"Friends" is a 1993 single by Norwegian singer Stella Getz.[1] It is her first single, taken from the debut album Forbidden Dreams. The song reached top 5 on the charts in Norway,[2] and top 10 in Denmark and Israel.

Music video

A music video directed by Matt Broadley was produced by Mega Records to promote the single. It features Stella Getz in a big yellow-painted room. Through a giant pirate binocular she sees a crowd of "friends" arriving and then starts singing. A lot of "friends" are coming through the door, although Stella tries to keep them outside. The "friends" are wearing white masks and they're taking over the place. They're breaking LP-records and dancing on them, eating all the food in the fridge and tagging down the walls with graffiti spray. In the end the "friends" are dancing around Stella which have been tied with a rope to a tall lamp and the yellow room have been smashed.
