Rick Astley – The Artists

Richard Paul Astley (born 1966) is an English singer, songwriter and radio personality. His 1987 song “Never Gonna Give You Up” was a number 1 hit single in 25 countries and won the 1988 Brit Award for Best British Single.

The Wants To Dance With Me – The Song

She Wants To Dance With Me  is a song written and recorded by English singer-songwriter Rick Astley, released as the lead single from his second studio album, Hold Me in Your Arms (1988). The song was released in United Kingdom on September 12, 1988 by RCA, and became an international success, peaking in the top ten in many countries, including Canada, where it topped the chart, and the US and the UK, where it reached number six. In 2019, Astley recorded and released a “reimagined” version of the song for his album The Best of Me. Astley was given the go-ahead to compose the first single from his second album, after rejecting producers Stock Aitken Waterman’s intended lead track, “Nothing Can Divide Us”—which was then given to Jason Donovan. The singer composed the track in the style of Whitney Houston’s hit, “I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)” in an effort to win the confidence of Pete Waterman, who was a huge fan of Houston’s song
