It amazes me that a phrase like "I know you want" can be criticized so harshly for promoting sexual assault. Where was the Beatles criticism for "Well she just 17 if you know what I mean"?
☯ИИΙΙΚΚ☯ The funny thing is that you're completely right, that's definitely what he is haha. What he does brings in views and he knows it. All these people commenting and saying why does he even do interviews he makes people mad etc just don't get it lol
Keith Gerholt You should watch Channel 4 News' other videos with this interviewer. Look up Robert Downey Jr and Quentin Tarantinos interviews with this guy. Robert walks out on him and Quentin gets extremely pissed. It's hilarious. Makes me wonder why they would even post these videos on here, how embarrassing.
@@JM-tj5qm i think there is a difference between doing whats in the song, which is consensual, and straight up groping someone without consent. What I'm saying is that Pharrell probably meant that he never touched someone with sexual intent or harm
I dont get why Pharrel has to hide the fact that the context of the song is sexual. The fact that its sexual does not make it a bad thing. It is not suppresing women to say "I know you want it". If a girl sang those lines, would men be offended? I doubt it.
It’s because this is a phrase rapists use in retaliation to someone giving signs they don’t want to continue - ‘I have to go home’, ‘I’m not sure’ etc. A man who responds with ‘I know you want it’ and pressures her, isn’t allowing her to consent - it’s forced consent - eg: rape. Hate to break it to all you guys that you’ve likely raped someone
Man this is an amazing interview I love how Pharrell really stuck it out and just got down to discussing things rather then trying to shut down the interviewer. Was enjoyable to see.
I also love how Pharrell takes advantage of trying to give the interviewer positive feedback when trying to explain the question to him instead of negative feedback, because if you don’t pay attention and keep this up, you’ll get in trouble. Don’t do that.
But that’s not the point, The point is not only did he star and a music video that had naked woman to exploit themselves but he also toke part in ripping off marvin Gaye DONT YOU SEE IT?!
He is actually very respectable. He got a lot of publicity for his upfront attitude previously and I think channel 4 wanted to hop onto that. This is journalism, there was nothing personal going on, it is just what the big news was at the time.
@@AramiMedia stupid questions is journalism? Because, he always tries to ask "intelligent" and "profound" questions, and it always backfires. And oh, he always get DESTROYED in each interview lol

@@ameyaes I see what your saying, but in this guy's case, I don't think so. All interviews I saw with him, I felt unconfortable; I always cringe at his attempts of trying to have these deep debates

Ah yes let’s fire the interviewer for asking a question that wondered about by millions of people and reported on in every major news publication in the world
JESUS CHRIST, Pharell was RAZOR SHARP. He was able to READILY separate what might SEEM like a sexist implication of a line he wrote and the thought process of a man who knows the social context he is in, and thus makes a tongue-in-cheek guess that a woman "wants it". I'm completely feminist and I have to say, it's extremely bothersome when leftist/liberal people mistake sexism for contextual interaction. "I know you want it" might be a total shot in the dark, but saying it's sexist or that it promotes sexism is going WAY past the line.
Bob Chipman Yeah, except I felt the need to, so I did. I fucking hate the way your brain works and your parasitic existence needs to go away with all the other archaic ways of thinking.
Pharrell is the epitome of cool. This interviewer is the epitome of a tool. He doesn't even listen to what Pharrell is saying. He just wants to spout random, controversial questions.
Interviewer: So Pharrell told me to ask you what your line on Blurred Lines meant? you know the part about "I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two" TI: It meant exactly what it meant PARTNA!!!! Interviewer: Ok thank you for your time o.O
I think he just likes to ask difficult questions, instead of the usual questions that everyone asks these celebrities. I think it's fun, at least in a situation like this, when the artist actually likes talking about the controversial stuff.
Damn, the times have definitely changed, it's weird seeing a corner of the internet actually defending this song given it's the complete opposite elsewhere. Pharrell even said a few years after this interview that he regrets it
Of course he regrets it, but not because of the line or anything like that. Because of what it got turned into because apparently, very few people actually have fun when they're getting intimate with their partner. Then the whole lawsuit thing with the song, which by the way, the judge got totally wrong because they didn't even follow copyright law guidelines when issuing their verdict, plus mentioning the vibe of the song as similar is completely irrelevant because a vibe cannot be copyrighted. Words, note sequence from strings, vocals, those can be copyrighted. Rhythm section and grooves cannot be copyrighted, yet he lost the lawsuit because the judge found he infringed on copyright due to the rhythm and groove of the song, as well as the vibe. It's extremely fascinating to me that federal judges here in America know very little about laws that surround media entertainment when it comes to music or anticompetitive and downright anticonsumer moves in other entertainment industries, which allow these terrible lawsuits to go in favor of the ones that either have no feasible claim to copyright or companies like Microsoft admitting in internal company emails to 'spending the competition out of the industry', as well as not even weigh all the facts of the case they heard or even acknowledge those facts. At least with the anticompetitive blunders, you can say 'well, that judge definitely got some payola'. When it comes to the constant mistakes on the music side of it, the only reason is incompetence.
Krishnan Guru-Murthy is pathetic, I really would like to have seen Robert Downey Jr stand up to this poser "journalist", the way Pharrell masterfully demonstrated.
It's interesting how many people here think Pharrell did well here because I don't think he did at all. I feel like they were having two different conversations. Krishnan Guru-Murthy was asking him one question and Pharrell was answering a different one that was more convenient. If he doesn't want to address this, that's his prerogative, but don't pretend he addressed this straight up and that it was some kind of 'win'.As soon as you're refusing to acknowledge the difference between 'I know you want it' in a sexual situation and when selling a car, you're not interested in a serious conversation IMO. Or when you're trying to claim the topless women in the video are being objectified. Just OWN IT. These mind games he attempts to play are nonsensical.
Even though Pharrell claims to not have touched the models, the way he was looking at them in certain scenes is very suggestive. "I know you want it" means many things but 90% of the meaning is the context and body language. Also it doesnt matter who wrote what, at the end, all participated in this songs production and have to agree to what they're singing about.
I loved how Pharrel made fun of the interviewer. Like seriously guys, why do you still have that horrible interviewer? he give to you a bad image of your show
Let’s admit it , we or on Pharrell side because we hate the interviewer and not because of his argument.. I don’t like the interviewer at all but he had a point here.

I think Pharrell was well within his rights to defend himself given their implication that his song was promoting misogyny and sexual assault. He did pretty well too.
Another song ruined by the PC brigade, and the fact that Pharrell is so calm just proves that there's nothing disturbing about the song. Usually, liars will resort to aggressive statements if they're to convince someone.
I'm certainly No music .." Guru "...or anything like that , but are people REALLY making a Big Deal about the lyrics to THIS song..???? WTH..??? Of ALL the vulgar , violent and incredibly explicit lyrics out there in Today's Mainstream Music....... Blurred Lines is Getting BOMBARDED..??? Just seems Really STUPID to pick THIS song to Attack , when there are song's that have lyrics 100% MORE OFFENSIVE...?!?..... Oh well , ....JMO.
I was going to say that Mr Guru-Murthy needs to work a lot more before an interview, but it's nonsense. There is no amount of preparation that is ever going to help this journalist in a war of words with such talented and smart artists. They can see right through him, they are 3 steps ahead at all times, they dismantle his ill-advised line of questioning and set the record straight. Only way out of this while keeping face is to pretend it was done on purpose to make the artist look awesome. It sure does.
Pharell be like "this song ain't suggestive" Song: "I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two" Pharell " yeah what you talking about that ain't sexual it's about a car dealer"
i feel like this guy expected to shame pharrell for his lyrics and for him to be the big guy but he never prepares for the interviewee to actually fight back which is just idiotic
I feel like you either "liked" this video because you liked to see Pharell stick to his guns and talk back to a pompous interviewer or you "disliked it" because you hate the pompous interviewer.
It’s such a shame that a brilliant song was ripped into by many idiotic people and these days you have songs like ‘WAP’ and ‘Need To Know’ for example, that have similar lyrics but are not criticised. I don’t see anything wrong with any of these songs. They are all written innocently.
Pharrell, how foolish you sound when you bring up a car salesman! And then to go completely outside the context of the song itself and the interviewer's questions. And then to try to distance yourself from the song by saying he didn't write this line or that line - he really sounds so smarmy and foolish. After watching this (and after seeing him blatantly lie in his deposition on the lawsuit over Blurred LInes) I have ZERO use for him.
"I know you want it" But the problem is that I can never know if I really know, I can only think I know. So suppose "I think you want it" would be more accurate and more acceptable, but music isn't about being accurate.
I didn't have a problem with the video but I was questioning the "blurred lines" and how u could be like there isn't a line between what is concent. But if he didn't intend it to be seen like that then I won't see it loek that
I understand what Farrell says. Women have a sexual desire just like men and just like any other human being. However, the language in the lyrics is ambiguous and did not deliver the message they meant to send. The problem is that Farrell, Thicke & the other one, don't remember his name, sorry, are not men enough to admit their mistake. And this happens very often, men think that when women say no, they are just faking it.. Men think that women do want them but they're just playing games and that when most rapes happen.
The reporters going the context, the context! I didn't like the song but pharrel wrote it, he knows the context, if he said it doesn't have rapey connotations then it doesn't
Oh, please. The interviewer enjoyed every minute of the video. I am a female and I loved it too. I guess nakedness is ok in some circumstances but not ok in others.
Just pointing out, this was a big issue and he will have had PR people coaching him day and night about exactly the right thing to say for every imaginable question. (What you think is completely up to you, but that should be taken into account methinks :/)

Pharell be like "this song ain't suggestive"
Song: "I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two"
Pharell " yeah what you talking about that ain't sexual it's about a car dealer"
I cracked up laughing at 4:00
i feel like this guy expected to shame pharrell for his lyrics and for him to be the big guy but he never prepares for the interviewee to actually fight back which is just idiotic
Krishnan ain't got shit and he knows he just fishing in dark trying to get Pharrel to slip up but Pharrel is too smart for Krishnan
I feel like you either "liked" this video because you liked to see Pharell stick to his guns and talk back to a pompous interviewer or you "disliked it" because you hate the pompous interviewer.
lol this interviewer just keep grasping at anything to push his agenda of controversy. He does not even listen to what the other person has to say.
If he doesn't work Channel 4, he wouldn't ask those silly questions.
It’s such a shame that a brilliant song was ripped into by many idiotic people and these days you have songs like ‘WAP’ and ‘Need To Know’ for example, that have similar lyrics but are not criticised. I don’t see anything wrong with any of these songs. They are all written innocently.
Written innocently🤣🤣
Williams played this guy phenomenally, but realistically, It was a straight rip of Marvin Gaye's song with the lyrics twisted around.
He is really intelligent, I would have said the same thing. He did so many great examples, I loved it!!!!
Man, this Pharrell is one cool cat. Like this dude.
Pharrell, how foolish you sound when you bring up a car salesman! And then to go completely outside the context of the song itself and the interviewer's questions. And then to try to distance yourself from the song by saying he didn't write this line or that line - he really sounds so smarmy and foolish. After watching this (and after seeing him blatantly lie in his deposition on the lawsuit over Blurred LInes) I have ZERO use for him.
You gotta admire how chill he was throughout what could only be considered an irritating AF line of questioning! He even called him "sir"!
Its like a conversation on taddle tayling on the school yard XD
Funny how Pharrell has since admitted he was wrong
He understands how the song made men believe that they were sexually entitled.
"I know you want it" But the problem is that I can never know if I really know, I can only think I know. So suppose "I think you want it" would be more accurate and more acceptable, but music isn't about being accurate.
This is like waving a gun around threateningly and then saying "hey, did I say I was gonna shoot you?"
4:04 Laughed my ass off xD
Pharell here presumes that women can't assault anyone. His reference to good women is also off too. Disappointing
I’ve never been a big fan of his music but damn, Pharrell is a great dude.
I personally like the song. It's just too bad that they didn't make arrangements beforehand with the Gaye family to license the music.
I didn't have a problem with the video but I was questioning the "blurred lines" and how u could be like there isn't a line between what is concent. But if he didn't intend it to be seen like that then I won't see it loek that
I understand what Farrell says. Women have a sexual desire just like men and just like any other human being. However, the language in the lyrics is ambiguous and did not deliver the message they meant to send. The problem is that Farrell, Thicke & the other one, don't remember his name, sorry, are not men enough to admit their mistake. And this happens very often, men think that when women say no, they are just faking it.. Men think that women do want them but they're just playing games and that when most rapes happen.
Lol, thry disabled the comments and the ratings from the RDJ interview video.
The reporters going the context, the context! I didn't like the song but pharrel wrote it, he knows the context, if he said it doesn't have rapey connotations then it doesn't
Pharrell just said "WHOOOO" entire song and got the controversy side 😂😂
Oh, please. The interviewer enjoyed every minute of the video. I am a female and I loved it too. I guess nakedness is ok in some circumstances but not ok in others.
I'm with Pharell on this one.
The way the interviewer twitches lol. You can tell his leg shaking is intensifying.
after listening to this .i totally love pharrell
Just pointing out, this was a big issue and he will have had PR people coaching him day and night about exactly the right thing to say for every imaginable question.
(What you think is completely up to you, but that should be taken into account methinks :/)
