who remembers rick astley?

how could we forget him?  but what ever happened to him?  another of my little sister's favourites but i must admit that i quite liked his voice (and dance moves).

don't you just love it!!

from wikipedia

"After 1993, Astley decided to retire from the music industry at the young age of 27 deciding that family life was more important. During Astley's time out of the music business, he raised his daughter Emilie, born in 1992. Thus, for much of the 1990s and early 2000s, Astley remained largely out of the spotlight. One notable musical appearance by Astley during retirement was as a backing singer on The Lion King soundtrack in 1994.^"  apparently his wife is a hot-shot film producer and he prefers to stay at home with his daughter.

then

now

a youngster - born 1966

i really do beat around the bush.  the whole reason of this little blurb about rick astley is that i needed to find something to write about him because i really wanted to use this pie chart:-

and while you at it, what about this one?

did you ever wonder about the lyrics of this song and what "that" really was or is?

I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No, I won't do that

I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that

scary - he was pretty scary. 

born 1947 - thank goodness he is older than me

 

ok enough nonsense for now.  hope you enjoy the pie charts.

ok byeeee...
