With EDM already on its way out, Robin Thicke and Pharell placed another nail in its coffin this week…when their smash hit single ‘Blurred Lines’ topped the British charts for a second consecutive week, breaking a record set by itself last week!
Details below…
In the last week, the jam has sold a sweet 199,000- mind blowing, considering the size of the UK market and that it has done so without heavy physical promo from any of its contributing parties.
In selling this much, it nabs the record for scoring the highest selling weekly UK sales figure this year- after nabbing the same record last week, surpassing efforts made by the likes of Emeli Sande, Justin Timberlake, Rihanna and the Brit-Pop King himself, Robbie Williams.
Sure to see his supporting album of the same name fare just as well in the market, Thicke’s enormous success in the UK comes after the song peaked at #6 in the US and was certified 2x Platinum in Australia!
Congratulations!!

He deserve to have a night with me, he would never be the same again, a threesome with him, me and Justin Timberlake, i’m good in bed, i bet he is too, Justin seems like he still needs to learn something and i offer to teach him a few things.
n***** boring as hell.
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE WHO?
The one whose album was certified double platinum after only a month. lol
“With EDM already on its way out…”
PLEASE let this be true! lol!
Anyway, “Blurred Lines” is dope. I’m still bumpin “All Tied Up” from the awesome ‘Love After War’ album. But I’m looking forward to the new album in July!:)
this song is just blowing up. it is a funky throwback mixed with modern sounds and rnb feel by robin thicke, all the makings of an average charting on billboard rnb charts, BUT its a hit. is THIS the sign that rnb is coiming back? and now usher is releasing twisted as a single AFTER the success of robin’s
yep, it is an r&b Marvin gaye sample… I youtubed Marvin Gaye after I heard this song….
My mama got the Marvin Gaye song they sampled… ti sounds almost exactly the same… Pharrell just modernized it a little bit
Amen @ hardcore EDM fading! Hopefully artists like Robin, Daft Punk (with their album being VERY R&B oriented), and my fave get more hits in the future.
R&B is back!!!!!!!!!
And Robin & Pharrell did this by using the Marvin GAYE “Got to GIve it UP”.
This is an ode to ole school r&b…
it proves good music never dies
Snooze….
Yes Robin! CONGRATS! So happy for him, he deserve this plus more! We need more artist like him with talent, topping charts WW! So tired of these gimmicks and untalented artists. #BLURRIED LINES
Congrats even though i don’t like the song
He was on a UK talk show. Thats promo
I love this beautiful WHITE man.
Wherever that beautiful “WHITE” man right now, rest assured that he’s not thinking about you at all.
so happy for Robin and Thank God EDM is out of the charts.
Well done however he hasn’t broken any records, he just stayed #1 for another week.
Atleast the song is decent though!
Congrats! Who would have thought?
But seriously, this sentence alone: “In selling this much, it scores the record for being the highest selling song of the week in the UK”
WHAT???? That´s called a record now too? No wonder Beyonce, Nicki Minaj or Rihanna break so many records in your mind… lol the delusions.
Wow that was odd. I just wrote an really long comment but after I clicked submit
my comment didn’t show up. Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over again. Anyhow, just wanted to
say superb blog!
