Thank you, my friend TSgt Joe C. for sharing the official music video of AC/DC performing "Highway to Hell"
Thank you, my friend Maj Marty Hogan for mentioning me.
Background on the song fromazlyrics.com/lyrics/acdc/highwaytohell.html
"This song was the first single off of "Highway To Hell" album. It is one of the band's most-popular tracks. It has been played at almost all of their concerts.
One origin of this song's title was a nickname "Highway to Hell" given to the Canning Highway in Australia. It runs from Fremantle and ends at a bar "The Raffles" and has a very steep slope at the end where many people got killed by driving too fast over the top of the hill.
Angus Young (guitarist) once said that being constantly on the road while touring felt like being on a highway to hell. AC/DC had to promote their several previous studio albums and the tour schedule was really tough.
Brian Johnson (vocalist) said of this song's origin in October 2009, "It was written about being on the bus on the road where it takes forever to get from Melbourne or Sydney to Perth across the Nullarbor Plain. When the sun's setting in the west and you're driving across it, it is like a fire ball."
At the time this song was released, there was a highway Route 666 in the USA running through Arizona and Utah. It was renumbered later because of rumours of ghosts and unexplained events.
This song was the band's first one to chart in the USA. It helped the album become a big success with more then seven million copies sold there."
"Highway To Hell"
Lyrics
"Livin' easy
Lovin' free
Season ticket on a one way ride
Askin' nothin'
Leave me be
Takin' everythin' in my stride
Don't need reason
Don't need rhyme
Ain't nothin' that I'd rather do
Goin' down
Party time
My friends are gonna be there too
I'm on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
No stop signs
Speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel
Gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me around
Hey, Satan
Payin' my dues
Playin' in a rockin' band
Hey, mamma
Look at me
I'm on the way to the promised land
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
Don't stop me
I'm on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
(highway to hell) I'm on the highway to hell
(highway to hell) highway to hell
(highway to hell) highway to hell
(highway to hell)
And I'm goin' down
All the way
I'm on the highway to hell"
