Rickrolling is a bait and switch prank, almost always using a disguised hyperlink that leads to the music video for Rick Astley’s hit song, “Never Gonna Give You Up.” Usually there is some sort of build up to get you to click on the link. Like, “look who was in the news!” I mean, it’s difficult not to be tempted to click on something like that. So you do, and "Never Gonna Give You Up" welcomes you. Here is the story of how that all got started.
BHAHAHAHAHHAAAA! Y'all got Rickrolled!

Glad to be a part of it!
For the next music video
Want to do Phoenix
Or this band in the uk
Called Japan
I would click the link but I might get Rickrolled.
You should do a brief history of the band weezer next
Ay Mr beat where tf my money at?
Having an older song explode after years retired couldn’t have happened to a nicer person. I’m very happy Rick got the chance to enjoy some notoriety when he was mature enough to enjoy it.
I agree...well put
The guy who rick rolled rick is the ultimate rick roller though 😂
The original Rick roll was:
Hearing Rick Astley on the radio and imagining him as a big, burly man, then seeing his music video on TV, and realizing he’s a puny kid.
Never gonna give you up subverting expectations since 1987.
What makes Rickrolling the greatest meme ever is that it’s a genuine good song, and Rick Astley is a talented wholesome guy
and it's still one of the OG memes that is still good
So Rockstar is kind of responsible for Rickrolling becoming a thing? Fascinating!
Heck yeah. Thanks for collaborating with me on this video. 🙂
@@mattbeatgoeson Glad to do it! I had fun!
Presenting: my new rickroll link
YAS
@@mattbeatgoesonPRR PERIODT
Please keep making such interesting videos on trendy topics
Alrighty then. :)
If Mr. Beat linked one of his own videos or songs claiming it was "Never Gonna Give You Up", that would be a Beatroll!
Ummm, you must have not checked the description of this video. ;)
His label when they signed him.
🤣
One of the smartest signings by any record label in the history of the music industry.
@@mattbeatgoeson
I totally agree!
😁
The song is unironically a banger. Glad this meme showed it to a whole new generation
Do I hear She Wants To Dance With Me in the background? Nice!
Heck yeah! That's my favorite Rick Astley song, the one I wish I was Rickrolled with instead.
@@mattbeatgoeson it’s one of my favourites as well. It’s very wholesome.
Cameraman is the first one to get rickroll
6:18 lol there’s not a lot of things 18 million people do
ikr?
Just found this channel and I can’t explain how wonderful it is to see someone as enthusiastic about history and music. Mr. Beat is definitely one of the greatest creators on the platform.
I'm old enough to remember when this song was all over the airwaves, and I just wanted to punch the effing radio every time.
lol yeah mainstream radio has ruined so many songs over the years
Duckrolling in many cases also involved the audio of Patrick Stewart saying, "I'm Jean Luke Picard of the USS Enterprise"
I’m convinced you only created this video so you could get away with rickrolling all of us. Well played Mr. Beat…😄
The producers, duh
My mind is blown.
Aw man, I thought you were gonna mention the Ted Lasso episode where we got rick rolled through out the entire episode.
That was such a great episode. That's also one of my favorite shows.
Rickrolling is truly a testament to the creativity and dedication of humanity. I'm not certain it could ever be topped.
This song defines the internet
I saw a word the other day, for something that 'captures the spirit of a different time than that which it came from' and damn it that I can't recollect atm
The music video was filmed at London's Harrow Club by the way.
Is it still there?
Rick astley said, "If Mr.beat does'nt make the next video about Pearl Jam's History, I'm Personally going to rickroll him..........................
FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE"
i would never see a video of mr.beat talking abt 4chan and one of its meme
until this vid
As someone born in 99, to me the song just feels so 80s. A solid banger from a lost age
Well, when you think about it, during Operation Just Cause in 1989-90, “Never Gonna Give You Up” was one of the songs that was blasted out of speakers in order to force Manuel Noriega to come out of hiding, so it can be argued that Noriega and everyone who was working in the Vatican embassy at the time were the first people to be Rickrolled.
This would have been so cool for April Fools 😅
Love you btw.
Please make a video about Kraftwerk
Thank you and great suggestion!
This was really eye-opening! Thank you! I love these videos but I’d be super curious about a brief history of Motörhead and Alice in Chains? Those’d be brilliant!
So many rick rolls in 1 video. NICE!
Just discovered this channel today
Oh the beat goes onnnn after the thrill of playing is gone
Bring that thrill back
MrWhosetheboss is a legend of this game
Please do brief history of the stone roses, ps love your vids, both here and mr.Beat
MR BEAT, PLEASE DO A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE BAND: Rush. pleeaaseee
You should do a brief history of they might be giants or steely Dan.
Two great suggestions
I never knew what rick rolling was until the vice video. I just knew that the song was popular again.
Something I think could become similar is the Hall & Oates emergency helpline. There is a legitimate phone # that you can call where you are prompted to select 1 for one on one, 2 for rich girl, 3 for maneater, or 4 for private eyes.
His super cute face and boy next door image didn't hurt either. Love you, Rick!!!!
Plz do a history of the grateful dead because of their last tour
Certainly helps that I actually like the song, could think of a lot worse songs to get pranked with!
It's so dang catchy
Hey man could you do a video on the history of Van Halen and also good video
Social Engineering for the non-hackers.
Can you do A brief history of Alice In Chains?
Please do an episode of the brief history of Rick Astley next. All of his albums, all of his songs and all of his music, all of it. Please do a video of that soon. 👍😀👍
i think you should do a talking heads video. after all i think your name must've been inspired by a song but if not it's ok
Can you do a brief history on David Bowie?
can you do a brief history of oasis and the stone roses
There is a newer version of a Rick Roll where you send someone to a video of someone making a drink with elevator music in the background.
I had no idea about this!
I think it’s called a Cocktail Roll. The prompt before the fake link people use is something like “Finally it’s arrived!- “
0:13 is really important info, guys I promise it’s not a rickroll
I still love this song
This is my favorite video of the day 🎉

My RicknRolling experience was when the song was first out. I was at a bar at a perverbial 1980s club while the tune was BLARRRING. Looked up at the video thinking it sung by a black guy.....
Bryan the Broker was the first person to get Rickrolled
