Friday Music - Rick Astley

Emmm what can I say about Rick Astley.... white dude that don't sound like a white dude?!!! Well this is dedicated to Cin and Emma, who in their teenage years went to Rick's concert and scream their head off!!!!
Consider yourself being RickRolled!! ... Wikipedia can explain it better!




From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A still photo of the YouTube video of "Never Gonna Give You Up", the song played when viewers are Rickrolled.
Rickrolling is an Internet meme[1][2] typically involving the music video for the 1987 Rick Astley song "Never Gonna Give You Up". The meme is a bait and switch: a person provides ahyperlink that they claim is relevant to the topic at hand, but the link actually takes the user to the Astley video. The link can be masked or obfuscated in some manner so that the user cannot determine the true destination of the link without clicking. When a person clicks on the link and is led to the web page, he or she is said to have been "rickrolled". Rickrolling has extended beyond web links to playing the video or song disruptively in other situations, including public places;[2] this culminated when Astley and the song made a surprise appearance in the 2008 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade,[1] a televised event with tens of millions of viewers.
