Seemingly not the same folks who did HIchop! So there are two groups recording pop songs in Klingon.

What's Klingon for "two passé memes that are twice as passé when combined"?

This is surprisingly well done and got a lol out of my friends and me. Pro tip: did you know this tune is relatively easy to sing even for people who have little singing skill? Depending on how jaded your audience is, it can totally work for karaoke. You might have to practice the pronunciation of this version though.

I think you can find that definition here.

Klingons will never be passe. That being said, to rickroll is without... honor.

Try anything from the Hedwig and the Angry Inch soundtrack. My voice is all kinds of busted up, but I can sing any song from that thing and hit every damn note. So if you ever find a bar with Hedwig songs on the karaoke machine, you're good. (Also: awesome bar!)

Rickrolling is universal, it seems.

This entertained me greatly.

I feel that even though the source material of this might be newer, it is truly the more passé.

Rickrolling is a dish best served cold.

Just have to say, this was the best Rick roll I ever got sucked in by. Because it involves Muppets.

Would have been better if he could carry a tune.

Today is a good day to rickroll.

Does it even count as rickrolling if there's no surprise involved? This is exactly what it says on the tin.

That PetaQ Rick Astley, from House Newton-le-Willows, has no honor, and he adorns his hair with targ manure. He is a bigger threat to the mighty Klingon empire than tribbles and must be stopped at all costs.

You have not experienced Astley until you have heard him in the original Klingon.

The new rickroll is the consenting rickroll.
