Ah well, can't have everything perfect.
Yeah, the fact that he couldn't lip sync his own song, is somewhat sad.
He probably had to do it eight times or so along the parade route. I like the announcer's explanation at the end; it's like he hadn't a clue what the hell he was talking about.

I got Rick Rolled at work. Head office sends us a CD we have to play as the store music for a month and it was one of them sometime last spring. No one else in the store had a clue. I tried to explain it to one guy and I got the eyebrow wtf you talking about look.
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade unofficially Rick Rolled. The Internet phenomena demonstrated and "planned" in an official nationally televised function. It's not officially Rick Rolled unless people don't know it's going to happen and event organizers are running around attempting to stop it.

Wait, how do you slur words when you're lip syncing?
I watched the video and while he didn't appear entirely thrilled, I didn't see any big problems with his lip syncing.

It was the audience that got Rick Rolled, not the parade organizers.

Easy - you go to say the wrong word and quickly realise you're not saying the same thing as the song that's playing and instead slur the word you were going to sing into the one that should be sung.

Can you lip read? Well, i can't but it looked like he wasn't properly remembering the song.
I was too busy helping the father o' mine, but I went to my bedroom to check my cell phone and had about 6 texts from people such as my best friend and Kannon saying "Holy sh*t, the tv just Rick Rolled me!"

Hilarious. I wonder how awestruck Astley really is about this whole thing.
Living in a nightmare hellride.
Maybe him and Chuck Norris can form some sort of support group.

Now no one can ever do it again because it'll never be that good.

Holy crap! That is phenomenal. It is made even more awesome with the crowd not knowing what in the hell is going on.

Nice to see this meme finally dealt its death blow. Good riddance.

That.... was.... astonishing. Also, it makes me love "Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends" that much goddamn more.

Rick is looking kind of scary there.
That was just all kinds of awesome. Can't believe they actually did that..
When I get sad, I just stop being sad and be awesome instead. True Story
Agreed. I'm still chuckling about it.

I saw it. It was amazing. The whole thing was dampened a bit by the fact that I then had to explain it to my wife.

I was more concerned about the "Princess Clique" singing about giving the happy ending.

If you had actually linked to the standard Rick Roll, then the world would probably have imploded into an Astley-based singularity.

Wow, something interesting happened on network TV!
Also, did I mention VYPER DRIVE!!!?
