Today is another great day in the history of the Internet. Unless you’ve been living under a rock in a deep, dark corner of the web, you know who Rick Astley is, what he does and how it can be used to generate endless laughter possibilities. Keep that part in mind when I go over the next piece of information.
Someone named DJ Morgoth did an amazing mashup of Rick’s (in)famous hit “Never Gonna Give You Up” to the music of Nirvana’s Smell Like Teen Spirit. Let me say that again. Someone used Nirvana’s instrumental from “Smell Like Teen Spirit” and added the voice of Rick Astley singing “Never Gonna Give You Up”. If this doesn’t sound awesome by now, please, by all means, do yourself a favor and check the video. Both pieces fit together in a very, very creepy way:

I’m a huge music enthusiast. An audiophile, even. However, and this is not so uncommon I hear, I much prefer the consistence of a song’s lyrics than its melody. I love knowing what the singer says and feels, and you can only truly understand with a good understanding of how emotions translate into music and words. The music part is mostly instinctive, a bass line triggering a feeling in your guts, a guitar riff flipping your heart around, you can’t really learn that. However, it’s within everyone’s grasp to understand what a song says, and I believe it’s important. That’s why I’m going to give you a tip to get the lyrics from every song you love onto your iPhone or iPod Touch. It’s really easy, you don’t have to do much.

First off, I’ll assume you’re using iTunes since you own an iPod or an iPhone. Apple made it so that synchronizing that baby on any other platform is a real bitch, and they’ve greatly succeeded. So open up your iTunes, select a song you like in your library and right-click it to “Get Info”. If you look at the tabs near the top of the popup window, you’ll see a “Lyrics” tab. Clicking on that should simply open the tab with a big empty text area. What we’ll do here is we’ll fill up that box with the song’s lyrics.

Am I the only one who wears his headphones with no music just to be left alone?

This is so fucking great. Search no more. This is what the internet was invented for.

Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Does this guy also offer advice on how to pick up women?”

Well yes, fortunately he does. Videos after the jump.
