      > “When I was about 40, that’s when ‘Get Lucky,’ ‘Blurred Lines,’ ‘Happy’, all of that was the same year,” the 51-year-old multihyphenate recalls regarding his collaborations with Daft Punk and Robin Thicke, respectively. “And these were all songs that were more commissions than they were just like, I woke up one day and decided I’m going to write about X, Y and Z.”

      > “It was only until you were out of ideas and you asked yourself a rhetorical question and you came back with a sarcastic answer. And that’s what ‘Happy’ was,” Williams said. “How do you make a song about a person that’s so happy that nothing can bring them down? And I sarcastically answered it and put music to it, and that sarcasm became the song. And that broke me.”

      He actually wrote an early version of the hook for a collaboration with Scott Weiland of all people.

      It’s like when OutKast made hey ya’ll but the lyrics were actually really sad. Music is weird like that.

      The song is literally if you’re happy and you know clap your hands

      I have seen such an uptick in Pharrell interview articles about random shit in the past few months. No questions about Diddy in all these fluff articles though. Pharrell’s PR out here workin!

      I will never forgive the Grammys for giving whatever that song was the Best Pop Solo award instead of Chandelier 💀

      My last time watching, lame ol’ days
