[@Pep_Dream]

The Kenergy I felt when listening to this song for the first time was more than sublime. The song demonstrates how lonely a Ken can feel under the pressures of the world, but then shows how that once Ken confronts his feelings and shares them with all the other Kens, he is not alone in these thoughts. All the Kens, experiencing the same conflicted isolation as Ken, come together in unity and realize that they are not alone in this cruel world and can rely on each other in a bromantic Kenclusion to the song. It was a truly Kentastic experience and this song will go down in history as one of the Kenfamous songs of an era.

"Am I not hot when I'm in my feelings?" is a really good line, you should never have to hide your own emotions to be loved

[@strongback6550]

It's the job of men to be the bedrock of society and not break under pressure. The world relies on us to do everything even if they don't like to admit it.

[@pyroronpa]

I guess that's one way to look at it. I took it more as a critique of when women say "I want an emotional man.", or ask "Why don't you express your feeling more?", but then when he does, they're not interested. Then that gets me thinking, some men just don't want to get emotional and find ways to express themselves other than with words. So then when someone does try to pry at their emotions, they just become more of a nuisance.

[@sadtimesalways]

@@strongback6550 but it shouldn't be that way. showing emotion is healthy, suppressing it makes things worse for both men and women

​@@strongback6550 Bro definetly didn't watch the movie 💀 Only men expect this, while women expect to be able to participate in it. During history men have always been in power, which creates the feeling of what your comment said. "The world relies on us" except it doesn't. If women were taken seriously, you wouldn't feel that way. Either way, it is mostly women the ones that say men should express their feelings more, being mostly other men those who shame men for crying or feeling anything.

For everyone who needs to hear this today: You are Kenough. EDIT: Just wanted to share my favorite point that the movie made: what men need in order to truly discover who they are is the support and encouragement of other men; the idea that men need to dominate women to have an identity, or even merely that men require a partner, girlfriend, wife, etc. in order to have any identity at all is a poisonous illusion that not only harms women but cripples men's emotional lives and isolates men from each other. It makes the men that should be our brothers into threats and keeps us apart. Kens, you all look so cool.

Oh wow that's such a nice analysis! That's absolutely true! The obsession that our societies have on sexual/romantic relationships as something that completely defines someone has put men and women in horrible situations. It shouldn't be a life goal to search for love and validation from someone else. This obsession has put men in situation where they wouldn't feel comfortable sharing a traumatic experience, for example, because "men are always supposed to be in wanting of a relationship", or have their whole sexuality questioned just because they don't want to get involved with someone.

I'm just Ken Where I see love, she sees a friend What will it take for her to see the man behind the tan and fight for me? [Verse 2] I wanna know what it’s like to love To be the real thing Is it a crime? Am I not hot when I'm in my feelings? And is my moment finally here or am I dreaming? I'm no dreamer [Bridge] Can you feel the Ken-ergy? Feels so real, my Ken-ergy Can you feel the Ken-ergy? Feels so real, my Ken-ergy [Chorus] I'm just Ken Anywhere else I'd be a ten Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blonde fragility? I'm just Ken Where I see love, she sees a friend What will it take for her to see the man behind the tan and fight for me?

I really love how Ken eventually realized that he doesn't have to base himself around other ideas like 'Beach' or 'Barbie' to be Ken. He's just Ken and that's Kenough. All he needs to be himself is himself. I also love how this song represents every man's dream, being enough for themself and others along with pure bromanship. Perfection.

He realised he didn’t need to beach off anyone to get happiness…

[@LeventeCzelnai]

But why isn't it true for the barbies? Why are they allowed to be identified by their professions?

[@MrYuargai]

​@@LeventeCzelnaibut the movies also says it's true for women too. In the beginning, Barbie learns that she didn't actually help women in the real world and that most aren't the super successful barbies, however this too is ok and a totally valid life for a Barbie, not President Barbie or Mommy Barbie, just Barbie.

[@LeventeCzelnai]

@@MrYuargai I didn't get this. I remember when at the end she was sad that she is not good at anything and she said that she didn't have any part in helping them to get back barbieland. But the message there was that she was actually a key figure in everything. That's why I found it assymetrical at the end that Ken is enough as he is (doesn't has to find meaning in others) but Barbie is totally okay getting her identity from being herself in her own way. Unless the message is that your identity should be established by anything than your love towards someone. I also didn't get why Ken is good as he is when all the jokes were about that he is incompetent because his only identity was "beach", the fur coat expresses this too (hiding the lack of talents by extreme appearance).

The amount of Kenergy in this song is just breathtaking. The vibrato isn’t exaggerated and also isn’t forgotten. The clearness in his voice is truly astounding. The tone is impeccable. The volume transitions from mezzo piano to fortissimo are just brilliant. The background vocals in the bridge give chills down my spine. This song is truly more than Kenough. The exquisite piano at the start transitioning into the thunderous electric guitar adds a terrific touch. The breath control is truly phenomenal. This piece touched my heart and will never be forgotten, It’s a Ken out of Ken for me.

[@rrteppo]

He went from hopelessly in love with a woman who didn't care enough to realize he was homeless, despite the fact at the start of the film they were dating. To discovering his love of horses and self worth, after showing he was capable of literally taking over the world in a few hours, and then realized that power without his true love (horses) was worthless gave it all away.

[@FilmReactor]

@@rrteppoactually they werent dating in the beginning Dating is a true way streak Ken may say that they are boyfriend girlfriend But she doesnt see it that way Thats just how ken was designed to be

[@rrteppo]

@@FilmReactor Barbie also acknowledges they were dating. During the planning phase in the 3rd act she says she's unsure about dating him again after it's all over because he took over the world. She just wasn't thinking about him enough to even realize she didn't love him. At the end she even apologized for how she treated him all those years. It wasn't a healthy relationship, but they both knew it existed.

Women feel the same sometimes... I'm okay with Barbie and Ken just being a pair of PVC figures in a child's room, ready for them to be whatever they choose. No need to have them come alive on screen. But, I'm old school. To me, it's nauseating overkill. I'm not going to buy into the hype.

I love the storytelling present-how the setup for this point in the plot was the Kens being made to feel worthless, as reflected in the early lines. They fight, they dance, but by the end of the song realize the support they hold for each other and how they all can live a life of their own self-confidence without someone to control or be controlled by. “I’m just Ken and that’s enough. And I’m great at doing stuff. My name’s Ken-And so am I! *PUT THAT MANLY HAND IN MINE!”*
