WOW! This song is ********. I'm surprised, it's cute but I didn't think it would punch like this.

Love this song, but HOW?  Is there some sort of PR plan or epic promotion that I've missed? I can't believe how this is smashing.

Well the video caught everyone's attention first. Then it spread like wildfire because of a RadioShack/Beats commercial. He then performed the song on The Voice and Ellen, and the rest is history.
WW, I guess the video helped a lot since other countries's aren't as snooty when it comes to nudity. He didn't perform in the U.K yet, but I think he's performing on Graham Norton this week. He also just performed on Germany's Next Top Model & The Voice Italy, but the song was already a hit in those countries before the performances.
I guess people are just loving the song

Blurred Lines has a Beats commercial currently airing in the UK.
The song was high on pre-orders prior to that though, people just seem to love this song.

A little off topic here, but I was just curious how songs are considered global smashes just because they do well in one place outside of the US.
IMO a global smash would be a song that's #1 in the US, UK, AUS, etc.
Congrats to robin for being #1 in the UK though.
