#TribalPeopleReact #acdc #highwaytohell
Hi guys. I am Australian. I love AC/DC. Working class lads made good. Grew up dirt poor in a bad area. They practised for hours every day. I am in my 50s, non-religious and open minded. I loved seeing through your eyes at my culture through your own. That said, the song isn't about a literal highway to hell. They guys were young when they wrote this song. It is about non-conformity, freedom, rebellion against the older generations and not doing what they were told. When we hear it, it is about that freedom of spirit, not about satan, religion or hell, and it makes you young again. Keep bringing us more reactions.
I love AC/DC, but George Young is one of my heros. He was so very talented.
But his little brothers in that rock band did good, too. 😄
@@kelf114In the Easybeats movie, Friday on my mind, the bass player, Dick Diamond is visited by a Dutch missionary sent by his religious parents. And the Dutch guy tells him that he was travelling on a road that was leading him to Satan or something similar to that. I'm guessing that was the inspiration. ✝️
@@berranari1 No idea but seems it could be.
Well said! You articulated this perfectly! Thank you. Wait until they try Rage Against The Machine. That might be a stretch to far, but is a bench mark for my generation, 48 here.
Love the reactor guys! I agree with everything the guy said in the comment above, just want to underscore that these kids were told if you don't do this or that then you are going to hell (or something to that effect). The words are being directed at the older generation as if saying, "well, if you think I am going to hell, so be it, I guess I'll just be going to hell." The younger generation doesn't believe it, but say it just to give a fatalistic reply to the older generation who they're finished arguing with. The joy that you see amongst the crowd is the joy of being released from the restrictive norms of the past.
Now that said, almost every one of these young people will go through their experimental stage to some degree or another with the greatest enthusiasm and ecstatic joy that perhaps anything is possible, but those of the older generation just end up accepting they will eventually land back to earth knowing that most of what they dreamed of is just a beautiful illusion. And I think many of the young people listening deep down know this as well but just want to feel that sense of ecstasy in believing that anything is possible.
It's kind of complicated to explain to someone of a different culture who may or may not understand these things (although I suspect this phenomenon is probably universal to some degree or another concerning the generations). To tell you the truth I never even thought about it before, so I had to think about it as I was writing this. Now that I'm an old man (I'm probably as old as the man with the white beard--[Hello, my comrade in time!]), I have to go back to remember how I felt and why I felt it. It really is amazing that something so obvious as that has to be dug up from your mind to figure out where it came from and its motivations.
Best wishes to all!
''Life's journey is in a vehicule that doesn't have any reverse gear''
It should be printed on a t-shirt.
That was the best line, I loved it.
Our Pakistani brother is very wise.
❤️
And the only way to look backward is if you initiate the action to turn around.
No joke! I want to tell my kids this when they get older!
Yeah, that line hit me deep in the feels!
Loved that quote
''Life's journey is in a vehicle that doesn't have any reverse gear''.....perfect!
Hi Trybals, The lyrics to this song are actually all metaphors, the group had spent years touring and were getting tired of it. There is a Highway in Perth Australia, that they used to drive every night to go to their gig, and at the end of the road was a dangerous corner where a lot of people lost their lives, and the highway got the nickname " Highway to Hell" because of all the deaths, the reference to Statan is aMetaphor to their record company making them work so hard, hence you here the reference in the song"Hey Statan I've paid my dues", you will also hear many other references in the song about t the highway, like "no stop signs", "speed Limits" etc. this is not a religious song, or about hell, the horns came about by fans and was adopt by the band as part of the show. I was a roadie in the early days working for AC/DC.
that makes sense. very interesting, thank you.
Always loved this song (along with many other AC/DC tunes), love knowing the back story!
True. If I remember correctly, Bon Scott used to travel along that particular highway when he went to see his friends in a pub.
That’s really interesting. Thanks for sharing!
@@vibingwithvinyl Canning road👍
I love Abdul and his wisdom so very much. Please let him know that I am a great grandmother that lives in the USA in a state called Alaska. It’s filled with ice in the winter and the northern lights and in the summer all the beautiful trees and the glaciers, waterfalls and beautiful animals everywhere. Please let him know that I see God in him, and he inspires me.thank you God bless all of you
"This song is in no way about sadness, it is about love and joy", I'm crying, I love that old man and everything he is.
ME TOO! Mr. Abdul He is my favorite !
I'm in concurrence 😂❤.
This guy gets it!
Not much love and today! Who's the president??😢😢
A name of Shaitan is Desception and his way is Temptation. And those three Noble Men were genuinely taking Shaitan side there =)
Muharam is a hard rock man.He always likes the heavy stuff. Abdul is to me a wise old man. Someone that has many stories to tell. I know this music is not from their part of the world,but still they listen and analyse with respect. I like how they Don't judge. That kind of people I respect. Hello from 🇫🇮. All the best to our Pakistani friends.
Abdul understood the metaphor of the song better than my own family did the first time they heard it, that's for sure
Muharam has long since proven himself a metalhead without even knowing it lol
Very honest and unbiased men with a natural and deep understanding of music and its place in life . I love these videos.
Very well said.
Very.
These guys are always well spoken
Those men are polite and honest when they tell their opinions. Thanks, greetings from Finland.
😊 best reaction I've seen in years. These people are very intelligent and philosophical. I wish more Americans were like this. 😢
These men are so wise. I love to see how they react to things. They really surprised me.
AC/DC had a heap of irony and humour about themselves. They didn't take themselves seriously. Got to love the Aussies!🦘🪃 Great reaction!
Maybe they'd like Big Balls :D
We dont take ourselves too seriously. We were basically colonised by the British. (Of course the native population was here for between 50k and 80k years and we wiped around half of them out, but also Chinese, Dutch, German, Irish, etc). British humour is full of irony and self-depreciation. We are much the same. We are also very anti-tall poppy syndrome.
I have been a stagehand for 30 years and I have sat in a spotlight position directly above ACDC's drummer on 2 occasions, specifically, to keep a spotlight on Angus Young. It is one of the highlights of my career. The view I had was unmatched.
I love that they can look beyond the superficial horns and fire and find the beauty.
"Life's journey is a vehicle that doesn't have a reverse gear"
The older you get, the more the bitter truth of that statement sinks in.
You start life with a billion potential paths in front of you ...and with each decade, you have fewer and fewer potential choices in front of you.
...But you can still see the ones in your rear view mirror ...fortunes you might have made ...loves you might have known ...places you could have lived.
They will all haunt you, because you know you don't get to run it back and do it again.
Wow! Deep 😁👍
Interesting point but in the end its just a perception that we think we missed out. In reality if you wanted to be there, you were there.
Actually, there's plenty of evidence that this is not our only time in this place. It's not an idea that I enjoy at all because I find this world to be pathetically absurd, but there's enough evidence to show that I have to accept the idea anyway. So, you might have never been here before, but this is the first of many times you will be here.
I am amazed by how these people can actually listen to and analyze the lyrics in a far more profound way than most people I know. I mean, to come up with things like "he should just listen to his heart" and see the lyrics as cautionary tales for all the people? True words of wisdom!
This song was actually inspired as they were driving on a long, remote highway in Australia, which has the nickname "Highway to Hell".
But it was written creatively, so that it can be taken literally, or metaphorically to refer to a sinful partying lifestyle.
I wish that was explained to them. 🙃
The reaction in Abdul's eyes to the crowd jumping was great. I believe Abdul has been Thunderstruck!! Peace/JT
The elder gentleman (Abdul) is very, very wise. It's quite humbling to listen to his perspective on this spectacle.
And the expression on his face--throughout the video??
PRICELESS.
Abdul thinking the devil horns could be a beauty standard is so fucking funny, I love him so much
Iirc in their area of the country there's a big mixture of various ethnic groups with all sorts of traditional dress and adornment, they're probably used to seeing very different people
I enjoy these videos because of the sensibility they have in their breakdowns of different music. Particularly AC/DC, because of how controversial people made them out to be, and by their own admission. But as one of the gentlemen said, "they seem they can choose right or wrong for themselves", speaking of the crowd. Whereas we have umbrella parents here who like to be up in arms over any little thing. So, thank you for sharing these great humans with us. It's a breathe of fresh air! Cheers, and God bless.
he nailed it with 'celebration and joy'
I hope the guys from AC/DC watch this.
I love the talking at the beginning, you get to know a lot about their personalities before you launch right into it.
one of the best videos you've ever done. It's so great that you guys enjoy the music so much but it just really makes me happy to see how well everyone on the show understands the meaning of the music. As an American radio DJ I can tell you guys that there are Westerners that can't separate the music from the metaphor as well as you gentlemen do. Keep up the good work. Love the channel
This rection was spectacular and I am deeply grateful to the channel for it. Experiencing the song this way was special and thought provoking.
For me, when I performed this song, it was spiritual. It was indeed about joy and freedom and above all love and wanting only for everybody around me to have the best possible time. In those moments I loved them all sincerely.
My Mum died and she loved everyone. She was very empathetic and compassionate. I would throw my arms wide and look skyward and sing Hey mama straight to her. The 'Highway to Hell' for living this way is not real. Living free to love everyone is truth. Everything else is of 'Satan' and the lie. But the world will try to take that truth from you. If you let it.
The Promised Land is not denied to those who love, don't place conditions on that love, and who spread joy through their passions.
'I'm on a highway to Hell' is a sarcastic defiance, a mimicry of the liars and fear mongerers who want to restrict us, limit us and keep us living in fear.
All these men felt the power of the joy and the freedom in this music. It was a beautiful response to one of the best songs.
According to many bands, the most encouraging crowd is the one from my country argentina, this video it is in River Plate, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
You are very beautiful, wise, kind human beings. Thank you for your refreshing insights and genuine humanity. Bless you all
I have seen them preform this live. The concert was unforgettable.
I saw them too and I forgot everything....lol
@@j.h.3777 Sounds like you had a great time hahaha
It was the '70's or '80's...@@revangerang
This concert was so loud that it registered as an earthquake of 5.4 on the Richter Scale. It literally shook the earth.
I think you may quickly hit 1 million views by shear title alone. The world needed a video called Tribal People React to AC DC For The First Time and you simply gave it to us.
Aww everyone is so open to how the music makes the audience and themselves feel. I like how they don't Just interpret the lyrics that must come across as pretty volatile to them at times due to the cultural differences... Your reaction channel is great for building two way bridges and respect to the west for everyone in this world... ✨🌸
AD/DC is one of those groups so absolutely LEGENDARY that, if they say they will do a concert in any city, without the need for advertising, the tickets sell out in a matter of minutes on the website of the company that sells them. They ALWAYS fill the events, no matter the capacity they have and the concert is always a pleasure.
Hello. I am blown away by the wisdom expressed here. I was not expecting to be captivated……but I was. Great show guys.
I remember seeing and hearing AC/DC in the early 70's at a tiny venue in outer Melbourne before they became what they are today. That was when they had the late Bon Scott as lead singer. Their energy hasn't dimmed in all those decades. I and they were young then! Still like their music.
I always like watching Trybals videos and the reactions of all the tribal folk. They are very open minded and wise.
Steve
I love watching your channel! Keep the videos coming! ❤
Thank you! Will do!
I absolutely love how I can learn things I already knew from a completely different perspective. These men and their families are welcome in my home at any time. Of course they must overlook the way that I live. We would get along just fine. No leaders required.
If only more people could see the world the way these people do!
Such kindness and open mindedness.
I am always struck by the calm, simple wisdom of these people. They understand much about people from cultures that they have never experienced and the basic similarities of humanity.
If everyone were as humble and and open minded as you guys, we would truly have peace worldwide!! Keep it up I love your videos!! ❤
These guys have brilliant insights.
I love all three gentlemen: they each bring something different to the videos. Thank you all.❤
3 very wise men, and the saying of, life is like a car journy with no reverse, just found the channel and love it, honest people saying truth
This concerte was Argentina 2009. I was there
I always love watching your videos! It's so fascinating to see men from a country that's thousands of kilometers away from mine and who, considering their background and their culture, are as different from me as they could possibly be watch and enjoy the exact same kind of music I love and enjoy. And I love to hear their insights and opinions and how they always understand what a song is about even though it's from a very different culture than their own. Music is truly the universal language.
I've always appreciated what the guys who take time to do these videos with you have to say but I feel like they have gotten such complex answers to even simple songs now, all of them had something unique to say about what they thought of the lyrics and performance, cool to see their opinions evolve
Yay!!!🎉🎉 AC/DC ❤️
I love AC/DC so much I tattooed AC/DC around my ankle 😁
AC/DC came out to buck religion and the system at the time in the 70’s.
I hope you listen to more of their songs. There are many good ones ❤
"Life is a journey with no reverse gear"
Well said, sir!
“Life’s journey *is in a vehicle* with no reverse gear”.😊
Really nice how all the panel understood the sentiment behind the song and rocked out with this one. Adnan does a great job of contextualising as always so that nothing gets lost in translation and true appreciation can be made. I laughed at the start when he explained how there are people who are pious and cautious in life, and then there are people living wildly as they please...like Muharam (not a rock star XD)
This is so amazing. Among other things because watching this automatically confronts you with prejudices you might have. There have been so many instances when I expected those guys to say something along a very different line, just to be surprised what they actually remarked.
Thank you, this kind of content really makes me happy.
When genuine curiosity meets respect exchange and dialogue are born. When you share like this everyone is teaching and everyone is learning at the same time.
I wish an healthy and happy life to all of you.
Thanks for making these videos and showing what some people from very different cultures think and feel about Rock/Metall music from the west. These men are really respectful and got pretty open minds. It is really awesome to see and hear what they think and feel about this kind of music.
AC/DC are awesomee!! I’m only 19 but I’ve been listening to them since I was 8🤟🏽
What an amazing breakdown. The fact they can look beyond some of the lyrical stigma to derive a good message regardless is interesting as heck to me. I love seeing the different cultural perspective on music, especially rock and metal, because we really push norms. But each man saw how much joy one band brings *so many people* and really honed in how that has to be a good thing. And I agree! Music (and food) is the path to world peace!
Sometimes I wonder, especially with a breakdown like this, how well they'd receive an extreme metal song? Heavier than Jinjer. I'd hate to scare or put the poor guys off, but it's a beauty in ugliness kind of thing. There can be some deep, beautiful songs behind the horror show that is metal.
Great Reaction.. again.. greetings from Austria to all of them 🇦🇹 show them other songs from live at river plate 👍🏻👍🏻 let’s rock the tribal people ❤
Man, they went hard straight out the gate with showing them this live version.
I respect and admire their wisdom and words.
I am a massive AC/DC fan.
Wow. That's refreshing. My older generation had a completely different perspective on "rock music" at the time. From Yorkshire, UK. 🎵
maybe because they were subjected to it almost constantly, as painful noise
Hello Gentlemen, I am a 61yo Father and Grandfather from Australia. Your words, observations and your wisdom are bringing me solace. I have grown up on AC/DC May God grant you all a long life full of happiness and good health. God Bless you all!
They formed in Australia, but the 2 founding members were Scottish !Malcom Young the real founder and his younger brother Angus the lead Guitarist. both were influenced by an older brother who had been in a hit group in the UK. They moved to Australia when Angus was 7 yrs old. The singer here is from Newcastle England, as the original singer died. So Born in Scotland , made in Australia
This channel does a fantastic job at spreading the joy and love of the world. Its fantastic for someone like me, who doesnt meet or interact with people from that part of the world very often, and it does a fantastic job of showing people from that part of the world some of the arts and wonders from the part of the world i live in. I love how open the people in this video usually is, and it shows that we are more alike than what the news and politicians often tells us. Its not always that you can say that a channel on youtube actually makes a difference for the good in this world, but i think this does exactly that.
The song was about leaving Australia for the United States for first time(most likely L.A.)and viewing It as the promised land of sex drugs and rock n roll! Life in the fast lane! A true Highway to Hell!
Their wisdoms are so impressive ! Mashoque's love for the oyuth and Chacha's awa for the joy iin the song despite his fear of Hell and his religious point of view, I absolutely love all 3 of them, they are so open minded and humble and full of love.
Hi,
You should listen to:
Baba O'Riley (The Who);
Kashmir (with an Egyptian orchestra) (Led Zeppelin).
😉
Indeed " It's about celebration and joy"
Hear, hear !
Keep up the great work gentleman !
Salaam, friends! Lovely to hear your varied views again!
Tudo é só uma questão de perspectiva no fim.
I grew up with this song! It is fascinating to watch your reactors take this song as it is, and not just at a surface level, their wisdom sees beyond the words to the joy of the performance, and the underlying nature of it.
I am slightly sad that Trump is known to them, it is bad enough us in America have to put up with him, I had hoped some corners of the Earth might've been spared.
So much wisdom from these guys.
Hello guys, you are always stunning, I would never stop watching your reactions ❤️
Thank you 😄😊❤️🌹
USA grew up with Ac/Dc. I hope you enjoy the music.. please keep making videos. I love you all...thank you ❤
I love Abdul Aziz Rind Baloch and he put such a happy face on my face at the end. You are all great people, it's nice to have you on this planet. ❤🙏
Keep coming back. I really enjoy the content you bring...
Love from Texas💜💜💜
While the song was meant metaphorically rather than literally, the song itself gained some irony due to original singer Bon Scott passing away shortly after the album was released. He was believed to have died from alcohol abuse. He was one of those who took such beliefs to an extreme excess. AC DC is still performing though guitarist Malcolm Young passed away a few years ago & current singer Brian Johnson is reported to have almost lost his hearing completely. There are a lot of older bands making current music, I feel simply because they're now reaching their elder years & are trying to do what they still can before they reach a point that they can't do it anymore.
Hell yea ACDC. Can't wait for their reaction ❤
This song is actually about life on the road.
When a blind man cries by Deep Purple (or the live version from Gillan 1990), they will love It...
Or, sweet child in time.
Your videos are wonderful!! So full of curiosity and understanding! Peace be upon y'all !
It’s a song that celebrates the spirit of rebellion and the joy of living life on your own terms. But it’s also a cautionary tale, a reminder that our choices have consequences and that sometimes the road we’re on leads to a destination we don’t want.
I enjoy seeing the reactions of the tribesmen. They understood the song's meaning quite well. They understand it better than some people did in my country of America years ago.
It's fun and adorable watching you guys react! Good job!
This is so good! Their reactions are wholesome, light and curious.
All three of these people are so interesting to watch. From an entirely removed culture and yet can embrace the message even across a language and religion difference. All of these men are wise beyond even their years - and amazing people
I thought the older gentleman's comments were very inciteful on "Highway To Hell", but when he began talking about "Stairway To Haven" he totally missed the meaning. "Stairway To Heaven" is a commentary on people who believe they can gain access to heaven through the acquisition of material wealth or worldly possessions rather than through spiritual endeavors.
Stairway to heaven, by Led Zeppelin
Amazing content, the guys are awesome, each of them has their own distinct personality and are obviously very wise to pick up on so much from the songs i've seen covered so far. This stuff is all so alien to them, and it's so satisfying seeing their enjoyment and amazement at western music. May I please suggest a Rush track for the future, maybe Xanadu for example. There's so much magic in their music I'm sure the team of legends will appreciate the nuances of it.
The wisdom of tem is absolutely amazing. Much much more of westerners this days
I absolutely LOVE watching these men, too often we become closed off by our biases and differences in culture! As much as I try to, unfortunately they can creep into our minds… these men give an honest and genuine respect for our differences and show a much deeper understanding of the beauty in our differences and I think it’s beautiful!
Dude in mostly purple is vibing to it. I’ll bet he bought the album and is grooving to Touch Too Much and Night Prowler on the daily. Fantastic album. Love this way of bringing cultures together - thanks bro!
From what I've heard and read, this song not only is about partying without any limits, but it was more so inspired about their live and experiences on the road as a touring band. At first it's all fun and games of course, but that particular lifestyle can also be quite though and wearing on you as a person, since you just have to keep on going. Bon wrote "Payin' my dues, playin' in a rockin' band... Hey mumma, look at me, I'm on the way to the promised land." He was very tongue-in-cheek like that, giving his lyrics a double meaning. It is about the partying, but also about the dangers/temptations of it. Sadly, that life indeed took it's toll on Bon Scott, R.I.P.
I love what one said. "Life is a journey with no reverse gears"
Btw, these guys are shirtless because it gets incredibly hot when you're in a crowd like that packed so tight together. Most of them that is.
Really love your insights... Your interpretations are really from a good place and it is clear that you have good hearts and see the goodness in people and the music... AC/DC are one of my all time favourite bands... The links with Hell are nothing to do with evil... My understanding is that the because the job the band did was very tough and hard work for them when they were younger they felt that they were on highway to hell and hell just equates with life being tough... but as you can see also really fun...I am so interested to hear your views and so impressed with your considered, wise and positive interpretations... and you are right, the band don't give a sh*t about what people think of them... they live for the moment and live life to the full... Long live AC/CD!!!
It is SO interesting to see what people from other cultures focus on when they watch things like this. Things we take for granted as afterthoughts, they ponder deeply because they have never seen it in their culture.
Im sure most of us would do the same when reacting to things in their culture that we arent familiar with.
One thing that is for certain, when that riff and that beat drops and their heads start bobbing, THERE is your proof that music truly is THEE universal language.
The title and lyrics reflect the arduous nature of touring constantly and life on the road.[2] The highway that inspired the title, Canning Highway, connects the Perth Kwinana freeway to its port Fremantle and was home to many of Bon Scott's favourite pubs and hotels, including the Raffles Hotel. Constant touring and being on a bus and away from family and the arduous pace they kept was a highway to hell.
I love the new set!
I must say I once went to a fancy wedding, held in an art museum no less, and Highway to Hell was the bride and groom's exit music. It was perfect!
The highway that inspired the title, Canning Highway, connects the Perth Kwinana freeway to its port Fremantle and was home to many of Bon Scott's favourite pubs and hotels, including the Raffles Hotel. "There were hundreds of riffs going down every day," recalled Malcolm Young. "But this one, we thought, 'That's good.
I adore everything about this channel ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
At 12:13 Mashoque says "They are all Ustads." Being the inquisitive sort, i had to look it up, and it's now my new favorite term!
Ustad
Etymology: Urdu and Classical Persian
Meaning:
1. Expert or skilled person (particularly in music)
2. Master of an art or occupation
3. University professor
4. Title of respect (for someone who is skilled, especially a musician)
5. Teacher
6. Honorific
LOVED watching them watch The Boys! We feel the same way EVERYTIME we hear it too!
I love this. You all are amazing men and women. I wish you all peace and love. Praise God !
