Back in Black - AC/DC - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Back in 1980, Australian hard-rock pioneers AC/DC found themselves rebuilding their musical identity. After the tragic loss of their lead singer Bon Scott, the band was faced with the challenge of creating new music that honored their past while also paving the way forward to a new era. “Back in Black,” the second single off the band’s 1980 album of the same name, was a perfect way to accomplish these two goals. Written by Angus Young, Malcolm Young, and new lead singer Brian Johnson, “Back in Black” is a triumphant statement about picking oneself up after tragedy. The lyrics were written as a tribute to Bon Scott and served as a celebration of his wild spirit. Musically, the song is famous for its guitar riff, which is widely considered one of the most iconic guitar riffs of all time. Like the rest of the album, “Back in Black” was produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange. The song reached Number 37 on the Billboard Hot 100. “Back in Black” was also ranked Number 187 on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
