Doesn't the answer have to be Hells Bells?

Yup, too many to list. But AC/DC's Hells Bells is one of them too!

Agreed, too many to list
I might be showing my age but AC/DC's Jailbreak and Whole lotta Rosie have to make the list, maybe even The Jack.

Dire Straights also have Telegraph Road to add to the list

Just for fun here is another style of music, with a kick ass start......

Unfortunately the movie version is not as good as the Broadway version.

Crank up the volume to 10....

And a video on how the sights and sounds are done for a Broadway Style production:

All good. Go listen to "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder. Not overpowering, but oh so sweet.

When I first moved to LA in the 1980s I rented a bedroom in the penthouse of an older lady who would often drink a couple of bottles of wine in the evening while listening to Guns and Roses and pass out. So still at 3-4 in the morning I was still serenaded to Sweet Child of Mine playing over and over on her music system.

I’ve never been able to handle the sweet syrups sickening sound of Guns and Roses since.
