His era-defining classic ?Never Gonna Give You Up' topped charts the world over and catapulted the young Lancastrian on a journey that would encompass 8 consecutive UK Top 10 hits and 40 million sales.

It's been 36 years since he first shot to fame, yet Rick Astley is now arguably a more prominent force in popular culture than he ever was. The endearingly boyish 57-year-old is still winning over new fans, whether he's performing with Foo Fighters, Take That or Blossoms; becoming an unlikely social media sensation; or simply embracing the unending love that greets his era-defining smash ‘Never Gonna Give You Up' which was boosted by its use in an intensely affecting scene in ‘Ted Lasso'. Indeed, since returning to #1 in 2016 with ‘50', Rick has enjoyed the strongest run of album chart positions of his entire career.
