We all remember the upbeat, jangling guitar rendition of The Rembrandts' "I'll Be There For You" from the days when the hit NBC show Friends ruled the airwaves. The song was hopeful, fun and peppy - the perfect compliment to one of TV's most successful comedies of all time.

Irish musicians Glenn Murphy, Oisin O'Callaghan and Ronan Scolard created a cover that shows us a different side of the iconic song. Their performance is a slow, wistful and absolutely beautiful tribute to the classic song that dares anyone listening not to weep.
