Barry Manilow is releasing a new album where he sings the "The Greatest Songs Of The Eighties"(and oxymoron if ever I heard one) and right out the door he 'out-Rick Astley's'Rick Astley!
Awwww. Looks to me like you all Internet geeks Cyrus are gonna have to find a new prank site to wild goose chase people to.
(Seriously, how scary is Barry's facelift? Yikes!)
Yeah i've been Rick Rolled a few times, and it's pretty annoying. Does anyone in here know why they prank us with a Rick Astley clip anyway?

I bet Leon has one of those Fanilow license plate covers. Man, I'll never forget my Dad's 8-track of Barry - those were the days. Seriously though, my heavy metal, head banging (yet respectable and brilliant hospital VP) husband made me stand in line for Barry tickets 10 years ago on my day off and I gotta say, the man can really put on a show!
Whoever actually wrote "Never Gonna Give You Up" is probably angrier than any living human being alive, because his/her tune is all over the Internet and it's near impossible to collect royalties on any of those publishings!! What a sad, sorry bastard. (Just kidding... I hope they're doing fine cashwise.)
But ASCAP and BMI probably fire random employees anytime they hear the word "Rickroll."

I'm failing to see the "ha-ha" here, you honestly believe the prank will stop because Barry Manilow made a cover? At much, they're just giving a different video to keep rickrolling. Sure, is not Rick Astley, but at this point, who in the internet doesn't now the song?
The Austin Spill Party 2009 is coming along nicely. I've already got a few things in the works. Now all I need is an idea about how many people will be there.
