This has been making the internet rounds today. It is a highly entertaining and very sweet 20 minute documentary about Rick, the song and how it was written, developed, became a hit and eventually a world wide meme. Great to see how happy he is with his life at the end.
Then, the mash up you did not know you needed. NSFW for profanity.
Apparently, the Foo Fighters were playing in a festival and learned that that Rick Astley was there. They quickly teach themselves Never Gonna Give You Up, and realize it has a similar structure as Smells Like Teen Spirit. They invite Rick on stage .
Never Gonna Give You Up is already perfect but somehow Dave Grohl makes everything better.

The Foo Fighters video is awesome. Grohl tells the story in his memoir. He was playing in a music festival and was asked to include a cover song. He noticed that Risk Astley was on the program as well, and so they worked out Never Gonna Give You Up. He said that he was attracted to it because the chord progressions were similar to Smells Like Teen Spirit, which you can hear in the video. When it was their turn to go on, he noticed Astley back stage and invited him to come out.
I'm not a big Foo Fighters fan. I can listen, but also take it or leave it.
But I can watch Dave Grohl sharing his stage with random people videos for hours. It's what he was born to do.
Saw the Celebrating David Bowie concert at Sony Music Hall tonight. Small venue gets smaller when Angelo Moore (Fishbone) surfs the tabletops.
