[Best Friend] Western friendship songs for women: Classic tracks to dedicate to a cherished friend (51–60)
With a Little Help from My FriendsThe Beatles
A song that reminds you your friends are always there.
All the members of The Beatles share vocal duties.
Released in 1967, this track has been covered by many artists.
It was also selected for Rolling Stone’s “500 Greatest Songs of All Time.”
Everybody Needs A Best FriendNorah Jones
Nora Jones, a globally renowned artist, released “Everybody Needs A Best Friend,” a humor-filled track performed with a lively big-band arrangement! Featured in the 2012 film Ted as one of the movie’s main themes, it drew lots of attention.
Blending pop and swing, it’s catchy and easy to listen to, and the lyrics express gratitude—something we often feel shy about saying out loud.
It’s a great song to gift as a birthday celebration for a dear friend!
FriendsMeghan Trainor
Speaking of Meghan Trainor, she’s a prodigiously talented artist who signed a publishing and songwriting deal as a teenager and became a popular singer-songwriter with her smash 2014 debut single “All About That Bass.” With a glittering résumé that includes a Grammy win, she released her second album Thank You in 2016, and today I’d like to introduce a track included on its deluxe edition.
Characterized by the oldies-inspired sound and nostalgic melody she excels at, this moving number expresses gratitude—saying it’s okay because friends are there for you even in tough times.
It’s during difficult periods that we truly realize the value of friends, isn’t it? This wonderful classic has a timeless appeal that reminds us of just that.
I’ll be there for youThe Rembrandts
Released in 1995, this single by The Rembrandts was also included on their third album, LP, released in May of the same year.
It’s widely known as the theme song for the popular TV drama Friends, which aired in the United States from 1994 to 2004 and was also broadcast in Japan.
The song celebrates friendship, featuring a bright, pop sound—perfect for September when the summer heat still lingers.
Its catchy melody sticks in your head after just one listen, delivering an addictive, fast-paced rush.
Originally only one chorus long, it was later recorded in full length as the show’s popularity grew.
It may also feel familiar in Japan, as it has been used as background music on talk shows and other programs.
Better in StereoDove Cameron
Even when two people have completely different personalities, it’s funny how they can still get along so well.
A classic song that captures this dynamic by comparing it to “stereo,” which only works with two speakers, is “Better in Stereo.” Used as the theme song for Disney Channel’s Liv and Maddie, which aired from 2013 to 2017, the track is sung by the show’s star, Dove Cameron.
Cameron’s impressive performance playing twin sisters with opposite personalities—by herself—also drew a lot of attention.
The lyrics, which say that even if the two have totally different opinions, they’re better together like stereo speakers, warm your heart just by reading them.
If you cherish someone but feel shy about expressing your true feelings, consider sending this song to your best friend.
