Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" is an unkillable beast that wiped every other potential air to the song of the summer throne off the face of the Earth with little more than a "Hey hey hey!" (and I, for one, welcome our new Canadian-American overlord). It has sat at the number one spot one Billboard's Hot 100 chart for 12 weeks now, putting it in the rarefied air of "Yeah!", "Lose Yourself", "Smooth" and (I can't believe I'm typing this) "Boom Boom Pow."

Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" is basically inescapable to any radio listener. Yesterday, Billboard reported that in the last week, the track surpassed Mariah Carey's "We Belong Together" as the song with the largest radio audience in tracking history.

As with all things in life, the #NewRules don't apply to everybody. That's what Billboard editorial director Bill Werde said on Twitter, anyway. Lady Gaga's in-app sales will count toward her ARTPOP sales total unlike Jay-Z, whose Magna Carta Holy Grail was released via a free app and paid for by Samsung.
