• This was covered by Neon Jungle on their Welcome to the Jungle album, which was released a month before Banks' own Goddess set. The American singer accused the British girl group of failing to get her permission to cover the tune. "People keep asking why I let Neon Jungle put my song 'Waiting Game' on their album when my album has yet to come out," she wrote on her Facebook page. "The answer is I was never asked. I was as shocked as you to see this song made up of my own heartbeats on their album."
  
  "A song that was born from my real life, my real heartache, my real fingertips when I was at one of the most confusing times in my life," Banks added. "How strange it is to see it used on someone else's album before it even comes out on mine. It makes me feel very uncomfortable."
  
  "I am a new artist and new to this business and I am told it is legal. But it feels really icky. I guess I can only hope 'Waiting Game' means as much to Neon Jungle as it did to me when I wrote it."
• Banks performed this song along with "Beggin' For Thread" when she made her TV debut on the August 7, 2014 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live.
• The song was used to soundtrack the scene in Divergent when Tris goes to visit her brother Caleb at Erudite headquarters.
• This backed a racy Victoria's Secret lingerie commercial as a model walks down a Parisian street.
