    it's part of the online effort to flood the mtv competition with rick astley, so he can be recognised for the great artist he is :p

    Never Gonna Give You Up was number one the day I was born.. I have a strange affinity for it. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 205 ✭✭Prefabsprouter


    One day people will eventually recognise Astley for the pure genius that he is............ Dont know why he has never played Whelans!!!! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 263 ✭✭rowlandbrowner


    regardless of your thoughts on the rick-roll meme, this is a great way to show up an arcane institution like the EMA awards. Mr. Astley being crowned best act ever is no more absurd than some of the “suggested” artists for this vauge award.

    I knew a guy who dressed up as rick astley ,wore the suits,combed the hair bobby vee style ( ask your ma ..no your grandma :D ) and did the wobbling dance legs routine .

    He actually convinced himself he was rick astley for a while

    (delusions of something or other ) :D

    He isnt Dave Young, the comedian by any chance???

    No it wasnt him


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,111 ✭✭✭MooseJam


    done, I would imagine even if he gets the most votes they won't recognise it and just pick the number two

    That's so retarded, it actually tells you to vote again to make sure your favourite 'artsit' is nominated.

    I hate MTV.

    I'VE AN EVER BETTER WAY TO SHOW UP THE MTV AWARDS FOR THE BIG LOAD OF SH1TE IT REALLY IS!

    don't bother watching it, don't bother being convinced to vote for anyone by stupid computer nerds who think they're funny - just switch off and go out, thats the best way to give MTV the finger.

    Rick bloody Astley; this stupid joke has been going on for years now, as was pointed out by someone else.

    The Greatest Hits compilation is actually quite good. But I agree with your point about the MTV Awards being a load of ****.

    Nominees for best ever act are
    * Britney Spears
    * Christina Aguilera
    * Green Day
    * Rick Astley
    * Tokio Hotel
    * U2

    Give me a break. The only ones there that warrant it are maybe U2 but only due to their earlier albums.

    pfft, if you're going to vote for him, vote for him using the python script.

    why in the name of Astley would anyone watch the mtv awards?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101


    So he didn't get presented with it on stage. I call shenanigans. If anything, this should encourage everyone to Rick Roll every MTV event


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,599 ✭✭✭✭ShawnRaven


    Why the hell would anyone want to vote in Rick Ghastly? I was 11 in 1987 when that bloody song was released. It sucked then and it sucks now.

    Reliving the recession is bad enough without having to relive Rick Astley as well, next thing you'll be supporting a Sinitta comeback!

    Arrrgh!
