Blurred Line advocates rape. Which one is worse?

I was joking on the latter bit. Obviously it's worse, but in a bubble where songs have no effect on anything I refer Blurred Lines.

So many amazing songs selling over a million. It has restored my faith in the buying public.

Seven weeks at #2 :lol: How unlucky, what songs was it stuck behind?

Many songs, but it almost beat 'Stay Awake' and 'Loca People', which both turned out to be complete non-#1s :lol: Unlucky M5.

 

Robin Thicke officially slaying all your faves :dance:

A song worthy of 2 videos. the official video isn't that good

 

I wonder what's #1???

"Starships" will be joining that list later this year..... :P (oh wait, you like that song don't you, I think - you may have mentioned it once before!)

Yeah but I know Sak Noel wasn't number one for seven weks Abdul :lol:

Blurred Lines is awful. It's a very polarising chart. I seem to love or hate most of the Top 50.

Blurred Lines - Alright, but way too overplayed for me to appreciate it for ages.

Someone Like You - Meh. Set Fire To The Rain/Skyfall>>>>>>>>>>>

Moves Like Jagger - Still sounding decent.

Somebody That I Used To Know - Aged badly for me :(

I Gotta Feeling - Aged AWFULLY

 

That's made me realise I can rarely get behind the biggest hits of the year since 2010, hopefully this year will be a first where I still love the YE number 1 at the end of the year.

The full list of songs that beat M5 are 'Heart Skips A Beat', 'Stay Awake', 'All About Tonight', 'What Makes You Beautiful', 'No Regrets', 'Loca People' and 'We Found Love'

 

Ignore Jade - I definitely remember Rihanna beating M5

I've had a stab at sales in the OP- I'll refine it tonight so this is version 1- thanks to MW over the weeks!

Interesting that 2012, the biggest year for downloads, didn't provide any of the three biggest sellers.

Hopefully an ALL PHARRELL Top 10 by 2019 with "Not Happy Anymore (Broken Down Part II)" featuring Alicia Keys or something.

I didn't even realise Blurred Lines had overtaken Someone Like You, although Happy will overtake before long.

 

It's crazy how successful it's been, it's not a traditionally hugely melodic song or anything. I knew it would be pretty big the first time I heard it but I didn't expect it to be one of the biggest selling singles EVER! :o

#1 'BLURRED LINES' Robin Thicke feat. T.I. and Pharrell

Well there you go, at the end it all comes down to a previously forgotten one-not-even-a-real-hit-wonder from 2007. Thanks all for contributing to this thread and catch up again the next time this is done! Maybe by then Gotye will have plummeted to #38.

"We Found Love" was released midweek and blocked M5 from #1 again! :lol:

Do you not read the thread in the Chart Vault ? :o :(

So Blurred Lines is the song with the most "View in iTunes" clicks. Robin Thickle is like a dirty old man in a 37 year old's body.
