In 2000, Solem and Wilde reunited, and released the album Lost Together as The Rembrandts the following year. In 1998, Wilde released the album Spin This, credited to "Danny Wilde + The Rembrandts". In 1997, the duo split, with Solem returning to Minneapolis to concentrate on his band Thrush. An earlier, previously unreleased version of "I'll Be There for You" with different lyrics was included on their Unreleased Stuff album. The song was also featured on the Friends Soundtrack album. The success of Friends has caused a greater awareness of the band, and led to greater sales of their recorded albums. The single has been released in other countries, including the UK, where it reached No. 3 in 1995 and No. 5 in 1997. " I'll Be There for You," the theme for the sitcom Friends, reached No. 1 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart for several weeks before being released as a single and peaking at No. 17 on the U.S. Another track from the album, "Rollin' Down the Hill", was used in the film Dumb and Dumber. The next album Untitled, of 1992, featured the minor successes "Johnny, Have You Seen Her?" and "Chase the Clouds Away". The self-titled album scored number 88 on the Billboard 200. From this album, the group had their first success during 1990 with " Just the Way It Is, Baby", which scored at number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100. Īfter establishing themselves as The Rembrandts in 1989, Solem and Wilde recorded a self-titled album largely in Wilde's home studio. Wilde and Solem had been in the power-pop quartet Great Buildings, a band that released one album for CBS in 1981 before dissolving. Wilde was a member of 1970s cult recording act The Quick, and had released several mildly successful solo albums in the 1980s. The Rembrandts are best known for the song " I'll Be There for You", which was used as the main theme song for the NBC sitcom Friends. They had previously worked together as members of Great Buildings in 1981. The Rembrandts are an American alternative rock duo, formed by Danny Wilde and Phil Solem in 1989.
