**** no. It was highly annoying and I'm glad it's over. 

[Gladiator]

no. I found the barbie era highly cringe.

I'm nostalgic for future nostalgia / chromatica / heaven & hell / the album / <covid> era

Love brat tho.

I'm torn on the matter. Summer 2023 was so great in terms of pop culture with the combination of Barbie (and associated music), Eras Tour and Renaissance Tour (and their associated tour film), but on a personal level, summer 2024 was simply the best (and was the year I actually attended The Eras Tour). So I'm not sure which one I'm more nostalgic towards.

Charli is in both, what a legend

[Kyoto]

Billie is in both, what a legend

Barbie feels like it came out last year. Omg, time moving so fast. Wtf

[ChooseyLover]

I'm nostalgic about the Barbie era where Barbie wasn't weaponized and used for any ideological agenda, and the dolls were better and the animated films kept dropping (which had very different themes), and they didn't alienate their audience portraying men as evil and dumb disposable garbage for validation.

Barbie will be remembered for years to come

[ICLDXU4HS]

Barbie remains a mid ass unfunny movie with comedy for 3-year-olds everyone pretended to like for social media and even Charli's song for it was ****. 

 

Thanks for reminding me Dance the Night exists, though, WHEW. 

[bliaz]

Ew no

[Jotham]

Barbie, but I'm biased because 2023 in generally was just a great year for me.

[Top Dash]

Barbie gave us this masterpiece so I think it's even

Barbie era was so much fun, it was superior to br*t era in every way. Not to mention the beautifully ironic Oppenheimer premiere happening at the same time

[Cain]

I didn't really care for Barbie but I loooooved being in the movie theatre with people that are dressed up in theme. We need to bring that BACK, that was so fun

[Escape]

Dance The Night really isn't that good.

I agree, it bops a bit but I never willingly play it. Thank god Houdini came right after and restored my faith.

I thought both were cringey af. I guess I'd pick Barbie though cause at least watching that, as annoying as it was, was way more tolerable than listening to that ugly green album.

[opticalillusion]

are we really comparing? Barbie era was a global phenomenon. Brat ''era'' was just something very very niche

Honestly this. Summer 2020 was the last time pop culture moments felt fresh & not forced. A lot of music came out during that time too so plenty to choose from. The world was positive looking forward as COVID was slightly starting to fade away. 

 

OT: Neither

[Princess Aurora]

Summer 2023 was so much fun. Summer 2024 was chaotic on the other hand

Speed Drive is the better Barbie era song

 

Oh Charli, the defining songstress of the 2020s 

[Cheers]

Both will be remembered for being overrated and overexposed

 

I don't get why BRAT got so much more love than Crash. A catchy aesthetic is really all it takes sometimes
