I'm Still Waiting (Diana Ross song) I'm Still Waiting (Diana Ross song) "I'm Still Waiting" is a popular song, written and produced by Deke Richards and recorded by Diana Ross; it first appeared on Ross's 1970 album "Everything Is Everything". The song reached No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart in August 1971. It also reached number one in Ireland. "I'm Still Waiting" continued the vein of sophisticated soul as heard on Ross's breakthrough solo hit "Ain't No Mountain High Enough". However, it was only a modest success in the US, reaching #63 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 singles chart, and #40 on the R&B chart.
Diana Ross actually named her "Diane", but, a clerical error resulted in her name being recorded as "Diana" on her birth certificate. She was listed as "Diane" during the first Supremes records, and she introduced herself as "Diane" until early in the group's heyday. Her friends and family still call her "Diane". Ross's grandfather John E. Ross, a native of Gloucester County, Virginia, was born to Washington Ross and Virginia Baytop. Virginia Baytop's mother Francis "Frankey" Baytop was a former slave who had become a midwife after the Civil War. Ross and her family originally lived on Belmont Road in the North
