Wishing Well

WISHING WELL
 
 
"Wishing Well"  is a song by Terence Trent D'Arby.  The second single from the 1987 album Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent D'Arby, the song reached number one on both the Soul Singles Chart and the Billboard Hot 100 on May 7, 1988.  "Wishing Well" was certified "Gold", indicating sales of 500,000, by the Recording Industry Association of America in October 1991.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 
Terence Trent d’Arby, Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent d’Arby – I remember there being a huge amount of hype associated with this album; the title alone promises more than almost anyone would be able to deliver.  There were two hit singles from the album in the US called “Wishing Well” and “Sign Your Name”, both excellent (so were the music videos for these songs); and US album sales hit two million.   Another song from the album, “If You Let Me Stay” was a major Top 10 hit in the UK that stayed in the top half of the charts for over a year.
