The answer is, as always, Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley.

What’s your answer??? I want access to your bank account. And your madness.
One that bugged me the other day was “What is the name of your first ex-boyfriend?”. The number of people who retroactively deserve the term ‘ex-boyfriend’ really varies depending on how charitable I’m feeling that day.
