an unexpected outcome, a total surprise..

many thought that rick astley was a black vocalist-- but when the music video came out it was a pale redheaded boy.. thus pulling a rick astley

a fecking legend

Probably the most legendary meme on the internet.

Our president

He will never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna go around, never gonna desert you, never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell you a lie, never gonna hurt you

The President and the greatest in songs.

Rick Astley is an amazing singer and rickroll maker.
One of the reason why he is an amazing singer and rickroll maker is because he's:

Never gonna give you up!
Never gonna let you down!

Never gonna run around and dessert you!

We humans also hope that rickroll will be one of the proves that humans existed.

Besides being one of the most successful british singer of the 80's with his popular 1987 hit "Never Gonna Give You Up" (and the rather funny and random Internet prank that it generated), Rick Astley is also, just like Longcat, Slowpoke and Pedobear, among others, an idol in the Internet. If you don't agree, then you're either: 1. a newfag, or 2. stupid.

If you've been rick rolled, don't rage! Enjoy the funny video and accept the fact that Astley just pwned the crap out of you.

He was born in 1966, and up to date keeps rick rolling people IRL, although has never been as famous as he was in the late 80's, and now admits his hit has a very stupid letter.

After YouTube made it an old meme in April, 2008, there have been numerous attempts to replace the prank. The most successful video so far has been the "Jizz in my Pants" song, whose creators power level is certainly not even close to that of Astley, but the "Jizz Roll" is on its way to success.

Our king.
