Apologize

iRye · Apr 6, 2008

I would like to apologize to Mac-Forums. I embarresed the group as a unit (mainly the people who got rick roll'd.) Along with my sincere apology, I would love to let you hear the beautiful piano work of a person who really knows what he's doing when he sits down at a piano and could be professional

the best what i've done piano cover

I'm serious. You won't get Rick Rolld if you click on this link...

Aghhhh! Rick Rolled again!

iRye · Apr 6, 2008

I apologized Derek, why would you be so cruel and trick my valued fellow MF members in to believing that they'd be Rick Rolled again! Shame on you!

Well iRye, I'm glad you recognize you embarassed the group as a unit, and have duly apologized. Here's some real piano work that I can assure is NOT a matter of being rick rolled (whatever the heck that means):

I ought to put the URL to a video of U2 with Edge playing one of his solos just to get you back!

You never told me your jokes about his playing by the way!

You're right, I didn't. I figured I'd keep it to myself. (Say this one to an irishman, and you're insuring a fight, by the way.)

Why do they call him "The Edge"?

Because he's on "the edge" of having some talent.

Thanks. Gave me the laugh I needed!

Rick Rolled? Who comes up with this stuff? I have an idea for a new one:

Click here to see the "Extended Even More" Extended Editions of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. And then link to Cinnabon or Pillsbury.

You've been CINNAMON ROLLED!!

You know you're too old when you have no freakin' idea what "rick rolled" means! :Grimmace:

it really is amazing what entertains people. Here we spend hundreds of dollars on blu-ray players and thousands of dollars of home theater equipment to watch multi-million dollar-produced movies. Yet, we can still be amused by low-res videos on youtube of things as trivial and stupid as a panda sneezing! It reminds me of parents who buy their kids expensive toys, only to have the kid play with the box it came in.

I guess I'm at that perfect age where I'm young enough to know what it means AND old enough to actually remember the song from when it was a #1 hit.

Had to look it up.

Of just check out this thread here on M-F

There's also a Wiki article describing the phenomenon (naturally)

I'd pay good money to see Steve do this.

fleurya · Apr 7, 2008

^^ Nice! That'd be a great "one more thing" prank. Maybe Rick can be the musical talent for the next big event.

10:34 a.m.: Still waiting for Willie, but Mets COO Jeff Wilpon just confirmed that Rick Astley’s ’80s hit “Never Gonna Give You Up” will be the official 8th inning sing-a-long tune after fans voted in on Fark.com blog.

Is it too late to request Milli Vanilli or Rick Springfield?

4:03 p.m.: Geoff Jenkins pinch hit with the bases loaded and popped up to second base. The Phils are leading 5-2 and Heilman needs to retire Werth to prevent a disaster…and Werth pops out to right. Still, the boos are raining down.

SNY announcers Ron Darling, Gary Cohen and Keith Hernandez question why Randolph doesn’t bring in lefty specialist Pedro Feliciano.

To add insult to injury, Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up” is indeed the eighth inning sing-a-long tune.
