The Magic Friend

About The Magic Friend

"The Magic Friend" is a song recorded by Dutch Eurodance band 2 Unlimited. It was released in August 1992 as the fourth and final single from their debut album, Get Ready!. The UK release once again omitted Ray Slijngaard's rap, which lasted for 16 bars three times through, but did include some of the vocals from Anita Doth, though her vocals are slightly chopped too, with the "mocking chorus echoes" being abandoned, thus leaving her sole vocals as "disembodied whispers" during the middle eight. The single scored chart success in many European countries with its highest peak coming in Finland where it topped the charts. In Zimbabwe it peaked at number 5 in October 1992. more »
