Rob Thomas Reacts To Ryan Gosling's 'Push' Cover

Graeme O'Neil takes a look at Rob Thomas' reaction to Ryan Gosling as "Ken" singing Matchbox Twenty's "Push" in "Barbie".

Fun Fact: Push was the second choice for Barbie. Originally they wanted to sing Wonderwall but Oasis didn't give them permission

[K-Choi]

Push fits so well to Ken’s situation in the movie

It is one of the most misunderstood songs, but that's part of why it's so funny. A man who could write "Push" definitely has Kenergy-love Rob Thomas.

I just saw Match Box Twenty in concert and they were spectacular.

When Ken (Ryan) started singing the song l was like...oh this song sound familiar...as he kept singing..l finally figure it out😁. It was fitting in that part of the movie..😄

I love the song. And Ryan does an amazing job singing it!❤❤❤

I was so tickled when I heard this. I’ve been a huge matchbox twenty fan for decades AND Ryan gosling is my movie star crush so best of both worlds.😊

[Ellron]

I'm so glad they did push instead of wonderwall. Wonderwall is such an on the nose uninspired obvious trite pick.

PUSH....way deeper than I ever thought.

I've always liked Ryan Gosling's singing since I heard him & Dean O'Gorman sing together in Young Hercules back in 1998...though he was singing on the Mickey Mouse Club back in 93-96 w/ artists like Justin Timberlake & JC Chasez from NSYNC & Britney Spears & Christina Aguilera too, so I love that they gave him this song to cover!

NGL, I loved the joke, I got the joke, but a small part of me worried that this song was going to BECOME a joke as a result, not just because I personally enjoy it but because of what it's about, which helped me get past an abusive relationship of my own. I can now breathe a sigh of relief knowing that, yes, it was all meant to be friendly ribbing and the consensus agrees that it is. :)

The Barbie movie more like the Ken movie

[NechelleP]

I can't believe push was 26 years ago 😮.

As a long-time MB20 I'm just glad the band is getting attention as a result of the song in the movie...

[ediorfitzgerald]

I LOVE that song! Ryan has always been an outstanding singer. He did a great job, as usual. I love his work. I can’t remember anything I didn’t like him in. 👏🏾💯👍🏽🤩💥🔥💜😊

[Harrysound]

oh wow I didn't know this. it's one of the greatest songs ever written.

[Justforday]

That was my favorite part of the movie

[ultravioletpisces]
