Haddaway (born Alexander Nestor Haddaway on January 9, 1965 in Trinidad) is a Eurodance/House musician. Born into a local family, his mother was a local nurse, and his father, a Dutch oceanographer. Haddaway's biggest hit, "What Is Love," became very popular across Europe (reaching #2 in the UK) and North America after its 1993 release. Haddaway did not have any other major hits in North America, although his debut album spawned four more European hit singles: "Life," "Mama's House", "I Miss You," and "Rock My Heart." His 1995 album included two minor hits, but his later releases went by largely unnoticed. "What Is Love" has been re-mixed and re-released dozens of times.

Waiting For A Better World Lyrics
Haddaway
What ya gonna believe in
If you can't tell right from wrong?
Some TV show is all you know
Don't ya care what's going on?
You're in touch with disaster
But you look the other way
Paralyzed by the nature
How you live every day
So you're waiting - You're waiting for a better world
You're just waiting - You're waiting for a better world
If you leave it how you found it
It will always be the same:
The sinners take the prizes
And the righteous take the blame
Better wake up your senses
Get your body on the road
There ain't no time for peace of mind
When the future might explode
But you're waiting - You're waiting for a
better world
You're just waiting - You're waiting for a
Better world
If you leave it how you found it
It will always be the same:
The sinners take the prizes
And the righteous take the blame
While you're waiting
