The Chili's baby back ribs jingle got a makeover with the help of Boyz II Men

MICHEL MARTIN, HOST:

(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "I WANT MY BABY BACK")

BOYZ II MEN: (Singing) Chili's baby back ribs, Chili's baby back ribs.

MARTIN: The Chili's baby back ribs jingle just got a makeover with the help of Boyz II Men. The '90s R&B group said that the collab was a perfect fit because when the earworm first came out 25 years ago, people thought they sang it anyway. Just try to get it out of your head today. Just try. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
