Queens of the Stone Age have covered 'Blurred Lines' by Robin Thicke for a BBC Radio One Live Lounge. Watch footage of their performance below.

Josh Homme and co. have put a quite a fitting California desert spin on the No.1 single, using bottles of pills instead of maracas and adding a brilliant country and western rap.

This week, Queens of the Stone Age's seventh LP Like Clockwork was beaten by Settle by Disclosure to the the top of the UK album charts. The dance duo outsold QOTSA by just 7,000 copies.

Meanwhile, Robin Thicke held on to the UK No.1 single spot with 'Blurred Lines' featuring Pharrell and T.I. - holding off competition from 'La La La' by Naughty Boy and Daft Punk's summer smash 'Get Lucky'.
