瑞克搖
瑞克搖(英語:Rickrolling)是來自瑞克·艾斯里在1987年發行的歌曲〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉而引發的網路爆紅。
此現象屬網路惡搞文化:某人提供一個超連結,例如介紹一部好萊塢的懸疑片,或者講評一則歐亨利的極短篇,點進去卻只見〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉的音樂錄影帶,瑞克正在跳舞。當某人點進了上述的「偽鏈結」中,英語國家網友便會說他們被「Rickrolled」(也被拼成Rickroll'd,意思為(被)瑞克搖了)。
歷史[編輯]
瑞克搖的來源是4chan的/v/板(影片遊戲板),在2007年5月。[1] 2008年之後,這網路爆紅在許多其他網站也變流行,[2] 結果得到主流媒體關注。[3] 隨著惡作劇的散播,有關的瑞克搖影片於2008年錄得1400萬點擊。[4][5] 這些數據均指出了總點擊人次,非點擊者人數。有些時候,瑞克搖已超越了網上鏈結,變得十分煩擾,甚至於公開地方亦然。[6] 當艾斯里於2008年梅斯百貨公司感恩節巡遊表演(一個數而百萬計的觀眾觀看的表演)中表現突出,此惡作劇更達高潮。[7]
1987年,艾斯里於其專輯《每當你孤獨時》中收錄〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉此曲。[8] 此歌是他的主打曲,曾於數國際歌曲排行榜(如告示牌百大單曲榜,Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks和UK Top 40)上名列冠軍。為了推廣此曲,艾的公司便將之拍成艾斯里的首個音樂錄像,並安排他在其中跳舞。[9] 而在2019年知名的相片及影片交易網站onlyfans發生了rick roll騙案令該迷因再次爆紅
美國相關活動[編輯]
山達基的抗議[編輯]
〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉一曲因與此網路爆紅現象有關,被Project Chanology於2008年2月播放及表演,用以對抗山達基。[11][12]於2008年2月10日於紐約市、華盛頓特區、倫敦、聖路易、底特律和西雅圖的示威,示威者邊播放此曲,邊透過喇叭呼喊Never Gonna Let You Down的口號,被The Guardian稱為「現場對山達基的Rickrolling」(a live rick-rolling of the Church of Scientology)[13] 為回應山達基派設立的反Anonymous的一網頁,Project Chanology設立了一個相似網址的網頁,內容正是〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉的MV。[13]
東華盛頓大學籃球賽[編輯]
2008年3月,東華盛頓大學的四人女子籃球賽被Rickroll了。賽事開始前,一學生模仿艾斯里以跳舞及「咪嘴」形式(即播放艾斯里的歌曲,但以嘴唇模仿作自己唱歌)表演〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉。後來,一段混有賽前Rickroll和半場休息的合成片段被上傳到Youtube。[6][14] 於第三張圖片中更有支持者展示有「山達基是殺人魔」。另外,也有人扮成東華盛頓大學的吉祥物,手持Xenu.net(反山達基)的紙牌,二者皆為前述Anonymous向山達基的抗議。
紐約時報原來的報道是指有比賽被Rickroll「擾亂」了(原文作interrupted)。2008年3月27日,報內刊有的澄清啟事指出並無擾亂情況發生,卻是蒲·費沙爾、大文·佩里(扮成艾斯里的學生)和戴夫·庫克(大學體育資訊長)的惡作劇。[6][14][15][16][17][18]
紐約大都會[編輯]
2008年4月4日,以Fark.com為首的許多網路團體[19] 促請讀者投〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉作為紐約大都會賽季的第8首入圍歌曲。大都會設立了一個網路投票以選擇歌曲並留下一個供填下歌曲名字的空格。紐約大都會其後於4月7日宣布〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉以五百萬票勝出。[20]大都會其後發現此為網友惡作劇,遂不使用艾斯里的歌曲,於4月8日宣布把此曲剔除於表演名單外。[21]
美國職棒網站其後聲稱該曲是因為支持者因艾斯里而操控投票,即Rickroll。此曲在主場開幕的時候被播放,全場傳出一片噓聲。[22]
2008年愚人節[編輯]
2008年愚人節和接下來的數週,很多看似是碰巧的Rickroll始於網際網路及新聞媒體出現。YouTube首頁所有特色影片被指往Rickroll短片。該惡作劇於在首頁顯示前曾於國際版展示。[23]
社區部落格網站LiveJournal宣布於同日新增一名會員至其諮詢委員會,名為「rickastley」,點進去該鏈結會自動重新導向至Rickroll影片。[24]
網上商店ThinkGeek在他們的主頁宣傳一個新產品Betamax與HD DVD轉換器.在產品介紹頁內的示範影片又為Rickroll。[25]
透過電話,惡作劇網站PrankDialer.com聲稱在四月一日Rickroll了超過三萬人。[26]
電台電視[編輯]
2007年6月21日,Rickroll發生於深夜秀「和卡森·戴利的Last Call」(Last Call with Carson Daly)。卡森說他將播放他於網上找到的有關芭黎絲·希爾頓和巴思達·萊姆斯(Busta Rhymes)的影片。不過,播放的卻是〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉音樂錄像,他指他已Rickroll了觀眾。[27]
一些電台,如辛辛那提的WKFS[28] 也跟上了Rickroll熱,於節目中插播Never Gonna Let You Down。
2008年4月4日的E!頻道節目《The Soup》,本來介紹L.A.刺青客的季末,但播放了〈Never Gonna Give You Up〉音樂錄像。[29]
電影彩蛋[編輯]
在2018年上映的迪士尼動畫電影《無敵破壞王2》中,其最後的彩蛋是由影片的主角破壞王拉爾夫借「《冰雪奇緣2》的嘗鮮預告片」的名義翻唱了本歌曲。
