Can you be 'rickrolled' if you actually like Rick Astley?
I like a wide variety of music. Everything from Ray Charles to Stevie Ray Vaughn to Cat Stevens to Cat Power to Power Station to David Bowie. And, I LIKE the song 'Never Gonna Give You Up'. I know it's lame, but I like it. Can I be rickrolled?

4. No one likes anything about Rick Astley. Not even you.
If you believe otherwise, then it's time for an intervention.


And, yes, you can still be RickRolled.

7. You think you do
That only shows how deeply the programming is ingrained in your psyche.

We must act immediately to save you.


The mantra of the Astleyfan:

I guess some people never see/especially a fool like me.


If that's not an explicit acknowledgement of the subtlety of the brainwashing, then I don't know what is.


It would take a strong, strong fan to ever let him go.

Almost.

13. ABBA was fantastic
imagine what great music we'd hear on the radio of the bums in the recording industry took just a tiny bit of the time that ABBA did to perfect their songs and sound.

As a musician who has gotten national magazine kudos for my music, I never shy away from my fondness for ABBA. Good songwriting is good songwriting, no matter what era it's from.
