I’m never giving up, right now.
Ha! You can’t fool me into clicking on that video link!
Now I absolutely need a Slayer version!
Sigh. Good god. First time in years. YEARS I tell you.
ASTLEY: What do you want for your birthday, honey?
ASTLEY’S WIFE: The Blu-Ray edition of my favorite Pixar movie
ASTLEY: No
I was so excited too.
So was I.
Shame on you @beschizza. Shame!
Is this what you use to “Rick-ripple” someone?
2019’s been hard on Astley if he’s releasing a sad take of his song :c Does he need a hug? Because i will give him a hug…
Thank god YouTube doesn’t autoplay anymore.
This is worth a revisit:
I love Choir, Choir, Choir!
i really like this. it’s is so good it might supplant the original in my head canon.
You got me @beschizza
Then me: Whoa, a Slayer cover? That actually sounds kind co-
Now me: GODAMMITBESCHIZZAYOUGOTME
Reggie Watts did a cover of Never Gonna Give You Up (well, they stopped about halfway, which is probably for the best). It’s just utterly fantastic.
Beat to Choir Choir Choir by @anon61221983
And well played @beschizza.
And here I trusted you @beschizza…
Only tangentially related, but I am a fan of Aztec Camera’s cover of Van Halen’s “Jump.”
