they’re on a highway to hell
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
ac/dc songs for this list we’ve chosen
our entries based on a combination of
the artists fan favorites and their most
commercially successful songs
number ten dirty deeds done dirt cheap
the title cut to a CDC’s third studio
album is an Angus Young Malcolm young
and Bon Scott penned number that’s
everything you’d want from a hard rock
song and more
Scott’s rough-and-ready vocals killer
guitar riffing and lyrics you can’t help
but chant along to particularly notable
for the heavy breathing that accompanies
the verses dirty deeds done dirt cheap
is a fan favorite that has been covered
on several occasions
number nine rock and roll ain’t noise
pollution
we got operations the last track off
back in black is a hard rock and blues
rock number that teachers Brian Johnson
on vocals following the loss of previous
singer Bon Scott
used by Muttley the track didn’t only
confirm that rock and roll ain’t noise
pollution but also that ac/dc was here
to stay
song charted within the UK top 20 while
its parent album topped the UK charts
and became the band’s best-selling
effort ever
number eight whole lot of rosy
recounting Scott’s hot heavy night with
an overweight woman this fast-paced hard
rockers got a whole lot of guitar
goodness
as the last song on their fourth studio
album whole lotta Rosie found a home in
the UK top 20
and thanks to its frenzied pace and
attention-grabbing lyrics it became and
remains one of the Bands most popular
tunes
number seven you shook me all night long
a strong contender for ac/dc signature
tune this three and a half minute track
demonstrated the band could shake us all
night long
after it grabs our attention with its
opening rips the drums keep the beat and
were invited to relive Johnston’s night
with an incredible lover through song
you shook me all night long quickly
became the band’s first top 40 single in
the US and a common selection for live
play
number six for those about to rock we
salute you
with Johnson’s characteristic whales the
band turned an expression used by Roman
gladiators approaching their death into
a shout-out to rockers everywhere
but what makes the title track from
their eighth record even more epic are
the blasting sounds of cannons and
fireworks about two-thirds of the way
through
as such for those about to rock we
salute you isn’t only an ideal song to
pump people up during sporting events
but is also the perfect concert closer
why number five
TNT when it comes to good old-fashioned
hard rock there are a few ac/dc tracks
as explosive as this number by Scott
Malcolm and Angus Young the incredible
energy of the young brothers guitars
combined with its catchy chorus and
lyrics
makes TNT one of those songs you’ve just
got to crank up your stereo for to get
the full effect
number four hells bells
as back in Black’s first song it was
many people’s introduction to Johnson as
a CDC’s new lead singer
bring us in with the recognizable sound
of a bell hels belles ven continues with
the young brothers dual guitar style
before Johnson’s powerful voice takes
over
the result is a hard-rocking
take-no-prisoners kind a number that
hints at what’s in store for the rest of
the record
number three highway to hell
featuring a Malcolm young conceived riff
the title song from highway to hell is
another ac/dc classic with Phil Rudd on
drums clip Williams on bass and the
young brothers on guitar the band took
us for a ride on the highway to hell and
we loved every minute of it
describing the difficulties of life on
the rope
the lead single is pure hard rock and
all ac/dc
number two back and blessed after
Scott’s death ac/dc celebrated their
former singer with this hard-hitting
in-your-face proud driven by the young
brothers bill guitar sounds the two made
waves with an unforgettable rip a
rockabilly influence Lynne and Johnson’s
screeching vocals
yeah
the American top 40 track didn’t only
help back in black become one of
history’s best-selling album
but is also one of their most famous
songs
before we unveil our number one pick
here are a few honorable mentions
Longway
to the top
looking at the sky I’m gonna be
number one thunderstruck
17 years after their formation ac/dc
proved they could still rock with the
best of us

lick Malcolm young scored work and it’s
