Toy Story 5 (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Randy Newman’s Toy Story 5 (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) accompanies the fifth installment of Pixar’s series, continuing his role as composer across all five Toy Story films. Released digitally on June 19, 2026, through Walt Disney Records, the 27-track, approximately 75-minute album combines his instrumental music with “I Knew It, I Knew You,” performed by Taylor Swift and written and produced by Swift and Jack Antonoff. Primarily a score rather than a collection of pop songs, the release gives Newman responsibility for the film’s instrumental storytelling, with Swift supplying its opening vocal track.

The story’s confrontation between traditional toys and a frog-shaped tablet named Lilypad provides the soundtrack’s narrative framework. Titles such as “Tech Boom” and “Bonnie’s New E-Friends” reflect that technological disruption, while “Calling Woody” and “Welcome Woody” bring the focus back to familiar characters. The sequencing alternates short scene-setting pieces with extended dramatic cues, including the six-minute “Highway Robbery,” before closing with “Reunion,” “Bonnie and Blaze,” and “Happy Landing.” Heard as an album, it follows the film’s progression from disruption and adventure toward reunion, presenting Newman’s contribution as a sustained musical narrative rather than a conventional singer-songwriter release.
