Taylor Swift’s new single “I Knew It, I Knew You” shattered streaming records Friday across Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music.
The country track became Spotify’s most-streamed country song in a single day by a female artist in the platform’s history. On Apple Music, it set the all-time record for the biggest soundtrack single by first-day streams and the platform’s largest country single of 2026. Amazon Music reported it as the platform’s largest 24-hour global streaming debut for any song this year.

The song is featured in Disney and Pixar’s upcoming Toy Story 5, set for theatrical release on June 19. Swift also dropped the music video Friday, which centers on the cowgirl doll Jessie and teases her relationships with Woody and Buzz Lightyear.
The clip includes scenes that appear to be from the unreleased film, ending with a young red-headed girl resembling Jessie playing with the doll.
The release marks Swift’s return to her country roots, echoing the sound of her self-titled debut and the folk-leaning tracks on Folklore. She wrote the song immediately after an early screening of Toy Story 5.“Writing this song felt like a musical departure and coming home at the same time,” Swift shared on Instagram.
“Creating something for Jessie was a new challenge and also felt like second nature all at once. And being a ‘Toy Story’ kid from the age of 5 til now… is an adventure I plan to be on, to infinity and beyond.”
