Hawkwing Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 So, I was at the RIT hockey game tonight, and our band was playing a song. Next thing I know, they transition over to another song, and I've been playing so much Chrono Trigger lately, I thought they were playing Robo's theme. Turned out it was just a good ol' Rick Rolling. I did some Google searching, luckily I'm not the only one who has had this happen to them. There's even YouTube videos of the song behind Rick Astley's song. I hope you all liked my anecdote. I guess we can just turn this thread into a mistaken music thread. Whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkwing Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 I was more talking about how I had mistaken a song for video game music. I wasn't trying to talk about the actual Robo/Rick Roll. Hence why I said "I guess we can just turn this thread into a mistaken music thread." Not "Let's discuss the exact thing I was talking about."

Strike911 Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 The only time I've ever really mistook songs from games (and vice versa) was from the first Toejam and Earl game (and maybe the 2nd one), although, they intentionally tried to imitate popular funk songs at the time for the soundtrack, so I'm unsure if that really counts.

Saunders Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I can honestly say I never noticed the similarities before watching the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunnowhathuh Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Never noticed that before. Can't listen to that song the same way again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinj212 Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hrm. If I post this on facebook, does that count as a Rick Roll for those that click on it? Didn't post meaning to Rick Roll, only meant to point out the similarities. Still, I guess it counts as a Rick Rollin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yangfeili Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Last time my friend was playing CT, we kept making up lyrics for the Robo song every time it started up. "Always TONIGHT, we'll be together..." Can't remember the rest, I just know there was some sort of breathy spoken monologue that started "Girl..."
