Songs About Friendship

[Disney Duck]

I'm making a CD for my best friend and am looking for suggestions for songs about friendship, even if they aren't overtly so. He is male and I am female, if that matters. I can think of things off the top of my head like Queen's Best Friend but was just wondering if you have any favourites. Thanks.

Since my 1st 2 choices were said already...

What about:
Photograph by Nickleback
Ture Colors by Phil Collins and/or Cindy Lauper
not too sure but Lauper also has Time After Time

I'm sure there are others, but this is what I though of right away


umm didn't the Spice Girls have a suitable song too??


ETA:
Celion Dion has a whole bunch of friendship songs

I also did a search engine look up for songs on friends or friendship and there are a TON, maybe you can find some there too

FRIENDS by Bette Midler....(Oh, you got to have....) FRIENDS!!!!!

I LOVE IT!!! It is an older song, but just the same and AWESOME song by Bette!!!

 

[parrothead365]

Disney Duck, All of those are sung by Jimmy Buffett.

What a great idea!!

You've Got a Friend - James Taylor
Stand By Me - Ben E King
Because You Loved Me - Celine Dion (this was my father/daughter dance at my wedding, but I think it could be a friend song)
The Dance - Garth Brooks (is this a friend song??)

How about the newest one from Tim McGraw? My Old Friend

"Best of Friends" from The Fox and the Hound

When you're the best of friends
Having so much fun together
You're not even aware, you're such a funny pair
You're the best of friends

Life's a happy game
You could clown around forever
Neither one of you sees, your natural boundaries
Life's one happy game

If only the world wouldn't get in the way
If only people would just let you play
They say you're both being fools
You're breaking all the rules
They can't understand, the magic of your wonderland
Hu-hu-hu

When you're the best of friends
Sharing all that you discover
When that moment has past, will that friendship last?
Who can say? There's a way!
Oh I hope... I hope it never ends
'Cause you're the best of friends

How about Kermit the Frog's song. not sure of the title but it goes something like:
Friends Forever, sharing all our dreams together, never really knowing just how much you mean to me.....

"Circle of Friends" ~Point of Grace

 

[Minnie824]

"Count on Me" it was either Maria Carey or someone

 

[phantom728]

There was a song out in the late 80's from Michael W. Smith called "Friends". I was a band geek and it was the band song that we associated with our final years together.

"You've Got A Friend In Me" from Toy Story.

 

[PrincessDeb]

I had a theater friend (gay male) make me a friend cd last week and he included "For Good" from Wicked. That song always chokes me up. Great friend song!

 

[imsorry]

The theme song from "The Courtship of Eddie's Father"

People let me tell you 'bout my best friend,
He's a warm hearted person who'll love me till the end.
People let me tell you bout my best friend,
He's a one boy cuddly toy, my up, my down, my pride and joy.

People let me tell you 'bout him he's so much fun
Whether we're talkin' man to man or whether we're talking son to son.
Cause he's my best friend.
Yes he's my best friend.
(scat finish).
