okay, however, on the broad spectrum, some of their songs are on the heavy metal side, but you're forgetting that they also had songs such as 'who made who' and 'whole lotta rosey', as well as 'shook me all night long' , (let us not forget 'she's got the jack'- my fave!) as well as more recent songs such as 'safe in NYC', which is more of a hard rock sound than metal.Now, when i think metal (on occasion this Tori Amos/Bjork/Coldplay/Radiohead fan does!) I think... ALL HEAVY, ALL THE TIME. I don't think ACDC. I LOVE ACDC. Don't please, get me wrong. Their classic hits are to be admired and respected, but *I* don't find them heavy enough to be put under the whole heavy label. But that's me. If ACDC is heavy to you, well then get your school boy outfit on and rock her with the shocker (as they say), more power to you! God knows they are going to keep on rocking (for those of you brazen enough to put ACDC under 'classic'- know this, ACDC is still rockin' it out yo!) and so should you! OMGUD.I forgot about them. *shudders*
