Thank you my audiophile friend SGT (Join to see) for posting the official music video of AC/DC performing 'Thunderstruck' in honor of the fact that on September 24, 1990 - AC/DC released 'The Razors Edge' their 11th internationally released studio album.

Song background from azlyrics.com ' Angus Young explained in the liner notes of the album's 2003 re-release, "Lyrically, it was really just a case of finding a good title ... We came up with this thunder thing, based on our favorite childhood toy ThunderStreak, and it seemed to have a good ring to it. AC/DC = Power. That's the basic idea."
AC/DC charged $500'000 for the use of this song in the film "Varsity Blues" (1999) in the scene when the team is hungover from the previous night. It was one of the biggest deal of that kind.
This song was playing during early hours in some of Iranian nuclear facilities caused by a computer virus that infected computers there in July 2012. Playing the song at full volume was one of the effects of the worm virus.'

"Thunderstruck" written by Angus McKinnon Young, Malcolm Mitchell Young
Lyrics
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah
Thunder, ah

I was caught
In the middle of a railroad track (thunder)
I looked round
And I knew there was no turning back (thunder)
My mind raced
And I thought what could I do? (thunder)
And I knew
There was no help, no help from you (thunder)
Sound of the drums
Beating in my heart
The thunder of guns (yeah)
Tore me apart

You've been
Thunderstruck

Rode down the highway
Broke the limit, we hit the town
Went through the Texas, yeah Texas, and we had some fun
We met some girls
Some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules
Played all the fools
Yeah yeah they, they, they blew our minds

And I was shaking at the knees
Could I come again please
Yeah them ladies were too kind

You've been
Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Thunderstuck
Oooh, Thunderstuck

(Yeah)

I was shaking at the knees
Could I come again please

Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Thunderstruck, Thunderstruck
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Yeah It's alright, we're doin' fine
Yeah It's alright, we're doin' fine, fine, fine

Thunderstruck, yeah, yeah, yeah
Thunderstruck, Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, whoa, baby, baby
Thunderstruck, you've been Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, Thunderstruck, Thunderstruck
You've been Thunderstruck"
