What's Inside: Songs from Waitress is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles, released on November 6, 2015, through Epic Records.[1] The lead single from the album, "She Used to Be Mine", was released digitally on September 25, 2015.[2] It features songs from the musical Waitress, for which Bareilles wrote the music and lyrics.
In June 2013, it was reported that Bareilles was to score Waitress, a musical adaptation of the 2007 film of the same name.[3] The musical opened on August 20, 2015, at the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge, Massachusetts.[4][5] The production was directed by Diane Paulus and starred Jessie Mueller in the leading role.[6] Bareilles debuted one song from the musical called "She Used to be Mine" during some shows on her Little Black Dress Tour.[7] The show closed on September 27, 2015, and after the successful run at A.R.T., it moved to the Brooks Atkinson Theatre on Broadway in April 2016. Previews began in March 2016 with Mueller retaining the lead.[1] Bareilles took over the lead from Mueller for a 10-week limited run, which began on March 31, 2017, and returned from January 16 to March 11, 2018, with an overlap with Jason Mraz.[8][9]
While writing the musical, Bareilles "fell more deeply in love with the writing of the musical Waitress than I had ever imagined."[1] Her decision to record an album of the songs came because it "proved impossible for me to imagine handing over the songs to the show before selfishly finding a way to sing them myself."[1] She confirmed during a Google Hangout Q & A session in June 2015 that the musical's songs would be reworked "to sound like Sara Bareilles songs."
On June 27, 2015, Bareilles and Nadia DiGiallonardo performed "She Used to Be Mine" with Rich Dworsky and The Berkshire Boys on A Prairie Home Companion.[12] The album's title was revealed in September 2015.[1]
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic rated the album four out of five stars and writes that the songs are "lively, clever, and bold, and further evidence of Bareilles' versatility, elegance, and wit."[13] Additionally, The Boston Globe's Sarah Rodman calls it "a great pop album."[14]
