Marvin Gaye Sales Up 246% After 'Blurred Lines' Trial

  Yes Marvin Gaye receives additional good news after sticky fingers Robin Thicke  and Pharell try to rip the late soul singer hard work.

Billboard reports - Marvin Gaye, Number 1's - No. 175 -- No doubt due to publicity generated by the March 10 verdict in the "Blurred Lines"/ "Got To Give It Up" trial, this 2009 greatest hits album debuts on the list with 4,000 units. Of that, 54 percent of its points were earned from track equivalent albums, fueled by sales of the song "Got To Give It Up (Pt. 1)." The cut sold 10,000 downloads for the week -- its largest digital sales week ever. It increased by 246 percent and re-enters at No. 18 on R&B Digital Songs. On the Billboard 200, the Number 1's album is Gaye's first new entry in over a decade, when The Very Best of Marvin Gaye bowed on the list dated Aug. 4, 2001.
