"Waiting" is the first single of British progressive rock band Porcupine Tree, released in May 1996. It came in two formats: a regular CD and a 12" vinyl. At the time, the single was intended to promote the forthcoming album Signify.

Waiting is considered the first Porcupine Tree's single for its length, since Voyage 34 and Voyage 34: Remixes are singles of around 30 and 40 minutes respectively that would fit better in the category of EP's.

The song entered all UK indie charts and the UK National chart attracting airplay all over Europe.

Porcupine Tree contributed an edit of "Waiting (Phase Two)" to the film music for the Paul Spurrier's movie Underground, whereas the credits erroneously listed "Waiting (Phase One)".
