Red Mosquito

Seeing this song live last night reminded me of what a fun little diddy this is.

Needs more Jeff

We just need a Jeff clone then... still needs more Jeff!!!

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

Or... maybe you are 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.

exactly.

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

Scratch that, they've played this at 4 shows I was at.

but it's one of those songs that didnt get played for decades

very cool experience seeing it in newfoundland and remembering my TDK casette boots

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 can confirm this.

It's my The Real Me. They hardly ever play it but when they do I'm there.

Pete, you better not make an appearance at one of my shows ever again!

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!
