Wrong Article Title.
[edit]This article is about an album. Therefore, this article should be called Blurred Lines, while the song solicited from this album should be Blurred Lines (song), not the main point of interest. You people are breaking the natural order of Wikipedia here!

- The natural order is changing. Now ...Baby One More Time is about the song and not the album. Apparently the song "Blurred Lines" is the primary topic. Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 04:15, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

should this song be put in Category:Songs that sound like Got to Give It Up or Category:Songs that sound like Long Tall Glasses?
[edit]- Got to Give It Up (Youtube)
- Long Tall Glasses (redlinked at the time of this post]] from Just a Boy (Youtube)
- Emotional Rescue (song) seems to borrowed an element or two (Youtube]--thermographic version)
- maybe even Don't Stop 'til You Get Enough (Youtube)

- Maybe even Lisa Moorish cover of George Michaels (a cooler version though less related).174.137.237.65 (talk) 19:16, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
- If you can find a reliable source comparing it other songs it might be worth adding to the article. Siuenti (talk) 19:49, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah, you're right. Btw, another possibility, Donald Fagan's New Frontier.
Here is some stuff that might be useful.- USA Today.com sez
But Lines' light heart lies in breezier, funkier fare such as the titular smash, modeled after Gaye's Got to Give It Up, and Thicke's follow-up single Give It 2 U, which features Kendrick Lamar. And Thicke isn't being ironic when he attributes that vibe to his experience as a family man. - Billboard.com sez
"Pharrell and I were in the studio making a couple records, and then on the third day I told him I wanted to do something kinda like Marvin Gaye's 'Got To Give It Up,' that kind of feel 'cause it's one of my favorite songs of all time. So he started messing with some drums and then he started going 'Hey, hey hey..' and about an hour and a half later we had the whole record finished."
I might come up with more stuff.174.137.237.65 (talk) 19:12, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Move?
[edit]- The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the proposal was not moved. --BDD (talk) 22:54, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
- Blurred Lines (album) → Blurred Lines – Use album name as main name. Silvergoat (talk) 12:07, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
Moved from speedy rename
[edit]- Talk:Blurred Lines (song) RM decided no primary. In ictu oculi (talk) 15:42, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
- Actually, three RMs have upheld the song as primary. --BDD (talk) 23:46, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
- Strong oppose speedy rename this is clearly not the primary topic. -- 70.24.249.39 (talk) 21:52, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
Survey
[edit]- Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with
*'''Support'''
or*'''Oppose'''
, then sign your comment with~~~~
. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's policy on article titles.
- Oppose I reiterate my stance from the RMTR. I think if anything, the song and associated video would be the primary topic, not the album. And if it's not the song, then the album should not be the prime target. -- 70.24.249.39 (talk) 12:26, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose Moved unilaterally despite consensus not to move in three different requests. For two articles, a disambiguation page is unnecessary. Return to as things were:
- Blurred Lines (song) → Blurred Lines with a hat note to the album. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 14:18, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose. The proposer moved Blurred Lines → Blurred Lines (song) without discussion and against consensus. Return Blurred Lines (song) → Blurred Lines and leave this current title as is. Zarcadia (talk) 22:50, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose. Massive number of hits for the song, clear primary topic. bd2412 T 18:16, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
Discussion
[edit]- Any additional comments:
- Blurred Lines (song) has been moved back to Blurred Lines and subsequently move-protected. Whack! --BDD (talk) 23:47, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
