Oh, THAT song is Robin Thicke?

I honestly had no idea who Robin Thicke was or what song he sang until there was a slate article about whether or not it's rapey and I finally put two and two together. He's the "what rhymes with hug me" guy.

 

That song is terrible. At best it's gimmicky.

    YOU TAKE THAT BACK RIGHT NOW.

  • WHAT. That song is awesome. It reminds me of the summer JT's Sexy Back came out.

    ETA and it kind of reminds me of a JT song too.

    Sexy Back is kind of a weird song too. It's not bad per say, just not that... listenable. Plus... it's not like sexy ever really left?

     He's a good looking guy, and that's fine, and he sings better than Adam Levine. I'm trying to think of a good female comparison: someone who is a decent singer and attractive but whose music is quite... stupid. I'm not coming up with anything except perhaps Selena Gomez, but I'm not convinced she has much of a voice hiding under all those vocal effects.

  • I'm not even usually a fan of any newer music nowadays, but I just cant.help.myself.  The song has forced me to love it regardless! It's so damn catchy! I didn't know what it was until someone brought it up on here in regards to people thinking it was rapey, so I had to go see for myself.  It has literally been stuck in my head since then...like a week...straight!  ((And no it is NOT rapey))

    Also, I'll let Robin Thicke liberate me all he wants...guy is hot to look at.  Maybe not so much to talk to, but that's not necessary anyway ;)

    Haters gonna hate!

    I can't believe you just said Sexy Back is not that listenable. And then you compared the sexual stylings of Robin Thicke to Selena F'ucking Gomez?

    Oh, you're done, bro.

    DONE! 

    I think we figured out a long time ago you and I have extremely different musical tastes. I'm not even a pop music snob per say. But you definitely seem to enjoy the poppiest of the pop.

    It just is.

    It will still be listened to in 10 years.  Maybe even 20.

  • LD, maybe you need to hear it a few more times. After a few listens, I was like "I guess I'm coming around to this song..." and now I'm all "sweet Jesus I love this song!!!1!!"

    It even says my least favorite word in it and I still like it.

  • Seriously though, I re-listened to The Arcade Fire's The Suburbs this weekend, and HOLY SHEET, that is good music. Yeah, the guy is pretty ugly, but the music is just... braingasm. They're one of the few bands I would shell out a C-Note for. Neon Bible is insanegood too.

    Daft Punk's Get Lucky is a great example of great pop music. It's catchy as hell, but there's still a lot of great stuff going on there.

    I love Get Lucky pretty hard. In fact, I'm listening to it right now. The Robin Thicke song? Meh.

    It's because you're both from Minnesota. It cuts you deep.

    It's true. My jazz band's director played trumpet as a studio musician for a couple of Prince's albums. Prince is a weird man, but a truly gifted musician.

    I'm not from MN, but I do love that state. Except the mass amounts of snow and coldass winter.

    LOL at the idea that Get Lucky is so much better musically than Blurred Lines considering Pharrell co-wrote and performed on both of them.  They both are what they are, catchy summer tunes meant to sell millions of singles and no more.

    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

    They're both poppy, funk-inspired songs featuring Pharell. Making comparisons seems apt. I cited it as an example of a poppy song I do enjoy a lot.

    Oh you see, we didn't even know what sexy we were missing until JT brought it BACK. He is that good.

  • Earlier I had no idea who this was. Someone posted his pic and I believe I said that he is not hot, but a nice looking boy. I had no idea he was a singer until now. I have learned so much today.
