#Listening to Break In The Weather, a single by Jenny Morris. It was the big single from her 1991 album Honeychild, which I remember owning on tape cassette when I was still a child myself;

On paper this is a fairly by-the-numbers pop song. But Jenny's delivery is bang on, the backing band is super funky (great live too), and the music video is oddly compelling.

(1/2)

‘Baby’ is the #FortnightFridayMusic word tonight and from thousands of possibilities I’ve chosen a Jenny Morris song “Little Little” that doesn’t even mention the word. Written during her pregnancy with son Hugh it describes her love for the baby in her womb

Artist: Jenny Morris
Album: Shiver
Released: 1989

I first saw Jenny in a Kiwi band the Wide Mouthed Frogs back in 1979 when they first came on the scene (https://audioculture.co.nz/profile/wide-mouthed-frogs). They played at the local Ben Burn Park in Karori and that was the start of my Jenny Morris crush. Last saw her at Hillary’s Perth in the mid 90’s, but unfortunately her voice was affected by spasmodic dysphonia that saw the end to her singing career post 2005
