Best AC/DC Songs

Awesome song this is one of the best songs of AC/DC! This is the title track of the second best-selling album of all time, and is by far their best song would tell you that
Man do I feel like jumping while hearing this song! CHEERS
This is the greatest song ever written. I don't understand how it doesn't take Bohemian Rhapsody as the greatest song of all time. If you don't know this song then something is VERY wrong with you. Also this song's album should be top on greatest albums. AC/DC is the greatest band of all time. So they should have taken Michael Jackson's place on the greatest albums. GO AC/DC!
In my opinion, Back In Black is overrated. Don't get me wrong, it's one of AC/DC's best, but not THE best. I mean they have better music like Thunderstruck (better solos), Hell's Bells (better lyrics), and TNT (Better riffs, solos, and lyrics). My top 10 are:
1. Hell's Bells
2. Thunderstruck
3: Dirty Deeds (Done Dirt Cheap)
4: TNT
5: Back In Black
6: For Those About To Rock
7: Problem Child
8: Rock and Roll Train
9: Shoot to Thrill
10: Heatseeker
AC/DC has awesome songs, but Back in Black is easily the greatest! Even people who don't like AC/DC can enjoy this song! Second best selling album ever, with greats like shake a leg, shoot to thrill, hells bells, giving the dog a bone! I have to say AC/DC certainly made a mark on rock and roll history with this song and the whole album in general!

I'm not particularly into AC/DC, but I know when a song transcends its genre, and this one does it. This is so much better than Back in Black. That riff is absolutely infectious. When I listen to it, it makes me feel so amazingly good. I feel this way when I listen to "Time" by Pink Floyd or "Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley. It's just a great song.
I can't decide between this, Highway to Hell, Back in Black and You Shook Me All Night Long, as far as my favourite AC/DC tune goes.
Love the opening, the way it builds and gathers momentum. It's such a departure from the more traditional, harder sounding guitar-work on their other tunes. Timeless stuff.
Thunderstruck has got to be number one. The way the instruments are layered on in the beginning is pure genius. Honourable mention should also be given to "Sin City," and "Gone Shootin, ' " which has a groove that just won't quit. These songs may not be quite Top Ten material, but they are classic AC/DC.
Back in Black is a great theme song for AC/DC, but Thunderstruck has to be their best song overall. It gets me pumped up every time I hear it. The beginning with Angus on guitar just rocks you to the core. Best AC/DC song ever!

The cool thing about this album, even though it was Bon's last, is that it would open the doors for many new bands in the 1980's. Some of the bands even did tributes to Bon. Examples of these are Guns N' Roses (who merged with AC/DC for the Rock Or Bust tour), Metallica covered Highway To Hell, Megadeth covered Problem Child, Anthrax covered TNT, Exodus covered Overdose and Dirty Deeds, Motorhead covered It's A Long Way To The Top, Iron Maiden covered Sin City but these aren't isolated examples. Song name similarities are often known as well, in the case of Motley Crue with Live Wire and Bad Boy Boogie. Of course, other tributes take place. Ozzy Osbourne with Suicide Solution, Crazy Train, No More Tears just to name a few, Motorhead with Ace Of Spades, Metallica with Jump In The Fire, The Prince, Hit The Lights, Whiplash, Fade To Black just to name a few, of course there are several other Metallica songs as well
To me, this is not just the best AC/DC song. It's the best song ever done. Seriously, it cannot be better.
With the awesome intro, probably the best ever, you can feel something is growing on you.
Then, everything starts. No words to describe the level of perfection every single instrument reaches, and the singer, Bon Scott has the best voice I've ever heard.
No matter how old is this song, it would never be old-fashioned.
AC/DC is immortal.
I go nuts whenever this song comes on the radio! You hear that guitar intro and you instantly think "TIME TO ROCK OUT! " There is literally no limit guitar abilities of Angus Young! These rock legends changed my life and they did it with this song.
How do you chose a best acdc song, I would pick pretty much all of them. This song defines the best album in history. Bon Scott deserves more credit then brian may for it haha, classic song for a classic album. Everyone should have to listen to this to pass for their Australian citizenship or something. epic

Saying Back in Black is your favorite AC/DC song is like saying Down With the Sickness is your favorite Disturbed songs... The most popular by each group, but definitely NOT the best... This is the best from the Back in Black album HANDS DOWN!
Perfect song! Brian Johnson's best vocal. I wonder if Mutt Lange pushed Brian to those high notes. It just keeps ascending. Bon was great but this song could only be produced this way with Brian Johnson singing. 5 stars!
I've listened to all AC/DC's songs and this one chills up and down my spine. See what I did there? No? Ok. My favorite of all there GREAT music. When I'm in the car nothing makes me feel more badass with blasting my ears!
The intro alone makes this my favorite AC/DC song. Combining the dark guitar riffs with the echoing chimes of bells that ring eerily really signals the atmosphere and overall tone of this amazing song.

This is the song that got me into ac/dc as well! This song kicks ass! Lock up your daughter and lock up your wife lock up your back door and room for your life! The man is back in town so don't you mess me round!
This song on tony hawk pro skater 4 was my childhood. My sister and I would always play that game and set to only play this song over and over. Great riff and lyrics a true classic.
The greatest Ac/DC song. No wait... I mean the greatest hardrock song of all time. This song is so awesome. This is my favorite acdc song. Screw thunderstruck, screw back in black, This song is the bomb... LITERALLY
Best one, great music and lyrics. I like it because it's simply the best. For really Rock'n'Roll lovers and those who knows what real music is.

This is a great song how it build from the first second. I was into voting this god song and Touch too much It's so catchy .I don't know if they will ever be a band with that same talent.
I just wish and believe that in a good few years they will be that same drummer, singer, Lead guitarist, rhythm guitarist and bassist.
I love this band
Love this one to death I get up and rock out even cry to this song it's so good it brings me tears of joy every time what more can I say. My neighbours have to put up with me having this song blasting out my windows rattle and vibrant I have this song on so many times and so loud.
This song is AWESOME! The order should be : You shook me all night long, thunderstruck, back in black, who made who, it's a long way to the top, for those about to rock, TNT, highway to hell, Hells bells, and shoot to thrill.
This is my favourite song of all time... I love the intro, the vocal by Brian Johnson... Such a true amazing song ever. Besides, this song is actually a love song... I sing this song to my girlfriend... It's so meaningful..

To me, Shoot To Thrill is AC/DC's most progressive song. Cliff Williams' bass playing is off the charts, especially live. When you hear how he plays the bass in this song, (similar to his progressive band roots, prior to AC/DC) you can really appreciate how he was willing to pull back and make the song more important than thd bass riff. Well done, Cliff! You can't help but stand and clap to Angus' guitar tapping in the middle of the song. With Brian Johnson's unbelievable vocals, this song may be top ten of any song, ever!
I remember back in 1980 going to Christian summer camp and spending half the time there listening to the Back in Black album in the camp counselor's car and especially Shoot To Thrill. I just couldn't get enough of it and 30 years later I just love the heck out of this song. Best song on the best hard rock album of all time.
It is very difficult to choose one song from such a great massive catalogue of songs, however if there is one ac/dc song that finds its way onto any playlist I make it is shoot to thrill! It is a great pace for a song to jump up and down to at a concert and the guitar work is great as well
I lose it when it gets to the end of this song... My head starts shaking, my feet start moving, my face starts bleeding happiness all over. People think I'm crazy, but the lead singer just goes IN on those last bars. The chorus is amazing. By far, this is the greatest ACDC song of all time!

I think that dirty deeds is my favorite song it has always been my favorite AC/DC song since I was 7 I still listen to this song to day actually I am listening to this song right now!
Bon Scott will never be equaled and this tune is the epitome of classic ACDC. You immediately get hooked by the opening guitar chords...
You might say I'm a heretic, but Thunderstruck ain't much my taste. But D4C might be the damn best AC/DC song for me with Ballbreaker. All I gotta say.
Best song ever! Especially on the live album which got me into AC DC. Rock On!

I feel this is the best ac/dc song out there. When you listen to it you just get chills throughout your body. It is classic rock at its best. I just do not understand why this is not up there in the top five. In a popularity contest yes Back in Black would win, but I still think this is the best, and I think many people agree with me.
Hearing this song live is damn magic. Especially when they go all out and bring multiple cannons.
Brian Johnson: For Those About to Rock...
Crowd: FIRE!
Cannons: (BOOM)
Brian Johnson: We Salute You!
every time I hear this song, I shiver with enjoyment. I wouldn't say it's the best AC/DC song, but it's certainly my favorite.
You should have heard the cannons and felt the vibrations while seated at the Brendan Byrne Arena! I have never ever felt anything like it! You need to hear this song live and in an arena. Best damn live song ever. I am partial to Back in Black and Shoot to thrill as badass ever songs...
I don't think anybody knows or cares about this song, probably due to being released after back in black, but I mean, the cannons, the guitar. and the screams... It is probably the best song you could ever see at a concert (Rock or Bust 2014 was when I saw them close it off with this, as they do with their other concerts).

Although it doesn't have as much recognition, this song sums up AC/DC the best, honestly it's hard to choose because every song is good in it's own regard, but this is just a classic. & it's hard to give a newer song more credit when this was one of the songs that made them famous. Back & Black and Thunderstruck are overplayed now at this point, gotta dig deeper to the Bon Scott age.
This just epitomizes what AC/DC is! This is the greatest Rock n' Roll anthem ever by the greatest band to ever play Rock n' Roll anthems and what other band could ever do a call and answer between a bagpipe and guitar? In a 1000 years when our decedents dig up our artifacts they will find this song and go, "this is the music that shaped their being! " (Too much? A little over the top? M/
Bon Scott and boys at the beginning! And at the top of their game as well. Give it up to Bon, the mans talent still amazes me after all these years. This is a band who recorded in reverse. The best at the start and the next best later on into a great career. This song should be the #1 song on all lists in regard (s) to AC/DC. Love this band and miss Bon so, so, much!
While most AC/DC songs sound the same, and are usually boring, this song seems to be different from the others, because nobody is going to expect a Bagpipe solo in a rock song, and when you surprise listeners with an uncommon or even rare musical element, then that can really impact a song's greatness.

Best solo ever! Great song and preformed live one of the greatest songs to be made from the album Let There Be Rock. If you haven't heard this song than go search this on you tube you'll listen to it over and over again Angus plays the solo like his life depends on it and the begging is awesome also!
This is easily their best song by a long shot, to me all their songs are master pieces but this just bears them all, while they are all fantastic songs personally I think most of the songs above this are just commercial, this should be number 1, 3rd at least! (Just my personal preference)
This is the best one by far. I can't believe it's so low down on this list. After that intro it really kicks off, the guitar-work is incredible, and we all know deep down that Bon Scott is better than Brian Johnson (even though Brian Johnson is still amazing).
This is really an awesome song. People should listen to this instead of jumping on the really common bandwagon. Has Everything a real rock fan can expect. Starts with a bang and gets mad at the end.

This should be #1. Love that relentless driving beat. It starts out hard and fast and keeps it up! It's like a marathon, don't they ever get tired? And Angus has an amazing solo, again, he's like the energizer bunny! When they were elected into rock n roll hall of fame this was the song Brian Johnson integrated into his speech. Enough said... Let there be rock! Rules!
All time favorite. This song has all the power and energy. This song burns and has it all. Hear the riff, the voice the rhythm... And you've got it, believe me. Good night and rock well...
THIS IS THE BEST AC/DC SONG period. The best song from the best album with the best AC/DC singer. Just for treu fans, I mean, the band has a lot of great songs buts come on, this one tells how the rock was created haha
This song rocks! Hear the Angus Young solos, the Bon Scott voice and the fusion of the drums and bass and you will know what I am talking about! The video is great too

This should be a top ten song don't know what it's doing at number 16 in this list! And by the way, is it just me, or does Brian Johnson sound a bit like Bon Scott in this song?
This song is simply one of the greatest classics ever made.. So low down the order just doesn't do justice to this awesome song!
Why is this so low? This is an amazing song, by any standard. Sure, there are songs like Thunderstruck, but this is just a classic
This is the greatest of the Brian Johnson era and a tie for first of all songs.

"There was a friend of mine on murder and the judge gave him fell. Jury found him guilty, gave him sixteen years in Hell! " Fantastic song about a man doing all in the name of Liberty!
How is this song so low? What a fantastic rock song! One of the very best of the Bon Scott era, which was when they did their best work.
Part where it goes silent and Bon goes "with a bullet in his back! " and then they go back into the chorus is just magical.
This should be Australia's national anthem!

I wasn't expecting this song to be good, but it was! It was better than good, it was amazing! should definitely at least be in the top ten.
The guitar riffs makes you dance the hell out of you. It is on board with back in black and thunderstruck. One of best ACDC songs! You simply enjoy every second of the song and it never gets boring!
It is easily their best song I can't get bored of it and the guitar riffs are amazing! Really worth listening to if you haven't yet because I love ac/dc and I love this song even more! Somehow
Honestly I think this song should be in the top three. It is one of their best songs since highway to hell. Actually it even seems better then highway to hell.

This. is. un.. believeable! What is this song doing down here? Am I the only person who's listened to this and realised what an awesome song this is? I can't listen to it without singing, or dancing for that matter! If you like ac/ dc in the slightest, you should get yourself on YouTube and listen to this song right now!
This is my favorite, although it's not one of the most famous. This is not so explosive as other AC DC's songs, but it has a catchy rhythm and a perfect interaction between Angus's Guitar and Bon Scott's Vocals.
I love this song. When I listen to this it, I go crazy.
Such an amazing gituare solo, such an amazing voice and such an amazing text.
One of my favorite AC/DC songs. Why isn't this in the top ten?
This song deserves more credit. It's a great song from a great album. And it's one of my favorites. This is a song you can really get into and even sing or dance to.

Mate, if you are just starting to like AC/DC, or you enjoy the bands music, this is a great song to listen to and even play on the guitar. I totally recommend this song and or album to anyone that is a huge AC/DC fan like me!
AC/DC Is the best band ever and any other band couldn't make better songs even if they tried!
My absolute favorite ACDC song ever. All of their songs are great but this one just gets you pumped up for anything! I always listen to this in my 67 Mustang and have hit 100 more than a few times with this song blaring!
Hands down top 3 AC/DC songs ever. Great intro as well, for 30 years I've been cranking this masterpiece and never tired
I love it! This is really my favourite song ever

Very underrated. The vocals and its contrast with the guitar part is amazing. It's so catchy and the guitar solos are cool. Not their best song, but it should at least be in the top ten.
VERY UNDERRATED, best ac/dc song and with the best solo, this song should be in the top 3, and back in black under top 20, people vote it because it is the most known song, but it isn't so good.
One of my favorite songs of all time! I can't believe it's at 14 right right now. By far one of their easiest songs to get in to. I guess I'm just shocked more people aren't into this.
That was AC DC's highest charting single to date, peaking at number 23 in the US Billboard Hot 100.

This is classic acca dacca. I love Brian Johnson but Bon Scott is a legend and this tune just rocks. Its got its roots in Chuck Berry and it adds a snarling twist. Its brittle opening chords and cool groove just can't fail to get the party rocking. The vocals are quiet in the mix and its production is so creative. This needs to go up in the ratings.
I'm a percussionist and honestly I like this drum part the best. First of all AC/DC's drums have the best tone to them, and second of all it should be up there ^. But I can understand being that it is AC/DC and all of their songs are amazing.
This song should be number 11, 12 or 13 not 17 vote this one up come on! Amazing guitar singing bass drums love this one great tune really electric
Best Bon Scott song! The only song that makes me drop everything and head bang!

This song is absolute magic! It has a nice dark tinge to it that most of their other songs don't really have! And might I say that the backing vocals just add to the whole dark feel! Top Notch
I love this song it's a shame it's so underrated. Definitely their heaviest song, the atmosphere is just amazing should be in the top ten
How can it be out from the top ten? Comes the razor's edge! The atmosphere of it is magic.
This is one of my favorite songs of all time. Simply Love it, wish acdc had more songs like this one. Woo!

Clearly one of acdc's best, and most underrated songs. I remember buying highway to hell from a record store when I was a kid and when it hit this song, I played it about 5 more times before I moved on.
Every time I try to consider this one being lower than #1 in the ranking, it simply doesn't want to go.
Best song I've heard by AC/DC... And I'm quite the fan. Clearly this song should be up in the top 10.
This is the first AC/DC song I heard and ever since then, I've been in love with their songs.

I can leave the air guitar down when this track comes on..
One of the best.

Just got into AC/DC this year. Buying their CDs one at a time. Just caught up with this one and SUL stood out immediately. Being a newbie I come in with fresh ears that haven't heard these songs since the mid 70s. Also liked Meltdown and Safe in NYC.
Because it's one of the best AC/DC songs ever! Gives a good feeling when you're listening to this while driving.
It's a must have on top rock songs of all time!
One of their most recent, best and underrated songs of all time.
20? You are crazy this song must be in top10

In my opinion, this is the hardest rocking' AC/DC song around. That mammoth riff, those screaming vocals, the pounding drums and of course, that sexy, thumpin' bass. Roughest, toughest song there is. Rock hard, rock on!
This wasn't on here so I put it on... Come on... It's an amazing song why isn't it already on here!
A very underrated AC/DC song, it's one of the best songs on the back in black album!
Best strip club music ever...

I always hated ACDC. Did a Google search for must have metal albums and back in black was at the top. I was blown away. I now have almost the entire collection. This one is probably my favorite at this point. Funny how a band I hated is now up there with the likes of Led Zep, U2, Floyd. Love ACDC.
So catchy and underrated. By far my favorite AC/DC song
Too bad they never play it live
One of their best.
