Meghan Trainor has been tapped to record a new version of “I’ll Be There for You,” the theme song from Friends.
Meghan cut the new version to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the beloved NBC sitcom. On September 22nd at 8:30 p.m. [ET] – the exact day and time that Friends debuted back in 1994 – Meghan’s version of the song will debut as the soundtrack to a music-to-light show at New York’s Empire State Building. The building will be lit up in the red, yellow and blue colors of the Friends logo.
“I can’t believe Warner Bros. asked me to do this,” Meghan says in a statement. “I’m so honored! I’m so excited that I get to be a part of celebrating such a legendary and iconic show like Friends!”
Following the premiere, her version of the song will be available at all digital retailers at midnight.

Ironically, Trainor’s husband Daryl Sabara (best known for his role as Juni Cortez in Spy Kids) appeared as a guest star in the show’s 10th and final season. He played Owen, the child Chandler accidentally tells he’s adopted. “When he showed me that episode and I remembered it was him, I freaked out,” Trainor says. “It plays on airplanes when we travel, and we always pop it on and we still scream every time.”
