Top Songs With A Constant Rhythm

I've always been a fan of songs that slowly, slowly build. Not the ones - like Freebird or Stairway to Heaven - that build toward a purpose. But the ones that find that rhythm and stay there.

Here are my top pics.

Kashmir by Led Zeppelin -




So Cruel by U2 -




And the one that inspired my post, my all-time favorite Cars song, Double Life -

AC/DC Thunderstruck Revisited

Hello, it's me. I've thought about us for a long, long time.

Since I listed my AC/DC Top 10 Songs, I have been coming across great cover versions of my #2 song Thunderstuck, and wanted to share.

This song is apparently a favorite one to interpret.


First, the original version - AC/DC's video from 1991.





"Finnish band called Steve'n'Seagulls plays AC/DC's awesome song called Thunderstruck. Recorded by Jaakko Manninen Photography. Visit us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Stevenseagulls"




On bagpipes. Sorry.




Luca Stricanoli




Juliana Vieira




"Awesome Kid Band". I especially like the singer's effort. He's trying so hard.




"AC/DC Female Tribute Band performs Thunderstruck". Though I don't see the name of the band.




And my absolute favorite - 2Cellos:

Bonus. 2Cellos - U2's With or Without You. Very powerful.
