I saw him perform this on "The Arsenio Hall Show"....and Arsenio was blown away. He was floored that that BIG voice was coming out of this little red-headed white boy. He said Rick's voice was nothing but pure soul.
@@okmickey232 I'm sure that particular episode can be viewed online. I just reported what transpired. Hate on Arsenio.....not me. They were HIS words.....not mine.
Rick got a monsterous voice..Big tune, It was a megahit on the radio in LA.. 80s vibe was so chill and real. I'm 42 now, I remember it thoroughly. 💯✌🏽..
You misunderstand the term. Look it up. You cannot be Rickrolled if you intent was to go to someplace on the Net ... and that's where you were sent. Rickrolling is when you WANT to go somewhere on the Net and are taken to the video the reactors just reacted to.
This made it to number 1 in 25 countries. Rick was 21 when this came out in 1987. It was his first song, he had 8 top ten hits in the next 5 years. He became disenchanted with the music business and retired at 27. He has started gigging again and has released several albums in the past 5 years. His first new one, 50, premiered in the UK at number one. I prefer his newer songs, he looks more like his voice. One of his newer one is “Try” th-cam.com/video/0Aud6ROCkKI/w-d-xo.html
Well let's face it, Rick was never really taken as a serious performer in the 80s and was the subject of many parodies. It's safe to say that he has had the last laugh and has become a legend even to the people that ridiculed him (yes, that includes me).
He looks like Archie, but he has a great voice - "It Would Take a Strong Strong Man" is my favorite song from Rick. BJ has never been Rick-rolled, evidently.
Everyone thinks he's Black, but he was only like 21 here with that fantastic voice. He sings R and B and Soul so well. It was a HUGE song everywhere, and he has a few others. He put out an album 5 years ago with a different kind of music and another new one about 2 years ago.
This was a huge hit and was produced and written by Stock/Aitken/Waterman which made lots of hits for other artists and also made Kylie Minogue into a superstar!
I've heard this classic song a million times and it never gets old. Super upbeat!!! Love Rick's super deep vocals. "Together Forever" is another one of his hits.
I'll say it. When I first heard this song on the radio, I thought it was a soulful African-American singer, and then I saw the video on MTV, and someone had to pick my jaw up off the floor. I was stunned. He's got a Luther Vandross voice.
This was such a HUGE hit back in the late 80s in the UK and went on to be known around the world. I have so many menories of listening to this tune, espesh at parties and wedding receptions etc... plus a few year ago it was a youtube memo where it for some reason went viral again after all those years....
This song was so popular! I'm not sure how the "Rick Rolled" craze started this past year, but I think some youngsters don't think it's as cool as we did in the 80's!
Asia just looks so shocked. It is hard to believe that voice is from that young man. I don't know if it was ever used in a movie but a lot of jokes were started from this song, cause no one could believe that was actually him
This is what is missing in today's music TALENT his voice is truly killer and he still can do it pull him up he surprised everyone. If American I do was around he would have won hands down
He shocked America ! Such a tender loving song with a great beat ! He took the country by storm ! A really great singer. I ran and got my cassette. Your reactions are PRICELESS and on POINT !
It takes a big honest man to admit to his girl !!! that he never heard this very popular song before ( & to never even pretend that he might have ! ) , regardless of the millions of times it had been played over the air waves , Much Respect 👍👋🙏
@@clemigula4228 I think you should "chill", but I KNOW you should stop telling me what to do. I merely stated a fact but, the 1st 2 words you said WERE "Rick rolled". Now, I know that could have been interpreted by others as meaning either 1) you were just laughing at the phrase because so many had stated A&B were or 2) because you were saying it like, "Aha !!! You've been RR'ed !!". Either way, I was making sure to EVERYONE (including you) reading your post that they weren't.
One year at the Macy’s parade, they had a float for the cartoon Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends. The float started playing their theme and then Rick Astley came out and did this entire song with the characters dancing to this!
"Never Gonna Give You Up" is the debut single recorded by English singer and songwriter Rick Astley, released on 27 July 1987. It was written and produced by Stock Aitken Waterman, and was released as the first single from Astley's debut album, Whenever You Need Somebody (1987). The song was a worldwide number-one hit, initially in the United Kingdom in 1987, where it stayed at the top of the chart for five weeks and was the best-selling single of that year. It eventually topped the charts in 25 countries, including the United States and West Germany.[6] The song won Best British Single at the 1988 Brit Awards. In 2008, Astley won the MTV Europe Music Award for Best Act Ever with the song, as a result of collective voting from thousands of people on the Internet, due to the Rickrolling meme.[7] The song is considered Astley's signature song and it is often played at the end of his live concerts. The music video for the song has become the basis for the popular "Rickrolling" Internet meme.
Saw Rick live in the Netherlands at an 80s retro party. The venue had room for about 10k people but there were only about 2000 people there. Rick smashed it. He sang flawlessly and loved every minute of it. What a stellar performer with a golden voice.
Rick Astley was a true find in the 80s. He blew us all away with that big voice and awesome dance moves. He also benefited from the powerHouse production team of Stock Aitken Waterman who boosted many other people's careers at the time with their signature sound. True euro-pop an irresistible sound
There’s a video on you tube that is about the making of the Rick Roll where they interview Rick Astly and the others involved in writing and producing this song. It’s pretty cute. This was a hit that almost never was and I think it has almost become more famous the second time around as the Rick Roll. This song was huge in the 80s. His voice was certainly unique. You didn’t expect a voice like that coming out of such a baby face. I love his voice.
What I think I know of Rick Astley (I'm his gen) is he was a runner/gopher/teaboy for the music co. and got a chance to sing a song. He brought a bag with his own clothes and did a video for the song. The song was a big hit and Rick Astley followed up with some more and was all over the UK charts in '87 '88 ish. He was on that road of fame and fortune when he turned away and prioritised his family life instead. 'Never gonna give you up' respect Rick Astley. Very '80s pop machine stuff at the time, but classic legend now.
Great voice, great hook, sampled as usual; it's like they just can't write songs like this anymore Geez! Now imagine you two that you're dancing to this song in a club in the 1980s. The best!
This was huge back then, #1 almost everywhere in the world. That year I travelled from Cyprus to London to LA then Sydney and every country I went to it was #1 and you heard it EVERYWHERE!!!!!!
@@RobertoDAndrea ... and, Asia has clearly indicated that she's heard the song before, but just didn't realize that by the name. You know, people DO hear songs without knowing who did them or what they look like. It happens to her a LOT. Again, that is NOT being "Rickrolled", SPECIFICALLY because the person who sent them the link INTENDED for them to react to this song. Rickrolling is when you follow a link, thinking it is about one thing, but when you get there, it is something completely different. In fact, you've definitely been Rickrolled if and BECAUSE you are given a link to something totally, NOT MUSICALLY RELATED AT ALL, and are sent to this specific video/song. Clearly, everyone is hoping this silly notion is real, but the song IS what the requester wanted them to listen to, and Asia OFTEN knows the songs presented to them, but doesn't realize it until after they start to play it. I've seen her do this on several songs and occasions over the past couple of days alone, and this also happens to most of the reactors that I subscribe to, like Jamel_AKA-Jamal. Does that mean that she or they've been Rickrolled all those times? Of course not. Jokes MAY BE funny when they are real. This is just some childish wishful thinking. Give it a rest.
@@StevesFunhouse All they were saying was that she was probably rick rolled at some point in the past, and that was probably what gave her exposure to this song enough that she recognized it. They weren't saying that this was a rickroll, or that the people requesting this song were rickrolling them. It was just conjecture about where she might have heard the chorus in the past, which is perfectly reasonable to guess. If it's not clear enough, they were saying that at some point Asia had probably been sent a link that she thought led to something else, but it actually was this, and hence she recognized this song, even if she didn't understand the meaning or purpose of a rick roll.
@@peterlewis2178 That's an assumption, and I don't DO assumptions. Had they been Rickrolled before, they would have mentioned it. You've read my other posts, I assume, so you know where I stand and what I think about it. It needs to stop, this spreading of "little lies" to make yourself feel important. This is how rumors get started and someone WILL eventually get hurt over these things if we don't nip it in the bud, and I'm not waiting around to call offenders out. Not anymore! I've seen probably close to 50 reaction videos (or more) where they pull this same HOAX. It's very annoying, it's NEVER true, it's childish and NEVER makes these people more popular. Let it go people !!!
The song was in us billboard hot 100 in 1988 in March and won a ton of other awards and been on multiple other charts all over us and uk. It was a bit back in the 80s and became famous once again years later bc of an internet meme. It’s a song that’s never gonna be forgotten, hence the never gonna give you up, lol. Great song
Даже в России эту песню слышали и подпевали) У меня она плей листе есть) Иногда в машине слушаю по дороге на работу или домой. Even in Russia this song was heard and sang along. I have it on the playlist. Sometimes I listen in the car on the way to work or home.
Few tidbits about this video: They had practically no budget, so all the clothes you see him wear are actually his own. The guy playing the bartender spent the entire shoot being drunk or hungover. The girl behind Rick (on his left, viewer's right) didn't know all the choreography for the dancing, which is why they keep cutting her out of frame. If y'all want to hear him more comfortable, listen to Together Forever. Video's less awkward and his voice is a bit more controlled. This song and video were basically a test drive.
My mom love this song because this was reminded her of 80's and I was born during the 80's,and one's her favourite song. This song was amazing and singer is very talent for everyone, especially today. 😄
Thank you Asia. You made the rest of my day and I love you for that. Checked a few of the comments here and am happy to read that some know he is British where he first introduced this song.
Art is art by anyone. I grew up with this.. Some European songs make it across the pond while some dont.. unsure if this was successful in US at that time....
Never Gonna Give You Up was a HUGE hit. Catchy as hell too! lol....and Asia, I love love your rose gold headphones. I want a pair. Where did you buy them, if I may ask?
Offended for someone else, are we??? Relax snowflake. Nothing wrong with having a good laugh. Wonder how many of the other comments, exactly like mine, you took the time to complain about? Get fucked Karen!
Can't believe I never saw this reaction before! It slid right on by. Loved watching you all when you heard him. We ALL had the same expressions on our faces when we first saw him sing it back in the 80s!!!
There's a meme sort of thing that is singing "I'm a little white boy with a big black voice" to the chorus tune. He did a slowed down piano version of this song a yr or so ago. It's a ballad and gives it a whole different vibe. It's beautiful.
LOL. Your voice said it all for sure. Classic reaction to hearing Rick Astley for the first time and seeing his video. Great song and great reaction!!!
I saw him perform this on "The Arsenio Hall Show"....and Arsenio was blown away. He was floored that that BIG voice was coming out of this little red-headed white boy. He said Rick's voice was nothing but pure soul.
Don't you mean the AAAAARRRRSSSEEEEEENNNNIIIIIOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HHHAAAAAAAALLLLLL show?

The ladies love it.
He was gorgeous, with an even more glorious voice, and he had style for days. Love him, so much.
At a young age he sold 40 million albums and retired to be with his family. He did eventually come back and release music.

Art is art by anyone. I grew up with this.. Some European songs make it across the pond while some dont.. unsure if this was successful in US at that time....
Girl has good smile
Back then, he was a global sensation! I loved Together Forever as well.
Never Gonna Give You Up was a HUGE hit. Catchy as hell too! lol....and Asia, I love love your rose gold headphones. I want a pair. Where did you buy them, if I may ask?
for the longest time Rick was accused of not being the person who sang this song until he performed it live and that shut the critics up
March 11, 1988 was number 1 on the charts
His cover of 'When I fall In Love' is fantastic.
6.48 the look Asia gave BJ when he said “..this had to have been a hit..” 🤣🤣🤣
Think I’m right saying he was invited onstage with the Foo Fighters at one gig.
You guys just Rick-rolled yourselves! 🤣
Learn to read !!! They weren't Rickrolled !!! You don't understand the term !!!
Offended for someone else, are we??? Relax snowflake. Nothing wrong with having a good laugh. Wonder how many of the other comments, exactly like mine, you took the time to complain about? Get fucked Karen!
Everyone here just got RickRolled inadvertently.
It's so Funny when many youtuber's Rick-Rolling themselves each time without realizing the connection to Rick-Rolling..lol
Really enjoy your appreciation of these artists that are new to you. Keep it up and I'll keep watching.
The first time my girlfriend heard it was on Family Guy,the dog was singing it,she was like,how you know that song,now it's on her Playlist
@Asia and BJ then you must have heard (Eddy Grant - Romancing the Stone - and - Electric Avenue)
Damn, never thought Asia and BJ would Rick Roll me... 😱
Rick was part of the Romantic Movement. Another big hit by a romntic group was ABC's When Smokey Sings. I think you guys would really like that one
Great reaction great to see y'all back with some great music
Can't believe I never saw this reaction before! It slid right on by. Loved watching you all when you heard him. We ALL had the same expressions on our faces when we first saw him sing it back in the 80s!!!
There's a meme sort of thing that is singing "I'm a little white boy with a big black voice" to the chorus tune. He did a slowed down piano version of this song a yr or so ago. It's a ballad and gives it a whole different vibe. It's beautiful.
I was a senior in High school 12 grade back in 1988 when I first heard this jam Rick Astley is the kat 👍 😀
⚜️ I'll be seeing him in concert in New Orleans in May '22. ⚜️
He's brilliant! He was the opening act to Take That when they toured in the UK 2 years ago! Still has fantastic voice! 🙂
LOL. Your voice said it all for sure. Classic reaction to hearing Rick Astley for the first time and seeing his video. Great song and great reaction!!!
Asia get you a man that has heard of this song before!!! 😂 this never gets old!! Lol love y'all ! BTW you couldn't be even more gorgeous miss Asia ❤
