October 13, 201312 yr Indeed I saw the discussion on this :lol: I consider it a disclosure track though I'm sure it'll be on a LG re-release!! It's already on the deluxe version of the London Grammar album. No re-release needed.

October 13, 201312 yr 32 (from 28) Robin Thicke Feat. T.I. & Pharrell Williams - Blurred Lines [D] http://a1.mzstatic.com/us/r2000/015/Music2/v4/49/83/b4/4983b4cc-14a4-8e23-a87b-41055ea234b2/13UMGIM59314.170x170-75.jpg Chart Run: 1-1-1-1-2-2-1-2-3-3-5-7-10-10-15-18-19-18-28-32 [20 wks] Release date: 26-05-2013 Format: download only single Label: Star Trak, LLC Sales: 1,300K+ Video here: yyDUC1LUXSU Biography One of the more charismatic, flashy, and commercially successful R&B acts of the 2000s and 2010s, Robin Thicke didn't have the toughest row to hoe to achieve stardom, but he was one of the least likely artists to acquire street credibility. He worked for over a decade as a modestly successful songwriter and fledgling solo artist prior to breaking through — assisted by the Neptunes — with 2006's The Evolution of Robin Thicke. On that album, his inspirations, ranging from '70s Marvin Gaye to Philly soul to classic Brazilian music, vividly coalesced with his somewhat brash personality and remarkable vocal skill. It was the first of several Top Ten R&B albums in a career that involved symbiotic collaborations with long-term associate Pro-Jay, Pharrell and Chad Hugo, Mark Ronson, and Polow da Don, as well as credibility-enhancing appearances from (or with) Lil Wayne, Faith Evans, Jay-Z, Rick Ross, and T.I. Show biz is in Thicke's Canadian-American genes. The son of vocalist and actor Gloria Loring and theme song composer and actor Alan Thicke, he grew up in suburban Los Angeles, surrounded by the entertainment industry. A demo he recorded at the age of 14 was heard by Brian McKnight, who helped the youngster — subsequently nicknamed Brian McWhite — get a recording deal with the Interscope label. However, Thicke experienced his earliest success as a songwriter. Before the end of 2000, he either wrote or co-wrote songs for Brandy ("Love Is on My Side"), McKnight ("Anyway"), Color Me Badd ("Sexual Capacity"), Brownstone ("Around You"), Christina Aguilera ("When You Put Your Hands on Me"), and Marc Anthony ("When I Dream at Night"). He was also involved with several songs on Mya's Fear of Flying, as well as the majority of Jordan Knight's self-titled 1999 album, including the Top Ten Billboard Hot 100 hit "Give It to You." Despite all the work as a composer, he was still finding his footing as a solo artist. Advances of his debut album, Cherry Blue Skies, surfaced in 2002, but the album was shelved, adjusted, and given a different title. The revamped version, titled A Beautiful World and featuring Thicke's future wife Paula Patton on the cover, was released in April 2003. It did not leave much of an impression and peaked at only number 152 on the Billboard 200, but the brash lead single "When I Get You Alone" — which sampled Walter Murphy's 1976 disco hit "A Fifth of Beethoven" — reached the Top Ten in Belgium, the Netherlands, and New Zealand. Thicke's follow-up, The Evolution of Robin Thicke, didn't arrive until October 2006, but it benefited from a new alliance with the Neptunes. Signed to the duo's Star Trak label, though still technically an Interscope artist, Thicke scored a number one R&B single with the ballad "Lost Without U," and the album eventually went platinum. Thicke then settled into a lengthy career as a widely respected artist — with occasional diversions into humorous, self-aware showboating — who remained true to his root influences while occasionally departing from '70s-indebted stylistic comfort zone. The focused and refined Something Else, a September 2008 release, peaked at number three on the Billboard 200 and R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts, highlighted by the disco-soul throwback single "Magic." December 2009's Sex Therapy, led by its Polow da Don-produced title track, narrowly missed the top of the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Thicke's fifth studio album, Love After War, was his most swashbuckling release to date, issued in December 2011. He made a surprising crossover move in March 2013 with the lighthearted, off-the-cuff "Blurred Lines," a Pharrell production with instrumental cues taken from Marvin Gaye's "Got to Give It Up." Assisted by its explicit video, it topped the Hot 100, a rare feat in 2013 for an R&B single. The album of the same title followed that July. - iTunes Chart history (Year peak title): Robin Thicke 2007 11 Lost Without U -1- 2013 01 Blurred Lines (Robin Thicke Feat.

October 13, 201312 yr 2 Pharrell tracks in a row! (Speaking of which I've added 'Get Like Me' which was missing from Pharrell's chart history in the 'Blurred Lines' post). 'Blurred Lines' starting to drop quickly a bit earlier than I thought it would. I guess it burnt out too many of its sales in those first 5 weeks :lol:
October 13, 201312 yr *_*That chart run :lol: I prefer pharrells New one with daft punk :heart: Edited October 13, 201312 yr by jsg2013

October 2011's Top Room at the Zoo mixed an observational lyrical style inspired by the Arctic Monkeys' Alex Turner with a playful, lighthearted vocal delivery that recalled Kate Nash. Once Spraggan's audition had been televised, by early September Zoo had reached number 22 on the U.K. albums chart, while "Last Night" just missed out on the Top Ten of the same week's singles chart. - iTunes Chart history (Year peak title): 2012 11 Last Night -1- 2013 26 Lighthouse -1- 2013 18 Last Night (Beer Fear) [re-issue] -2- Discussion Thread Here

October 13, 201312 yr Absolutely LOVE Last Night, never really hit me till last week but it's brilliant. Her whole album is actually a lot better than I expected.
October 13, 201312 yr This maintaining the very last bit of summer 2012. :P I thought it had been around for a while :P
October 13, 201312 yr I've said it before, and I'll say it again, if she plays her metaphorical cards right, she could become the female version of Frank Turner.
October 13, 201312 yr This is much better than Lighthouse IMO 2012? :lol: Oops :lol: Edited October 13, 201312 yr by Jade
