Before this came into the public eye with the recent and more exposed version of Rickrollin’, I wanted Rick Astley to be played while opponents of the Steelers had the ball.  Rickrolling had already been on the internet for sometime and was an obscure “meme”. Since then, it’s become the unofficial theme song for the group that has no official members, Anonymous, in its quest against the dangerous cult known as Scientology.

It’s an anti-Scientology protest, and across the street, a dozen or so warmly dressed young people begin to dance and sing along, waving their picket signs in rhythm to the familiar tune.

In a rare interview, the British pop-star gives his view on the recent reprisal of his 1987 classic, Never Gonna Give You Up, and it’s appeal to the young and surreal.
