Listen: Rick Astley re-records iconic track with wrong lyrics for hearing loss campaign

Rick Astley has recorded his legendary song “Never Gonna Give You Up” with the wrong lyrics to raise awareness of hearing loss.

The singer reimagined the 1987 hit with new lyrics to encourage people to get their hearing checked as part of a Specsavers campaign.

Astley, 57, shared that he has had hearing aids fitted after getting tested recently.

He said he needed them fitted “probably a result of playing the drums as a kid and working in the music industry.”

“I’d encourage anyone to get their hearing tested if they notice any changes, so they don’t lose the sounds or music they love,” Astley added.
