Can't say I've ever heard this rock classic performed this way.

And I'll venture a guess not many of you have either.

2CELLOS - Thunderstruck [OFFICIAL VIDEO] - YouTube

And another one...
Classic rock with a classical bend.

That was somewhat less than optimal...

There's always room for cello!

Blame the meds.

You are sick, twisted, and wrong on countless levels.

I admire that in a person.

Not bad. Should it have been called "Dueling Horsehairs?"

Actually my niece sent me that one this morning. Apart from the fact that they felt the need to perpetuate the tired hillbilly stereotypes, I loved it. Those guys can play.

So can the kids playing cello. Lots of talent there, and the audience reaction shots are fun.

I suppose that poor lad burned the rest of his hair off when he got too close to the exhaust pipe.

Sorry. I think I know my rock music pretty well. I listened to all three but still have no idea what they were playing.

 

[handejector]

I think the piper was in Tina's backup band in "Beyond Thunderdome".
Or maybe he was a mechanic in "The Road Warrior".
I forget.

Them country boys was good. Sum ov em look like they cud be cuzins. Or bruthers. Maybe they's both. The one sangin plays a meen anvil.

Them other boys got tha bigess fiddles I ever saw.

 

[coltle6920]

I guess Caj will be along shortly with a version with the toothless boy from Deliverance.

 

[rags]

Ahhhh yes! The Internet!!!

Who's got the one with the guy playin' Thunderstruck with a 10-22?

 

[gregintenn]

I've actually seen these guys in concert.

I know that fartgas will flame up, but what on earth has the bagpipe guy been eating to make his breath so much like that of a dragon ?

 

[LVSteve]

Some outstanding stuff there.

 

[rwsmith]

This was wild....

Yeah, that's it.....wild.




I guess I was a Beatles fan and not in the Rolling Stones camp because I've never heard any of this except the Oh-way-oh part.

"Walk Like An Egyptian" was foisted by a girl group called the Bangles. I'm not sure they ever did anything else that's remembered today.

But even by the standards of this thread, the Cleverlys version is one of the silliest things I've heard in a long time. I'll have to pass it along to my silly relatives.

The cello players were recently part of Elton John's touring band.

Personally, I prefer the original AC DC.

Personally, I prefer the original AC DC.

I do too, and I'm really sad that Malcolm Young has had to leave the band due to dementia. But these weird renditions are fun as well.
