Songfacts:  You can leave comments about the song at the bottom of the page.

Dave Wakeling, who was a guitarist and vocalist in The English Beat, says, "The song 'Best Friend,' I'm actually singing it to myself in the same mirror that 'Mirror in the Bathroom' was written in. It was actually my sister's bathroom in Birmingham. 'Best Friend' was singing a song to a reflection, you know, I just found I'm your best friend - you."
