"the new rick rolld" is a video posted by YouTube user wtfradio1000 on January 2, 2012. It is a meme on the SiIvaGunner channel.
Overview[]
The video is an edited clip of a previous video by the same user, "the most l.o.l videio". It shows two images of Rick Astley from the music video for "Never Gonna Give You Up" (the video associated with the Rickrolling meme) placed over a still image of the Nyan Cat video. The audio is seemingly random notes, which are D, D#, E, E, D#, D, E, on a synthesized piano. The name "wtfradio1000" then quickly fades in. Also present at the beginning is a single frame, left over from "the most l.o.l videio", of a slightly stretched Coca-Cola bottle, as well as the Internet Explorer logo with an arrow pointing towards it in the top left.
The video is 1 second long and has the description "lololol". It was also most likely made in Windows Movie Maker due to the default font of the "wtfradio1000" text and the fade-in of the text.
The video quickly became popular in the YTPMV community and was used quite frequently in YTPMVs, due to the audio being easily pitch-shiftable.
