The 80’s was the fall of what Britain, and indeed Europe had built up since the decline of their own industrial age: a quality of life, or at least an expectancy of such. Bigotry began to fad into the past and racial prejudice lost moral acceptance. However we failed to see the industrial age continued/began somewhere else, and our own very elected were to promote it with a view to exploitation, disregarding the ecological warnings from the ”stupid few” not to promote it. Enter Thatcher, and her crush the rights of ordinary workers. The YUPPIE was born- make loads of money, business business business. POP MUSIC WAS OF THE 80’S REPRESENTS THE IDIOCY OF THE TIME.
I think ”Rickrolling” is a collective unconscious symbol of the 80’s flippant attitude, and where we are today. Like a bad dream you don’t wish to have Rick keeps popping up singing about ”a full commitment ….” funny enough when that era was the era of betrayal, to commit to a better realistic future.
We’re no strangers to ….
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment’s what I’m thinking of
You wouldn’t get this from any other …..

Well apparently, Rick Astley isn’t the only former singer celeb being rolled. MC Hammer has now fallen victim to the craze, as people are now getting “HammerRolled”.

A website located at http://HammerRolled.com explains this version of the good ‘ole Rick Roll.
