Never Gonna Give You Up...but it's a fugue

- Never Gonna Give You Up...but it's a 4-voice fugue! I composed this fugue on "Never Gonna Give You Up", the famous 80's pop song by Rick Astley. I changed some pitches of the subject to make it more Bachian, with tonal harmony for a better counterpoint. But I used some non-stylistic voice-leading, for example some unresolved sevenths, that make a modern sound. And welcome back Organ sound from Musescore! Headphones recommend. As always, don't take this fugue too much seriously. But let me know if you liked it in the comments.
P.S. The final Bb in the pedal part and also at measure 22 doesn't exist as written, it should be an octave higher, sorry I forgot to transpose it during the video editing. As well as other passages in the pedal part, which are too complicated, they need to be moved on the manual.
I love composing fugues with pop/meme subjects. For more content and "meme fugues" like that, share the video and subscribe youtube.com/@jackyyi_01?featu...

Can't imagine why you didn't call it "never gonna gifugue up"
Somebody just did th-cam.com/video/tlV0k-rC-00/w-d-xo.html
Because that already exists...
@@NeoCat1993 Well..as you can see @sigil5772 wrote this comment before the video you're talking about
@@jackyyi_01 fair enough, apologies. Times are a bit if a blur these days
I am amazed that you came up with this before the other fugue was written, well done.
Ah yes, the lost Bach opus "Herr Jesu gibet Euch nimmer auff"
Geilster Kommentar!😂😂😂
Dieser Kommentar hat definitiv zu wenig Likes!
Normalerweise bin ich kein Bach Fan aber der Kommentar hat mich gekillt😂
I will save this for the right moment - when the situation requires a very dignified and epic Rick-roll. Thank you.
I would 100% offer this for weddings and funerals! You know there's people that would jump on the chance!
I appreciate that this video started with the chorus, so we get an idea of how fugue is built off of it... but there really needs to be a longer version of this (even if barely) with an intro that takes the listener off guard until the melody hits them.
Absolutely!
@@kateshiningdeer3334dude! I was gonna say the same thing 😂
People missed the best dad joke yet.
Good Rick Rolls are fugue and far between.
You know the fugue and so do I
Full counterpoint is what I’m thinking of
You wouldn’t get this from any other guy
I just wanna play this how it's written
Gonna make this sound so nice
I so want to be in a cathedral and hear the organist play this ❤
That would involve a lot of work for the organist. It's technically quite hard I think.
Before or after In the Garden of Eden, by I. Ron Butterfly?
@@JasperKloekwell playing the organ is what they are payed to do… so yeah, I would hope they could play a fugue.
@@johnryan1004 The pedal is unreasonably difficult, many fast passages with leaps. Most professional organists aren't required for that much virtuosity and stamina.
I love Ba-Rick music! 😅

Time to Baroque n'Roll!

If it ain't Ba-Rick...
We’re no strangers to Bach.
Another example of how all contemporary western music, from show tunes of the 30s and 40s, to jazz, to pop, to even heavy metal owes so much to Bach.
I just deliberately rickrolled myself for three full minutes. Well done.
The most baroque way to rickroll
Love it !
You've been Baroque -rolled! 😂
TBF, the point of Rickrolling is the dance, meaning the video part.
As an organist this might be fun to perform only to rickroll everyone listening sounds good and difficult lol
What a childish thought.
Uhh, do it.
Right before church...
Do it man! Do it!
Once you go Baroque, you never go back
Sir Richard of Æstley took the Bach seat.
Thee knoweth the rul'r and so doth I
When you go to church and realize you just got Rick rolled.
Never gonna vote you down, never gotta close this tab or report you!
Changing my will to request a performance of this at my memorial.
"yes, this is a sad fugue" 😭
Saddina
Many contrepunto mistakes. Horrible, sorry😢
@@SequentialCircuitProphet5 sorry maestro, hope in Giacomo's forgiveness🙏🙏
@@SequentialCircuitProphet5 Thank you for your feedback...but could you show me these mistakes you're talking about?
In order for this to breathe new life into the art of rickrolling, it really needs to be happy/triumphant. Please major-ify it! Wicked cool as it is, though.
Was never so happy to be rick rolled in my life!
This my new favourite genre of art/shitpost
IMHO, I can't name this a shitpost, bro is creating an incredible things none of us can do
Agreed!
@@hoteymaks
❤ Exactly. 😊
It would be oddly appropriate if someone rickrolled a wedding with this instead of playing the usual "here comes the bride" processional.
I’m telling you the baroque is COMING BACK
Oh, so it is getting a renaissance?
@@kimvibk9242underrated comment, bravo
It’s my main obsession on electric guitar.
this is the ONLY version I care to ever listen to again in my life
I wrote a parody arrangement of Never Gonna Give You Up for piano and violin with three sections: the first is based on the opening of Bach's Italian Concerto no. 1; the second (scherzo) is a polyrhythmic version of the main song; the third is a fast counterpoint section. I have been delaying publishing it for a couple months because I felt like I needed to write a fugue section, but I struggled to get anywhere with it. Now I feel like I don't have to and can just publish what I have already composed.
Astounding! So that's what Rick S. Bach sounds like.
As someone who's studied 18th century harmony, this totally cracked me up! Well done!
Bishop: I sympathize with the plight of this temptation, but please don't.
Liking the end basso sostenuto. This is the best introduction to the method of fugue I've ever seen. If you're musical enough to construct one (and I think plenty of people are), you can come up with a completely new piece every weekend, as I know a certain gentleman in Leipzig had to do in order to earn his living.
This is BRILLIANT. You are amazingly talented, Giacomo. Thanks so much for this
Extremely clever - subscribed immediately. The fugue is one of my favourite music forms.
"Umineko no naku koro ni" has some nice fugues in its soundtrack.
I've been rickrolled by Bach! Yay!
I'm fan of both, Astley and Bach. So this is just perfect! 🤩
Beautifull fuggue, I am pleased to be rickrolled this way!
"Jolly good show!" - pops
A fugue commitment's what I'm looking for...
Hahahaaa, WONDERFUL! Thanks for all of the work you put into this, not insignificant!
Found this on Easter Sunday. Feels just right.
Best version of the song I've heard
This is fuguelicious!
Awesome & clever cover.
I suspect that J.S. Bach would give this an A+.
This is utterly terrifying
I am speechless. With laughter and respect.
THIS IS BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!
_Very_ clever and _inventive._ Bravo! 👏
Well, now I know what to use if I ever want to Rick Roll my dad.
I do hope they play that at Ashley’s memorial. I might haven’t at mine.
Hilariously brilliant! Best of Good Fortune in giving us more innovative fun like this!
If I'm ever getting married again I want this as my wedding music and if my fiancée does not like it then she's not the one.
"Fairest good tidings to thee, O treasured Horatio, for I haveth dost importantest message, to be listened upon with all possible dispatch. Thou needeth only to apply the utmost vigor, and clicketh on dost link."
If it ain't baroque, don't fix it! This takes a Bach seat to no-one....
Sounds like something played at a funeral...
Yo tell me how the fck we are all intentionally rickrolling ourselves these days and just goddamn loving it
You plumbed the musical depths of the anguished romance of the Rick himself. Classiest baroque Rickroll ever.
I guess "Baby's Got Bach" is in the works.
I'm gonna start playing fugues ! Inspiring +well done .
You’ve just been Bach-rolled!
I really enjoyed this, thanks for writing it! I especially loved the long pedal at the end.
I am a Christian, and today I saw the message "Plant today, enjoy forever" at a local garden centre. I also heard William Walton's "Spitfire Prelude and Fugue" on the radio. So when I saw this Rick-roll fugue, I knew I'd enjoy it. Jesus can be very playful with those who know him, and him saying he's never gonna give me up is very touching.
If you're interested in finding out more about Jesus, simply reply to this comment and I'll do my best to answer any questions, or just watch this video (it's not mine) - aUbJkmHMZMg
Just watching the intervals hurts the little space between my fingers
Never gonna fugue you up, but epic.
Reminds me of Bach Invention No.5
good piece for the Commemoration of the Holy Martyrs... Never Gave Thee Up.
Wow, totally awesome. I totally love fugues with fond memories of the first Bach organ fugues that I played when I was a kid.
This. This is genius. Never had kitsch achieved such heights. Magnificent. Bravo.
Oh goodness, that someone would Rickroll themselves enough times to notate this then write counterpoint & fugue in three parts & without being forced to!
Bro actually hit a banger!
Great job 🔥
Secretly if you peel away the layers all organists have been playing Rickn A’s greatest hit right under our noses. Bravo!
The Rick-Roll we never knew we needed!
Sounds so tragic
Especially when somebody was rickrolled
This is the fugue I didn’t know I needed in my life! 👏 👏 👏
Looks like you got Bach to really roll Ricky. Got 'em rolled pretty well. Rolled him four ways from Sunday, in fact.
Final boss Rick
You have been rickrolled, in baroque
Someone's church is going to get Rickrolled with this.
Never gonna fugue you up
Stock, Aitken and Waterman are geniuses
Who else doesn't hear this as sounding like the song?
I seem to have been baroque-rolled ...
I was fuguerolled.
Best of both worlds. NO. Worst of both. Nope. I'm not sure anymore. 😂
LOVE does not begin to describe my reaction to this video. This made my year! Thank you. ❤
Play this on Church Organ to rickroll the Wedding couple 😁
Love it, plz continue !
That's actually damned well composed ! Congrats, I think I will enjoy learning to play it during my hollydays ^^
Love the explanations as well !
Good luck finding an organ with a low Bb pedal.
I was considering trying it on a piano first, where would have I found an organ anyway ? ;-; @@fullario
Hey that's pretty good - surprisingly! Nonsense topic but done well and well played too. I'd like to hear another one.
Please play this one at my funeral
Fugatto in shape of Pop Fashion. Wonderful.
Freakin' brilliant.
This is more fun to listen to than the original song. Thank You!
Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
This is brilliant!
Awesome!!😎 JS would love this no doubt. Keep on rocking (fugue) style.
We got Bachrolled.
The lowest parts seem appallingly difficult for an organist with only two feet! However, I love it! Can't wait to hear it on a church organ!
That’s the best thing I’ve heard all week !
Very nice; well done!
Very decent work, thank you!
Spectacular 👍
Absolutely awesome. I've been rickrolled and I loved it. ❤
Fabulous!
That was surprisingly good!
Sounds like Rick Astley wrote a song for Symphony of the Night.
