Taylor Swift Releases New Original Song for Toy Story 5
Fresh off the success of her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, 14-time GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Taylor Swift is adding another milestone to her career with an original song created specifically for Disney and Pixar's Toy Story 5.
The song, titled I Knew It, I Knew You, was written and produced by Taylor Swift and longtime collaborator Jack Antonoff. It will be available on major streaming platforms beginning June 5 and will also be included on the official Toy Story 5 soundtrack releasing June 19.
The announcement has generated excitement among both Swifties and longtime Toy Story fans, especially since the song is said to reflect the emotional journey of Jessie, the beloved cowgirl first introduced in Toy Story 2.
A Return to Taylor's Country Music Roots
One of the most interesting aspects of the new song is its musical direction.
Inspired by Jessie's continuing story in Toy Story 5, I Knew It, I Knew You reportedly embraces the country influences that helped launch Taylor Swift's career. The track combines heartfelt storytelling with themes of friendship, loyalty, growth, and belonging—qualities that have long been central to both Taylor's music and the Toy Story franchise.
According to director Andrew Stanton, Taylor immediately understood Jessie's character and emotional journey, helping create a song that feels naturally connected to the film.
For parents introducing their children to Taylor Swift's music, this collaboration may also serve as a nostalgic reminder of her earlier country-inspired songs.
