I give TheMalleableDuck my upper most respect

There was also a time on Reddit where somebody asked Rick Astley if he would ever give him up and Rick Astley just responded go fuck yourself

Huh, looks like the user doesn't exist on Reddit anymore

Even more respect. Maybe they’re here on Lemmy somewhere

Commenter was wrong, user still exists.

From all I can tell, Rick Astley seems like a really cool guy with a great sense of humor.

Also (I swear on my late father's grave this is not a Rickroll), he does an absolutely amazing cover of Uptown Funk, which I like more than the original.

Feel free to search for "Rick Astley Uptown Funk" on your own if you don't believe me though. It's worth it.

Yo that was pretty awesome...his voice is great

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

Yeah, I regularly go back and listen to it.

Damnit, I was hoping to be rickrolled.

He sings so damn clearly, I don’t know why but I’m currently enamored with how every single word he is singing is so pronounced and pleasant sounding, it’s like listening to the song in HD.
