With another epic guitar intro, “Thunderstruck” builds up tension before exploding into a full singalong. This one’s definitely for the tailgaters and loyal alumni who like to slam on the bleachers and yell “Thunder!” along with the Young brothers at every home game. Over a decade after its release, we gotta feeling this song still gets the job done.Ĭlick to load video 5: AC/DC: Thunderstruck There was a period when The Black Eyed Peas’ electro-rap anthem “Gotta Feeling,” from their 2009 album, The END, dominated pop culture: from commercials to sports stadiums, weddings to homecomings, their irrepressible hit was a sure-fire way to fire people up. Each generation gets its own dance-craze hits, from the “Electric Slide” to the “Percolator” the mid-00s had the “Cupid Shuffle,” an infectiously catchy dance-pop hit that’s beloved by all ages. You have to love songs that give exact choreography instructions, especially for those of us not blessed with natural dance skills.
There’s one song that’s quintessentially 80s but sounded like nothing else on the chart: “Come On Eileen.” Without a synth in sight, nothing revs up a dancefloor or tailgate then a couple of banjos, accordions, and fiddles.
