Robin Thicke's floorfilling pop song Blurred Lines has reached a massive milestone: it's officially the Britain's most downloaded music single.
The song features additional vocals from TI and Pharrell Williams, the latter of whom produced the song and co-wrote it with Thicke and TI. It was infmaously performed live with Myley Cyrus twerking to the rhythm.
So far, the track has sold 1.54m copies, just overtaking Adele's Someone Like You (1.53m).
Commenting on the success, Thicke said: "I'm so honoured, the success of Blurred Lines is a dream come true."
The song's notoriously racy lyrics and explicit music video containing a wealth of topless girls dancing around a fully clothed Thicke brought the tune controversy, as did allegations that it was ripped off from Marvin Gaye's Got to Give it Up. Blurred Lines was banned by some universities in the UK.
