Is there a good old song about "friends or friendship" ???

I am making a "Photo Story movie" and need some nice song (NOT WITH A SAD TUNE) for the background !

Thank you !

Update:

"I'll be there for you" is great ! I need some more please !!

Update 2:

"You're my mate" is hilarious !!

Update 3:

I love James Taylor myself, but not for this "photo movie"! It needs an "upbeat tune" !!

    "Honestly" by Stryper is a beautiful power ballad. You can smell the hirspray in the air.

    "That's What Friends Are For" by Dionne Warwick, Elton John, Stevie Wonder and Gladys Knight. It was originally recorded by Rod Stewart for the movie "Night Shift". The Dionne and Friends version of the song won the performers the Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, as well as Song of the Year for its writers, Bacharach and Bayer Sager in 1986.

    James Taylor... "You Got a Friend"

    It's got an upbeat tune - it's not depressing!

    When youre down and troubled

    And you need a helping hand

    And nothing, whoa nothing is going right.

    Close your eyes and think of me

    And soon I will be there

    To brighten up even your darkest nights.

    You just call out my name,

    And you know whereever I am

    Ill come running, oh yeah baby

    To see you again.

    Winter, spring, summer, or fall,

    All you have to do is call

    And Ill be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.

    Youve got a friend.

    If the sky above you

    Should turn dark and full of clouds

    And that old north wind should begin to blow

    Keep your head together and call my name out loud

    And soon I will be knocking upon your door.

    You just call out my name and you know where ever I am

    Ill come running to see you again.

    Winter, spring, summer or fall

    All you got to do is call

    And Ill be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.

    Hey, aint it good to know that youve got a friend?

    People can be so cold.

    Theyll hurt you and desert you.

    Well theyll take your soul if you let them.

    Oh yeah, but dont you let them.

    You just call out my name and you know wherever I am

    Ill come running to see you again.

    Oh babe, dont you know that,

    Winter spring summer or fall,

    Hey now, all youve got to do is call.

    Lord, Ill be there, yes I will.

    Youve got a friend.

    Youve got a friend.

    Aint it good to know youve got a friend.

    Aint it good to know youve got a friend.

    Youve got a friend.

    YES! There is a fabulous song by bette midler on her 'experience the divine..' greatest hits album called 'you've got to have friends'!

    Its a very nice song and very meaningful! I think this could be perfect for a photo story movie!

    Good luck!
