The lead guitarist, Angus Young, is one of the most energetic performers ever. Dude never stops moving
And he didn’t drink or do drugs!
His energy is amazing. I'm such a fan. Since he married a Dutch lady I had to go see one of his mansions. It didn't disappoint. It's as loud as his appearance 😂
Even after hearing it for the 100th time, this song still hits you like lightning!
We've got a long way to go for 100! 😂
I find it hard to believe they have never heard this song its on commercials movies etc.
#Thunderstruck⚡
@@2cleoIn Australia GM Holden used this song to advertise the The Holden VU SS Ute (pickup) , which was called the storm edition.
After 12 concerts it still hits home!!
You chose a great song as your first AC/DC reaction and I'm REALLY glad you watched the Official Video instead of just an audio. You have to SEE AC/DC to really appreciate them.
If you react to any live AC/DC, make sure it is at River Plate 2009. One of the biggest crowds at around 70,000. They played 3 nights in a row and sold out all 3 nights.
Especially Whole Lotta Rosie - so much fun.
@@LadyIarConnacht The look on people's faces when they see that song at Riverplate with the "you know what" on stage........ Priceless!!!!!
Agree, seeing the River Plate version, 19 years later, is crazy!
200,000 fans (3 sold-out nights) after a 13-year absence from Argentina
They formed their band in Australia, but Angus and Malcolm (and their other singer Bon Scott) were all BORN in Scotland. They moved to Australia as kids.
Brian Johnson (this singer) is from NewCastle England
And Cliff is from the UK either
The drummer in this video is chris slade also from the uk
It is amazing that he is playing that guitar riff in the very beginning with ONE HAND!!!!
when you finger a note it makes a step up noise and when you release a note it makes a step down noise.Its called "hammering" on and off. he is only using these hammer ons and offs to fire off this melodic fast riff that fills the whole measure as the huge drums can be very basic and create this incredible song. its basically an arpeggio in its function.
He actually plays it picking the notes, which is harder than using hammer ons and pull offs. If you play guitar you can easily hear how each note is actually being picked. Angus just uses one hand for the wow effect in the video. Any time playing live he uses both hands for the riff
@@andjustjizzforallamazing detail to know. Thanks for sharing.
No, he isn’t. This is just the music video. I’ve lost count how many times I have to correct people that Angus is picking every note in that song. Watch any live performance, he’s not playing with with one hand. I speak as a guitarist and know how to play this song.
Great reaction! One of the greatest Rock and Roll bands of all time! From Australia, but the boys are from Scotland.
Welcome to the wonderfull world of AC/DC, the all time greatest hard rock band 🤘❤🏴
This song became very popular when it was used in the movie Battleship. There is a video showing portions of that movie with this music. It is well worth the look.
This was their biggest hit since "For those about to rock." It's gotten significant airplay over the last 30 years, and it is used widely in sports venues as background/wind up music.
1.4 billion views in CZcams just this song. Nobody has come close to the ACDC. The best concert group ever.
You asked if there's more AC/DC songs you should listen to, yes! So many and so much energy, you haven't even scratched the surface of this iconic band.
Long Way To The Top by ACDC .....One of their early ones but one of the best
I can listen to this a million times and each time is like the first. Magnificent 😍
When I saw A/C D/C just before Malcolm passed, they are one of thee loudest concerts I have ever seen. They rocked from start to finish and have to be one best bands live.
My favorite AC/DC songs have always been Baby Please Don't Go and Back In Black. Thanks for sharing your reaction.
"Shook Me All Night Long", "Highway To Hell", "Back In Black", "Big Balls", "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", "Whole Lotta Rosie" and "For Those About To Rock" are all bangers.
Back in Black coming next!
@@barsandbarbells2022 Iron-man theme song
"For Those About To Rock" is the ultimate banger at their concerts as the big "guns" turn around and "BOOM" over the audience on the "FIRE!" command! Tightest band I've ever seen live.
Hells Bells!
Big Balls
Angus Young and AC/DC in general could be the most iconic sound in music.
Half a sec of any track and a lot of people would guess what it is.
Probably their most iconic would be Highway to Hell. Yall can check it out. The studio version. It's the first lead singer Bon Scott thats singing in it. This was Brian Johnson who took the lead singer spot in 1980 after Bon Scott passed away.
Oh oh, their first lead singer wasnt Bon, it was Dave Evans. A short time ( almost a year) but their first and original singer.
2:33 Remember when this was made there were NO GoPros. There was a fairly sizable camera on the end of that guitar (they did the drumstick a different way, wasnt as steady though)
You may have heard the start to the song on the movie - Battleship, when the Navy boys started up the USS Missouri to keep fighting the aliens close to Hawaii.
Great reaction today guys! Welcome to the rabbit hole! 😃🐇
Next up for AC DC, I'd love to see you react to; "Whole lotta Rosie". Live at River Plate stadium. The crowd alone will blow your mind! 🤯
The regular videos are great, but you need to watch the live performances!
Two movies that come to mind. The first was Varsity Blues. It's a movie about Texas high school football. The more recent was Battleship. Movie combining the board game with an alien attack. Great reactio!
This song is played at almost every sport event you'll ever go to, timeless and rocks!!
You should have done the live version from River Plate!!! BTW, it was in Iron Man, along with other AC/DC tracks such as Shoot to Thrill. And the band formed in Australia but most of them were born in either Scotland or England.
If you ask them they will tell you they are an Australian band. Their sound was born and honed in the pubs and halls of Australia. They have actually corrected English interviewers in the past who have tried to claim them.
it wasn't in iron man
@@lucas.2.3.9.4 You're right I suppose, it was in Iron Man 2
@@ianbrooke6342 wasn't in iron man 2 either, just the special soundtrack they released for the movie that had a bunch of songs that weren't in any of the movies
@@stevemurrell6167 I did actually say they formed in Australia. However, Angus & Malcom Young were born in Scotland and moved to Australia when Angus was 8, Brian Johnson was born in England and is still English, Cliff Williams was born in England and is still English, Phil Rudd is the only band member born in Australia. Their original singer the late Bon Scott was also born in Scotland and moved to Australia at age 6.
best rock and roll band ever. No ideology, no hypocrisy, no politic, just only rock and roll...
2nd after the STONES
This song was played on Armed Forces Radio in 1990-91. I was in the desert watching bombers fly over, hearing... You've been ThunderStruck. Watching the air craft fly over, drop ordnance and fly back past us while the same song played... was fricken awesome.
Their original singer Bon Scott died in 1980. The singer you saw is Brian Johnson. The band asked him to join after Bon died. The 1980 Back in Black album was dedicated in Bon's memory.
Songs for you to check out:
Bon Scott Era 1973-1980: Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, It's a Long Way to the Top, Let There be Rock, Highway to Hell, Girls Got Rhythm, Problem Child, TNT
Brian Johnson Era 1980 to present: Back in Black, Hells Bells, Whole Lotta Rosie, Rock and Roll Ain't Noise Polution, Have a Drink on Me, Shoot to Thrill, You Shook Me All Night Long, What Do You Do for Money, For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)
You mean the new guy out front. Rip Bon
*"The band asked him to join after Bon died."*
The band asked him because Bon had told them he wanted Brian to be his successor.
It would be great to go back to the very beginning.. "It's A Long Way to the Top" with original singer, Bon Scott. RIP.
AC/DC tracks are in more movies, commercials and played at more sporting events than any others work! Love your reaction!
How they haven't been booked for the Super Bowl halftime, I'll never know. It would be epic!
You will listening to this when your 70 years old ....promise .
*you’re 😁
As young Aussie kids in the 1970s, we grew up on AC/DC, lucky us! The original lead singer Bon Scott was brilliant in his own right & died way too young. Listen to some of their early stuff when Bon sang leads. Thunderstruck is an all time fave though, no one can stop themselves from automatically head banging to the awesome thump in this track. And that intro is iconic…you might have heard in the movie ‘Battleship’…underrated scene brilliantly soundtracked. G’day from Australia 🇦🇺
Awesome band, I saw them at Hammersmith Oden in London in 1976 just before they became the success they are. I got balcony seats and when the show started, we were told we could move to the floor, that few of tickets were sold. Loved the show and I had never heard of them up to that point.
I’m 56 and have a 15 yr old travel softball player - for the TC Thunder ….. this song was a staple at tournaments !!! Love it!
I feel thunderstruck is in so many movies! Ones that come to mind is the newly super mario bros movie, varsity blues, battleship and the longesr yard off the top of my head. Such a jam!
Oh man, are you on the threshold of a rabbit hole now, if you choose to dive in! So many of their songs over the past 40+ years are high energy hits like this one. "You Shook Me All Night Long", "Jail Break", "For Those About To Rock", and so many more. The lead singer here, Brian Johnson, took over after their original lead singer, Bon Scott died, but Brian's voice was so similar when he auditioned to fill the gap that he was an easy pick for the band, and he's been with them for most of their career.
This may be the best song ever to open a rock concert. I heard this song for the first time back in 1990 and after hearing it I felt like I could run through a brick wall. Incredible energy and a great song to get hyped before a hockey or football game. Got to be careful driving when this song comes on though, this is definitely on the top songs to get speeding tickets to.
He’s playing that riff one handed! And in concert he runs about 10 miles, and since he’s only 5”2 that’s a lot of running! He plays on his back spinning around just amazing
This song was used in Iron Man along with many others. This is my favorite AC/DC song. Glad you loved it.
Also in "Battleship"..best part of the movie!
🇨🇦 The guitar riff at the beginning and end, even the one in the middle, when Angus raises his hand, is all played with the fingers of one hand !
It is said that Angus is one of the top ten guitarists in history, and that Angus could play that riff, while falling down a circular staircase, and never miss a note !
I was looking for this comment!! It’s so crazy that he’s playing that intro with ONE HAN!!!🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯😱
Its all to do with his picks ups height
If you think thats gd watch eddie van halen play eruption
Tommy Emmanuel another Aussie craps on any guitar players.
You are the best couple doing reviews. Now you can hear what it was like growing up in the 80's and 90's . Love you guys . Keep up the fantastic play list PLEASE .
Angus is doing the Duck Walk. To Fun💯😂. Pure Energy
Should have watched the River Plate one with over 75k fans going wild.
You will find the energy with every song of theirs. When you check them out again look for some of the Live at River Plate in Argentina in 2009. The boys were in there 50s and 60s then. I saw them in 1982 when I was 16 and have seen them a total of 7 times. The last was in 2009. You would be hard pressed have a better time at a concert then with these guys, guaranteed. Thanks for the reaction.
Hi guys another great early ACDC song is Its a long way to the top ( if you wanna Rock N Roll ) . The video to that song was shot in my home city Melbourne , with the boys playing on the back of a flatbed truck along with 3 bagpipers.. Yes you have heard the opening riff of Thunderstruck in a movie , the movie is called Battleship
The joy I get from first time reactions from ACDC is heartwarming to see the appreciation of a band I have scene several times live and will cherish those memories forever
This song is also played at a lot of sporting events! It has great energy! 🎶 Such a great song!
I don't know if it's the most popular song by them but I do know that every time I've seen them in concert, and that's multiple times, they ended their concerts with "For those about to rock". That would be a great one for you to check out next.
You can't go wrong with AC/DC.
I love the drummer in this video. He looks like he's just having the best time ever. :)
Now, here ya go! We LOVE the boys from down under.....Ac/Dc. Big shoutout from this old, longhaired, southern boy in East Tennessee- Gatlinburg, Tennessee, that is. Wicked cool that you guys are discovering our music and broadening your musical horizons. Watching and diggin it. Keep-a-rocking. Check their songs out: "Highway To Hell", "Dirty Deeds" "Back In Black", "For Those About To Rock", "Backseat Rhythm", or the myriad of other hit songs they have come out with over the years. Thanks, guys. This was an excellent choice and a nice reaction. I like your style, as ya always appear to be having some fun. Take it easy. Be seeing ya on the next. Later.
There is not song called "Backseat rhythm". I guess you mean "Back Seat Confidential" , the demo version of "Beating around the bush" .
You probably watched the alien invasion movie, "Battleship".
We did!
The song was in the first iron man movie
Iron Man franchise plays a LOT of AC/DC songs.
No this song was never in “ Iron Man”. It wasn’t until Iron Man 2 that Tony Stark flew to his Expo using the song “Shoot to Thrill”. The first Iron Man had the song Back In Black playing during convoy seen in very beginning of show.
Love Angus on Guitar in all ACDC songs since I first herd them as a 13 year old in 1973, awesome
Great one guys, AC/DC one of the biggest hard driving rock bands of all time, and renowned for their epic live performances. Always better late than never lol.Thx and keep em coming. Anything from the River Platte concert is outstanding.
I could list their entire portfolio because I love all their songs & they are just that iconic but I'd really recommend the entire Back in Black album not only because its the highest selling studio album EVER but also its just the embodiment of AC/DC!!! Also check out some Highway to Hell for the legendary Bon Scott!😎😎 I love them so much!!!! Glad ya'll did too!!
In their heyday, one of the biggest rock bands on the planet
Thé greatest rock’n’roll band…Ever!
Still one of the biggest bands ever !
The way you guys were jamming was how I was at my 1st time seeing them in Concert . And Yes I was Exhausted afterwards . You see the River Plate Concert
they have fantastic guitarists! their live performances are FIRE! 🔥🔥🔥
Alot of Australians wish THIS was the Australian Nation Anthem! Imagine this playing as our Olympic team came out LOL!
Your next ac/dc song needs to be live from River Platte. They don't make a bad song so it don't matter which one you pick.
Yeah River Platte is crazy. That crowd was insane!
I love when people enjoy my band AC DC my Era and the first concert I ever went to!! Rock On!!!! 9:11
The greatest Rock & Roll band ever!
do NOT drive with this song playing in the car ... you will find yourself unexpectedly driving WAY too fast. actually, insert many ACDC songs into this category.
Anything from Brian Johnson’s Debut Album “ BACK IN BLACK” is absolute fire. Highway to Hell- With Bonn Scott is always awesome as well. I’m waiting for anyone to do RIDE ON!! It’s a Bonn Scott song. But really shows their bluesy style!! And yes one of Angus Young’s heros was Chuck Berry. So that’s Angus’s signature move, the duck walk!!
You can't help being pumped by this!!!!!!!!!!!
In November 1973, Malcolm and Angus Young formed AC/DC with bassist and saxophonist Larry Van Kriedt, vocalist Dave Evans, and drummer Colin Burgess. The band's first official gig was at Chequers nightclub in Sydney on 31 December 1973.
AC/DC - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
The brothers formed the band, with their brand-spanking new name, with bassist Larry Van Kriedt, vocalist Dave Evans, and drummer Colin Burgess in November 1973, who they likely met on the Australian band circuit.
Wow first time? Amazing!!!!! They are legendary!❤
This is my fav of acdc. Thanks for doing the official video. This has the best quality so perfect from you two 😁
Nothing like seeing them live I saw them 4 times when I was a teenager many moons ago.
AC DC will become one of your favorite bands once you hear there music. That's a promise!
Aahhhh, AC/DC, Always Good for the soul! RIP Malcom and Bon
Welcome to ACDC fan base, they are one of the alltime greats
WOW 193 songs and this is new to you guys, my first time I saw them was 1978 at the Apollo. Their music is all BALLS.
TILL THE ARMAGEDDON COMES AC/DC..💥💥 ROCKS..🤟🤟. AC/ DC LEGACY NEVER DIES..❤️
I've had the pleasure of seeing them on 4 different concert tours(including this one)and They Always put on a Great Show!! Angus Young ( lead guitarist)Always an Energetic firecracker on stage.. You could pick any of their albums and Would not be disappointed...
AC/DC is a rabbit hole you two are going to love discovering!!! TONS of great music!!!
Obviously I love knowing young people understanding this fantastic story!!!!!
This song was used in the film Battleship, great song and yes they have many more including original front man Bon Scott. Check them all out.
You need to listen to ALL of AC/DC's music. You'll be a fan for life!!!
I can't get enough, this must be my 100 time watching this, acdc is pure metal, what fun!!!
Very much a smack you in the ears...AWESOME AC/DC song. Enjoy.
All the best.
Cheers.
Definitely one of my songs to workout to. This became my fave from them. Back n Black. Shook me all night long. Shoot to Thrill. For those about to Rock And others were once my faves, but this has been since its release.😊
Ok, back me up everyone- you HAVE to do Jim Breuer ACDC impression of the hokey pokey...you can thank me later 😂
The loudest rock band in the world I saw them live in Sydney in 2002 my ears still ring
Very cool reaction to AC/DC! I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. I will hit subscribe. Honestly, I didn't get into AC/DC till a few years after this song was released. But now, I am amazed by them!
AC/DC has been going strong since 73 even after the death of there original singer Bon Scott
They blew it over the top when did this at Sars Stock in Toronto, in 2003 they blew the stones out the water that night.
You just can't help smile as soon as it starts. It seems every 1st time reaction has that😊
It absolutely warms my heart to watch a couple of folks who have enjoyed other music hear this for the first time. You're both dancing along like you've loved this kind of music all your lives. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. They have a lot of good music but Steven King also loves them. I think Maximum Overdrive was made in part just so he could play AC/DC in a movie.
Awesome concert seen them live, good jam yeah 🤘😆🤘🎸🎤
They play this tune before the beginning of every home that they have parachutists. It does build you up. I’ve been a fan since the mid 70’s. Rock n roll lives forever obviously. Totally one of the best anthemic songs ever!
I've been a fan since 1975, watch them live 3 times(much to little...😢) welcome to a rabbithole
When we were in HS in the 80's we didn't listen much to the music of 30 or 40 years prior. In the 2020's we are still listening to 30 to 50 year old music today and still rockin out like never before.
Angus is the man!!!🙌🙌
Watch the Live version in River Plate Stadium (Argentina). Craziest crowd ever!!!!!
They played our City just after releasing this album. Open air concert. The exact moment they started this song a massive storm lit up the stadium. Big Lightning huge thunder hard rain. Look it up on CZcams. Thunderstruck Edmonton Alberta concert. It was Crazy
They are actually from Scotland, moving to Australia later.
"Thunderstruck" by AC/DC is featured in several Marvel films, including Varsity Blues (1999), Deadpool 2, Planes: Fire & Rescue, The Longest Yard, Katie and Orbie, Battleship, and Daddy's Home.
Once when asked how he kept his voce sostrong, the frontman Brian Johnson smiled and said, " Whiskey and a pack of cigarettes a day."😁
Brian has a unique singing voice, but his speaking voice is a really soft and pleasent Geordie accented English. He was the Frontman for a band called Geordie in the 70s. They do an amazing cover of the song "The House of the Rising Sun". Strangely enough Bon Scott picked Brian to be his replacement. Bon was watching Geordie perform and he was impressed by Brian's stage antics where he was screaming and writhing around on stage. Bon left the show and when he saw his bandmates Angus and Malcolm Young, was talking about how great Brian was. What Bon didn't know was during that convpcert, Brian's apoendix ruptured and he was writhing and screaming because of an appendicitis attack. Bon left before the ambulance came to take Brian to the hospital.
Years later after Bon tragically died, Angus and Malcolm remembered Brian's name and asked him to audition for the band to replace Bon.
If you've watched any sporting event ever, you've heard this song. Every stadium plays this song.
Angus Young one of the best guitarist ever. God bless
In my hometown in Washington every late July we have boat races. Back in the day they were called thunder boats because those piston rolls royce engines made so much noise. When this song first came out a change was in the offing, they were experimenting with turbo boats. I guess that year we knew things were changing but we didn't want it to. The one turbo boat flipped and crashed and it was the last time the thunder boats dominated. The entire weekend we just put Thunderstruck on replay and it was all we listened to.
