"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". 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, 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.
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.
