Really love that bit when the guitar riff at the beginning goes double tracked and song goes up a gear. Fucking awesome. Maybe the last great song Bon Scott wrote.

I would take very few Brian Johnson songs over a Bon Scott song. Much prefer Bon's singing style as well.

Me too but Brian knocked this one out of the park.

I love it and RnR aint noise pollution but i dont prefer either to Back in Black. That's just a monster AC/DC track.

I don't think I've EVER heard it on the radio over here, so maybe I'm not as jaded about it as others. In fact you hardly hear any AC/DC on the radio over here.

Classic rock radio formats here Ill bet you get ac/dc once every 2 to 3 hours.

Led Zeppelin, Allman Bros, Lynrd Skynrd, Yes, Phil Collins, Grateful Dead. I so rarely listen willingly. Why put yourself thru the torture of one decent song per hour.

This and it's definitely one of the best Brian vocals. He will never match Bon but credit where credits due.
