"Flake" is a song written and performed by American singer-songwriter Jack Johnson. It is Johnson's debut single and was released as the only single from his first album, Brushfire Fairytales (2001). "Flake" features Ben Harper on Weissenborn slide guitar and Tommy Jordan on steel drums. "Flake" became Johnson's first entry on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at number 73, and it topped the Billboard Triple-A chart for three weeks, becoming the best-performing song of 2002 on that listing. In New Zealand, it reached number six and ended 2003 as the country's sixth-most-successful song; it remains Johnson's sole top-10 hit there. "Flake" has become a popular song in Johnson's live performances and still garners radio airplay.
