I have a lot of textural stuff throughout the film with two major spots where I do some soloing,” he continued. “One in particular is pretty cool because it’s the big song that Ryan Gosling sings and Slash plays on it as well! There’s a specific moment in the song that’s only in the movie where I’ve got this fun solo with some tapping and stuff. Such a cool opportunity. Honoured to be a part of it.” IFPI" (in Czech).

Except, when she’s not. Given her intrusive thoughts about dying, her flat foot debacle and some cellulite beginning to peek through her shiny, bronzed limbs: she’s far from fine. He added: “And there is an unspoken Ken code that if you buy another Ken’s style, you have to give them your most prized possession. So, I hope you will accept the Ken guitar as my humble offering. Besides, Ken doesn’t really play anyway. So, it will be much better in your hands.” With big incel vibes from the start – witness the chorus: “I wanna push you around/ Well, I will, well, I will/ I wanna push you down/ Well, I will, well, I will/ I wanna take you for granted/ Yeah, I wanna take you for granted” – it is the antithesis of what Barbie hopes for on her return to Barbie Land. This is not the song to win them over, Kens, it only serves to make the anti-brainwashing of the other Barbies more urgent. a b c d e Jarvey, Natalie (July 11, 2023). "Singing "I'm Just Ken" in 'Barbie' Was Ryan Gosling's Idea". Vanity Fair . Retrieved October 14, 2023.To hear some of Van Halen deploy two-handed tapping on a Barbie score, however, you might have to wait for the film. Ronson recorded a demo of "I'm Just Ken" and sent it to director Greta Gerwig, although he wasn't expecting it to be included in the film. Gerwig, however, loved the song and played it for Ryan Gosling, who plays Ken. [4] Gosling stated that it affected him "deeply" [3] and asked if he could perform it in the film. [5] Gerwig had to rewrite an important scene in the film to accommodate the new addition. [4] [6]

Ryan Gosling's 'I'm Just Ken' song lands on Billboard's Hot 100". TODAY.com. August 4, 2023 . Retrieved August 7, 2023. I'm Just Ken" is described as a sentimental "'80s power ballad." [3] Ahead of the film's release, marketing and promotional materials often contained the tagline, "She's everything. He's just Ken," an allusion to the song. [4] Production [ edit ] Would Barbie have received this enlightenment if she hadn’t travelled to the real world, and met people along her path who helped her understand who she was? Possibly, possibly not. But her favourite song was suggesting self-realisation right from the very start. Famously, Gosling also polished up his piano prowess for La La Land in 2016, where he played a gigging jazz pianist with lofty ambitions. In press interviews promoting the film, Gosling told Jimmy Kimmel that it really was him playing the piano: “I had to play the whole theme of the movie on the piano in one take, without messing up.”Ahead of Barbie 's release, Warner Bros. released a clip of Gosling's performance of "I'm Just Ken" on July 10, 2023. [9] [10] A "behind-the-scenes" music video mixing rehearsal footage with clips from the actual musical sequence in the film was released on August 21, 2023. [11] Personnel [ edit ] Of all the Kenergy he brings to Barbie Land, it’s Ken’s insistence on performing a song to Barbie on his guitar at the beach, while she watches, presumably in adoration, that’s most laughable. Especially when the chosen song is… “Push” by Matchbox 20.

So while this song isn’t the misogynist’s anthem some may have taken it for, it speaks volumes for Ken’s behaviour in the film. He feels undervalued, unloved and always like the lesser partner (after all, he’s just Ken). For all the wrong ways Ken then goes about it (of which there are…many) he just wants to be heard and also is on his own journey, like Barbie, to find his own identity outside of their relationship. Closer To Fine”, written by Emily Saliers, one half of the Indigo Girls, at first glance is a joyful, folksy little ditty. But the lyrics reveal that the person singing is confused about their place in the world, searching all around for a sign to point them in the right direction as to who they really are. Hi Jimin, it’s Ryan Gosling here,” he said. “I noticed that your Permission To Dance video outfit is the same as my Ken outfit in the upcoming movie Barbie. I have to give it to you, you wore it first and you definitely wore it better.”

Gerwig is clever enough to deliver these with self-awareness and some sarcastic jokes (Mirren thanking Barbie for ending misogyny is a highlight), meaning the balance between reality and commercial is never lost. For a movie that ostensibly exists to promote a doll, this is laudable.” On a musical level, there’s something life affirming about the note jumping up an octave in the last syllable of “fi….ine”, implying that everything’s going to work out just fine in the end. This ties in with the repeated lyrical phrase at the song’s end (along with a “Yeah”): “The less I seek my source for some definitive/the closer I am to fine”, which suggests the truth of what we need to know is hidden deep within ourselves, and we shouldn’t be distracted by outside influences who claim that they know us better.
