"Bee" is a song by German singer Lena Meyer-Landrut, composed by American-Israeli songwriter Rosi Golan, American singer-songwriter Mayaeni Strauss and Norwegian songwriter Per Kristian Ottestad. It was one of three songs performed by Meyer-Landrut in the final of Unser Star für Oslo (Our Star for Oslo), the national pre-selection programme for Germany's entry to the Eurovision Song Contest 2010. However, the audience chose "Satellite" to be her designated song for the contest in Oslo.[3] "Bee" was made available for digital download on 13 March 2010[4] and is also featured on Meyer-Landrut's maxi single "Satellite".[2] The song subsequently charted in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, reaching peak positions of #3, #26 and #27 respectively.[5][6][7]

"Bee" is from Meyer-Landrut's debut album My Cassette Player, which was released on 7 May 2010.[1]
