The movie \u201cBarbie\u201d has undoubtedly made a significant mark this year, thanks in no small part to its standout soundtrack. A collaboration of some of the finest artists in the industry, the original songs serve as a perfect complement to Greta Gerwig\u2019s film. From the uproarious \u201cI\u2019m Just Ken\u201d to the poignant \u201cWhat Was I Made For,\u201d the soundtrack effectively encapsulates the film\u2019s emotional spectrum.<\/p>\n
Among the tracks, Billie Eilish\u2019s \u201cWhat Was I Made For\u201d has been nothing short of a sensation since the release of \u201cBarbie.\u201d Not only did the song make waves in the music charts, but it also took TikTok by storm. Women on the platform utilized the song to delve into their own reflections on girlhood. This TikTok trend serves as compelling evidence that \u201cBarbie\u201d is undoubtedly one of the standout movies of the year.<\/p>\n
However, in an interview with Allure, Eilish revealed that the song\u2019s TikTok success had an unexpected impact on her. She confessed, \u201cThe way the song has been heard and seen by women is so special to me. All the videos are devastating. I go on TikTok, and it\u2019s video after video of how hard it is to be a woman, with that song playing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Interestingly, the process of creating the song was far from straightforward for Eilish. She explained that she was grappling with writer\u2019s block at the time, saying, \u201cWe wrote it in a period of time where we couldn\u2019t have been less inspired and less creative. That day we were making stuff, and were like, \u2018We\u2019ve lost it. Why are we even doing this?\u2019 And then those first chords happened, and \u2018I used to float \/ now I just fall down\u2019 came out and the song wrote itself. I have the whole video of us writing the song, and the first thing we wrote were those lines in the first ten minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Eilish went on to share, \u201cWe wrote most of the song without thinking about ourselves and our own lives, but thinking about this character we were inspired by. A couple of days went by, and I realized it was about me. It\u2019s everything I feel. And it\u2019s not just me \u2014 everyone feels like that, eventually.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
