I remember someone commenting on the original AC/VC video something along the lines of: "It's amazing how this really highlights how much Brian Johnson sounds like a dying weasel"
Most of the time, mashups work because of two songs blending well. This however works solely due to the fact that these songs do not work together at all
@@TheZigzagman including the amazing "Spectrum" Album by Billy Cobham, which contains the famous Stratus-Bassline, which has been sampled on Massive Attack's Safe from harm
This mashup made me realize two things. 1. The instrumentation and production on A Thousand Miles is amazing. 2. Brian Johnson sounds like someone put a brick in a clothes dryer.
Neil's songs start off with narrowly avoiding a car crash with a "that isn't as bad as it could have been". Then instantly being Blindsided by an eighteen-wheeler.
Funny thing is, when I hear that opening piano, BJ's screaming is genuinely what I'm anticipating When I hear VC sing now, something about it just sounds wrong Honestly, even the original Back In Black feels like it's missing something now Somehow, this has become the true song for me The others just don't feel special apart from each other anymore They need to be together for the magic to happen Is this mental illness? Is there something wrong with me?
sometimes i just listen to this in my room staring at the ceiling and start spacing out. i start crying and thinking about everything the song is saying all at once. it truly is a one of a kind experience.
You ever see that episode of "South Park" where Cartman doesn't think he'll find anything funny again because of the people with asses where their heads should be? That's me now. I'm Cartman.
Imagine being a popular internet musician and finding out that ur childhood hero played your stupid mashup on the radio because his son was a fan of you and showed it to him

I can really imagine an alternative video where Brian Johnson is wearing a Vanessa Carlton wig where he's just dances around his house listening to the instrumental
my sister just got trolled big time after expecting to hear "making my way downtown" when I played this in the car with her she is going to fucking kill me :)
I almost fucking died when hearing this song for the first time. I legit had to pause the vid for a sloid 4 minutes to calm down. God, I love Neil's stuff. It just sucks that the playlist version was blocked in my country.
i mean? the songs express a pretty similar message of taking the opportunity of life and seizing it for everything you have... but certainly go about it in different ways lol

Wow at the rime of writing this these ratios are just super weird. This video has 12,600 views, but only 300 likes, 2 dislikes, and 8 comments, including mine.
Honestly that doesn't seem too weird to me. One of my videos that had similar stats had almost no comments until someone decided to comment on the lack of comments, at which point every single following comment was about the number of comments. Of which there are now almost a hundred because of the endless chain of people commenting "wow only x comments"
I remember someone commenting on the original AC/VC video something along the lines of: "It's amazing how this really highlights how much Brian Johnson sounds like a dying weasel"
he really does
Sounds like he's trying to scare away birds from his field
Wasn't it a dying goblin?
@@serialborxes Maybe, I honestly forgot the exact animal/creature.
@@KaaneDragonShinobilol yeah it doesn't really matter. I just remembered the heck outta that comment too
I played this for my mom. She was silent the entire time. At the very end, she sat for a while, and then she laughed and said, “That was awful.”
That's awesome, lol
I showed Neil's stuff to my dad a while ago and I've never seen that guy closer to a stroke
Holy shit it's Josuke the dog
@@user-em7ig3lk7l 👀
Crazy
When you and your partner didn't coordinate on your parts of the project at all but it's time to present
And yet you still get it right somehow
Bruh this his like real hard, that's what doing a project is like in quarantine
Still got an A+ tho
XD
ACVC feels like eating an apple after brushing your teeth.
EXACTLY, word by word
or wearing really dry fresh-outta-the-laundry clothes while you're still wet yourself
Holy shit u know that feeling too?
ACVC feels like your pilot saying you're going through minor turbulence, then the plane proceeds to shake violently.
Most of the time, mashups work because of two songs blending well. This however works solely due to the fact that these songs do not work together at all
And that's also the reason why they work together so perfectly.
Yet .... somehow they DO work together
It fits so well rythmic.
It's like the square going in the rectangle hole it's not made for, and yet it still fits
the drum work on 1000 Miles is surprisingly tight
by Abe Laboriel Jr, Paul McCartney’s drummer!
And Leland Sklar on bass.
Look him up, he's played for almost literally everybody and looks like a wizard.
@@TheZigzagman I wasn't expecting him to actually look like a wizard but you're totally right.
@@TheZigzagman the reason he looks like a wizard is cause he IS a wizard. how else would he get into so many bands then?
@@TheZigzagman including the amazing "Spectrum" Album by Billy Cobham, which contains the famous Stratus-Bassline, which has been sampled on Massive Attack's Safe from harm
i had to google back in black because when i tried to remember what it sounded like for a music project this is all i could think of
That's hilarious
This mashup made me realize two things.
1. The instrumentation and production on A Thousand Miles is amazing.
2. Brian Johnson sounds like someone put a brick in a clothes dryer.
The first time I heard this I died laughing the entire song and I couldn’t stop
Same, was walking in public and had to go sit down 😂
Same, my wife has a video of it. I was so sweaty by the end
That beat drop hit me like a brick fucking wall.
Neil's songs start off with narrowly avoiding a car crash with a "that isn't as bad as it could have been".
Then instantly being Blindsided by an eighteen-wheeler.
Almost died laughing while driving when auto play started this. Was not at all prepared for Back in Black to begin playing over this
Congratulations on maintaining control of the wheel. I'd be dead in a ditch.
any other version should be skipped
Funny thing is, when I hear that opening piano, BJ's screaming is genuinely what I'm anticipating
When I hear VC sing now, something about it just sounds wrong
Honestly, even the original Back In Black feels like it's missing something now

@@lulairenoroub3869No, I feel that too with The End.

I don't think I ever would have noticed without this comment, so thank you SO MUCH
I saw that and breifly thought there was some ai shenanigans going on
This is the song that convinced me that this man is a musical genius.
Good to see this came back. I was really pissed off when all versions of this song got purged.
Back in black.
I hit the sack.
@@menicman7044 what kind of sack? 😳
@@menicman7044 It's been to long I'm glad to be back.
Botch
I still dream that one day Vanessa Carlton and Brian Johnson will appear on the same talkshow and agree to do this live.
everyone i showed this too either laughed uncontrollably or instantly regretted knowing me. thanks Neil!
This song is like a punch to the gut, since I was left wheezing and wondering how you could do this to me
Friend: What kind of music do you like?
Me: ... It's complicated...
comedic mashups. it's that simple to say. not complicated
@@P0Pdart yeah, but... then they ask WHY you like them and-
@@Cohaki Cause, well, their funny as fuck. That's how you respond
My parents don't want me anymore lol
My parents said that when they caught me listening to Gwar
I feel you... I see you... I validate you, TRAP THE ROBOT. I'm where you are.
But tomorrow... I'm back. In black.
Namaste, bitches.
*EPIC*
😂😂😂 I relate
Sorry to hear
Absolutely life changing
the vocals are amazing!! They make me want to stick spiked thorns into my eardrums!!!
i cant stop hallucinating a thousand miles into sounding like giant steps, so this sounds extra chaotic
sometimes i just listen to this in my room staring at the ceiling and start spacing out. i start crying and thinking about everything the song is saying all at once. it truly is a one of a kind experience.
HI All! Here is another repost although it is remade from the ground up with better syncing and framerate.
Originally Released March 25th 2017
As an Australian, thank you for this service
I love this song so much.
Am I the only one who actually and unironically likes this mashup? Everyone else?

You took one of my favorite mashups, and you provided me with a music video. And for that I applaud you.
Perfection.

This is everything.
right in the feels
Imagine being a popular internet musician and finding out that ur childhood hero played your stupid mashup on the radio because his son was a fan of you and showed it to him
every time I listen to this, I can't unsee a very soulful goblin singing
This mashup gives me energy
... Sounds like the Japanese dub of Meowth from Pokémon freaking the fuck out to "a thousand miles." 😂
the turning point of the album
My neighbors came and knocked on my door to tell me to turn the music down.
I had my headphones in...
bruh, can you explain what happened? Did you just not put your headphones in or did something else happen.
@@zen4ever3 its a joke, they're saying that playing the song at any volume is far too loud lol
I don't know if I should be angered by the fact someone did this to ACDC.......or impressed that it kinda works... O_O :P
Welcome to Neil's World.
His name is Neil Cicierega and he’s an absolute legend

Back in black
I hit the sack
I've been too long I'm glad to be back. Yes, I'm
Let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about
I keep lookin' at the sky
'Cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse cause I'll never die
I got nine lives
Cat's eyes
Abusin' every one of them and running wild
'Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black, hey
Back in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet
I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a band, with a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
'Cause I'm back on the track
And I'm beatin' the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So look at me now
I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck
Just get out of my way
'Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black

Well I'm ba-hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Yes I am
Hey yeah, yeah oh yeah
Back in now

Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)

I can really imagine an alternative video where Brian Johnson is wearing a Vanessa Carlton wig where he's just dances around his house listening to the instrumental
This feels like all those drawings from when New Horizons and Doom Eternal released on the same day of Isabelle and Doomguy hanging out
my sister just got trolled big time after expecting to hear "making my way downtown" when I played this in the car with her
she is going to fucking kill me :)
Low key jams
1:17 Sam Riegel: "Makin' my play-"
Jesus, Neil is brilliant.
This song came out as genderfluid and I'm very supportive of them
I requested a thousand miles at a bar karoke just 3 minutea ago, I sang these lyrics over it instead!
Okay
Can’t tell if Neil messed with the vocals or if he really does sound like that without distorted guitar behind him
I almost fucking died when hearing this song for the first time. I legit had to pause the vid for a sloid 4 minutes to calm down.
God, I love Neil's stuff. It just sucks that the playlist version was blocked in my country.
Omg me too
I want to see this live!
This is extremely exhausting to listen too XD!!
Never forget that the Johns from They Might Be Giants played this on the radio and talked about Neil.
my last two braincells fighting for control be like…
There are two major phases of life Ive really had and the fine line between them is hearing this song for the first time
I like the funny goblin man.
When your man has returned from a thousand-mile training arc, and it's a little worrying.
i mean? the songs express a pretty similar message of taking the opportunity of life and seizing it for everything you have... but certainly go about it in different ways lol
I knew what this song was about before putting it on, but nothing could prepare me for any of it.
From someone with alittle ADHD. I really love this, its so bad its amazing not just good but amazing!
In case you’ve ever wanted to listen to a quirky cooking video on the proper technique for putting a cat through a blender
Funny thing is, when I hear that opening piano, BJ's screaming is genuinely what I'm anticipating
When I hear VC sing now, something about it just sounds wrong
Honestly, even the original Back In Black feels like it's missing something now
Somehow, this has become the true song for me
The others just don't feel special apart from each other anymore
They need to be together for the magic to happen
Is this mental illness? Is there something wrong with me?
This song bops. Screw yall haters you got no open mind for music
I love twenty one pilots
