You got rickrolled in 2026. Congratulations!

It worked best when YT had banner ads instead of video ads. Today you get Wix rolled for a minute or two before you get to the Rick.

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

There are people who watch ads on Youtube?

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Saw an interview with him last night. They were totally unprepared to film that video, amateur hour. He was young and scared shitless, made up the dance on the spot. Guy doing backflips? "Hey guys! Watch what I can do!" In the video he went. There was a guy yelling out his apartment window for them the shut the fuck up down there. Wardrobe? Nope, those were his own clothes.

1.5 billion views. Who knew this song would reach such fame decades after its release.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

Not nearly as big of a story but you should hear about BER - The Night Begins to Shine..

  • Written in 2005 as an assignment to "create an 80s-style song for a music library's
  • In 2014, appeared in an episode of Teen Titans Go for fewer than 10s as a throwaway joke.
  • Immediately Hit #23 in Billboard charts
  • Inspired TTG to make followup miniseries with covers by bands like Fallout Boy and Ceelo Green

To make you check and rickroll you indirectly. Iťs an edited screenshot, you don't see metadata of unavailable videos

[–] Hoimo@ani.social 13 points 1 day ago
