Boy Meets Girl: Reel Life, Expanded Edition CD
Boy Meets Girl

• Second album from celebrated songwriters George Merrill and Shannon Rubicam as Boy Meets Girl.

• Well known for their hit ‘Waiting For A Star To Fall’ and for writing two number one hits for Whitney Houston.

• Contains two bonus tracks.

• Sleeve notes by Super Deluxe Editions Paul Sinclair.

Originally released in 1988. With this selection, after years of writing and composing songs for other artists, the duo earned mainstream success in their own right. In the United States, ‘Waiting For a Star to Fall’ peaked at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song reached #9 in the UK and was also a top ten Australian hit in April 1989. It was featured in the movie Three Men and a Little Lady.

Reportedly, the song was inspired by an actual falling star that Merrill and Rubicam had seen at one of Whitney Houston’s concerts at the Greek Theatre. The duo submitted the song to Houston for consideration on her next album, but her producer at the time, Clive Davis, rejected it.
