I’ve never heard of a song described as that. Yes, it is an “earworm”! This thread gets the song stuck in my head. “I know you want it…” repeating over and over…</p>
<p>sally, I feel your problem with me is best addressed in a private message. If you can’t do that, don’t resort to making posts solely about me.</p>
<p>Niquii, there is nothing I care to discuss with you in a private message. And it is common practice on this site to address a single person in a thread, and to sometimes redirect him or her to a more appropriate forum. Surely you know this, since you are such a frequent poster.</p>
<p>In any case, I wish you well as you prepare to head off to college. It will be an exciting time for you. Enjoy your first steps into the real world, and take all your favorite music…including “Blurred Lines.” :)</p>
<p>I had to look up the song-@@
I actually like some local hiphop/ rap artists
Blue Scholars, Common Market, Pigeonhed & Macklemore all are pretty catchy and without offensive lyrics.( if you were a Sopranos fan, youve heard Pigeonhed)
Too much good music out there to have to settle for crap.
And what a year Ben & Ryan have had!

<p>I’ve never heard this song. Until this thread I’d never heard of this song. And where does anyone see a video these days?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Just because it isn’t a bad thing, it doesn’t mean it is a good thing. The song is lame and after the first couple minutes, even though the women are attractive, there really is nothing left to see.</p>
<p>Best post in this thread goes to emeraldkity4 for Post #103! #MacklemoreForever</p>
<p>@geo Hey, I never said I liked the video. The video was a big let down.</p>
<p>Niquii, when you said it’s not a bad thing that people are complaining, it seemed to imply that you like it.</p>

<p>Blurred Lines legal issues.</p>
<p>Daft Punk’s new album is fantasticcc.</p>
<p>To me, thus lawsuit seems frivilous. However, the Gayes should let it go. No one will ever confuse “Blurred Lines” for “Got To Give It Up” and no one will ever confuse Robin Thicke for Marvin Gaye.</p>

<p>Youtube. If you’re brave. (I’m not)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>This year, we saw a song about marriage equality top the hiphop and rap charts. Gave me a bit of hope that maybe the tide of crappy music was changing. Ah well. lol (I’ve never heard of the first two you mentioned, I’ll have to check them out.)</p>
<p>@geo I like the song. I don’t care for the video. </p>
<p>@Philo I can’t stand “Get Lucky”. I used to like it but having to listen to it every nine minutes for six hours almost 4 times a week gets to you. </p>
<p>
That’s why you always have to be on your toes. They always slip through the cracks. ;)</p>
<p>Random Access Memories is the jewel, not Get Lucky.</p>
<p>When the song came on in the car, my daughter reached for the screen and changed the channel. “You’ll hate that song, Mom”. “Total tape culture”. Glad she knows this. I have no problem with nudity I’m a little leery of the power dynamics in the fully clothed men/naked women trope. Gets old. At this point, this many Hugh Hefner viagras later, it’s hardly edgy or interesting, even.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The reason was that I knew it sounded like other songs, and it was driving me crazy that I couldn’t figure out which ones. Had I waited a couple of days, I would have seen the news about the suit against Marvin Gaye’s estate.</p>
<p>Missypie started the thread because she wondered what other songs Blurred Lines sounds like… and that question would never have occurred to hear if she hadn’t been hearing the song. Is Blurred lines more rapey than rap and hip hop songs? Nope, but it’s more generally popular than rap and hip hop songs.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Now that I’ve read the lyrics, I am rather surprised that the song was performed “live on the Plaza” during the Today Show.</p>
<p>Never overestimate the intelligence of morning show producers. Their only concern is ratings. They’d strip their own grandmother naked LIVE! if they thought it would improve marketshare.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I think I remember seeing this this one. Wasn’t it about 3 years ago?</p>
<p>No, that was just Hoda and Kathy Lee after a few drinks…</p>
<p>Rerun of Robin Thicke on The Colbert Report tonight - in case someone hasn’t heard it.</p>
