The following day, the group posted an Instagram video of themselves mouthing along to audio from Friends, in which Joey and Rachel trying to suss out the secret the other knows. Yesterday, that secret was revelaed. NSYNC will release its first new song in over 20 years. “Better Place” was teased at the end of the new trailer for Trolls Band Together that dropped Thursday, and the track will be released in full on September 29. The news isn’t a total surprise.
