A brand new track from Toy Story 3 that certainly won’t get lost in translation makes its debut today!
The Gypsy Kings‘ (seen to the right) recording, "You’ve Got a Friend in Me (Para Buzz Español)", is a new rendition of the world famous Toy Story theme — as you might’ve guessed. Randy Newman’s famous lyrics are sung in Spanish with an accompanying Flamenco tune.
Give it a listen below, por favor:
The track above was recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, by the way. I’m particularly excited about this little snippet from the soundtrack because I just knew that You’ve Got a Friend in Me would return in some way for ‘3’ as it did in part 2!
Lee Unkrich notes that ‘Para Buzz Español’ was made for the iconic Spanish Buzz scene, as previewed in the trailer. The (almost finished) version of Toy Story 3 that I got to see at Pixar did not include original music, so this is all new to me!
According to Disney, the Toy Story 3 Soundtrack will make its debut digitally on June 15th. No word on a physical copy — although Best Buy seems to have a pre-order up. Also of note, Amazon has ‘Toy Story Favorites’ CD for pre-order, featuring the best known TS tunes.
Do you like what you’re hearing? Let us know!

jajajaja esta buenisimo!!! ya me imagino a BUzz hablando en español XD
i really like it 😀 (Y)
Not again! This” lossy downloads only”-routine is really starting to annoy me, big time. 🙁
NAILED IT! I knew they’d have a Spanish version of You’ve Got A Friend In Me!
Best Buy lists a physical soundtrack release on their site.
Hehe, the song sounds funny (not bad). I’m from Mexico, and recently I’ve made some friends from Spain, and we always talk about the differences when we talk spanish, and these last few days we’ve actually been talking about Disney songs, and I heard the ‘Hay un amigo en mi (there’s a friend in me)’ version from Spain, as I had only heard the latin version which is ‘Yo soy tu amigo fiel (I’m your faithful friend)’
Good to hear Bryko, I guess I’ll just find the link myself and get this post corrected as soon as I can. 🙂
So cool. I’ll bet Giaccino had a big hand in this. Gypsy Kings Rule!
Is You Got a Friend in Me English version going to be in it?
Lovin’ it all the way, baby.
Found the Spainish version of the opening of Toy Story 1 – Hay Un Amigo En Mi. <3
