ABOUT THE RECORD Breakfast in America featured four U.S. Billboard Hot 100 singles: The Logical Song (No. 6), Goodbye Stranger (No. 15), Breakfast in America (No. 62), and Take the Long Way Home (No. 10). Breakfast in America won two Grammy Awards in 1980, and holds an RIAA certification of quadruple platinum. In France, the album is the biggest-selling English language album of all time, and the third biggest seller overall. The album's front cover resembles an overlook of New York City through an aeroplane window. It was designed by Mike Doud and depicted Kate Murtagh, dressed as a waitress named "Libby" from a diner, as a Statue of Liberty figure holding up a glass of orange juice on a small plate in one hand (in place of the torch on the Statue), and a foldable restaurant menu in the other hand, on which "Breakfast In America" is written. The background featured a city made from a cornflake box, ashtray, cutlery (for the wharfs), eggboxes, vinegar, ketchup and mustard bottles, all spraypainted white. The twin World Trade Center towers appear as two stacks of boxes and the plate of breakfast represents Battery Park, the departure point for the Staten Island Ferry. The back cover photo, depicting the band members having breakfast while reading their respective hometown newspapers, was taken at a diner called Bert's Mad House.
