During much of his career , many listeners assumed he was black. In one instance, the comedic entertainer, Sinbad, discussed him with a talk-show host, expressing his surprise that Astley was not "one of the brothers." Even after his visual appearance, it was still popular belief that he was miming for a black American singer. His brother Mike Astley helped to refute this assertion.

"

over the last year or so, Astley has watched with puzzled amazement as “Never Gonna Give You Up” has been mocked, celebrated, remixed and reprised, its original music video viewed millions of times on YouTube, all by a generation that could barely swallow its Gerber carrots when the song first topped the pop charts. “I think it’s just one of those odd things where something gets picked up and people run with it,” Astley said. “But that’s what brilliant about the Internet.”

As I mentioned on the Chicago thread, this song got the biggest crowd response of the night during the wedding reception I was at.

btw, the first Rickroll was by Nick Low, on the song "all men are liars":

"Do you rememeber Rick Astley
He had a big old hit it was ghastly
He said: I'm never gonna give you up or let you down
I'm here to tell you that Dick's a clown"
