It's funny because Robin Thicke is so insufferable:

On Thursday, Marvin Gaye’s family won their copyright suit against Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams after a jury ruled that their 2013 hit “Blurred Lines” (also featuring T.I.) was too similar to Marvin Gaye’s 1977 hit “Got to Give it Up.” The family was awarded over $7.3 million — a record high judgment for this sort of suit — and is in the process of seeking an injunction to halt sales of the song, which will give them bargaining power regarding future royalties.

And it turns out that “Blurred Lines” isn’t the only song the family has suspicions about. “I’m not going to lie. I do think they sound alike,” Marvin Gaye’s daughter Nona told ET, referring to the likenesses between Pharell’s smash hit “Happy” and Gaye’s “Ain’t That Peculiar.” However, for now, they aren’t planning to pursue legal action. “We’re not in that space,” added Marvin’s ex-wife Janis Gaye. “We’re just in the moment today and we’re satisfied.”

“Right now, I feel free,” Nona Gaye told reporters, according to the AP. “Free from … Pharrell Williams and Robin Thicke’s chains and what they tried to keep on us and the lies that were told.”

Don't mess with Nona Gaye.

A lot of people quoted in articles about the verdict in that case about Blurred Lines were stunned the verdict went the way it did. Seems likely that the appeal process will take care of any actual monetary reward.
