RICK ASTLEY IS BACK
« on: September 05, 2010, 10:49:22 pm »
So, Rick Astley just came out with a new single (well, not just came out- it came out in June). Apparently it's his first single in 17 years(!!!). Go watch it and pay tribute to the king  ;D.
Oh, and in case you were wondering his career got started up again because of Rickroll, so we have a certain imageboard to thank for this...

for a while I thought another rickroll was posted outside Intro/randomness but then I saw it was his new song. I admit I was shocked when I discovered he was back. He said he stopped in the early 1990s because he didn't want to live a star life forever and prefered to spend more time with his family.

That's actually a pretty decent song :)

I didn't know he was back until just now :P

So, Rick Astley just came out with a new single (well, not just came out- it came out in June). Apparently it's his first single in 17 years(!!!). Go watch it and pay tribute to the king  ;D.

No body actually knows for sure if 4chan was the origin of Rick Rolling. Just a good guess. But I think it's him that owes a big thanks to them ;) (What Rick should have done is have that been the first minute or so and then flip to a Rick Roll :P)

Well, duckrolling started with them, and Rickroll is a spinoff of it...

Ya, I know. But that doesn't guarantee it was them. But anyways, we shall see what happens of Rick Astley.

Woo! Astley FTW! I've been listening to "Lights Out" for forever and a half now. I think it's my favorite Astley song by far. Shame it scored rather poorly on the UK Singles Chart (only #97) :/

Well if he keeps up the music that he seems to be coming out with his career might actually last, not that it wasn't his choice last time. You just don't really see 40+ year olds starting music careers that stay very long.
