Dammit, what’s a guy gotta do to get more Rick Astley covers?

Tay’s rendition of “Never Gonna Give You Up” was like a fall teaser for a summer blockbuster. Left me needing more.

Still, you gotta admit he’s got some pipes. With voice like that he’s got a career, even if it’s voicing commercials.

I think we all know this is Tay’s greatest hit:
Rick Roll!

Wow.

That’s almost a monotone, one phrase rendition.

If I hadn’t clicked the links in the comments, I would have thought AP was goofin’ on us with a Karaoke Robot.

But a robot should have pre-programmed EQ, FX, and rythmic patterns embedded in the software.

But,in either case, real or robot. It’s back to the drawing board, or the rehearsal hall.

Tell me why I’m wrong

Would, if I could. Can’t, so I won’t.

He didn’t sound quite so good in this take.

Now that’s funny. The stream-of-consciousness lyrics of the spoof reminds me of a traffic guy I used to work with in radio: same basso profundo pipes, poor application. He used to find ways to stretch his reports out with inanities like “plenty of sun glare on the East-bound drives this morning, be sure to grab your shades on the way out.” Meanwhile, we (in another studio) would be saying things (off air) like, “be sure to take your keys before you start the car…” “don’t forget to push the garage door opener before backing out” and sometimes have ourselves in stitches by the time he’d toss back to us. (Okay, maybe you had to be there…)

I still like his voice. It’s awesome!

Your not wrong, Allah. I thought the same thing. He’s got a good voice and great lungs but the entire song was just a continuous loop of the first 4 measures.

OK, AP. You took for 30 seconds on this one.

I guess I shouldn’t complain because it could be worse. You could always go on a Lohan kick for a couple of weeks.

The dude can’t carry a tune. Sure he’s got James Earl Jones’ voice, but he can’t sing worth a damn. Askheaves’ Rickroll link proves that.

I decided not to listen. His chocolate rain song was stuck in my head for hours.
I almost needed therapy.

Umm I watched that other post and knew what this would give but I still clicked it to watch. I guess I need a vacation. Its one of those vids where its funny for about 15 seconds, then it drags on painfully for a few minutes then gets so bad its funny again near the end. As it fades out I realize that yet again I have squandered several minutes of my life watching something that should only be viewed by… well it shouldnt really be viewed at all.

Just more proof that the Internet will destroy the human race.

His version of “never gonna give you up”, makes you wonder if he isnt the bastard child of Kermit and James Earl Jones

So…is he living his life with his internet dream?

He’s got potential…but he’s in love with his own voice.

jdpaz on July 27, 2007 at 5:28 PM

wouldn’t you be?

he’s suck-all at songwriting, but he should be announcing movie trailers.

Horribly slow news day to abuse us with Tay Zonday.
