Reception

Critical reception

Lewis Corner of Digital Spy blog gave the song a positive review stating:

"I've been waiting all night for you to tell me what you want," singer Ella Eyre's warm and tender vocal declares over steadily rising drum-step and synthesised organ, before the chorus bursts open with soul-flying brass. It may echo much of their previous hits - if not with a slightly darker edge - but nevertheless their sound is one they can officially claim to dominate. .[5]

At the 2014 BRIT Awards, the song won the British Single of the Year award.

Usage in media

"Waiting All Night" was featured in the promo of MTV Latin America Music in on.

An instrumental version of the song is used in BBC's Match of the Day 2 as background music to Goal of the Month.
