My Friend (Groove Armada song)

"My Friend" is a song by English electronic music duo Groove Armada, released as the second single from their third studio album, Goodbye Country (Hello Nightclub) (2001), on 5 November 2001.

The song features vocals by Celetia Martin and contains a sample from "Got to Learn How to Dance" by Fatback Band[1] and samples a drum break from Skull Snaps' "It's a New Day".

[citation needed] The lyrics are an interpolation from Brandy's 1995 hit "Best Friend".

The song was featured in a Dutch television commercial for Royal Club soft drinks in 2002,[citation needed] which resulted in a re-release of the single in the Netherlands and a higher charting in the Dutch singles charts than the year before.

[citation needed] The music video features a woman (played by model Sarah Wietzel) going through a typical day at work, interspersed with scenes from a holiday with her friends.
