Meghan Trainor may have sang All About The Bass, but in reality, shes all about the Friends.
Thats why when Warner Brothers asked the singer to rerecord Ill Be There For You in honor of Friends 25th anniversary, she quickly agreed.
I was so honored. I love the show. Ive watched it my entire life, she told Extra.
Although Trainors favorite episode is the one where Rachel writes an 18-page confession front and back to Ross that hes too tired to read, she said Chandler is her favorite character most of the time.
Trainor dropped the track Sunday night at 8:30 p.m. EST 25 years exactly from the sitcoms debut on NBC.
To add extra color to the release, Trainors track came out just as the Empire State Building in New York City was lit up with the colors red, yellow and blue, which Today.com notes, are the colors of the Friends logo.
The show may have focused on Friends, but Trainors recording was more of a family affair.
I actually cut the vocals in my backyard in my studio, with my little brother, my older brother, my husband and my best friend, she told Rolling Stone. And we were just all laughing and in disbelief. Like, How is this really happening? It was a big party, the best night.

Adding to the Friend-liness is the fact that Trainors husband, actor Daryl Sabara, actually appeared on the shows final season as Owen, the child Chandler accidentally tells hes adopted .
When he showed me that episode and I remembered it was him, I freaked out, Trainor said. It plays on airplanes when we travel, and we always pop it on and we still scream every time.
