I will warn you that once in a great while, I post AI art. I seem to have wound up on a few blocklists because of that.

I always tag it as such, though, and really, I’ve only posted it a few times, like my “Exterminate!” energy drink picture, and the one of Taylor Swift wearing a Dalek shirt…

I think I am starting to get sick, I feel simply awful :sob: I really hope I am not getting a Fever or something like that but haven’t felt too well since the Week started. Oh, well, gonna hope for the best, and it’s just me feeling like crap because of some poor Nights I had recently.

Thank you, you two! I appreciate it, still feeling far from better but right now it’s at least somewhat better.

Pink Pony Club by Chappel Roan has permanently altered my brain chemistry, what a song

10 Likes

I definitely love the cover Rick Astley did of Pink Pony Club, and the original was good, too.

One thing people might not realise is I’ve actually listened to a number of songs sung by Rick Astley, both covers and original. I think he’s a good singer. (And, well, I actually like “Never Gonna Give you Up”…)

Astley is a good singer but suffered from the curse of being seen as a one hit wonder. Rick-rolling was a bit of a joke but actually ended up, I think, making people appreciate the song - and him - in a kinder light. A lot of the cynicism about him and the song has dissipated over time.

It’s unfortunate, since he did have at least two hits: “Together Forever” was pretty popular, too.

But exploring his youtube channel, I end up listening to him covering things like “Ain’t No Sunshine”, “Titanium”, “My Girl”, “Better Now”, and such, along with original songs, like “Keep Singing”, and he turned out to be someone I like listening to…

I hope he’s never gonna give her up!

The Danish connection is probably how he got into Mikkeller. He’s opened a couple Mikkeller bars here in London in partnership with them.

I once met Rick Astley at a car boot sale, he was selling Disney DVDs. I pointed at a few I’d like to buy but when i got to the last DVD i wanted he refused to sell it to me. I asked him why and he said “I’m never gonna give you up”

Yes, we walked our entire year group (90 kids) to a local church for a dramatised Easter story and the walk in the sun and blossom was rather lovely.
