Me And My Girls is a promotional single of Fifth Harmony. It is included on their debut EP, Better Together. It premiered on July 16, 2013. The song's music video debuted on the Disney Channel on August 24, 2013.

Background

On June 20 Scott Seviour, from Epic Records, confirmed on his Twitter account that there would be a new song be called "Me and My Girls," at first the original date for premiere was July 8, but then was switched to July 16. It would be premiered on Radio Disney as an exclusive. The cover-art was released on July 12 by Radio Disney along with a sneak-peak. On a interview with Radio Disney, Fifth Harmony's Normani said "It (the song) wasn't even anything serious, we just started writing it and we were like "Oh! Maybe this could be something." And it was fun to record, like, Ally transforms her voice!" The group explains the song as being "... about spending time out on the town with your girlfriends, exuding confidence and dancing like nobody’s watching".

The full song was leaked on July 13, 3 days before the day it was planned to be premiered on Radio Disney. The girls did perform the song on The Today Show along with Miss Movin' On on July 18, 2013.

Critical reception

Laura Plus Books gave the song a mixed review, saying it was "not the best song, not even mind-blowing but it was good. Definitely a song that I will listen to often." Christina Lee of Idolator gave a positive review, saying "the seismic “Me And My Girls” would make for the perfect moment to break out the confetti and fireworks". TheGrapeJuice.net also gave a positive review, saying "the song is enough to turn ‘Harmony’ critics into hardcore fans… Pop perfection to say the least. Jessica Rawden of PopBlend gave a positive review, stating that "The girls still need to work on putting together a more complicated dance routine, but overall, the group's second single projects exactly the image the girls have been hoping to stand for all along, at least sans the stupid bow Camila Cabello used to wear".

Music Video

The video for "Me & My Girls" premiered on August 24 on the Disney Channel; and a different version of the video premiered on Fifth Harmony's YouTube Vevo account on August 25. It was directed by Hannah Lux Davis and Tom Banks.

Lyrics

Fifth Harmony:
And we play our favorite songs
And we scream out all night long
Like ooooh oh
When it’s just me and my girls

Camila:
All the lights turn them off
It’s too loud in here to talk
I don’t understand a word you say

Normani:
Gotta sleep but instead
Karaoke on the bed
Taking duck face selfies right and left

Lauren:
We get crazy with it
We get stupid with it
We don’t care if people stare when we wobble with it

Ally:
We get diva on it
We get Queen B on it, yeah!
We get Britney, Demi, One Direction, Bieber on it

Fifth Harmony:
And we play our favorite songs
And we scream out all night long
Like ooooh oh
When it’s just me and my girls

And we dance like no one’s watching
We crack up booty popping like ooooh oh
When it’s just me and my girls

Watch me now

You’re all I need
There’s nowhere I’d rather be
Than to have you crazy freaks with me

You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream
The way you turn me on, I can't sleep
Let's run away and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me
Just one touch, now baby I believe
This is real, so take a chance
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back

And we play our favorite songs
And we scream out all night long
Like ooooh oh
When it’s just me and my girls

And we dance like no one’s watching
We crack up… booty popping like ooooh ooh
When it’s just me and my girls
