AC/DC Still Rockin!

I recent attended this tour, and all I can say it "For those about to rock, we salute you!"

AC/DC’s Thunderstruck: A Decade-Long Rock Powerhouse!

AC/DC’s legendary anthem “Thunderstruck” still packs a punch decades after its 1990 debut. Incredibly, the song has just notched 520 weeks on Billboard’s Rock Digital Song Sales chartasiantrader.biz – literally ten years of steady sales! (Billboard’s Rock Digital chart ranks the top-downloaded rock singles in the U.S.en.wikipedia.org.) This means Thunderstruck has been a consistent bestseller on the rock charts for an entire decade, a feat almost unheard of for a song released back in 1990en.wikipedia.org. Its surging from #15 up to #9 on the latest chart underlines just how unstoppable the track remains.

A Record-Smashing Milestone

Since it first hit the airwaves as the lead single from AC/DC’s The Razors Edge album in 1990en.wikipedia.org, “Thunderstruck” has never let up. Today it stands as one of rock music’s all-time biggest hits: it has sold over 15 million copies worldwideen.wikipedia.org! No wonder it’s still dominating rock playlists. Even AC/DC guitar hero Angus Young describes how the song grew from “a little trick I had on guitar” into a full-blown stadium anthem – “we came up with this thunder thing… it seemed to have a good ring to it. AC/DC = Power.”rockintown.com  That raw energy is exactly what keeps Thunderstruck charging up the charts 30+ years on.

An Unrivaled Legacy

Thunderstruck’s decade-long chart run is truly unparalleled. AC/DC has sent nearly 20 songs onto Billboard’s rock charts over the years, but none has ever matched Thunderstruck’s longevity or consistency. In other words, this monstrous hit completely outpaces every other AC/DC single (let alone any other rock track) when it comes to cumulative weeks on the chart. Even now, it’s back in the Top 10 of the Rock Digital chart, showing that no new song is touching it. With 520 weeks and counting, Thunderstruck doesn’t just win – it redefines what a rock classic can achieve.

AC/DC fans and newcomers alike can celebrate: Thunderstruck has reached a milestone almost nobody ever will. It’s a once-in-a-generation smash that still reigns supreme. Here’s to Thunderstruck – an electrifying hit and a full decade as the ultimate rock bestseller!asiantrader.bizen.wikipedia.org
