Honey Lingers is the second album from alternative rock band Voice of the Beehive. Released in 1991 on London Records, the album earned positive reviews from music critics and was a success on U.S. college radio stations. The album peaked at #17 in the UK upon its debut on 24 August 1991, and #68 in Australia in July 1992.
The first single, "Monsters and Angels", became the band's first entry on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #74. It also was the band's second top-twenty single in the UK Singles Chart, peaking at #17. "Monsters and Angels" peaked at #72 on the Australian ARIA singles chart, and was their sole top-ten single on the U.S. Modern Rock Tracks chart, peaking at number eight.
The title of the album is a play on the words of the sexual act of cunnilingus. The album includes a cover version of The Partridge Family's "I Think I Love You", which became their biggest hit in Australia, peaking at #12.
