💬| “A woman who has no peers when it comes to shattering records as a writer, singer and storyteller, a singular artist and a genuine phenomenon”
- Steven Spielberg on Taylor Swift as she’s inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame
Songwriters Hall of Fame honoring Taylor Swift:
“When your fan club includes everyone from icons like Sir Paul McCartney to Stevie Nicks, you can be sure that the hype is more than warranted, and the genius is genuine: Taylor Swift is perhaps the most renowned singer-songwriter of her generation, with a gift that cannot be duplicated. Bruce Springsteen called her a ‘tremendous songwriter.’ Billy Joel compared her to the Beatles, Dolly Parton has been a longtime admirer, and Carole King has called her an inspiration. For this list of esteemed artists who have influenced you throughout your life, to show you this level of respect, must be the honor of a lifetime.”
All you said was "Hi"
And I remembered I loved you
Came back when it mattered, I saw you
Standing there in the light of the window wearing that same smile
Man, it's been a while
But I knew it, I knew you
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. 🤠🐴

Que acto tan hermoso que te muestren música que no conocías. Más si es música que para el otro significa algo y te lo quiere transmitir para que tú también lo sientas. Creo que la música es la mejor manera de conectarse con alguien.
