A Bug's Life: An Original Walt Disney Records Soundtrack is the soundtrack to the 1998 Disney/Pixar film A Bug's Life featuring original music composed by Randy Newman and released on October 27, 1998 by Walt Disney Records.[1] Aside the instrumental cues accompanying the album, it also features an original song "The Time of Your Life" written and performed by Newman.[2]
The score transitions from orchestral music to 1940s jazz which was used when Flik travels to the city.[3] It was recorded at the Sony Scoring Stage in Culver City, California, Signet Sound Studios in Los Angeles and Conway Recording Studios in Hollywood, California. The score received a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Composition Written for a Motion Picture or Television and was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Musical or Comedy Score, and Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score.
In Japan, the film's image song is "STAND" by the Japanese band Hoff Dylan. It is also the first song on the Japanese version of the film's soundtrack.[4]

The people at Pixar liked that 1940s jazz. I did it in Bug's Life and they loved it when I did Flick going to the City and stuff like that. So, it was essentially what they wanted.
