"We Are Your Friends" started life as Simian's "Never Be Alone", until the French duo Justice remixed it into a single of its own, credited to Justice vs. Simian and released in 2006 on Virgin. Justice produced the new version, and the lyric credit is shared by Gaspard Augé, Xavier de Rosnay and Simian. It reached 20 on the UK Singles Chart, and its video won Best Video at the 2006 MTV Europe Music Awards.
It has kept finding new dance floors. Australian DJ Steve Camp mashed it up with Wolfgang Gartner's "Illmerica", and that version took off after Tiësto opened episode 186 of his Club Life radio show with it in 2010. A 2015 film borrowed the song's name, and in 2023 Dimitri Vegas and Steve Aoki reworked it as "Friends".
