After lamenting about being “always number two” in the song I’m Just Ken, the emotional tune by Canadian actor Ryan Gosling has cracked the Billboard Hot 100, debuting at No. 87.

Penned by British music producer Mark Ronson, the 1980s-inspired ballad is taken from the hit blockbuster Barbie, with Australian actress Margot Robbie as the famous doll. A line in the song about Barbie’s boyfriend goes: “Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blonde fragility?”
