Blurred Lines - Robin Thicke Vs Marvin Gaye 

That's, actually a fabulous mix with the 2 tunes!! 👏👏👏👏🥂🥂🥂🥂

Blurred lines is a very appropiate title for the song, because the line is blurred between where Marvin Gaye stops, and Robin Thicke begins!

The whole main baseline, tempo, feel and ambience of the song was stolen. Justice was served.

My father when he heard that song he liked it so much!! And he told me "This song reminds me of an old song! But I don't remember what song!" And one day he said "I think it was Marvin Gaye or someone else... I am not sure... But it really sounds like an old song that I used to hear back in the days" Then I watched on the news the lawsuit betweet Marvin Gaye family and Robin Thicke... I told my father that "you know that song you liked? They are being sued because they stole it from Marvin Gaye!" And My dad was like "See! That's why I liked the song! It sounded like an old song!" And We live in The Democratic Republic Of Congo... So if someone from the DRC recognised the song, I don't understand how they thought they could just release the song IN THE USA and enjoy without any concerns? with peace...? duh?

It's official... Pharrel and Robin Thicke have been sued for copyright infringement and Marvin gets $7.3 million!

That's why I liked blurred lines so much. Got to give it up is one of my favorite songs that I listen to regularly.

I was watching CNN and they were commenting on the Robin Thicke song blurred lines. When I first heard the rift of that song, the first I said was"that's Marvin Gaye's song got to give it up." Anyone with good hearing knows Robin Thicke and company "Stole" that song from Marvin Gaye. Enough said

Pharrell Williams produced the song - MADE THE DAMN BEAT and Robin took the fall 😂😂😂

How can people deny the similarities between the two songs!!!

Its like listening to a 6 minute version of Marvin's song. I could not tell when one song ended and another began.

Yes i hear the sample. They knew they shudda cleared that sample first. It wudda cost less than 7.3 million.

The dances from soul train are hilarious haha

Thicke even said that when they were writing and recording this album they were listening to a lot of Marvin Gaye. You can totally her the similarities.

The arrangement is similar, which is what is the base of the copyright. Tempo almost matches exactly. Lyrics are their own. Miss me some SOUL TRAIN!

everybody is over here arguing and im over here shaking my ass

They heard Marvin's song so much when they were little. It shows...lol

Do I secretly like Blurred Lines or is it just the brilliance of the mixed-in OG that suddenly makes it work for me?

The fact that the Pharell legal team fought to NOT have the songs heard by the jury, says all you need to know: They KNEW that it's the same song w/ a different spin to it :) #payUp

What people dont realize is humanity is just a giant tree. There would be no Robin without people like Marvin, no Einstein without Pythagoras, yada yada. Just love this crazy, creative and magical family tree we all share, and ignore those crazy cousins no one wants to claim.

The other video I watched, I didn't think they sounded alike at ALL. I definitely hear it now. Thank you!

its all fooking good music remix enjoyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Cornelius !!!!? Ahh yeah . I remember watching .. miss shows like this

Absolutely fantastic illustration. "Musicians" now just lack creativity and steal from Creative Artists. Happens all the time. Glad it's finally getting recognized.

The similarities weren't that blurry after all. A Los Angeles jury found Tuesday that Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams copied Marvin Gaye’s 1977 hit “Got to Give It Up” when they wrote and recorded their hit song “Blurred Lines.” He also copied "After the dance" from Marvin Gaye and called it "Love after War.' It is so blatant, Stevie Wonder could see it.

So sorry gotta give it up 7 3 million .

Fantastic soul train clip! 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻

Keep on Dancing

This is the greatest collaboration of All Time!!

BOTH ARE AMAZING PERIOD

Check out those Afro hairstyles !! Very 1970's. Having heard the Marvin Gaye song and comparing to the Robin Thicke version, it is not difficult to conclude that they are virtually the same. The rhythm and beat are equally catchy, take away, or add a different set of lyrics and it is practically identical !!

Wow😮. I’m glad someone put this together. 😳

La música y los instrumentos llegaron desde muy lejos, hay que darles su RECONOCIMIENTO.👏🏻

I know this is long over but there’s a huge difference between copywriting and being inspired by. This was clearly not copyright, the chords used sound different there’s a couple of similarities like tempo and small progression of notes but different in so many ways

I definitely hear it...why would people deny it anyways, what do they gain from lying and defending Thicke?

Thank you so much sir for your dedication!! I remember singing to Marvin’s song when I was a tiny tot

The first time I heard blurred lines I immediately thought of Marvin, they should have offered the family a settlement and crushed the lawsuit instead of course, greed.

Ask yourself -has Thicke been able to write any songs since "Blurred Lines" that has been able to stay at the top of the charts? I think the answer speaks for its self.

Don, Marvin, Soul Train Dancers and Robin. It sounds and feels good because they all fix well. Trust, the dearly departed are chillin'

Mr. Williams...i initially wanted to listen to the similarities of the two songs...it resulted in my entire family getting up and dancing all over the house lol...even my 1yr old lol! Great Mix bruh!!! SALUTE!!!

Oh yaaaa. I see it now. Marvin needs some credit. Thicke and Farrell took it to another level and I luv them for it though.

Great remix

Gayes filing an injunction, to stop sales of Blurred Lines--They don't want Pharrell to get any more money from the song until he agrees to share future royalties with the Gayes--as it should be

I mean, they could've sampled it, and everything would be okay.

WOW!!!! You put this out in August of 2013

In my Jamaican Voice 7.3 Million🤯

I think artist should be the first one to get it. If you copy other people work share the profits with the creator of the original work or the family members who are left behind. Marvin Gaye is gone may his soul rest in peace however he is not gone from the memories of his children. Thanks to the Gaye family who stood up for their rights and rights of all survivors of great artist.

Two for his heels 💫

Oh no , it the exact song

damn.....still....blurred lines sounds catchy....

I do not see comparison ... well is all about a nice beat ...which I prefer Robin Thicke one! Blurred Lines is super song and really for new generation!! I love it!!

It’s so similar actually sounds like they sampled the original

The fact that you can play them simultaneously and it sounds like it’s own original song roves that Thicke’s guilt of plagiarism.

Point is for you young folks that don't know what the hell ya'll are talking about. (saying it does not sound anything familiar) Robin Thicke and Pharrell would have NEVER had the blueprint to make "Blurred lines" had it not been for "Got to give it up". There is no way you can say these songs don't sound very similar. Same instruments, same beat, singing in falsetto as Marvin did….come on now. Xeroxed…pay up! 7 million baby….bloop!

Drums melodies and music chords melodies had some similarities , but the vocal and lyrics melodies are not the same at all , I do believe guilty of copyright infringement , 50 percent . Blurred lines is one of my favorite song as of todays music . It sounds like they used Marvin Gaye song and change the lyrics and recorded it with modern versions .

0:10 Errybody get up!

Marvin Gaye is the master!

The minute I heard blurred lines, I thought, " This is Marvin Gaye, he stole it"

COOL!!!

one wordsmith to anotha the irony of the title my brotha! This is one of the best things I've ever seen on youtube thank you

MR. WILLIAMS!!!!! YOOO, MY MAN!!!! THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!! I LOVE IT,,,FANTASTIC JOB....!!! :)

Marvin would sho nuff love it. Get down and chillax. Marvin was ruff just like that too.

Papple... if u can't tell these two songs are similar, then go listens to got to give it up by Marvin Gaye and you'll see it's the same exact tune.

The point of why people get mad at songs like robin thicke copying the tempo is that they are lazy making music, meaning a song like this reminds you of a similar song that someone already produced.

I don't think artists should be constrained to not even have a similar style song to someone who came before...all music is built upon what came before- people hearing something and modifying it and making it their own. If we copyright every little aspect of every song, nothing new can be created. That said, this mashup sounds excellent, especially the beginning.

I’d class this one as “inspiration from” where Robin would have given a nod to Marvin in an interview I don’t believe MG would have pursued a 7.3M$ lawsuit

Wow they really are basically the same

There are 1000s and 1000s of songs that can be matched by the drum beats. Outside of that the two songs are nothing alike...

Dude, you threw me for a loop! I thought I was going to hear a mashup, then saw the Soul Train Clip and thought I was about to see the dancers jam to "Get Down" (One of my faves) by Curtis Mayfield as I occasionally view the clip with him singing as they dance to it. I was disappointed....but was happy again after looking at the dancers dancing to this dubbed mashup. NICE JOB!

Wow. Thanks for this.

I laugh at all the younger folks on here saying that Thicke and Pharrell didn't steal this song and that Gaye's family is greedy. I dare say that if thirty years from now, if someone stole some "artist" of today's music, that family would sue. Of course, that is not likely to happen as there has been little original since the dawn of rap and hip hop. It is an entire genre created on theft, using elementary profanity-laced poetry.

I just played this to my son and he didn't even realise it was two songs playing at the same time. He thought it was just one song. Anyone who thinks Thicke and Williams didn't plaguarise Gayes song is just Tone deaf.

Love love love this video!

i prefer this version anyway.

I think that Robin Thicke, Pharrell Williams, and T. I. Should have got in touch with Marvin Gayle’s family and ask for permission to use some of the music from Marvin Gaye’s song. Or just do a different song. I’m sure if they had did either thing, it wouldn’t have cost them $7.3. How could they not know that “Got To Give It Up “ and “ Blurred Lines “ sound so much alike.

You can use the damn song but you have to pay for it I hear the similarities. Obviously, but they still need to pay for using it.

I don't see how people keep saying that Blurred Lines is copying Got to give it up. Even musicians and songwriters that are my favorites and I really respect say that believe it is. Yes its a melodic beat. That makes it a style. But the beat is different. And the tune is different. Cowbell can't be copyrighted. And speeding up Blurred Lines music video and playing with the other, is a disingenuous except to say that they or totally copying. Saying that they are copying is like saying is like saying every song has to have it's own particular style style. Boy mainstream radio today would really have a problem having. Everything using the same sound.

dang even stole the Heys

Cada que escucho una canción siempre busco su historia, soy coleccionista de discos de acetato.

So let me get this straight...2 songs have 4:4 timing and similar tempo. And the Robin Thicke song is sped up.

It’s clearly the same, unlike this whole Katy perry dark horse nonsense

3:52 Baby, can you breed a cactus from Jamaica?

I mean it's soooo similar lol

They should have done right by marvine from jump...but this blend is lit!

PHARELL WILLIAMS DID THE COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT!!! He knew it was Marvin Gaye's damn song. Then brought in T.I. & Robin Thicke with their vocals. I'm GLAD MARVIN GAYE CHILDREN WON THE LAWSUIT!!! Actually thst $7.4 Mill verdict isn't enough. HELL I wish they could collect ALL $17Mill from every CD sold since it was their Dad's music

#EverybodyGetSued.

Very similar IMHO

Excelent...

Pharell and Thicke stole the song. They got caught...and now pay the penalty and the shame for copyright infringement. R.I.P. Marvin.

Hope can you not hear the differences? I don't get it. But then again the people who say it's the same thing also have no inner monolog, can't visualize an apple, etc.

damn, the exact same lyrics, beat, chorus and notes *disappointed*

Hahaha I dance like this and was born in the 90s

So many tone deaf people here..

na boa, me distraí com a dança e nem prestei atenção na música!

It's sounds so different lol. When you add in blurred lines it still sounds different.

The "hey hey hey" is a signature element of Blurred Lines NOT present in the Gaye song. Nor several other elements such as the vocal harmonies and mixing. It's unbelievable that people think that the "owners" of a song made 40 years ago deserve millions of dollars royalties from a present day song that has a similar grove. Really sad for music and art.

They even left in the "WOOH!" people shout throughout the song. How tacky is Robin Thicke lol... and I also love how people said miley cyrus was defiling his purity on stage LOL!

Why is it so hard for people to recognize they sampled it and stole it...has to be mostly kids who are not familiar with the tune

so the argument: I invented this song therefore I now own this tune, this tempo, this concept basically forever.

Why did Robin Thicke think he could get away with stealing this song????? It's SO OBVIOUS it's insane. Same goes for scrawny butt Marley who thinks that she invented twerking.

exact same song.....time to pay up
