Before she starred on Happy’s Place, Reba McEntire had a different sitcom simply titled Reba in 2001. The theme song for that television series was a track called “I’m a Survivor.” While that song was released over 20 years ago, it found a new life in 2021.

That was the year that it became a trending song on TikTok. The way this works is that when a song starts trending on the social media network, it means people are using it over the background of something they record themselves doing. These moments are then collected and people can watch all the videos with the song as the thing linking them together.

For the Reba song “I’m a Survivor,” it was used to show people showcasing how they survive in their own lives. McEntire said she loves it when things like this happen, saying, “Heck yeah!” (via Daily Mail).

Reba McEntire even took part in the trend herself when she posted her own TikTok video in July 2021 that showed her trying to feed some farm animals and mostly failing. She pinned this video on her account, and it has over 4.6 million likes.

Reba sad that she was the one who chose the song for Reba. “Yeah, it was a single for me, and then when we did the Reba show, we were kind of like, ‘What’s the music gonna be?’ Well, in the show, I’m a survivor. So, there’s the song.”

The song “I’m a Survivor” is a track about a premature baby who grows up to become a single parent. It hit No. 49 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was No. 3 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. The version used on Reba was an altered version of the song.
