You don’t know what Rick Rolled is? Neither did I until this morning. Basically, it’s the act of tricking someone into clicking an Internet link which leads to a video of Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up.

Of course, my first reaction was “who’d be stupid enough to fall for that one?” And I subsequently went away and forgot all about it.

Later on, while browsing another website, I clicked on a link within an article and immediately heard the strains of Stock, Aiken and Waterman’s finest on my laptop speakers. Fooled! Imagine my shame.

And if you don’t believe me, here’s the last word on being Rick Rolled. There’s even a website dedicated to the phenomenon. Has this ever happened to you?

Here’s an Indian group with their own brilliant take on GNR’s Sweet Child O’ Mine. The riff alone is fantastic, but when the vocalist kicks in, it’s simply awesome.

I’d love to hear a full-length version of this…

Sitar Hero anyone?

They literally pull every Beatles trick from the early days. I especially love the way they handled the “and as we wind on down the road…” section.
