Robin Thicke Goes Over The Line With Bruno Mars & Daft Punk
Quote:
NEW YORK, N.Y. - You're listening to it on the way to the beach, or when your toes are resting in the sand. Or you're on a crowded train without a seat, sweating as funky smells scorch from the left or right. Luckily, you're jamming to funky summertime beats, you're doing OK.
Or maybe it's when you're walking your dog or you're on a road trip with friends or family. Songs of the summer not only get you through the day, they also get you through the months before winter's cold kills your fun vibes.
We asked Robin Thicke and Icona Pop why their multiplatinum hits should be named "song of the summer." And for Miley Cyrus, Daft Punk and Bruno Mars, who weren't available to chat, we pulled lyrics from their anthems to defend their honour.
YOU KNOW YOU WANT IT
"Blurred Lines," Robin Thicke, featuring T.I. and Pharrell
"It has a (nice) tempo, it has a sense of humour and it feels like live music instead of that synth and digital sound, which Daft Punk has (with 'Get Lucky') and (Bruno Mars') 'Treasure' has," Thicke said of his infectious, naughty jam, the longest-running song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this year at eight weeks (and counting). "It makes you laugh, it's soulful and it's got an organic sound to it."
I can't at him accusing bruno of using machines when Treasure is all about live instruments and it's all about bruno playing it with a live band.
Not Perez kinda copying my thread and catching the shade made by Robin.

Robin Thicke is obviously super competitive..
..maybe a bit TOO competitive.
During his bid for Blurred Lines to be named the top song of the summer, the Blurred Lines singer forgot how to play nice and took a deep, DEEP dig at Daft Punk and Bruno Mars.
In his unofficial campaign for the honor, the sensual singer said:
"It has a (nice) tempo, it has a sense of humour and it feels like live music instead of that synth and digital sound, which Daft Punk has (with 'Get Lucky') and (Bruno Mars') 'Treasure' has."
Oooo burn!
Sounds a bit harsh to us, especially since his man Pharrell is ALSO featured on Get Lucky.
We're all for clean fight, but there is no need to put another man's art on blast.
Robin better check himself or else he might be in for a REAL footslap! HA!
He is pure trash. I can't believe that I bought this song so him can shade Bruno after the success
I see you when your album sells 4.2 million copies with three singles
That's why BL is selling 300k+ a week, and they aren't?
"Treasure" is boring, and that's why it's "underperforming" compared to other Bruno singles, and "Get Lucky" is as basic as they come, which is why it's Daft Punk's only top 40 hit to date. "Blurred Lines" isn't some production masterpiece or anything like that, but it's way better than either of those songs.

Exactly. Does he think he is some huge star after 1 single now? Did he not read his metascore or look at his first week sales?
Basically condescending. Ironically they're both better songs.
