A great tune from the 'Toys' soundtrack written and produced by Trevor Horn (ABC, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Seal, Buggles-Video killed the radio star) and Bruce Wooley who also co-wrote 'Video killed the radio star'.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Memories of things that never happened
these are always the hardest to forget
all the old friends and the loved ones
these are the people you haven't even met
looking forward into the old days
looking back at what there will be
there's no reality it's just an illusion
there's no real sanity just plain confusion

how do you feel?
well I don't know just how I feel
all I know that I love you girl (what is real)
it's so real, so real, surreal

here we go

there is no single circumstance I never took a final chance
I made it something that you can see and touch forever
I always looked the same from every angle and never cast a shadow
that would change the way you thought about your very being
that what what you were seeing would always be
would always be
would always be the truth

how do you feel?
well I don't know just how I feel
all I know that I love you girl (what is real)
it's so real, so real, surreal
it's so real, so real, surreal
it's so real, so real, surreal
ooh it's so real, so real, surreal
oh all right ahhh!
well I don't know just how I feel

"We have a tradition of whimsy here at Zevo toys.
Dad began that tradition with Milton the Friendly Elephant
and it carries all the way through the new line."

there is no single circumstance I never took a final chance
I made myself a thing that you could see and touch forever
you always looked the same from every angle and never cast a shadow
that would change the way I felt about about your very being
that what what you say would always be
would always be
would always be
would always be the truth

how do you feel?
well I don't know just how I feel
all I know that I love you girl
it's so real, so real, surreal
all the seasons I have spoken
all the reasons I have rhymed
for the state of incandescence
just imagine what is real
simply then the words were spoken
just imagine what is real

what is real
what is real

Written by Trevor Horn and Bruce Wooley
Performed by Thomas Dolby with
Robin Williams and Joan Cusack as "Steve and Yolanda"
Additional Vocals: Bruce Woolley

  • Thought this would have Robin Williams in it, as advertised. :(

  • @Berloxin

    it does, he 's sings on the chorus.

  • I just watched the Toys movie with my girl friend last night, I am trying to find on youtube the full music video for the Yolanda and Steve song that was in the Toys movie... Is there a full leanth music video with Robin Williams singing that song on youtube ? If not or it it is, please send me a message or reply...

  • @KarjolasMask

  • I hope this video stays the way it is, this is really good song from the soundtrack and people from the WMG is claiming copyright infringement and muting really awesome songs now. I'm hoping this will stay up for a long time that goes for any videos out there.

  • It sounds better in the movie.

see all

  • @benny6555 You are a sad, sad person, dear sir. If I were you, I would grow up.

  • @Bluenile38 i know the feeling so whenever toys is on i record it and watch the video inside the film

  • Thomas is so good on this track- can't believe I hadn't heard it before now! Thanks for posting ^_^

  • Robin Williams needs to sing more awesome songs and be auto-tuned more!

  • @KarjolasMask

    i watched a movie with your girlfriend last night too

    she told me you were shit in bed so she came to me

  • Great Movie!

  • Forget 'A Christmas Story' "It's a Wonderful Life' and 'Home Alone', TOYS needs to have a yearly 24 hour holiday marathon.
