"Roll to Me" is a 1995 single from Del Amitri, included on their album Twisted. "Roll to Me" became their most popular song in the US, peaking at No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It was less successful in their native UK, peaking at No. 22, lower than previous singles, "Here and Now" and "Driving With the Brakes On", but was a massive airplay hit there. The band does not consider the song one of their best and have often seemed irked that what they see as a throwaway pop song gave them their biggest hit.[1]

The song was heard in TV shows and movies including Beavis and Butt-head, Second Noah, Family Guy, Dating the Enemy, One Day, Hindsight and the trailer for the 1996 remake of Flipper.
