Saturday 29th December - Song For Today

Yes, I’m back in black

Back In Black - AC/DC

This song features the second lead singer of AC/DC, Brian Johnson. Singer is possibly debatable because I’ll be honest, I did not know what the actual lyrics of this song were until I was looking for the lyric to post. He has a unique style which means you can barely understand any of the words he is singing and he sounds a bit like a tickle me Elmo doll given a microphone. I’m not a fan - I preferred Bon Scott.

However I love the guitars in this song and oddly the chorus is one of my favourites to sing along to. It is amazing to me that I can still love a band and yet not like the singer. This is my favourite song with Brian Johnson as the singer. Seriously if you can listen to this and not move at all, then you’re probably unconscious or immune to rock. Watch the video to find out! ;)

    Brian’s the third singer, mate. Dave Evans was their first.

    The Hayseed Dixie version is much easier to understand, and also rocks out (in a bluegrass sort of way).

    My boyfriend also preferred Bon Scott as their singer. He always says Brian Johnson sings like Donald Duck on helium. I think he will like your comparison to Elmo. lol
