Never Gonna Give You it’s a fugue

Never Gonna Give You it’s a 4-voice fugue! I composed this fugue on “Never Gonna Give You Up“, the famous 80’s pop song by Rick Astley. I changed some pitches of the subject to make it more Bachian, with tonal harmony for a better counterpoint. But I used some non-stylistic voice-leading, for example some unresolved sevenths, that make a modern sound. And welcome back Organ sound from Musescore! Headphones recommend. As always, don’t take this fugue too much seriously. But let me know if you liked it in the comments. P.S. The final Bb in the pedal part and also at measure 22 doesn’t exist as written, it should be an octave higher, sorry I forgot to transpose it during the video editing. As well as other passages in the pedal part, which are too complicated, they need to be moved on the manual. I love composing fugues with pop/meme subjects.
