this song blows. the only appeal it has is as a rarity, which is retarded.

I don't think of it as a serious song. Just a fun side song. I don't think it's a bad song though.

It's a fun little song to get. But I've got it 3 times now. I'm ok with never getting it again.

it was funny that we texted Rick to let him know that Jeff had a guitar and was sitting next to Ed, he knew the song already, i guess ive never watched a video of it before. it was a nice surprise

When I saw Jeff with the guitar I turned to Ruddo and told him it was Bee Girl.

I'm always happy to hear this song--it's one of the few early PJ tunes that manages to be both heartfelt and funny, and in that regard its grasp exceeds its reach. To me the section that makes this song is:

Anxious is the present
Unwrap your gifts, take your time
All the things you've imagined
Needn't be stuck in your mind

Denver '06 and Salt Lake City '09 are both pretty solid versions.

So is she saying she doesn't want to hear Bee Girl again? Because if she did, she should want you at all her shows!
