Bon Scott was once asked jokingly whether he was the AC or DC in the band. His reply was telling in its symbolism of his role: "Naw, I'm the lightning flash in the middle." ⚡
Lol..Bon Scott (and AC-DC lol) were the biggest working class Scottish chavs in rock and roll lol...but they embodied the spirit of black blues based rock and roll...😍
Best quote from him, one of the greatest of all time :D He showed the real rock ´n´roll... no prisoners asked for. Full speed up to his death. But what a life as the greatest rock star.
The secret of AC/DC is, they are so tight any virgin would be very unhappy about :D Also the brutal energy the emit. It is unbelivable... the only band that sounds life as good as in the studio, even better. Esp the early records. They mostly get from a gig into the studio and brought the energy into the records.
Absolutely! I even saw them at StAlbans High School! 70's in Melbourne, a Pub on every corner, and a live band in each every Saturday night! So many awesome groups, Thorpey, Chain, Stars, Daddy Cool, LRB, just so many, running the gammit of style and genre. We were spoilt, blessed, to grow up in Aus during the 60's 70's into 80's! We were all Eagle rocking!
And that's how Rosie remained in the history and her name became known to billions of people who have listened this ACDC song. Rosie apparently died from drugs few year later after meeting Bon, Bon also passed away, but they both live in this song and will go to the future generations after we are just dust..
@@artromano2419 I told a young woman I work with about this song. Apparently, there's a Web site where she could enter a woman's measurements and it would produce a silhouette so she could see what that looked like. Cracked her up, completely. "Whole Lotta" describes Rosie pretty well. 😮 😁
Someone found the real Rosie when researching for a book about the lads. From memory there was also a photo of her in the book, and by today's standards, she wasn't all that big. Unfortunately, she had a tough life and died young. Originally from Queenstown in Tasmania, she moved to Melbourne and had a flat near the lads in St Kilda where she plied her trade. As Bon suggests....when it "come to loving, she steals the show".
@@shegocrazy Yeah, I read an article about that not long ago. They found out that she was Rose-Marie Garcia. She was large, tall with red hair. It was sad to hear that she died of a drug overdose at the age of 22 about a year before Bon died.
What makes Bon Scott's voice so iconic is the snark and sass in his tone. I see it as a precursor of the whiny, pouty, punk-pop sound of Green Day and their multitude of imitators; can I get a witness? Great analysis, Bethany!
Bon Scott just dripped sarcasm, innuendo and laughter you can tell that when he was singing\fronting the band that was were he knew he belonged. RIP Bon
First time I saw them was Sept. 1980. Bon passed earlier that year, Back in Black had just come out. And Angus, throughout the entire concert, had more energy than all of us put together. He made the Energizer Bunny look like a petrified tortoise.
@@Roh_Echt i feel auld already mate 🤣🤣 what a time to be alive though, for you obviously. I was 8 or 9 before i was introduced to ac dc, iron maiden, Metallica. All were established by that time. Wouldve been amazing to witness the growth of it all.
One of my all time favorite AC/DC songs! The drive it has is just insane! Bon Scott’s vocals always give so much to the overall sound of their songs (along with the amazing music obviously), making them so exciting. I think your description of his voice being its own entity is accurate. Super fun reaction!
Was fortunate enough to see these guys in 1977 (yes I'm old). Of all the shows and bands I've been blessed to see, no band worked harder to please their audience than them.
Malcom would have been as good as lead guitarist as Angus, but as he once said "i could not drink so much or have so many chicks ".... so he gave that role to Angus.... but Malcoms rhythms are perfect.
In Oz the first time I saw them on Countdown I knew they were going to be mega stars. I think most Aussies love this group especially during Bon Scott's days. He was the quintessential larrikin. Great reaction.
We Aussies don't move our lips and jaw as much as Brits and Americans when we speak. Guess Bon extended that to his singing. RIP Bon ... though legendary rockers never really die ❤
You might enjoy the Geordie version of this Pet ... From a live gig with The giant inflatable Rosie on her steam train and tens of thousands of bonkers fans. 😉🇬🇧😎🧙🏻♂️🔥
So much appreciate your analysis and appreciation of this song with Bon and the band. An aside, I was bought this album by my girlfriend, at my request for my 16th or 17th birthday when it came out. I gave it one play and never touched it again. 43 Years later! I can't get enough of Bon and the band, just amazing energy and a special time. Thankyou ❤.
hands down the best version, this is AC/DC, this is Bon, this is Angus... this whole song just rocks from beginning to end... there is something in this sound that's engaging, hypnotizing and just awesomely massive... play it loud!
Saw them blasting "Long Way to the Top" off the back of a semi-trallier truck in Melbourne back in the 70s. Iconic video. Bon pointed to me and shouted something like "how ya doing, young fella?". I'll never forget that.
A friend of my mum's was an AccaDacca groupie back in the day. She said in her whole life she's NEVER seen anyone come close to putting away what Bon did. Alcohol and powder, enough to wipe out a heard of elephants
Loved your reaction to this classic song that remains in AC/DC’s set list to this day and yes, they are on tour now as we speak in Europe! I was fortunate enough to meet them way back in 1985 in Toronto and was even one of 10 Angus look a likes on the speakers to start their Who Made Who concert! Great bunch of guys and very shy. Except, Johnson was very chatty and humorous! Cheers!
You said it right, Bon Scott was his own entity of vocal production, not just singing, but roaring, talking, being loud and yet it doesn't feel like screaming - This is hard rock and roll at its best, as exciting as ever.
After being away for a few weeks, it's such a treat to find time to sit down to binge on Bethany's analysis videos for a few hours. I always learn new things and gain a fresh perspective, even on a song, and singer, like this that I've listened to a million times. And the obvious joy she gets from sharing with all of us is always so infectious. Like a breath of fresh air. Keep up the amazing work, Bethany. Also, as others have mentioned, I'd love to hear you do a piece on "Ride On". A very different, but incredible, vocal from Bon.
Bon Scott was obviously amazing. But don't forget that Bon himself was totally fangirling over Brian Johnson as a singer when he was in Geordie which was the entire reason they had him audition for the spot when Bon passed away
I just love the beauty, honesty and straightforwardness in your reactions 😍 It also helps that the Bon Scott era AC/DC was my favourite band of all time 😊 Please do keep on doing what you do. The word is a better place for it 😊
I saw AC/DC live with both Bon & Brian. The first experience was SO powerful you just had to experience it to believe it. Awesome! Love your expressions! BTW I'm in Clemmons NC.
I saw AC/DC on the 7th of this month at Wembley stadium in London it's the 3rd time I've seen them since 1986 and they're still the best band ever to see live 🤘🤘
Just seeing them in such an outdated stage with next to no sound management and sounding rough and they still hit it out of the park, performance wise. Just great energy and showmanship. Also notice Angus was a very early adopter of going wireless. Imagine any modern act setting up in what looks like a High School auditorium like that and still performing and sounding this great. Many would fail.
Loved Bon!! (R.I.P.) i absolutely love your reaction to this! Your smile is infectious! Love your excitement and explanations! Oh and love when you do 70’s and 80’s rock especially! Have a blessed day
1 second ago They’re one of the most entertaining bands sonically and visually of all time, but just watching your beautiful face enjoying this is equally entertaining and mesmerizing! Keep up the great work!
Awesome review, young lady!! So sad that Bon didn't live to see the worldwide fame that was coming their way with the release of their final album with him at the forefront.
In 1975 I was in year 11 (5 Form) at school. We had an end of year breakup do. The girl that organised it booked a band from Sydney, that was in town (Melbourne) at the time. They had come to Melbourne to perform for the first time on "Count Down" a TV music show. They were an hour late, a bit drunk, on a tiny stage. They blew or minds... My mated said to me. "They're bloody good. they might go somewhere" They were of course AC/DC.
I first saw them in 1978 with Cheap Trick.... I knew THEN they were a force like we'd never seen. Their riffs and hard driving beat fit perfectly into my soul. I must have seen them 6 times between that first show until Bon died in Feb. 1980. What a crushing blow. BUT... they were Back in Black with Brian Johnson and their reign had just begun (RIP Bon). That album sold 16 million units in the U.S. alone... impressive, never missed a beat. I have seen them at least another half a dozen times since... One unforgettable concert. i really enjoy watching your reactions, especially with heavyweights like this (and Rush, Pink Floyd). Seeing younger people stepping in and realizing the talent from ages past in Rock and Roll renews my faith that I was right all along... These folks are Legends and their music will travel throughout remaining time for mankind. Thanks Bethany.
I was so fortunate to see the Bon Scott version of AC/DC live on October 16 1979 at Towson State in Baltimore. This was about 5 months before his death. I saw them a couple times after but it was never the same. This song is from Let There Be Rock. My favorite album of theirs. Just balls to the walls start to finish....
Bonjour de la France madame 😊. C'est tellement agréable de regarder vos réactions par rapport à un groupe ou un ou une artiste avec votre bonne humeur et joli sourire.
I've always noticed what you're noticing in his live singing. He's actually using the microphone pressed close as sort of like his upper lip in enunciating certain words. I think it is clever and unique to his style. ✌️
When you talk about the energy they all had and how it all meshes together for the performance. Having personal experience on this, this is the party energy we all had the in 70's and 80's. That time had an emotional quality for many of us kids growing up then that was almost nihilistic. I remember a friend of mine once said "we live under a nuclear threat we ain't in control of so might as well go out with sex, drugs, and rock'n roll. Then he would quote the song line "here for a good time not a long time". Kind of an unofficial motto of a lot of people back then was "live fast, die young, and leave a good looking corpse cause no one expected to live to get old honestly. So when you partied there was no point in holding back as it was possible you wouldn't have a tomorrow.
I saw them on the Highway to Hell tour, and it is still a benchmark for the highest level of crowd excitement and participation that I've ever seen. I was up in the mezzanine with a good view and from the first note to the last, not a single person in the auditorium sat down. Bon Scott walking through the crowd with Angus on his shoulders? Epic!
Unfortunately I missed Bon Scott, but fortunately I was at the concert in Zürich (Zurich in Switzerland) in 1986. The opening-song was Whole Lotta Rosie (the singer was Brian Johnson). This concert was a higlight with the incredible 😇number of about 3000 visitors... Good channel! 🖖
As a german I love AC/DC since 1985....they are the best....I saw them live 5 times...the last time in Germany at Hockenheim Ring with more than 100.000 people.....
I dont know where to start. First as always u do awesome reactions, i love them. Second i started to listen to ACDC when i was 15 and just started playing the drums. So to look more Rock n roll i had an old jeans jacket i cut the arms off, just like Bon has in this video. Thing is walking around looking like this in those days would put u in danger coz of those people who didnt like metal and looking like it. I had just realized at age 15 that i was getting old enough and had enough muscles so i didnt get beaten by my mum any more. Problem was i eneded up getting attacked by men who didnt like this new metal crap. Anyway, i love watching these old ACDC shows, or any shows for that matters. What amaze me is that Bon Scott freely steps back so Angus can more or less be the Front figure of the band. Ty for the awesome reaction and watching those nice curls again.
angus in his prime, not even looking and he's just banging his head, running all over, how did he keep on note and know where his finger placement was?......really amazing
Well that's just taken me back what? 35+ years? There was a club in Manchester called Jilly's, played rock, metal a bit of punk. Girlfriend at the time was a well built lass. When this came on we were both up and head banging, sweat pouring off the both of us when it finished. Damn but they were good times :-)
The next time you do some Bon Scott AC/DC I highly recommend Go Down, Walk all Over you, If you want blood, Night Prowler cool channel thanks for doing Bon👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎
You must react to Shoot to Thrill with Brian Johnson's vocals at River Plate! Unforgettable video and performance! The vibrations from the crowd, jumping in unison, measured on the Richter Scale.
Bon made it seem effortless singing those songs, that big voice coming out of nowhere, Brian Johnson that's another story... in my view he always seems on the verge of a heart attack when singing them, night and day difference. Bon in my view is the best straight ahead rock and roll vocalist there is and was in this genre.
This is So Fun had anyone told me that my most favorite AC/DC Song Whole Lotta Rosie in the the 9th grade in HS in 1978 and now 2024 I would be getting to see a Professional Vocal Coach doing a reaction video to this Song 46 years later I would not believe but then also You have done several reaction videos to my Most Favorite Bands like Triumph and Journey it makes me think I kinda knew what I really liked was Really Good! I Love Music Especially and going and continuing to go see theses Bands Live Journey next followed by Sammy Hagar Keep Rock’n!
Haven't watched the full video yet but Bon was brilliant, he had the voice, he had the walk, he had the strut and he captivated the audience along with Angus of course a fan since 1983...
Love it how u start to sway back and forth and get a look like ur ready to be a bad girl when a great song comes on lmao!! Like dancing on top of a whiskey bar
I enjoy your reaction to good Aussie rock or in AC/DC's case GREAT Aussie rock. By the time they reached England when this song was televised, they'd been playing in the pubs and clubs of Australia for years and, as you can hear, they were tight as a fishes proverbial. I was lucky enough to see AC/DC with Bon Scott twice. I'd be interested in your reaction to some other Aussie rockers like Rose Tattoo and Midnight Oil. Cheers from Bruce down under.

It is unbelivable... the only band that sounds life as good as in the studio, even better. Esp the early records. They mostly get from a gig into the studio and brought the energy into the records.
Growing up in Australia in the 70’s this IS AC/DC. The greatest era. Love your reactions Beth.
70's? I was born in 76 and I fucking love Bon era AC/DC (But Brian is also awesome)

Bon Scott - he stands atop the mountain of rock and roll singers.
I agree 💯
Rock n roll in human form, thats AC/DC.
Born in the UK, grown & matured in OZ, enjoyed by Planet Earth. Thank you Australia, from all of us!
Bon Scott! Who else could have written and delivered such a well crafted and poetic love song?
NO ONE!! That's who!! He is legend! R.I.P.

Bon really lifted ACDC ,I saw them play a few times before Bon joined, he really made them great.
This really is classic AC/DC. 😅😂😅😂😊
It's da best best best, ever! 😉
WHole album Powerage would be nice :P
This guy is what a rock singer is from top to the bottom and everything in between
The GREAT Bon Scott!
I'm 66 and have always loved AC/DC. I have to admit that I still like the Bon version the best. He was an amazing front man.
I am 62 I first heard Bon Scott at 17 I knew right away what I was hearing. So glad to see after all these years later his greatness hasn't been lost.
Gee-sus. I saw this a million times, and still get goosebumps. What a band. Pure focus. Pure energy.
ACDC is a genre of its own, they're pure uncut rock and roll! oh yeah!
I really enjoy your no frills approach, you ask for nothing, just focus on the music. You are rare and appreciated.
What makes Bon Scott's voice so iconic is the snark and sass in his tone. I see it as a precursor of the whiny, pouty, punk-pop sound of Green Day and their multitude of imitators; can I get a witness? Great analysis, Bethany!
I see that! It's kinda cheeky and mischievous rather than angsty
Bon Scott just dripped sarcasm, innuendo and laughter you can tell that when he was singing\fronting the band that was were he knew he belonged. RIP Bon
Love both AC/DC and Green Day myself, enjoy music that's all
Big inspiration for G’nR as well.
First time I saw them was Sept. 1980. Bon passed earlier that year, Back in Black had just come out. And Angus, throughout the entire concert, had more energy than all of us put together. He made the Energizer Bunny look like a petrified tortoise.

Malcolm is a huge part of AC/DC`s legacy !
Massive part, his rhythm along with Angus on lead is the main piece of the puzzle.
Greetings from Scotland. The live version from the Glasgow Apollo with Bon Scott is the version you need.
Yep,best concert ever🇦🇺🇦🇺
I still can’t get enough of his voice ❤it’s addictive ❤
The GOAT of all front men in rock bands so far, dearly missed R.I.P Bon.

RIP Bon Scott, 19th February 1980 🕊️ and RIP to Malcolm Young, Rhythm Guitarist on 18th November 2017. 🕊
Malcom would have been as good as lead guitarist as Angus, but as he once said "i could not drink so much or have so many chicks ".... so he gave that role to Angus.... but Malcoms rhythms are perfect.
When I think of AC/DC, THIS is the song! Your enthusiasm and appreciation are awesome!
you'll never know what a true rock'n'roll show is until you se ac/dc live
You want to hear Bon sing «Ride On»
_CHOON!_
^^this
Almost certainly inspired by ZZ Top - _Jesus Left Chicago._
Was about to say that. So good.
Absolutly, my favourite AC/DC-song. The best in a list of hundreds of great songs.
In Oz the first time I saw them on Countdown I knew they were going to be mega stars. I think most Aussies love this group especially during Bon Scott's days. He was the quintessential larrikin. Great reaction.
Remember the cover of Baby Please Don't Go with Bon in a school girl outfit and pig tails having a smoke? lol . The glory days of Aus music on TV.
For me, AC/DC isnt AC/DC without Bon Scott, He is the MAN!
Agree 100%! He was the best!!!!
He is but it's undeniable they wouldn't have the success they eventually had without Brian. I can't choose though, love em both!
@@vvoof2601 Brian did a good job but to me Bon was always the "real" AC/DC.
Bon’s Untouchable. Only other guy on his level is Dan McCafferty of Nazareth. True pros
They suck without Bon Suck
We Aussies don't move our lips and jaw as much as Brits and Americans when we speak. Guess Bon extended that to his singing. RIP Bon ... though legendary rockers never really die ❤
I thought Bon was Scottish.

Bon is amazing. One of my favorite singers. 70's AC/DC is gold.
Bon's singing, particularly in this song, is like a "rebel yell", almost a controlled scream. 😳😎
Thank you Bethany, glad you're moved by Bon.They don't make "those" anymore!
Love ACDC show with Bon live in Paris late 70's. Watch that one. The tour is called : Let There Be Rock

There is no better display of Bon Scott's emotional range of voice than that which is found in "Gone Shooting."
Check the version from Nashville 1978 on TH-cam. Fantastic. Malcolm drives the whole song with his rhythm playing. So good.
This song and performance is classic .. so damn good!!! 🔥🤘🏻⚡🔥🤘🏻⚡ Love me some Bon!
It's a long way to the top, and Whole lot Rosie are a couple of my most favorite Bon Scott songs.

One unforgettable concert. i really enjoy watching your reactions, especially with heavyweights like this (and Rush, Pink Floyd). Seeing younger people stepping in and realizing the talent from ages past in Rock and Roll renews my faith that I was right all along... These folks are Legends and their music will travel throughout remaining time for mankind. Thanks Bethany.
I love the little "thank you" he says at the end after rocking the F out! 🤣
Loved your perspective on Bon,well done🇦🇺
I was so fortunate to see the Bon Scott version of AC/DC live on October 16 1979 at Towson State in Baltimore. This was about 5 months before his death. I saw them a couple times after but it was never the same. This song is from Let There Be Rock. My favorite album of theirs. Just balls to the walls start to finish....
Bonjour de la France madame 😊. C'est tellement agréable de regarder vos réactions par rapport à un groupe ou un ou une artiste avec votre bonne humeur et joli sourire.
I've always noticed what you're noticing in his live singing. He's actually using the microphone pressed close as sort of like his upper lip in enunciating certain words. I think it is clever and unique to his style. ✌️
When you talk about the energy they all had and how it all meshes together for the performance. Having personal experience on this, this is the party energy we all had the in 70's and 80's. That time had an emotional quality for many of us kids growing up then that was almost nihilistic. I remember a friend of mine once said "we live under a nuclear threat we ain't in control of so might as well go out with sex, drugs, and rock'n roll. Then he would quote the song line "here for a good time not a long time". Kind of an unofficial motto of a lot of people back then was "live fast, die young, and leave a good looking corpse cause no one expected to live to get old honestly. So when you partied there was no point in holding back as it was possible you wouldn't have a tomorrow.
I saw them on the Highway to Hell tour, and it is still a benchmark for the highest level of crowd excitement and participation that I've ever seen. I was up in the mezzanine with a good view and from the first note to the last, not a single person in the auditorium sat down. Bon Scott walking through the crowd with Angus on his shoulders? Epic!
Unfortunately I missed Bon Scott, but fortunately I was at the concert in Zürich (Zurich in Switzerland) in 1986. The opening-song was Whole Lotta Rosie (the singer was Brian Johnson). This concert was a higlight with the incredible 😇number of about 3000 visitors... Good channel! 🖖
10:13 AC/DC is one of the few bands where the singer ISN'T the frontman
As a german I love AC/DC since 1985....they are the best....I saw them live 5 times...the last time in Germany at Hockenheim Ring with more than 100.000 people.....
I dont know where to start. First as always u do awesome reactions, i love them. Second i started to listen to ACDC when i was 15 and just started playing the drums. So to look more Rock n roll i had an old jeans jacket i cut the arms off, just like Bon has in this video. Thing is walking around looking like this in those days would put u in danger coz of those people who didnt like metal and looking like it. I had just realized at age 15 that i was getting old enough and had enough muscles so i didnt get beaten by my mum any more. Problem was i eneded up getting attacked by men who didnt like this new metal crap. Anyway, i love watching these old ACDC shows, or any shows for that matters. What amaze me is that Bon Scott freely steps back so Angus can more or less be the Front figure of the band. Ty for the awesome reaction and watching those nice curls again.
Grazie per questa bellissima critica dedicata al mitico Bon Scott. Un personaggio affascinante che ci ha lasciato troppo presto.
Need to check out, "AC/DC - Ride On" it's a slowed AC/DC song, shows his vocals in a different way.
angus in his prime, not even looking and he's just banging his head, running all over, how did he keep on note and know where his finger placement was?......really amazing
Check out another version of this song live, where he switches guitars during the solo. insanity
Bon Scott was AC - DC when he died, they did not make me lose myself in the music. I still love them, but that time was special.
Well that's just taken me back what? 35+ years? There was a club in Manchester called Jilly's, played rock, metal a bit of punk. Girlfriend at the time was a well built lass. When this came on we were both up and head banging, sweat pouring off the both of us when it finished. Damn but they were good times :-)
The next time you do some Bon Scott AC/DC I highly recommend Go Down, Walk all Over you, If you want blood, Night Prowler cool channel thanks for doing Bon👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎
You must react to Shoot to Thrill with Brian Johnson's vocals at River Plate! Unforgettable video and performance! The vibrations from the crowd, jumping in unison, measured on the Richter Scale.
Great review!
Saw these guys twice one with Bon and the other with Brian...both shows were stellar!
We love AC/DC because of the songs he wrote and sang. The man was a genius. His death was and always will be depressing
Bon made it seem effortless singing those songs, that big voice coming out of nowhere, Brian Johnson that's another story... in my view he always seems on the verge of a heart attack when singing them, night and day difference. Bon in my view is the best straight ahead rock and roll vocalist there is and was in this genre.
This is So Fun had anyone told me that my most favorite AC/DC Song Whole Lotta Rosie in the the 9th grade in HS in 1978 and now 2024 I would be getting to see a Professional Vocal Coach doing a reaction video to this Song 46 years later I would not believe but then also You have done several reaction videos to my Most Favorite Bands like Triumph and Journey it makes me think I kinda knew what I really liked was Really Good! I Love Music Especially and going and continuing to go see theses Bands Live Journey next followed by Sammy Hagar Keep Rock’n!
Haven't watched the full video yet but Bon was brilliant, he had the voice, he had the walk, he had the strut and he captivated the audience along with Angus of course
a fan since 1983...
Was lucky to see AC/DC with Bon… the show just kicked so much @$$… from start to finish.
Love it how u start to sway back and forth and get a look like ur ready to be a bad girl when a great song comes on lmao!! Like dancing on top of a whiskey bar
AC/DC. THE quintessential Rock and Roll band.
I enjoy your reaction to good Aussie rock or in AC/DC's case GREAT Aussie rock. By the time they reached England when this song was televised, they'd been playing in the pubs and clubs of Australia for years and, as you can hear, they were tight as a fishes proverbial. I was lucky enough to see AC/DC with Bon Scott twice. I'd be interested in your reaction to some other Aussie rockers like Rose Tattoo and Midnight Oil. Cheers from Bruce down under.
