"Back in Black" is a song by AC/DC best known for its distinctive, powerful opening guitar riff, appearing as the sixth track on their 1980 album of the same title, Back in Black. Two live versions of the song later appeared on both versions of the album Live, as well as the Australian tour edition of Stiff Upper Lip. It has been covered by bands such as The Hives, Steriogram, Foo Fighters with Jack Black, Travis and Colombian pop singer Shakira. The band's unstated tribute to Bon Scott, it was a worldwide success, and peaked in the U.S. at #37 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart in 1981 and #51 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
The song was ranked #4 by VH1 on their list of the VH1's 40 Greatest Metal Songs . It was also ranked #187 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
"Back in Black" was certified as an RIAA Platinum Ringtone (a million downloads).
Back in Black is the fifth episode of Power Rangers: Dino Thunder in which Tommy Oliver gets new powers. The title is considered by some to be a reference to the AC/DC song of the same name, seeing as the AC/DC song and this episode mark the comeback of a legendary rock band and ranger, respectively.
