There was a music video (mid-1990s?) in which a kid tap dances on stage dressed as a bumble bee and no one claps for her and she goes away sad. Anyone remember what video it was? ---

Anyone remember what video it was? That’s not the Bumblebee Kid from Blind Melon’s “No Rain”, is it? Don’t recall her dancing in a stage, but I thought I’d give it a shot. ---

Yes, _No Rain_ by Blind Melon would be my guess too. It ends well though as she makes friends with lots of glamorous bee people in the end. It’s a lovely video IMO. ---

Yeah, it’s _No Rain_. There’s a part of it immediately before the song begins with her dancing and being laughed at. ---

It’s either No Rain or Rio. ---

Some variation on this video was used in some commercial in the past year, too. ---

Yeah, it featured a cute girl in a hot dog costume trying to give out flyers, but people ignroed her. She then saw a guy in a pepsi comstume doing the same thing. They walked of holding hands. During the entire commercial “No Rain” is playing in the background.
