Me neither, until today. It's an online gag where you send someone a cool-sounding link (say, "Lindsay Lohan does calculus"), which really takes you to a video of Rick Astley's 1987 hit 'Never Gonna Give You Up."

The urge to rewrite them is often irresistible. "You're the Top" is a prime example - perhaps there never was a song that so invited imitation and parody. Songwriter Kerry Prep produced a counter-version titled "You're a flop":
