Christmas has gained newfound vigor.
The hit song “I’m Just Ken” from the popular film “Barbie: The Album,” reimagined by Ryan Gosling and producer Mark Ronson for “Ken The EP,” features three new takes on the song: “Merry Kristmas Barbie,” an acoustic version called “In My Feelings Acoustic,” and a dance version called “Purple Disco Machine Cover.” (Instead of “Pink Disco”)
On December 18, the duo hinted at the next song while co-staring in a studio while donning Santa hats.
In the music video, which has Gosling reprising his Ken persona to perform in a holiday-themed studio, Ronson explains why he felt the need to write additional “Ken” songs.
For the 2024 Golden Globe Awards, “Barbie” garnered ten nominations, with Ryan Gosling being nominated for best supporting actor.
A nomination for best original song for a motion picture was made for “I’m Just Ken.” Gosling has already achieved his first Billboard Hot 100 success with the original recording.
Along with co-writer Andrew Wyatt, Ronson produced the song, which featured guitarist Slash of Guns N’ Roses.
