The Australian rock icons are among a small group of classic, non-contemporary acts to appear on Billboard’s Global Top 200 Songs of 2025, thanks to the continued popularity of their 1990 hit “Thunderstruck.” The song landed at No. 183, placing AC/DC alongside a short list of legacy artists whose music continues to resonate worldwide in the streaming era.
The song also appears on Billboard's Rock Digital Song Sales chart at No. 9 and on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart at No. 3 behind only Disturbed's "The Sound of Silence" at No. 1 and Ozzy Osbourne's "Mama, I'm Coming Home" at No. 2.
Released more than 30 years ago, “Thunderstruck” has long transcended its original album, The Razors Edge. The song has become a staple at sporting events, a fixture in movies and commercials, and a cross-generational anthem that continues to introduce new listeners to the band’s sound.
