Song of the Week – Honeybee, by Garbage
From the sultry bassline in the intro and Shirley’s deep breathing, to the whiny guitar and hopeful riffs throughout the song, Shirley sings this song on my behalf.
Honeybee is about someone who’s always flitting from flower to flower like a bee, but never to her – and she wants him, badly. Current story of my life.
At least I got a taste once, but we all know that just one taste is never enough. 
“When you gonna notice me
God you’re such a little tease
When you gonna finally land it on my lips
When you gonna give me just a little sip
You’re a honeybee…
You’re killing me.”
