Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" controversy has gotten cloudier. Thicke confessed he was high on drugs and alcohol when the hit song he insists is not a rip-off of Marvin Gaye's "Got to Give It Up" was written, court depositions now obtained by The Hollywood Reporter show.
"I was high on Vicodin and alcohol when I showed up at the studio, recollection is when we made the song. … I wanted to be more involved than I actually was by the time, nine months later, it became a huge hit and I wanted credit," he continued, backtracking on previous statements.
Thicke initially stated to GQ magazine in May 2013, "Pharrell and I were in the studio and I told him that one of my favorite songs of all time was Marvin Gaye's 'Got to Give It Up.'
I was like 'Damn, we should make something like that, something with that groove.' Then he started playing a little something and we literally wrote the song in about a half hour and recorded it."Robin is due in court February of 2015.
