Friend Like Me comes from Disney's animated Aladdin, released in 1992, where Robin Williams voices the Genie and performs the song as he introduces himself to Aladdin. Written as a show-stopping production number, it became one of the film's most quoted and replayed moments, helped by Williams's improvisational delivery and the Genie's shapeshifting visual gags. The clip has since circulated widely in edits, reaction videos and soundboards, where its instant recognisability and upbeat, wish-granting theme keep it useful for reveals, celebrations and nostalgic Disney content.
