Honeychild

Honeychild is the third solo studio album by New Zealand singer Jenny Morris, released in October 1991 by East West Records. The album went for the same style as Morris's other two albums' acoustic pop, with a hint of dance music, and was produced by Nick Launay, with some songs co-produced by Mark Forrester. The album included a cover version of the song "Tempted" by the English band Squeeze.
