Memories of being drenched in the rain with someone you love… it’s kind of romantic, isn’t it?

Included on Blind Melon’s 1992 debut album, Blind Melon, the song’s music video became a huge hit, making the “Bee Girl” character wildly popular in the United States.

Although vocalist Shannon Hoon had appeared in a Guns N’ Roses music video before the band’s debut—giving them name recognition ahead of time—they were not a hard rock band, but rather an alternative rock band with a Southern rock lean.
