AC/DC - Hells Bells
Hells Bells off the Back In Black album. Hells Bells is one of AC/DC's most well known songs due to it being the first track that Brian Johnson sang on. The Rumors that Bon Scott wrote the lyrics are completly false. The song starts off with a tolling of a bell 13 times. The song was written as a tribute to Bon Scott, their original singer, who died after choking on his own vomit due to an alchohol induced coma. The bell in the song is custom made.
