• The Bon-Scott-Era (1974–1980):

In a few years, AC/DC produced several successful albums, such as Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976), which was not released in the USA until 1981, and Let There Be Rock (1977).

• The Brian-Johnson-Era (seit 1980):Since Scott died in the middle of the recordings for a new studio album, a lot of material had already been composed, so that after the commitment of the new singer Brian Johnson the album Back in Black could be released after a short time. Back in Black is the most successful AC/DC album.

• The 90's: With this album and the hit single Thunderstruck, AC/DC returned to the rock stage and quickly achieved several platinum awards and top 10 placements in Europe, Australia and the USA.

Lyric analysis:

Since there is unfortunately no real music video for this song, I apologize for and only saying something about the boring video.

The Video :

• In the lyrics of the song, the singer takes on the role of an angel from hell.That angel was sent by the devil to kidnap the anonymously addressed listener of the song to hell. The singer compares himself to the irrepressible forces of nature like thunder, lightning and storms, and make clear that resistance is futile.
