When it was released in 1987, it became a #1 hit in the US, UK, and all around the world, but that initial success was nothing compared to what it would become with the rise of the internet. Over the last 15 years, the meme of Never Gonna Give You Up has refused to die, and at this point its opening tom fill may be the most recognizable drum part ever recorded, but with all that attention, it feels like the song itself has become secondary to the joke.
