"Little Bear" is the opening track of Through the Windowpane, the 2006 debut album from indie band Guillemots. It was written by Guillemots frontman Fyfe Dangerfield.[1]

In a radio programme celebrating the 40th anniversary of BBC station Radio 1, Paul McCartney named "Little Bear" as one of his "all-time favourite songs".[2][3] McCartney called the track "a very brave way to open an album", and praised its "beautiful orchestration".[4]
