Long time ago, my son was about 3 years old, and he was watching the Toy Story movie on VHS tape about 6 times a day; a video of Lyle Lovett and Randy Newman singing this song was included at the end. We got in an elevator at the Houston Airport and a skinny guy dressed in black was the only person in the back of the elevator. I was talking to my wife and suddenly my son pulled my pants and with his head "pointed" at the guy. I tried to avoid looking at the guy, but my son insisted and I just recognized Lyle Lovett, who with his half smile was pretending that he didn't notice my son. My son didn't stop looking at him for the 3 or 4 floors ride and when Mr. Lovett was exiting the elevator, he looked at my son and just said: " You've got a friend in me". Fifteen years later, my son got tickets to watch him perform at the Texas A&M Auditorium; he never forgot that elevator moment.y

I have only seen Mr. Lovett and his band twice - once at an indoor performance theater with Francine Reed beltin' it out across the stage from Lyle... and outdoors at the initial weekend of concerts of the Red Ants Pants Festival in White Sulphur Springs, MT. Both times he was extremely gracious with audience and highly respectful of his bandmates. I think he's been this way ever since he started recording and having a public profile. He sure seems like the genuine article to me. This story of the little boy and Lyle in the elevator and how Lyle handled it speaks volumes to the man's character. I liked Lyle Lovett before... but I like him a little bit more after reading this comment.

I like the songs of Randy Newman, but I am not that knowledgeable about him. Did this song come out before the Movie or was this song- You Got a Friend in Me - or was the song Specificallly written for the Movie. The same goes- It Crazy out there- The Theme from the Monk TV Series. Was that song specifically written for the Series or was the song released before the SEries ever came out and the Producers of the TV Series like the Song so much, they ended up using it was their theme song.?
