This is next level shit. You made me Rick roll myself
Ah, the DataRiker maneuver
Inconceivable!
Never start a land war in Asia?
Never click a link with Rick Astley in the title! HAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHA…thud
No he never
Omg you are right, here check this, its gone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&t=1
See, I know what you’re doing, but imma click it anyway
Were you let down?
4k remaster! Even BIGGER, moar hi-def Rickrolls now!!!
PHWOAAAAAAARRRR!!
The true defence against evil.
thejokebutworse
The joke but easier.
Good to see the url XcQ still going strong.
Does t=1 mean the first second is missing ( where it autostarts from)?
yes
Still up, I checked
You got rickrolled in 2026. Congratulations!
It worked best when YT had banner ads instead of video ads. Today you get Wix rolled for a minute or two before you get to the Rick.
You need more Revanced in your life
Or ublockOrigin
Or set your VPN to a country where they don’t monetise videos (Albania’s one)
I watch YouTube on a TV, as the good lawd intended, not on a pocket screen.
Then God’s sake, pay the $13 a month. You get YouTube music included, which has damn near everything.
Don’t let your brain get destroyed.
I don’t get YouTube ads. Between my Pihole and Ublock, I see nothing.
Good, just check it in on your health. Those things are invasive. Not even sure I trust a person that listens to ads on YouTube.
Id rather never listen to music again than pay for that lmao
There are people who watch ads on Youtube?
It’s not the original though. The OG ended in RHA0.
XcQ is the only one I ever saw…
Yep.
XcQ - Link stays blue
afaik there were always a handful of different links out there
Fool me once shame on you.
Fool me twice and “I just wanted to check how many views it had by now that’s all.”Ha! Excellent try, but I know exactly what you’re doing.
you can’t troll me, youtube is currently A/B testing me by banning my IP unless I login which I rarely do.
screw youtube. they are doing the same to me
Me too. Are we sure there even is a B in this A/B test?
A stands for Ass, B stands for Butt and since Asses and Butts are the same thing, you won’t notice the difference.
Just shuffle through a few vpn servers until it works. Always does the trick for me ¯\(ツ)/¯
Edit: same goes for commenting with a lemmy.world account
Saw an interview with him last night. They were totally unprepared to film that video, amateur hour. He was young and scared shitless, made up the dance on the spot. Guy doing backflips? “Hey guys! Watch what I can do!” In the video he went. There was a guy yelling out his apartment window for them the shut the fuck up down there. Wardrobe? Nope, those were his own clothes.
Rick Astley was Ren before Ren.
Ren as in Kylo, MC, or “& Stimpy”?
Ren Gill.
He gave you up 😞
He let us down.
He ran around, and deserted us!!
He made us cry.
He said goodbye
He told a lie and hurt us!
No he never
No he never
That’s what he’d said, yet he did anyway.
No he never
1.5 billion views. Who knew this song would reach such fame decades after its release.
Not nearly as big of a story but you should hear about BER - The Night Begins to Shine..
- Written in 2005 as an assignment to "create an 80s-style song for a music library’s
- In 2014, appeared in an episode of Teen Titans Go for fewer than 10s as a throwaway joke.
- Immediately Hit #23 in Billboard charts
- Inspired TTG to make followup miniseries with covers by bands like Fallout Boy and Ceelo Green
And on that thread, Subways of your Mind by FEX. A group of West German friends who recorded music together but were never picked up had a recording of their song on the radio from the 80s become “The most mysterious song on the internet” which led to them getting back together and making new music in the 2020s.
Who knew. Cool.
Fallout Boy (or, specifically, Patrick Stump) also does the theme song for “Spidey and His Amazing Friends” and “Hot Wheels: Let’s Race!”
And almost nobody actually wanted to watch it.
We all thought we were safe and then OP pulled one off again.
It is hard to believe. I’m not going to believe you. I’m not falling for that trick.
Yes, never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down…
Outstanding move
Don’t worry! There’s a mirror here:

He would never give us up like that!
This thread did a great job showing which lemmy instance users can’t be taken seriously lol.
