"Wishing (If I Had a Photograph of You)" is a 1982 song by A Flock of Seagulls, the opening song and only hit single from their second album Listen.
The song exemplifies "synth-pop's spaced-out loneliness" and yearning for imagined absent lovers, and is noted for its Wall of Sound-styled layer of synthesizer padding - a "multi-layered, hypnotic song".
"Wishing" performed strongly in Great Britain and reached the Top 10.
In the US it reached the top 30 on the U.S. Billboard charts in summer 1983.
In South Africa, it was enormously popular, reaching the no. 8 position.
