Harry via Instagram: “Meltdown kicks off today with Warpaint, a band I love so much. There are so many wonderful shows over the next 11 days, including the ambient pioneer Beverly Glenn-Copeland and the one-and-only Kamasi Washington. Please take a look at the free shows and parties throughout the festival, part of the Southbank Centre’s continuing efforts to make music, culture and art accessible for all across the UK. I hope to see you there”
Writing this song felt like a musical departure and coming home at the same time. Creating something for Jessie was a new challenge and also felt like second nature all at once. And being a @toystory kid from the age of 5 til now… is an adventure I plan to be on, to infinity and beyond.
Thank you to the brilliant Andrew Stanton for imagining me for this, all those years ago when you wrote this newest film. Thank you to the incomparable @RandyNewman or the gorgeous sonic tapestry of songs and scores you’ve meticulously woven over the years. You created the Toy Story musical world, and we are lucky to get to live in it.
By we, I mean myself and my pal @jackantonoff. We wrote this with so much adoration for these characters that made us laugh and helped us learn lessons and think outside the backyard all throughout our childhoods. “I Knew It, I Knew You” from Toy Story 5 is out everywhere now. 🤠🐴

“Your sign says, ‘We both like the same guy! Advice?’ […] Where does the gentleman in question live? You don’t seem sure? The UK. He moves around a lot! [laughs] Y’know my self esteem was really low today so I was really in need of this.” - Harry at #TogetherTogetherAmsterdam (via reneesconcerts)
