Telling the World is the theme song for Rio. It is sung by Taio Cruz during the credits. It could possibly be meant to represent Blu's point of view, as Blu himself found the girl of his dreams.
There are two music videos for this: one short video depicting Taio singing in a studio with the characters (with a monkey stopping the music, and extra dialogue from Pedro) and the complete song with Taio on a beach, in the city, and on a bridge, and both have clips from the film itself.
The shorter one has audio from the film with the clips, while the longer one has the clips muted.

- Every part in my heart I'm giving out
- Every song on my lips I'm singing out
- Any fear in my soul I'm letting go
- And anyone who asks I'll let 'em know
- She's the one, she's the one, I say it loud
- She's the one, she's the one, I say it proud
- Ring a bell, ring a bell for the whole crowd
- Ring a bell, ring a bell
- I'm telling the world that I've found the girl
- The one I can live for, the one who deserves
- Every part in my heart I'm giving out

- She's the one, she's the one, I say it loud
- She's the one, she's the one, I say it proud
- Ring a bell, ring a bell for the whole crowd
- Ring a bell, ring a bell
- I'm telling the world that I've found the girl
- The one I can live for, the one who deserves
- To give all the light, a reason to fly
- The one I can live for, a reason for life
