Hear St. Vincent’s Version Of The Golden Girls Theme
St. Vincent already had a dyed-white hairdo that could be seen as an homage to the beloved ’80s sitcom Golden Girls. And last night on Twitter, she offered something else up: A “dirge” remake of “Thank You For Being A Friend,” the Golden Girls theme song, done in slow, haunting synth sounds that recall Angelo Badalamenti’s Twin Peaks score. If she hadn’t identified this song as the Golden Girls theme, there’s no way anyone could’ve guessed it. Listen to both St. Vincent’s version and the original below.

Annie Clark’s heart is true. She’s a pal and a confidant.
