Blurred Lines” is a song recorded by Canadian-American R&B recording artist Robin Thicke for his 2013 album of the same name. The song features guest vocals from American rapper T.I. and American singer and producer Pharrell; all three share writing credits on the song. It was produced by Pharrell. The song was released as the lead single from Blurred Lines on March 26, 2013 through Star Trak Recordings.

The single has peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, as well as topping the Billboard R&B Songs chart. It has also become Thicke’s most successful song on the Billboard Hot 100, being his first to reach number one (and the top 10) on the chart (he previously peaked at number 14 on the Hot 100 with “Lost Without U“, in 2007). The song has been a worldwide hit, topping the charts in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland and the United Kingdom, as well as the top ten in Belgium, Denmark, Lithuania, France, Iceland, Italy, Portugal and Switzerland. As of July 17, 2013, it is the second best-selling single of 2013 in the UK, the Official Charts Company confirmed that it had sold one million copies, behind Daft Punk‘s single “Get Lucky“, which also features Pharrell Williams, And as of August 8, 2013, it is also the second best-selling single of 2013 in the US having sold 4.614 million copies (it only trails “Thrift Shop” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis featuring Wanz, which has sold 5.77 million copies in 2013). In the United States, the song topped the Billboard Hot 100 for eleven consecutive weeks, becoming the longest running number one single of 2013 and of the 2010s decade surpassing Rihanna‘s We Found Love (2011). This feat also gave him the eighth lead male solo artist in Billboard history to rack ten or more weeks at the number one spot for a single.

The music video was released on March 20, 2013, and was made in two versions; the first video features models Emily Ratajkowski, Jessi M’Bengue, and Elle Evans being topless, the second features them covered. The topless version of the video was removed from YouTube on March 30, 2013, for violating the site’s terms of service regarding nudity, though it was later restored, but flagged as inappropriate.

On July 28, 2013, “Blurred Lines” broke the record for radio audience previously held by Mariah Carey‘s We Belong Together in 2005. A press release from Interscope said as of the last week in July 2013, the track reached more than 242.65 million listeners.

“Blurred Lines” was produced by Thicke and Williams with an intention of creating a sound similar to Marvin Gaye’s “Got to Give It Up“. The song was completed in less than an hour. In an interview with GQ‘s Stelios Phili, Thicke explained: “Pharrell and I were in the studio and […] I was like, ‘Damn, we should make something like that [“Got to Give It Up”], something with that groove.’ Then he started playing a little something and we literally wrote the song in about half an hour and recorded it. Him and I would go back and forth where I’d sing a line and he’d be like, ‘Hey, hey, hey!’ We started acting like we were two old men on a porch hollering at girls like, ‘Hey, where you going, girl? Come over here!'” In a separate interview, Thicke clarified the meaning of the song’s title, saying it referred to “the good-girl/bad-girl thing and what’s appropriate.”All courtesy of Wikipedia.
