You've Got a Friend in Me

You've Got a Friend in Me

The 1995 song "You've Got a Friend in Me" was written and performed by Randy Newman for the animated film "Toy Story". The song received nominations for "Best Original Song" — both the 1995 Academy Award for Best Original Song nomination and the 1996 Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song nomination although the song lost to another Disney song, "Colors of the Wind" for "Pocahontas".

In 1999, for the soundtrack of "Toy Story 2", both a cover by Robert Goulet and an instrumental by Tom Scott of the song were featured.

In 2005, Pixar re-released "Toy Story" in a 10th anniversary 2-DVD edition, which featured a new music video of "You've Got a Friend in Me", featuring Lyle Lovett and Randy Newman.

American rock band, The Fray, has also performed their own rendition of the song during the "2007 Disney Grad Nite".

In 2005, a Disney musical revue called "Disney's On the Record" incorporated 70 years of Disney-Pixar music into a "concert-like" musical. "You've Got a Friend in Me" was performed as a duet by Kaitlyn Hopkins and Brian Sutherland.Fact|date=January 2008
