Two Friends Turn "Sweet Caroline" From Ballpark Belter to Festival Fire-Starter: Listen

It’s not every day that a barroom anthem makes its way to the mainstage, but Two Friends have never played by the rules of genre or generation. The latest release from the duo finds them flipping Neil Diamond's tried-and-true stadium anthem "Sweet Caroline" into a festival-ready thriller.

The official remix transforms Diamond's singalong staple for today's dancefloors, breathing new life into his cherished 1969 classic. It marks a new creative summit for Two Friends, whose meteoric rise from SoundCloud bootleggers to mainstage fixtures has been powered by their instinct for nostalgia and reinvention.

Long revered for their ability to infuse mainstream pop sensibilities with dancefloor heat, the "Big Bootie Mix" maestros approached their remix with reverence. The original's iconic vocals remain front and center but now glide over gated synths, buoyant basslines and a pulsating house groove.

But the track’s crowning moment might just be its surprise finale, where a horn-laced coda erupts in the closing moments like fireworks at the end of a championship game, driving home its crossover ambitions.

"An official dance remix of 'Sweet Caroline' has been a long-standing idea," said Katie Diamond, Neil Diamond’s manager. "The new Two Friends version both honors the song’s legacy while infusing it with an electrifying new energy."
