This is an educational Vocal Coach analysis of Rick Astley’s iconic 1987 hit “Never Gonna Give You Up”, written and produced by Stock Aitken Waterman. After working as an assistant/tea boy for them for two years, Rick’s debut track shot to No. 1 in both the UK and US, launching 21 year old Rick Astley into instant pop stardom. But since then, it’s becoming one of the internet’s most enduring memes.

From its tempo to its gentle surprises and elements of repeated structure, this song is designed to trigger repeated dopamine hits. Syncopated rhythms, playful performance energy and unexpected musical placement all work together to keep listeners hooked. Watch this video to find out why you should smile next time you’re Rickrolled…
