What is this video meme?
A Rickroll is a bait-and-switch link: it promises something else, then opens Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up” video.
What does the original show?
The original is a music video of Rick Astley singing and dancing, with a microphone and indoor sets.
How can you use the format?
The joke is the unexpected reveal. For your own version, use a harmless surprise and music you have rights to use.
Playback depends on your region and the publisher’s settings.
