"Thank You for Being a Friend" is a popular song written by Andrew Gold. He recorded it for his third album, All This and Heaven Too, and the single version reached number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1978.[1]

The song later got life as the theme song to The Golden Girls in a version recorded by Cynthia Fee (who is also known for her 1984 duet with Kenny Rogers, "I Don't Want To Know Why"). It was re-recorded in a more modern, "Reggae Mix" style for the show's spinoff, The Golden Palace.
