The powerhouse wrote and recorded the tune for Toy Story 5, and unsurprisingly, the track becomes a smash the moment it reaches the Billboard charts. In its first tracking frame of availability, "I Knew It, I Knew You" became a massive win on streaming platforms, a bestseller, and perhaps most notably, an immediate top 10 on the most competitive radio ranking in America. It's not unusual for a new release by Swift to sell and stream extremely well once it drops, but the performance of "I Knew It, I Knew You" on the Radio Songs chart helps her manage a first among all artists.
