Robin Thicke Discusses His Unrated Video

05/22/2013
. (Radio.com) Robin Thicke is known for his soulful music but this time around it's his music video that's making headlines. The unrated version of "Blurred Lines," which Thicke premiered April, features several women sans clothing. YouTube quickly banned the naked clip, but not before it racked up more than one million hits.

"We just had a great feeling about the song," Thicke told Carson Daly. "I made it last summer. I mean, I had it for about eight or nine months and Jimmy Iovine liked it, but nobody was really jumping all around the place for it."

"And then we shot the video and Jimmy called me seven seconds into the video and he said, 'This is a smash! This video is amazing!'"

"We had always planned on making an unrated [version], we like to call it. Not X, it's just unrated," he said. "So what we would do is shoot a segment with the girls dressed and then they would take their clothes off [and] we'd shoot the same shot." more on this story
