The story behind
Air Supply released My Best Friend as part of their album Lost in Love, which came out in 1980. The song is a soft track, with a rhythm that moves between soft rock and hard rock. The voices of the two brothers, Mike and Graham Russell, intertwine in a melody that seems to tell a story of deep friendship. The lyrics speak of a friend who is always there, no matter what happens. The song isn't very long, lasting just over two minutes, but in that time it says a lot. In their shows, the band plays it as a tribute to that unbreakable connection. It's a piece that stays in your head, not just because of how it sounds, but because of how it feels. ↓ Skip to chords
