IMPACTING COUNTRY RADIO IMMEDIATELY
Following the history-making success of her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, 14-time GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Taylor Swift has released a brand-new original song, “I Knew It, I Knew You,” for Disney and Pixar’s highly anticipated June 19 theatrical release Toy Story 5.
The new song — written and produced by Swift and Jack Antonoff — is available wherever music is streamed and purchased as of today, Friday, June 5. The single will be featured on the Toy Story 5 soundtrack when it releases on June 19.
Inspired by the rootin’ tootin’ cowgirl Jessie‘s ongoing journey in Toy Story 5 that began back in Toy Story 2, “I Knew It, I Knew You” also marks a return to Swift’s country roots, blending styles that have defined her record-breaking career as a songwriter and artist.

“Hey this is Taylor Swift and you’re listening to my new song I Knew It, I Knew You from Toy Story 5.”
“Hey everybody it’s Taylor Swift.”
..”.and this is my new song I Knew It, I Knew You.”
Toy Story 5 director and screenwriter Andrew Stanton said, “It’s incredible just how meaningful it’s been having Taylor write and perform this song. Her connection to Jessie and the immediate way she understood what the character was going through was undeniable. The song is so deeply connected to Toy Story. So much so that on first listen, it instantly felt like it had always belonged there, like a long-lost family member. It was kismet.”
