about

“‘New Best Friend’ is a brand new song of mine which feels very much of the Peanuts-gang world and also related to Hot Chip. It is presented here as a solo performance, recorded in one afternoon with the help of Russ from TSPTR and Jake Skinner at Brighton Road Studios. We hope you enjoy the warm feels of this along with your Hot Chip x TSPTR Peanuts clothing.”

- Alexis Taylor

Recorded exclusively for the TSPTR x HOT CHIP collaboration by Alexis Taylor

lyrics

Have you got a new best friend?
You don’t call for me anymore
Have you found a new way of life
That doesn’t include me in it anymore?

There’s a way that I now feel
But I find it hard to deal
With the way it makes me hurt
‘Cos I’ve never been so hurt

Have you found a new friend
Who can finish your sentences like I did before?
Your impatience it knows no bounds
And I don’t see boundaries like I could before

There’s a way that I now feel
But I find it hard to deal
With the way it makes me hurt
‘Cos I’ve never been so hurt

Have you got a new best friend?
You don’t call for me anymore
