Here we go again! My next rant.
Enjoy!
Have any of you ever listened to The Razors Edge? The album is a great work of art for AC/DC, however, the lyrical content really confuses me. Did anyone notice that Brian Johnson didn't write ANY of the songs on The Razors Edge? None! All music AND lyrics of The Razors Edge album were written by the Brothers Young, Angus and Malcolm. Brian claims, "I ran out of ideas." Some *sshole critic would probably say, "Well, f*ck you, man! If you can't write anything for The Razors Edge, you can't write sh*t!" However, I am not one of those critics. I would probably say, "Well, what happened? Did writer's block catch you or something?" Writer's block is very common among songwriters, you know! It happens! But the funny thing about the album is how "Thunderstruck" came up. Angus Young is on a plane during a thunderstorm, and then some turbulence caused by thunder and lightning happens. Someone says, "What happened?" Flight attendant goes, "We were struck by lightning." Angus pipes up and goes, "No, we were struck by thunder, because it boomed." That, I think, is a very wonderful concept of how "Thunderstruck" is formed. But what strikes me afterward is that the albums AFTER The Razors Edge, like Ballbreaker, Stiff Upper Lip, and Black Ice, all lyrical content is written by Brian? Wow. I can only guess that writer's block caught him on The Razors Edge. Don't be f*cking critics of people with writer's block! It just happens! Look for inspiration! Damn it!

There is something I would like to clear up. All songs on the albums after The Razors Edge were all written by Malcolm and Angus, music AND lyrics. Brian had no part in it. Sorry for the confusion.
