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. 💯✌🏽..
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 👍👋🙏
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.
@@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 !!!
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.
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!
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. 😄
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?
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.
As a white guy hearing this in the 80s, it was not until around 2010 that I realized this sound was coming out of this guy. Amazing! Never judge a book by it's cover.
I just love how this song and video are just completely wholesome content and the whole world knows of it's existence and they love it even if they say they don't...
Yep Rick Rolled LOL. Cool things this song hit #1 in 25 countries, in 2016 his new album that year Debuted at #1, He was voted "The best act ever" by Internet users at the MTV Europe Music Awards. 1st UK. artist to have his 1st 8 songs hit the top 10 in UK. Sold 40 million albums. Everyone knows him for this one though LOL.
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!!!
Let me give you youngens a heads up on what did song did in the 80s: When they played this song in the clubs when it came out, womens panties would drop quicker than oil prices. This song was number on in Asia, Europe, The U.S., Australia, Africa, South America and the Middle East. Years later this song came back to haunt TH-camrs. See below comment to what I mean.
@Asia&BJ Hey BJ, the reason Asia is so giddy is because the song. This song is famous because people rickroll others with it. The joke is this: The artist? Rick Astley. You are being Rickrolled by Rick Astley. That's the joke. But what makes it so funny is how it's done. Here, this explains it better. Rickrolling, alternatively Rick-rolling or Rickroll, is a prank and an Internet meme involving an unexpected appearance of the music video for the 1987 song "Never Gonna Give You Up," performed by the English singer Rick Astley. The meme is a type of bait and switch using a disguised hyperlink that leads to the music video. When victims click on a seemingly unrelated link, the site with the music video loads instead of what was expected, and in doing so they are said to have been "Rickrolled". The meme has also extended to using the song's lyrics, or singing it, in unexpected contexts. They play specifically the chorus because it's funny. "Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you". I was born before this song came out. Here's a video of Rick Astley rickrolling a tv news reporter live, th-cam.com/video/a8eU6hTAHEE/w-d-xo.html And...IF you're curious enough, here's a video detailing it. th-cam.com/video/QMW4AqbuSGg/w-d-xo.html This song was #1 on the Billboards. The video explains how rickrolling came to be, as well as sharing the history of Rick Astley.
Wow, takes me back! Worked at an ice-cream factory, in the freezer... We did have a "warm-room" though and in there this cassette (remember them?) was spinning... It broke eventually! The whole album great! If I hear it now I think I´ll be thinking of icecream.... I have though heard new material with Rick, that is really good! Check it out! Love your energy together - recognize it from my day to day life... ;-) Peace and love from Sweden!

Well sadly I’m old enough to have strut my stuff on the 80s dance floors in my younger days 😂 It flew right in to No1 in the UK charts on its release, another classic from the Stock Aitken Waterman studios. Great vids 👍😊
Ahhhh….you already got it. Also another huge one is called a-ha. Take on me. Ton of video it’s on that one as well. Of course… From the 80s. What a great era of music in the 80s
You should hear the song end to end, no interruptions. It was recorded in 1986 and hit #1 in 18 countries from 1987 to 1988 including the U.S. In it's own way, still one of the best songs ever recorded.

The other 5.8 billion people didn't see it on YT, they heard it hundreds of times on the radio... then there's the people that bought it and played it with their friends.
I am sorry to say this but you have actually been Rick Rolled! Yes this song was obviously a hit in 1987 but it created more of a sensation even 20 years later.... getting Rick Rolled became a phenomenon worldwide.
I personally never was bothered by being "Rick Rolled" because I enjoy the song.
They weren't Rickrolled !!!
Same. It's a good song and I was born before the silly Meme Generation.
Being rick rolled is a good prank
@@StevesFunhouse i would always laugh for falling for it then i would just enjoy the song
I end up listen to the video.
Damn, y'all Rick Rolled yourselves.
🤣🤣😂
😂😂
Lol
Lmaooooo
Lmao
Asia, you didn’t stop smiling through the whole thing!
Yeah, Asia is smitten
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.
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. 💯✌🏽..
Rick Asley was very popular in the mid-1980's and early 1990's. This song was very popular. He is in his late 50's now and still performs.

Asia, You have got one of the all time greatest smile!
Rick Astley has been singing this song since 1987 until now. People love this song a lot.
Asia, I bet you've been "Rick rolled" that's why you know the chorus. 😂😂
They weren't Rickrolled !!! Read up on the term !!!
In the past. That's what Gina meant, Steve. Asia must have been Rick rolled in the past. That's why she knows the chorus

Love, love, LOVE this song. What a great voice! ❤️
Damn, never thought Asia and BJ would Rick Roll me... 😱
Just wanna say I love yalls chemistry! God bless yall
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
The guy has an AMAZING VOICE!!
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. 😄
He’s sings a great cover of Bill Withers “Ain’t no sunshine”.
6.48 the look Asia gave BJ when he said “..this had to have been a hit..” 🤣🤣🤣
His cover of 'When I fall In Love' is fantastic.
her face when he first heard that song was priceless. She looked scared lol
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?
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.
I love being Rick Rolled becausce he is one of my favorite singers. He was one of the most popular singers of the 80s.
One billion views well done rick ,on this song ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Back in the 80’s the British soul was on a roll!
Listen to Rick Astley sing "When I Fall in Love" ............. Beautiful voice
Written and produced by Stock Aitken and Waterman who had success in the mid-1980s through the early 1990s with many sings/bands.
People have different abilities there born with that makes them stars . Special gifted people. Come in all shapes colors ❤
As a white guy hearing this in the 80s, it was not until around 2010 that I realized this sound was coming out of this guy. Amazing! Never judge a book by it's cover.
One of my favorite 80s song's. 🧡
Greetins from Finland...Oh man... Bj... What it feels to awake next to an angel like her...
"Living under a rock..." LOL. The song was number one on the Billboard Hot 100.
the 80's had so much joy in music. good time...
That 80s style tho!!
I just love how this song and video are just completely wholesome content and the whole world knows of it's existence and they love it even if they say they don't...
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 ❤
Rick can still sing and is better looking now. I just heard his song Together Forever. Love that song too.
Yep Rick Rolled LOL. Cool things this song hit #1 in 25 countries, in 2016 his new album that year Debuted at #1, He was voted "The best act ever" by Internet users at the MTV Europe Music Awards. 1st UK. artist to have his 1st 8 songs hit the top 10 in UK.

Watch his glastonbury performance from couple years ago. Class!

Listen to Home Free’s cover of this. They do a great job and the each guy wears one of Rick’s outfits.
Watch Rick singing this song on a Foo Fighters concert!
He’s touring next year with Salt N Pepa, New Kids on the Block, and En Vogue.
This probably WASNT a number one hit in Guatemala or Pitcairn Island - but that’s about it on the globe ! The planet danced to this !!!

Rick Astly found the Rick rolling hilarious
Man has some soul! Didn't expect this type of voice from a very young,British,white redhead:-) Wish his music career had endured,super talented
Well sadly I’m old enough to have strut my stuff on the 80s dance floors in my younger days 😂 It flew right in to No1 in the UK charts on its release, another classic from the Stock Aitken Waterman studios. Great vids 👍😊
Well shit I was so happy when I got Rick rolled because I would bust out all the dance moves and all the lyrics🥰🥰♥️
Yeah that was our reaction when he came on in the 80s with that voice.
This was a banger!!! 🔥 Classic 80s song. Check out his other banger "Together forever". 💯
21 years old....that's how old he was when he sang this. That always blows my mind!
This tune was huge!!! Played at every wedding.
Pete Waterman openly admitted that Colonel Abrahams ‘trapped’ was the main inspiration for this track...bit obvious in retrospect
Another great reaction!!! Great song as well.
THIS CLASSIC HIT STILL STANDS THE TEST OF TIME,, ACE "HOW LONG"
Ha....! Same reaction everyone has. THAT VOICE CAME OUT OF HIM!!!!!! Lol.
Does this count as a Rick Roll?
I wanted to hear Asia sing more of it 😅
♪ I'm a little skinny white guy, but I got a big, black voice...♫ LOL
Ahhhh….you already got it. Also another huge one is called a-ha. Take on me. Ton of video it’s on that one as well. Of course… From the 80s. What a great era of music in the 80s
Rick Astley STILL looks and sounds amazing to this white girl! 🥰
You should hear the song end to end, no interruptions. It was recorded in 1986 and hit #1 in 18 countries from 1987 to 1988 including the U.S. In it's own way, still one of the best songs ever recorded.
I grew up a big rick astley fan this my favorite song by him
Yes thats his Voice!
It went number 1 in 21 country's in 2 weeks he came from no one but ungodly voice
Romancing The Stone was Billy Ocean, but definitely a similar feel and back beat. Totally different singers, both do well live!
Here's that video: th-cam.com/video/-n3sUWR4FV4/w-d-xo.html
I agree that the beat is similar. When he said Romancing the Stone, I immediately knew which song he meant and thought of the video with the three movie stars in it.
And I just realized that it's The Jewel of the Nile (the sequel) and not Romancing the Stone.
You should see the "Choir Choir Choir!" gig with Rick. Absolutely crazzzzzy good
Ya gotta check out his "Cry for help" you'll love it.
Did not know how many hits this video has lifetime. My gosh. Really surprised me.
Home Free's cover is awesome as well!
You all got Rick Rolled
This is classic '80s but he does have a decent voice. He did have other hits, but this is his most famous.
The other 5.8 billion people didn't see it on YT, they heard it hundreds of times on the radio... then there's the people that bought it and played it with their friends.
Asia and BJ… the only people to rickroll their audience 17 times in one sitting. ;) And, yeah, I’ve always loved this song.
How, just how have you never heard of getting Rick Rolled, How? LOL
Damn I got rick rolled by Asia and BJ. lol
When the Cavs win and win by 15-20 plus, and they call a time out, the fans will dance so hard to this.
Romancing the Stone is an awesome adventure movie. Overshadowed by the Indiana Jones movies, but totally legit and entertaining.
They literally Rick Rolled yourselves🤣
He was 21 at the time of this song 🤗
He just got Rick Rolled
When I first heard Rick Astley I quickly put him in the same lane with Michael Bolton.
Home Free have a funny cover of this song
If this song doesn't make you smile, I mean like cheese 😁, then there's something very wrong with you!
You looked like I did the first time I heard him. He is great!
Watch him sing this song with the Foo Fighters!
I am sorry to say this but you have actually been Rick Rolled! Yes this song was obviously a hit in 1987 but it created more of a sensation even 20 years later.... getting Rick Rolled became a phenomenon worldwide.
And he's British
So cute reaction! Hello From Siberia!
