You've Got a Friend (Sonia and Big Fun song)
"You've Got a Friend" is a song written and produced by Stock Aitken Waterman and performed by Sonia and Big Fun, and featuring Gary Barnacle on sax. The song, a midtempo pop ballad, was released as a charity single for the Childline foundation on June 11, 1990. Initially the artists recorded the well-known Carole King song of the same name, but for reasons unknown it was ultimately not used and SAW wrote an original song with the same name instead. The cover version was finally released in the 2010 re-issue of Big Fun's album, A Pocketful of Dreams.

gollark: I would, if possible, prefer an xenowyrm - changing the color scheme is fine.
gollark: There might be other oddly shaped ones which *do* have 12 identical faces though.
gollark: Not with regular polygons as faces!
gollark: <@!192738500934762497> This is a bit late, but I think a better 12-sided die would be dodecahedral. Unless that one already is and I can't see it.
gollark: You should probably just treat prices as random walks. Sometimes with vague upward/downward trends.
