Some have compared Rick Astely's voice with that of Colonel Abrams(!).
"Never Gonna Give You Up" was a sizeable hit in 1987 and comes with lots of sugar coated fun. Another late 80's Stock / Aitken / Waterman production. What didn't these guys produce in the 1980's?

A pretty good song that received lots of air play, including prime-time. Not a CLASSIC, but a solid 10 on my scale from 1-10.
