"Kiss Me, Honey Honey, Kiss Me" is a popular song written by Michael Julien and Al Timothy. It was first recorded by Shirley Bassey and released as a single in 1958 to a big commercial success (#3 in the UK). The song was then included on Bassey's 1959 album The Bewitching Miss Bassey and would become one of her most recognisable tunes. It has since been covered by numerous artists.
Bassey re-recorded the song on her 1966 album I've Got a Song for You and on 1984's I Am What I Am. It was also remixed for the 2007 album Get the Party Started. Bassey has stated that, alongside "Big Spender", "Kiss Me, Honey Honey, Kiss Me" is a favourite among her own songs.
