Robin Thicke: I was high, drunk every time I did an interview

VIDEO: Thicke says high and drunk making Blurred Lines
Singer Robin Thicke legal strategy seems to be his sorry state.

Forget ''Blurred Lines.'' ''Blurred life'' may be more appropriate.

According to singer Robin Thicke, the summer of 2013 was a bit of a blur.

In a deposition transcript made public Monday, Thicke told lawyers he would start every day with a Vicodin and a bottle of vodka -- drinking it before and during his interviews.

Being high and drunk appears to be Thicke's defense in a high-stakes lawsuit.

The suit filed by Marvin Gaye's family accuses Thicke and two others of illegally ripping off Gaye's "Got To Give It Up."

In interviews last summer, Thicke said he wanted to do a song similar to the Marvin Gaye hit, but he now says he was lying in those interviews -- blaming the drugs and alcohol.
