Rick Astley was a surprise hit over the weekend at the U.K.’s Glastonbury festival.

The ‘80s pop singer performed two sets at the festival. His first set featured him performing some of his biggest hits and covering the AC/DC classic “Highway to Hell.”

Astley told the crowd before the song, which saw him playing drums and singing, “I was a 15-year-old kid in my dad’s greenhouse and I played [‘Highway to Hell’] to death. I broke this record learning the drums to it.”

The covers didn’t stop there. Astley’s second performance at Glastonbury saw him join forces with Blossoms and perform a set of Smiths covers.

Fittingly, Astley closed the show with his 1987 hit “Never Gonna Give You Up” and gave thanks to everyone involved in the set-up, stating that he “never dreamed” he’d get to play at the U.K.s most famous music festival.
