Touched by Jesus is the third studio album by All About Eve. It was the first album to feature Church guitarist Marty Willson-Piper on guitars. Despite this, the album fell short of the commercial achievements of both the first album and Scarlet and Other Stories only reaching No. 17 in the UK charts. Of the three singles released only "Farewell Mr Sorrow" charted - and that only reached No. 36.

Marty Willson-Piper remained a full-time member of The Church during both his periods with All About Eve and given that one band is based in the UK and the other in Australia this was quite an achievement.

"Are You Lonely" and "Wishing the Hours Away" both featured guest-guitarist Dave Gilmour from Pink Floyd.

"Farewell Mr Sorrow" and "Strange Way" were both aimed at former guitarist Tim Bricheno who left the band in 1990 following a break-up of his relationship with singer Julianne Regan.

Some versions of the single release of "Farewell Mr Sorrow" included a cover "Silver Song" by Mellow Candle as a B-side.

The perceived failure of this album would lead to an acrimonious break-up between the band and their record company, causing them to sign to MCA for their next album, Ultraviolet.
