United Kingdom Best Before Records

Waited Up 'til It Was Light is the debut album by British band Johnny Foreigner and was released on UK independent label Best Before Records on June 2, 2008. The album was licensed to Nettwerk by Best Before and released through online retailers in North America July 22, 2008, and in stores September 23, 2008. It was recorded in Hoboken, New Jersey with producer Machine, whose previous credits include work with notable contemporary hard rock acts including Lamb Of God, Clutch and the progressive rock group King Crimson. The artwork was designed by Lewes Herriot and showed several Birmingham landmarks, with the UK release having interchangeable covers. The title is a reference to the Casiotone for the Painfully Alone song 'Don't They Have Payphones Wherever You Were Last Night'.

A track-by-track explanation of the album from Alexei Berrow, guitarist and singer of the band, can be found here.

All tracks written by Johnny Foreigner.

The North American release contains a re-recording of Arcs Across the City track "Champagne Girls I Have Known" between "Lea Room" and "Our Bipolar Friends."
