Charlies Wilson said they were not going for one particular song with "Oops Upside Your Head" but the feel and vibe of that era.

That's pretty much what Thicke & Pharrell are saying with "Blurred Lines".

But people are citing that one particular Marvin song because of the similar overall rhythm (which really is not even close to Marvin's if folks really, REALLY listen to both songs) and background "ohhhs & ahhhs".

FYI: I'm the worst kind when it comes to "debates" such as these because of an over powering objective rationality which trumps blind and obedient loyalty.
