This page is for the 180 song, for more titles see Waiting.

Waiting is a short jingle that plays in early releases when you're waiting for the computer AI opponent to shoot their three darts. The song consists of the first 8 seconds of the Title song, ending differently on every platform. The composer is still being speculated.

The song has not been arranged for World Darts (AMI), World Darts (DOS) and 180 (ZXS).
