\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u201cI Knew It, I Knew You\u201d is a song by Taylor from the soundtrack to the 2026 animated film Toy Story 5<\/em>. It was released on June 5, 2026, through Walt Disney Records. Inspired by the journey of the character Jessie, Taylor wrote and produced the song with Jack Antonoff. It is an upbeat country track about a reunion with a long-lost friend.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tToy Story 5<\/em> director and screenwriter Andrew Stanton told Variety<\/em>: \u201cIt\u2019s incredible just how meaningful it\u2019s 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<\/em>. 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.\u201d\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOn April 30, 2026, Taylor\u2019s official website briefly displayed a 48-hour countdown with a sky-blue background, white clouds, and blue-outlined yellow numbers, resembling imagery associated with the Toy Story<\/em> franchise. It was removed after approximately ten minutes and expired without an announcement. That same day, her official fan engagement team<\/a> shared a cloud-themed post on social media.\n

\nOn May 29, Disney\/Pixar billboards displaying the initials \u201cTS\u201d against cloud imagery appeared in cities worldwide, interpreted by Swifties and mainstream media as a direct reference to Taylor and Toy Story<\/em>. The artwork for Taylor\u2019s album 1989 (Taylor\u2019s Version)<\/em><\/a> [2023] was altered on streaming platforms to replace the seagulls in the background with clouds. The following day, Pixar posted a video of the Toy Story<\/em> character Jessie dancing on top of the \u201cTS\u201d billboard, with a caption referencing Taylor\u2019s single \u201cShake It Off<\/a>\u201c. Further promotions included the cover of Taylor\u2019s album 1989<\/em> <\/a>(2014) being updated with a Toy Story<\/em>-style font; cloud imagery illuminating the Empire State Building; clouds appearing in TikTok searches for Taylor\u2019s name; and her \u201cessentials\u201d playlist on Apple Music<\/a> being updated to feature only the fifth tracks from her albums, with every \u201cT\u201d and \u201cS\u201d in the lyrics capitalized.\n

\nA new countdown appeared on Taylor\u2019s website on June 1, accompanied by an illustration of a house and barn, Jessie, and the \u201cTS\u201d billboard on a hill beneath a cloudy sky. When the countdown ended at 14:00 Eastern Daylight Time (UTC\u221204:00), the website revealed the song \u201cI Knew It, I Knew You\u201d, set to be released on June 5, two weeks before Toy Story 5<\/em>\u2018s release. Officially announcing the song, Taylor wrote on social media:\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\u00abIt\u2019s a *Toy* Story! You knew it! My new original song \u201cI Knew It, I Knew You\u201d for Disney and Pixar\u2019s Toy Story 5<\/i> will be yours on June 5th. I\u2019ve always dreamed of getting to write for these characters who I\u2019ve adored since I was a 5 year old kid watching the first Toy Story<\/i> movie. I fell instantly in love with Toy Story 5<\/i> when I was lucky enough to see it in its early stages, and I wrote this song as soon as I got home from the screening. Sometimes you just know, right?\u00bb\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
