There are better and more famous night songs that could have topped the list but I am going with a song that will rock myLot to the rafters. It is my list! The thunder from down under are one of my favorite groups and “You Shook Me All Night Long” says its all. The band was recovering from the death of lead singer Bon Scott and hired similar sounding Englishman Brian Johnson as replacement. The first post-Scott album was the hugely successful “Back in Black” and “You Shook Me All Night Long” the first released single featuring Johnson. Written by Angus and Malcolm Young and Johnson, “You Shook Me All Night Young” peaked at Billboard #35 and became of of AC/DC’s concert staples. Play it loud if you dare.

I'm sure it's a great song. I tried listening to it, but it's really not my kind of music. Never was into the headbanger heavy metal music.

It's hard to recover from such a loss. They did it well!

My taxes shook me all night long last night....so this is a nice reprieve. The one Brian Johnson-era song of theirs I like.
