Never Gonna Give You Up, performed by Rick Astley, was released in 1987 and later became the centre of the rickroll prank, where a misleading link unexpectedly plays the song. The joke spread widely online in the late 2000s and has remained a familiar internet gag ever since. This version recreates the chorus in a chiptune style using FamiTracker, a tracker for composing music in the style of the Nintendo Entertainment System sound chip, giving the familiar melody a retro game feel that suits short videos and streams.

A chiptune remake of Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up, played with bright 8-bit tones. It is used for rickroll pranks in videos, streams and memes.
This short clip turns the familiar chorus of Never Gonna Give You Up into a retro video game tune, with square-wave leads, simple percussion and a bouncy, upbeat rhythm that instantly signals a joke is coming. The melody stays instantly recognisable despite the stripped-back chiptune arrangement, so listeners usually smile before the punchline lands. It sounds playful rather than polished, like a level theme from an old console, and that contrast makes the prank feel harmless and nostalgic instead of annoying.
