Me and Astley

Together forever and never to part...

Samimista · Apr 7, 2016

I wish Rick Rolling was still popular. I do it often to people, lol.

Will give this a listen shortly.

TheGeniusArcana · Apr 7, 2016

I'm almost disappointed that op didn't just Rick roll everyone.

Herbs · Apr 7, 2016

You can't fool me, OP.

He looks a lot better than i was expecting him to look. How old is he?

Was thinking the same thing. Apparently he is 50.

Nice try bub

Jokes aside, this actually sounds really good. Pretty good on Astley for still being at it.

This might have been the only time in my life I've clicked on a link and actually wanted it to be the song. I feel cheated in some way.

BearPawB · Apr 7, 2016

It is bad religious music, but he can still sing

Walpurgis · Apr 7, 2016

Wow. I thought this guy was dead for some reason. That Rick roll video looks so old.

Karak · Apr 7, 2016

Dude looks straight up good and a bit like that Wahlberg on Bluebloods lol

sunshine and gasoline · Apr 7, 2016

Not really my type of song but it certainly isn't bad.

Cyan · Apr 7, 2016

For fuck's sake Astley, this was your big chance and you blew it.

It's not the same now that youtube plays ads before videos load.

Davilmar · Apr 7, 2016

Not a bad song by any means. He has a decent voice, and the production values are serviceable. There's just nothing going for this song, and his personal legend doesn't help him here.

MLCodest · Apr 7, 2016

He has a really good voice. Don't particularly like the song, but his singing is very good.

telasoman · Apr 7, 2016

I like it. I hope it jump starts his career again.

triplestation · Apr 7, 2016

hell yeah, sounds great

Wag · Apr 7, 2016

Rick stole it from Craig Robinson.

Sectorseven · Apr 7, 2016

Looks like Russell Crowe in that picture.

B33 · Apr 7, 2016

The Internet is weird.

I understand that reference and I commend you for it.

antonz · Apr 7, 2016

Not really my style but he can still deliver. He would have been a better choice for Spectre than Sam Smith lol

Squalor · Apr 7, 2016

Should have released on April 1.

Spiritwalker · Apr 7, 2016

His voice is still great. I like it.

Pinko Marx · Apr 7, 2016

Not a terrible song at all. Not really the kind of song to go viral, or make any big waves beyond the name recognition. But I dig it.

Alienous · Apr 7, 2016

His singing is awful.

It alternates between "This sounds like a slick James Bond theme" to "What is he doing?".

I think he sounds great.

SalvaPot · Apr 7, 2016

Still got it.

But it doesn't beat his 2008 performance.

mikezilla2 · Apr 7, 2016

old ash

heck seems like a sleeper hit tho

He sounds like he bit his tongue.

lucebuce12 · Apr 7, 2016

Don't think this song will ever be that big of a hit in the charts but damn, it's a pretty nice song.

Cindres · Apr 7, 2016

Actually don't think that's songs too bad...

And yeah he;'s looking pretty good these days.

Seemed like a rare opportunity to get away with this, I agree.

Yeah I agree. It's a nice song and a great performance. But nothing that really sticks out as being memorable.

Jharp · Apr 7, 2016

I'm surprised people in here didn't like it. I was pretty blown away by it. Bad ass gospel sound from the Rick man. I'd buy an album full of tracks that sound like this.

liliththepale · Apr 7, 2016

I like it a lot! Sounds a bit better at 1.25 speed though.

If by get away you mean fool people, yes. If you mean escape a ban, nope!

I hope he signed a good contract now and is not screwed out of the Internet money like it happened with "Never gonna give up" .

Poyunch · Apr 7, 2016

YouTube comments told me to watch in 1.25x speed and legitimately is more enjoyable.

I entered this thread thinking it'd be a rickroll from Astley himself -- the video starts off with the new song but then abruptly changes.

Micerider · Apr 7, 2016

I knew he would never give me up!

Ahhhh, now it becomes a club banger. I'm here for hearing Rick Astley spin at the gay clubs.

mrklaw · Apr 7, 2016

Rick Astley and Cyndi Lauper with new music coming out. Aah, its like I'm 15 again.
