Comments on: This week in awesomeness: 20 years ago, we all got Rickrolled

This week in 1988, Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Twenty years later, it's become a ubiquitous Internet prank.

go read

geez after reading this report on useless e-mails I got one piece of advice: rather than accumulating knowledge about 80's pop, go read a book or learn some geography. Knowing some capitals of the world is nice and much better than knowing what capital letters in a post signify.

not so cheesy

Personally I dont think the song is bad at all. It has a nice beat, you can dance to it,and it sure beats the devil out of anything i have heard comming out of the music industry in many a moon.

RickRoll Your Coworkers

For those who share their iTunes library at work, might I suggest dropping the song into your library to RickRoll your unsuspecting coworkers.
