Toy Story: An Original Walt Disney Records Soundtrack is the soundtrack album for the 1995 Pixar animated film Toy Story, with music composed, conducted, and performed by Randy Newman. The soundtrack includes the film score, as well as three original songs written and performed by Newman. It was released by Walt Disney Records on November 22, 1995, the week of the film's release, and the first soundtrack album from a Pixar film.[5][6]

The soundtrack for Toy Story received praise for its "sprightly, stirring score".[5] It received Academy Award nominations for Best Original Score and Best Original Song ("You've Got a Friend in Me"). Despite the album's critical success, the soundtrack only peaked at number 94 on the Billboard 200 album chart.[7] A cassette and CD single release of "You've Got a Friend in Me" was released on April 12, 1996, to promote the soundtrack's release.[1]

After it went out of print, the album was made available for purchase digitally in retailers such as iTunes.[6] The soundtrack, along with Newman's complete unreleased score for the film was remastered and reissued on July 17, 2015 as the tenth entry of The Legacy Collection series.
