When You Were Mine is the sixth studio album by English singer and musician John Waite, released by Mercury/Pure in 1997. [1]
Speaking to Songwriting Magazine in 2013, Waite said of the album: "When You Were Mine was the best album I ever did. I kind of went country in an English way, but it's a beautiful record." [2] He told Classic Rock Revisited that year: "When You Were Mine has strong acoustic values, and tells stories. It was completely different to what I had done before." [3]

AllMusic | [1] |
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic considered the album to "tone down [Waite's] hard rock influences in an attempt to regain the adult contemporary radio audience he once had". He concluded: "Although the results aren't entirely successful, there's enough well-crafted mainstream pop here to satisfy longtime fans." [1]
