      Technically, he didn't Rick Roll us. Rick Rolling only refers to the song randomly and unexpectedly playing in videos, other songs, or clicking on articles. This was planned because it's England's tradition on New Year's Eve, like how the U.S. has someone singing Imagine before the ball drops.

      Yeah, he's apparently a really chill dude! It's been a few decades since he first released the song, so I think he revels in the renewed popularity he got on the internet.

      IIRC initially he wasn't happy about it, but after thinking about it, decided to roll with it - and then found himself enjoying the fact that one of his songs is probably one of the most recognisable bops of time.
      Not to mention many new generations of fans getting into the rest of his songs because of Never gonna give you up.
