really wanna hold her
But I'm waiting for a message from a girl by the name of Veronica
'Cause I'm going to this war, I'm gonna fight for my Veronica
I'm just waiting for a message from a girl by the name of Veronica
I'm just waiting for a message from a girl by the name of Veronica

brilliant
I bought his first album shortly after it was released but dismissed it as being 'light weight'. Thankfully I'm not that stupid now!
Lol you were a purist
awesome song ross
Me gusto mucho el video y me gusta Veronica de Nasu.
And Alexa doesn't recognize it either, tks for uploading it
I'm a soldier Bang Bang
Great song, but not written by Elvis Costello and Paul McCartney- that's a different "Veronica". Thanks for uploading though!
Thanks
This isn't the Costello/McCartney song, is it?
Same question! I feel like any meeting between these men before 1990 would have led to Costello being taken away by McCartney's security.
It is not the same.
could anyone work out the chords to this? i know it sounds easy, but i'm crap at doing things lke this :)
my girlfriends name is Veronica♥
