"Waiting All Night" is a song by English drum and bass band Rudimental. It features the vocals from English singer Ella Eyre. The song was released in the United Kingdom on 14 April 2013 as the fourth single from their debut studio album, Home (2013). The song reached number one in the UK Singles Chart and has also charted in Australia and Belgium. The group, along with Eyre, performed a live version of the song for BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge, which features on the Live Lounge 2013 compilation album.
A mashup of the song with Bastille's "Pompeii" was performed live by Rudimental, Eyre and Bastille at the 2014 BRIT Awards. The mashup entered the UK Singles Chart at number 21.
Lewis Corner of Digital Spy 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. .
