I can't remember the name of the song or who sings it...... I can't even really remember how it goes. I know I'm not giving ya'll much to work with!! =) But I remember the video had this little fat girl that ran around in a Bumble Bee suit and she wore big glasses and they were running through a field of flowers or something like that. MAN!! This is really irritating me b/c I can't remember what the name of the song was. It came out sometime around '95. Hope ya'll can help me!

I just want some one to say to me
I'll always be there when you wake
Ya know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made
^[some of my favorite lyrics]
definitely blind melon's no rain.
"The video for the song featuring Heather DeLoach as the "Bee Girl" is one of MTV's most popular music videos.
Most people think that the song's lyrics were written by Blind Melon's lead singer Shannon Hoon who committed suicide on October 21, 1995. In fact, the band's bass player, Brad Smith wrote the lyrics to No Rain. Smith was interviewed in the November 1993 issue of Details magazine. In the interview Smith admitted that the song was about one of his former girlfriends. According to Smith:
She had a hard time with depression. I was telling myself that I was writing it about her: how f****d up she could be, but how intelligent she was and why she was so unhappy and how much she needed me to be happy. And I realized I was writing it about myself at the same time. I needed her just as much.
This explains the song's downbeat lyrics. But where did the song's title come from? According to Smith:
[My girlfriend] would sleep even when it was sunny outside and she'd complain that there wouldn't be any rain, because that would give her an excuse to stay in.
An alternative take on this song comes from Dave Raymond, huge fan of Blind Melon, and guitarist for the funk metal band, Rubikon:
My interpretation of the lyrics to No Rain is that it's an homage to boredom, sluggishness, and general malaise. In fact, I think the character sort of revels in the boredom and lack of direction he's got. "...and I start to complain when there's no rain..." etc. Seems to enjoy escaping reality/responsibility by hiding behind a book/meandering/doing nothing."

:) U could b describing "Got My Mind Set on You" by George Harrison. That was a wonderful song and an darn good vid, I mite say. U gotta love how the mounted animals sign along, one animal playin' the sax, & some stunt 2x doing the part where George dances (well, I'd assume it was a stunt double). Cool song from one of the most legendary recording artists ever. God bless Mr. Harrison; we miss him. & my siblings r Beetles fans w/ major respect for George. I think I'll go find the video on YouTube.

It sounds like you're describing the video to No Rain by Blind Melon. I think it was their biggest single, certainly in the UK anyway. Their vocalist Shannon Hoon died a drug-influenced death in the late 90's. Axl Rose, a childhood friend of Hoon's from their Indiana days, was one of the last people to see him alive.

I know the video you're talking about but don't remember the song or artist either. I do know that the lead singer died (I think suicide, but not positive) Good Luck!!
