New Friend Request

"New Friend Request" is a song by American rap rock band Gym Class Heroes, released as the second single from their third studio album, As Cruel as School Children (2006). The single was released on 23 October in the UK and was the band's second consecutive single to be a non-chart qualifier as both physical formats contained a sticker, which is against UK chart rules regarding promotional pack-ins.

A remix, produced by Hi-Tek, is featured on the soundtrack album Snakes on a Plane: The Album.
