"Everyone is Special" is an original Barney song that debuted in Barney in Concert.
Lyrics
You are special, you're the only one
You're the only one like you
There isn't another in the whole wide world
Who can do the things you do
'Cause you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
Oh, you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
You're important, oh, you really are
You're the only one like you
The world is better, just because you're here
You should know that we love you
'Cause you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
Oh, you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way (Everyone?)
Everyone in his or her own way

Trivia
- In the last line of the chorus, each character uses their own pose, which is unique to them and is worked into the choreography of the song, as in the above picture. These poses generally do not change over time, with a few exceptions.
- Beginning in the Season 2 episode Picture This!, Everyone is Special was reharmonized from the 1991 rendition used in Barney in Concert as well as in Season 1.
- In "A Very Special Delivery!", Barney also sings a lullaby version of the song to Tosha's new brothers.
- When this song was first sung in Barney in Concert, the lyrics were "because you're special" in the first verse, but in Season 1 and "A Very Special Delivery!", they were sung as "oh you are special". The current lyrics were first used in the episode "Picture This!"
