Maximum Overdrive? Anyone else remember? Emilio Estevez, semi trucks driving themselves. The entire movie was an AC/DC soundtrack with this song featured.
This song was part of the soundtrack for Maxumum Overdrive, based on a Stephen King book where machines come to life (who made who). Stephen King asked AC/DC to do the soundtrack
The song was in fact written as part of the soundtrack to Stephen King's 1986 movie Maximum Overdrive where Big Trucks come to life and take over humanity.
@@hurricane7479 , the "who made who" tour was my 5th acdc concert out of 12. I enjoyed every concert immensely. It's a shame I'd love to see one more. 🤘🤘
'Who made who' was recorded in 1986 - it was for the soundtrack for the Stephen King movie 'Maximum Overdrive' - the lyrics were taken from the movie plot: If technology suddenly turned against humans and machines came to life & start killing everyone... This music video was one of their first to make it on MTV because even after 'Back in Black' sold 12 million copies in 1980, AC/DC was struggling to sell records in 1985 (Their album 'Fly on the wall' in '85 only sold a half million copies) So, AC/DC released 'Who made who' in '86 w/ a batch of older songs as the 'Maximum Overdrive' soundtrack. The movie flopped... but the music video was a hit on MTV and the 'Who made who' release sold platinum... They decided to film a new music video for the 1980 song 'You shook me all night long'... and it became another hit on MTV (Angus & Malcolm Young both dressed as schoolboys... Brian Johnson on a date w/ a Playboy model 🤣) In 1988, AC/DC released the full new album 'Blow up your video'... and it sold platinum. It set the stage for the success of the 'Thunderstruck' single in 1990 from the album "The Razor's Edge"... which has sold 6x platinum to date. Top 10 AC/DC songs? Sheesh! OK... Top 10 w/ Bon Scott on vocals - 1) Highway to hell... 2) Let there be rock... 3) It's a long way to the top (If you wanna rock n' roll)... 4) T.N.T. ... 5) Girl's got rhythm ... 6) Whole lotta Rosie... 7) Problem child... 8) Dirty deeds done dirt cheap ... 9) Touch too much ... 10) Riff raff Top 10 AC/DC songs w/ Brian Johnson on vocals - 1) Back in black... 2) Thunderstruck... 3) You shook me all night long ... 4) Hells Bells ... 5) For those about to rock - we salute you... 6) Rock n' roll train ... 7) Heatseeker ... 8) Shake your foundations ... 9) Moneytalks ... 10) Who made who. FYI - Most AC/DC songs are about sex, booze, sleaze and rock n' roll... they are a party band for sure... But they often do come up w/ rare gems lyrically that stray from their formula... "Burnin' alive" was about the siege in Waco, Texas... "Hail Caesar" was a reference to Julius Caesar... 'The Furor' I believe was a stance against religious extremism... all from their 1995 album 'Ballbreaker'
The thing about "Big Balls" is they talking about "parties" but make it a double-ender that can be taken in a perverted way. This song was the title track for the album, which was the soundtrack for "Maximum Overdrive' that's about machines coming to life. You nailed this reaction....but we need "Big Balls!" 40!
Star Trek was also the 60s and inspired (foretold?) so much of what people take for granted today. When was the original Dr. Who? I used to love catching episodes late at night once in awhile when I was a kid. Lots of other examples as well. Technology and ideas don't just randomly appear out of nowhere. One thing leads to another eh? Kinda the point of this song...lol.😉
Maximum Overdrive is a 1986 American horror film written and directed by Stephen King. The film has a mid-1980s hard rock soundtrack composed entirely by the group AC/DC (King's favorite band),
Great reaction! I was one of 10 Angus Young lookalikes that because of this song met AC/DC and Stephen King in 1985 and was also on the speakers (dressed as Angus) for the beginning of this song in Toronto! This was the opening song. Cheers!
I saw them live in Toronto in front of 500,000 crazy Canadians and the ground literally shook all night long 😂 For those about to rock is a must my friend. Great reaction and Peace out ✌️ ☮️ 🙏
Ac/dc needs to play the Super Bowl before they all die off! That would be awesome! For those about to rock! Back in black! And a couple others would be a show!
The tour from this album was the only AC/DC show from 82 to 88 that we missed! Btw, we were driving in Alaska and stayed at a motel somewhere at a crossroads. There was a small restaurant there as well. We were walking to over to the restaurant and this song came on from the rooms above the bath house. So surreal at the time cuz the only thing you could get on the radio was country! This was late eighties!
This was the best band to watch live. I started listening to them in 1979. I was nine years of age and we listened to the Back in Black album over and over again. This was Brian Johnson's first album with the band after the passing of Bon.
my friend Cosmo is chief lighting designer for ACDC. He also is head lighting engineer for Aerosmith, Slash and Judas Priest. And back in the early 80's when I was young and did martial arts I guarded rockstars and ACDC was one of the bands we guarded several times.
This was written for the soundtrack of a horrible movie based on a Stephen King novel (or maybe short story), called Maximum Overdrive. I just bought the movie to revisit why I hated it when it came out, and couldn't get past 25 minutes. But the whole soundtrack was AC/DC. And this is one one that was written specifically for the movie, which storyline is about the machines coming alive and seeking revenge on those that made them (including lawn mowers, hair dryers, and automobiles. Yes, it is stupid, but was also intended to be a dark comedy/action movie). That's where the "who made who" theme comes in. Edit: the Steven King short story is called "Trucks."
It was a short story called "Trucks" by King released in 1973. King directed Maximum Overdrive. Knowing on this movie is terrible, King stated I was coke out of my mind during filming. There was another movie made in 1997 called Trucks, TV movie. This movie like Maximum Overdrive is based on the short story.
The story goes that Steven King came to them to do the soundtrack. The band responded that they wouldn’t tamper it down and King said he wouldn’t expect it any other way.
Stephen King is a fan of the band so they worked out some songs for this movie. Another band King likes is Blue Oyster Cult. He got permission to use “Don’t Fear the Reaper “ for his movie “ The Stand” and he did the opening narration for their 1987 “Astronomy “ video.
Takes me back to my Junior year in high school, 1988. This was my song. I wore that cassette out cruising in Daddy’s old ton Dodge work truck in my little hometown in Southeastern Kentucky! Takes me back so strongly when I hear it!!
From what I can remember the Top ACDC songs are Back in Black ThunderStruck Who made Who Hells Bells Highway to Hell (the label are the ones who gave them devil horns on album cover w/o ACDC knowledge) For those about to Rock- Shook you all night long Thats all I can remember right now
First concert as a teen was AC/DC touring this Who Made Who album. As a 15 year old, I never paid attention to any lyrics. I’m 52 now and a Christian. I agree with you 100%! I KNOW who made me…I KNOW Jesus died on the cross and rose on the 3rd day. Praise God- all glory to Him🙌🏼
As others have noted, the song was written to be part of a movie soundtrack where machines apparently came to life and attacked people. But I agree with you that the lyrics go beyond that. Definitely some of the more thoughtful lyrics Brian wrote for AC/DC.
I love having sons, have a bunch of them, love to coach them in various sports. I have one rule, doesn't matter if you win, get blown out, whatever, if you're not smiling you're not playing the game right. No participation awards, nothing like that, you should be upset if you get rocked and lose, not the point. ACDC is always smiling, they're playing music right, that's their game and in my opinion why they're so wildly popular and appealing.
I was traveling in Alaska in 1988...in the middle of nowhere. I stopped for the night at a restaurant/bath house that had cabins to sleep in. That evening I was walking toward the bath house and heard the beginning of Who Made Who of all songs! Very surreal to be sure.😂😂 Saw AC/DC 4 times in the 80's but missed this tour cuz I was sick.😢
Saw them in 87 and it was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen in my 57 years! This song was way ahead of its time and not something that we expected from our favorite beer drinking Aussies. So deep for the time.
I had been a fan of ACDC during the 70s. Watching tv news getting ready ready for school, they were interviewing him for his newest book out about vampires, he said he liked ACDC, Ichise his newest book for my book report. Holy crap, you put on ACDC & start reading Stephen King
This song was included in the movie Maximum Overdrive that was based on a novel by Stephen King. AC/DC was his favorite band and all songs in the movie were songs by them.
Yes, that’s the Big Balls we’re asking for (not how this sounds!). The lyrics are genius though, and if you aren’t familiar with anything other than the chorus, I think it’s worth your while.
This whole album by the same name was the actual soundtrack to "Maximum Overdrive"! Song was about machines (A.I.) taking over. But the cause was alien induced brought on by the earth being in a comet!
BP probably put more thought into these lyrics, than any other AC/DC fan ever has. OOO AHH OOO! that's the hook and that's the song. Need that one song that made people go out and buy the album. There wasn't time to have deep thoughts lol. Oh! and a rocking guitar solo.
I'm going to throw one out there that hardly anybody requests, and as far as I know, there hasn't been any reactions to, which is "Ride On." With all of their massive hits, you are going to find a lot of underrated and underappreciated AC/DC songs, and to me this has to be the biggest one. Slow blues at the highest level. Check it out because you will not be disappointed. I can guarantee that 100 percent.
Hi 👋🏽 There’s an oldie but a goodie from my youth that I know you will definitely enjoy. The band is called Golden Earring, song is Radar Love. It has a very catchy sound & you will not regret it if you’ve never heard it previously.
AC\DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, TnT, Rock n Roll Ain't Noise Pollution , Ride On, Night Prowler. Lets Get It Up, My all time favorite AC\DC song, For Those About To Rock, We Salute You. With AC\DC it's more about Favorite albums. Their albums are pretty much great all the way through. At least the Bon Scott years.
Just came here to leave the same comment, that line always grabs me, it’s like when the class clown says something really profound out of nowhere and everyone does a double-take
When this came out, as kids we would literally scream "Who made poo!" all the time, anywhere and everywhere. Is it bad that all these decades later i still find that funny?
A song that will totally freak you out when you talk about being ahead of their time is Zager & Evans In the Year 2525., It was written in1964 and released in 1968
1986. And at that time there was a lot of talk about duplication of life and cloning. I think it was around that time they cloned Dolly the sheep. Also in those days robots were being made and talked about if a robot could simulate a human.
I use to listen to ac⚡dc all day And night as a teen like idk 14 😁 my Moms was so tired of it I had to use headphones with cassette tape.. Oh the Good Old Days 😊
Want to freak yourself out? This was in the early 90s. This is the sound track to a movie called Maximum Overdrive. It starts with a meteor going by and somehow it omits a frequency that brings the vehicles alive. The Semis take over the truck stop they are working at and force the people to keep them running. So yes not quite AI but close
That's the good thing about song writers. They can take something meant for one thing, in this case a movie. and it can be viewed various different ways. So many different tunes can have major significance to a time, place or era years later. I 've seen, love and own the movie. I got the same vibe from the song. Kinda takes you back to the Chicken or the egg. Which came first? Same philosophy.
Top Ten Who Songs - Not in My Opinion personally. 1, - Baba O "Riley 2, - Won't get Fooled Again 3, - My Generation 4, - The Real Me 5, - Love Reign O'er Me 6, - I Can See for Miles 7, - I Can't Explain 8, - Who are You 9, - Bargain 10, - Pin Ball Wizard
Another good AC/DC song to listen to is "FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK (WE SALUTE YOU)"! It's also on the movie soundtrack "Maximum Overdrive" people have mentioned. It's a good soundtrack BTW because it features AC/DC songs.
on AC/DC's official TH-cam channel they have this song (as you obviously know!), but someone put in the comments; "An army of Angus Youngs? No country deserves that kind of power!" and I like that you talk about what it is that you believe in God, questioning the Bible's validity. for myself, I have no questions about it anymore. my son, however, does question it, and we have had conversations regarding it. I told him that it's good that he's questioning it, because if you don't question it, you'll never really know until you do the research yourself and do a deep dive into it. And if that strengthens his own faith, then the Bible has done its job.
The oldest joke. “Angus and Ac/dc sit down for an interview, the man asks “ why have you made 18 albums that sound the exact same.” And angus says “we’ve made 19 albums.”
For more substantive AC/DC songs, you should check out, "What's Next to the Moon', "Down Payment Blues", and "Sin City", studio versions. No one reacts to those, but they are incredible and will not be what you expect. "Ride On" is another.
Seconded - especially "Down Payment Blues" - but their entire back catalogue contains album tracks that could so easily have been singles - so much good writing, so many good riffs.
Best Rock 'N' Roll band in the world. Right? Only the Stones will out live them, and they're my #2. I'm a Christian. Aussies know what's up. The Lord is coming take us home brother.
I’m not sure about individual songs as far as which songs made it the highest on the Billboard charts but as far as albums go, the second best selling album of all time is AC/DC Back In Black. 10 songs of pure fire.
Maximum Overdrive? Anyone else remember? Emilio Estevez, semi trucks driving themselves. The entire movie was an AC/DC soundtrack with this song featured.
The soundtrack was the best part of the movie because the movie was definitely not a blockbuster.
I still love to watch that movie. So bad and good at the same time
@worthlessfiat8516 I haven't seen it in decades, but I considered trying to find it & rewatch just to see if it was better than I remembered.
@@rebeccacurtis6680 I believe it's on Pluto tv and Amazon prime right now
Oh yes, I love that movie. It’s sucks… but ACDC soundtrack!! It’s based on a short story by Stephen King- “Trucks”. Even made a movie called “ Trucks”
This song was part of the soundtrack for Maxumum Overdrive, based on a Stephen King book where machines come to life (who made who). Stephen King asked AC/DC to do the soundtrack
Yeah I loved that sound tract
you mean maximum overdrive was a movie for this album
...And the soundtrack was the only worthwhile thing ABOUT the movie!
Just a slight adjustment, here:
This wasn't based on a King "book" (as in: a novel), but, rather, a short story [entitled: "Trucks"].
That's all.
The song was in fact written as part of the soundtrack to Stephen King's 1986 movie Maximum Overdrive where Big Trucks come to life and take over humanity.
I don't watch it that often, but the beginning of Maximum Overdrive always cracks me up. "This machine just called me an A**hole" 😂
The AC/DC movie "Maximum Overdrive " definitely a classic. Good song.
🤣🤣

I’d add sin city for bon and shoot to thrill for BJ. Those two have to be in top ten
Stephen King loves ACDC, so this was a collaboration for a soundtrack.
Yeh it was for the movie Maximum Overdrive directed by King.
Fsk
I have read probably every sk book. Loved horror... I was LOST.
That came out 86 but Angus has always been crazy as bleep and his younger years.
Don't hold that against AC/DC, you can't help who likes you.
AC/DC Highway to Hell
Dirty Deeds ,Back in Black, For Those about to Rock, Thunderstruck,Hells Bells
I love ANGUS YOUNG GREAT guitars ACDC Number One
Still one of my favourite 80's songs. I love love love the bass intro.
The thing about "Big Balls" is they talking about "parties" but make it a double-ender that can be taken in a perverted way. This song was the title track for the album, which was the soundtrack for "Maximum Overdrive' that's about machines coming to life. You nailed this reaction....but we need "Big Balls!" 40!
Big Balls is where it's at
Shoot, we had the Jetsons, we had all this in the 60’s.😊
Star Trek was also the 60s and inspired (foretold?) so much of what people take for granted today. When was the original Dr. Who? I used to love catching episodes late at night once in awhile when I was a kid. Lots of other examples as well. Technology and ideas don't just randomly appear out of nowhere. One thing leads to another eh? Kinda the point of this song...lol.😉
Big Balls is definitely worth a revisit, the word play is hilarious. You'll definitely enjoy it
I love them all but, This has always been my favorite ACDC song.
This came out in 86 and Angus is always been freaking crazy specially in the very early days.
You said it, “man tampers with everything”! So true! It’s good to question and not follow blindly. 😊
"Moneytalks" is another one
Money Talks is a BOP
I love when the guitar comes in with no words and it fills it as if it's the one singing.
And BS walks, love this song
This came out in 1986 in the movie Maximum Overdrive 🎬📽🎶🎶
Honey this machine just called an asshole
Maximum Overdrive is a 1986 American horror film written and directed by Stephen King. The film has a mid-1980s hard rock soundtrack composed entirely by the group AC/DC (King's favorite band),

And i was a prime minister in England 😂
I won second grade spelling bee at that one school I went to
⚡️AC/DC⚡️ Bringing that soundtrack heat from maximum overdrive.
🤘😎👍
I saw them live in Toronto in front of 500,000 crazy Canadians and the ground literally shook all night long 😂 For those about to rock is a must my friend. Great reaction and Peace out ✌️ ☮️ 🙏
I am from Canada and I approve this message. lol You rock , @RockinMamaT.
@@EastCoastFringe 🤣🤣
Ac/dc needs to play the Super Bowl before they all die off! That would be awesome! For those about to rock! Back in black! And a couple others would be a show!
Gosh they look so young in this video. Which in turn makes me feel old. Only upside is AC/DC is still older than me. Lol
God bless you
✌️✌️ & ❤❤
The Who Made Who tour was my first time seeing them in Shreveport, Louisiana at the Hirch coliseum in 1985. MEMORIES!! Love the movie too.
The tour from this album was the only AC/DC show from 82 to 88 that we missed! Btw, we were driving in Alaska and stayed at a motel somewhere at a crossroads. There was a small restaurant there as well. We were walking to over to the restaurant and this song came on from the rooms above the bath house. So surreal at the time cuz the only thing you could get on the radio was country! This was late eighties!
I’ve never even paid attention to these lyrics until now. Wow!
That's the way i wanna rock and roll is an AC/DC song I've always loved but i never hear anyone else talk about. The video is fun too
I love this song. The beginning of their comeback!
My second favorite AC/DC song to It's a Long Way to the top.
Loved the movie maximum overdrive 😂
CORE MEMORIES UNLOCKED ❤
AC//DC. BACK IN BACK
I love AC/DC! So glad I grew up when they came out and we banged them as loud as our speakers allowed! They are definitely Top 5 best Rock Groups.❤
God gave you the power to question. Honor that gift by using that power.
Oooh yeah, finally thank you, thank you, my favorite!
This was the best band to watch live. I started listening to them in 1979. I was nine years of age and we listened to the Back in Black album over and over again. This was Brian Johnson's first album with the band after the passing of Bon.
I always thought of it as a double entendre. Mad as in created, but also made as in got you to the top, a made man.
Almost 40 years ago
my friend Cosmo is chief lighting designer for ACDC. He also is head lighting engineer for Aerosmith, Slash and Judas Priest. And back in the early 80's when I was young and did martial arts I guarded rockstars and ACDC was one of the bands we guarded several times.
This is a great tune, but yeah, "Big Balls" - or "large formal gatherings" is my favorite!
This was written for the soundtrack of a horrible movie based on a Stephen King novel (or maybe short story), called Maximum Overdrive.

Wow...I did not know that. I may go back and watch as it may be more relivent today.

Takes me back to my Junior year in high school, 1988. This was my song. I wore that cassette out cruising in Daddy’s old ton Dodge work truck in my little hometown in Southeastern Kentucky! Takes me back so strongly when I hear it!!
Right on bro! What an awesome banger to react to. Very few have done this song, it got me so fired up.
Pure 🔥
From what I can remember the Top ACDC songs are
Back in Black
ThunderStruck
Who made Who
Hells Bells
Highway to Hell (the label are the ones who gave them devil horns on album cover w/o ACDC knowledge)
For those about to Rock-
Shook you all night long
Thats all I can remember right now
My favorite AC/DC song. I like how the drums and guitar propels you forward.
YES SIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR........ Prince is LIFE!!!!
Best movie ever!😁. CURTIS, Curtis... Don't you make me a widow on my wedding day!
First concert as a teen was AC/DC touring this Who Made Who album. As a 15 year old, I never paid attention to any lyrics. I’m 52 now and a Christian. I agree with you 100%! I KNOW who made me…I KNOW Jesus died on the cross and rose on the 3rd day. Praise God- all glory to Him🙌🏼
This is and always has been a jam!!!!!
As others have noted, the song was written to be part of a movie soundtrack where machines apparently came to life and attacked people. But I agree with you that the lyrics go beyond that. Definitely some of the more thoughtful lyrics Brian wrote for AC/DC.
I love having sons, have a bunch of them, love to coach them in various sports. I have one rule, doesn't matter if you win, get blown out, whatever, if you're not smiling you're not playing the game right. No participation awards, nothing like that, you should be upset if you get rocked and lose, not the point. ACDC is always smiling, they're playing music right, that's their game and in my opinion why they're so wildly popular and appealing.
I love this song, one of my favorites ❤ You shook me all night long is a Great one !!
I was traveling in Alaska in 1988...in the middle of nowhere. I stopped for the night at a restaurant/bath house that had cabins to sleep in. That evening I was walking toward the bath house and heard the beginning of Who Made Who of all songs! Very surreal to be sure.😂😂 Saw AC/DC 4 times in the 80's but missed this tour cuz I was sick.😢
AC/DC makes bangers! Decades of incredible rock music.
Saw them in 87 and it was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen in my 57 years! This song was way ahead of its time and not something that we expected from our favorite beer drinking Aussies. So deep for the time.
Soulstripper, Overdose, and Touch Too Much. My top 3 ACDC songs.
I had been a fan of ACDC during the 70s. Watching tv news getting ready ready for school, they were interviewing him for his newest book out about vampires, he said he liked ACDC, Ichise his newest book for my book report. Holy crap, you put on ACDC & start reading Stephen King
Salems Lot was the book, hooked my teacher to Stephen King too
This song was included in the movie Maximum Overdrive that was based on a novel by Stephen King. AC/DC was his favorite band and all songs in the movie were songs by them.
Listen to high voltage and jail break they where sung by Bon Scott and those where some early stuff

One of their greatest. Got to check out, Ride On... One of the early ones.. It's a great one.
Awww the Maximum Overdrive soundtrack!! The 80s rock was fabulous
No one should judge, i completely agree and im a Christian ❤
This album was released in 1984, It was a very popular album at that time
Is it me or is Malcolm Young one of the greatest rhythm guitarist of all time
I don't know how good you are on guitar but I'm willing to say, it's definitely Malcolm Young 😊
BP probably put more thought into these lyrics, than any other AC/DC fan ever has. OOO AHH OOO! that's the hook and that's the song. Need that one song that made people go out and buy the album. There wasn't time to have deep thoughts lol. Oh! and a rocking guitar solo.

Maximum Overdrive 💯💯💯👍👍👍😏😏😏
"Running out of chips, you got no line in a 8 bit town" is one of AC/DC most clever lyrics.
Just came here to leave the same comment, that line always grabs me, it’s like when the class clown says something really profound out of nowhere and everyone does a double-take
When this came out, as kids we would literally scream "Who made poo!" all the time, anywhere and everywhere.
Is it bad that all these decades later i still find that funny?
A song that will totally freak you out when you talk about being ahead of their time is Zager & Evans In the Year 2525., It was written in1964 and released in 1968
1986. And at that time there was a lot of talk about duplication of life and cloning. I think it was around that time they cloned Dolly the sheep. Also in those days robots were being made and talked about if a robot could simulate a human.
I use to listen to ac⚡dc all day And night as a teen like idk 14 😁 my Moms was so tired of it I had to use headphones with cassette tape.. Oh the Good Old Days 😊
Love to see you do "Ride on" by AC/DC . it's the best song ever!!!
Want to freak yourself out? This was in the early 90s. This is the sound track to a movie called Maximum Overdrive. It starts with a meteor going by and somehow it omits a frequency that brings the vehicles alive. The Semis take over the truck stop they are working at and force the people to keep them running. So yes not quite AI but close
Your spot-on Dude!
This was the 80s. It was the theme song for the movie, "Maximum Overdrive" which was inspired by the Stephen King short story, "Trucks."
Obviously one of my favs
That's the good thing about song writers. They can take something meant for one thing, in this case a movie. and it can be viewed various different ways. So many different tunes can have major significance to a time, place or era years later. I 've seen, love and own the movie. I got the same vibe from the song. Kinda takes you back to the Chicken or the egg. Which came first? Same philosophy.
My favorite acdc song. Practically a fugue. Hope to fully orchestrate it one day (if someone hasn't already).

Another good AC/DC song to listen to is "FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK (WE SALUTE YOU)"! It's also on the movie soundtrack "Maximum Overdrive" people have mentioned. It's a good soundtrack BTW because it features AC/DC songs.
on AC/DC's official TH-cam channel they have this song (as you obviously know!), but someone put in the comments; "An army of Angus Youngs? No country deserves that kind of power!"
and I like that you talk about what it is that you believe in God, questioning the Bible's validity. for myself, I have no questions about it anymore. my son, however, does question it, and we have had conversations regarding it. I told him that it's good that he's questioning it, because if you don't question it, you'll never really know until you do the research yourself and do a deep dive into it. And if that strengthens his own faith, then the Bible has done its job.
My favorite ACDC songs are numerous - but if I had to pick a couple it would be Hells Bells and Rock n Roll Ain't Noise Pollution.
The oldest joke. “Angus and Ac/dc sit down for an interview, the man asks “ why have you made 18 albums that sound the exact same.” And angus says “we’ve made 19 albums.”
For more substantive AC/DC songs, you should check out, "What's Next to the Moon', "Down Payment Blues", and "Sin City", studio versions. No one reacts to those, but they are incredible and will not be what you expect. "Ride On" is another.
Seconded - especially "Down Payment Blues" - but their entire back catalogue contains album tracks that could so easily have been singles - so much good writing, so many good riffs.
This 💯!!!
Angus was just WILD when he was young!!!
Awesome Concert❤
Best Rock 'N' Roll band in the world. Right? Only the Stones will out live them, and they're my #2. I'm a Christian. Aussies know what's up. The Lord is coming take us home brother.
Along with "Shoot to thrill", this would be my favourite Brian Johnson/ACDC song.
The album who made who was written for the movie Maximum overdrive.
From the movie motion picture, maximum overdrive.And my absolute number one ACDC son6
I’m not sure about individual songs as far as which songs made it the highest on the Billboard charts but as far as albums go, the second best selling album of all time is AC/DC Back In Black. 10 songs of pure fire.
