Sarah McLachlan, Randy Newman Team Up For "Toy Story 2" Track
Fresh off the success of her recent live album,
singer Sarah McLachlan has now teamed up
with veteran songwriter Randy Newman for a
new song in the upcoming computer-animated
film, "Toy Story 2."
The song, entitled "When She Loved Me," was
written by Newman and sung by McLachlan
for the film's soundtrack, which is due in stores
on November 9. In the actual movie, "When
She Loved Me" is performed by the Jesse The
Cowgirl toy (a character voiced by actress
Joan Cusack) and tells how this particular toy
went from being one of her owner's favorites
into just another forgotten plaything.
Newman, perhaps best known in pop circles
for his controversial 1978 hit "Short People"
and his 1983 song "I Love L.A.," has been
nominated for twelve Oscar Awards for his
work on such films as "The Natural," "James
And The Giant Peach," and the first "Toy
Story."
For the 1999 Academy Awards, Newman was
nominated for penning the scores to
"Pleasantville" and "A Bug's Life" and received
another nod for the song "That'll Do" from
"Babe: Pig In The City," though he walked
away from the ceremony at the Los Angeles
Music Center empty-handed.
Sarah McLachlan wrapped up the final edition
of her Lilith Fair tour this past summer and
issued a concert album, "Mirrorball," that has
already been certified double-platinum after five
months on the record charts.
Just in time for the holidays, "Toy Story 2" is
due to arrive on screens on November 24.
