Taylor Swifts Toy Story 5 Single I Knew It, I Knew You Sets Streaming and Sales Records

When Taylor Swift’s latest single burst onto the charts on June 5, 2026, it didn’t just echo through Disney’s newest Toy Story; it set a new benchmark for streaming and sales.

The track, the lead from Disney/Pixar’s Toy Story 5 soundtrack, racked up 27.2 million official streams and 46.7 million radio‑air‑play audience impressions in its first week. U.S. sales topped 87,000 units, split into 70,000 digital downloads and 17,000 physical CD single sales across three versions—original, acoustic, and piano.

Chart‑wise, the single reinforced Swift’s commercial dominance. It became her 11th number‑one on Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart and her record‑extending 32nd number‑one on Digital Song Sales. On the all‑format Radio Songs chart, the single debuted at No. 7, making Swift the first artist since the chart’s inception in 1998 to achieve multiple top‑10 debuts. The song also entered the top 20 on Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay, reached No. 8 on Country Airplay, and climbed to No. 9 on Adult Contemporary.

“I Knew It, I Knew You” was co‑written and produced by Swift and Jack Antonoff after the singer viewed an early screening of the film. The partnership follows their long‑standing collaboration on several of Swift’s recent releases. Distributed by Walt Disney Records and Republic Records, the track’s country‑radio promotion is handled by MCA Nashville, reflecting its blend of pop sensibility and country‑style storytelling.

The song’s performance is notable not only for its commercial metrics but also for its place within the broader context of Swift’s career. The 32nd number‑one on Digital Song Sales ties her with other top‑tier artists for the most chart‑topping sales singles in U.S. history. The Radio Songs debut places her alongside a select group of performers who have entered the top ten on that chart more than once—a milestone not achieved since 1998.

As of June 11, 2026, “I Knew It, I Knew You” remains the highest‑selling single from the Toy Story 5 soundtrack and continues to accrue streams and air‑play. The track’s success reinforces Swift’s ability to generate immediate commercial impact across multiple formats, while also highlighting the continued relevance of soundtrack singles in the streaming era.
