Clearly the next step is for someone to create a piano roll of the song, which would be the Rickroll Roll. Now all that’s left is to find a working player piano to sneak it into….
I am so hoping Caltech did this.
They got the rhythm wrong…
It also doesn’t really work with the number of lines and whatnot… Kind of a failed prank if you ask me.
