Single name: Honey
Album name: Butterfly
Published: Columbia 1997

Description:
Single Honey was released on August 26 as the first from the Butterfly album, featuring Mariah's changed style. Some people were shocked, but still it went straight to the top of the charts... "Honey" was the third single which entered at the top position and her twelfth (!) #1 hits.

Mariah about "Honey": Puff and I wanted to work together, making the first single. We were doing all sorts of things, so I already had a few songs I liked, but it wasn't quite exactly wat I was looking for. The original idea for "Honey" is based on the song "Body rock" by Treacherous Three. He let me hear it on the phone, and my reaction was: "This is it!". So I wrote "Honey" referring to that song, and we worked together at Puffy's house.
