Angus and Malcolm Young would be spinning in their graves.
Celine Dion has no business making music. I think she should be formally banned from the music industry and never allowed near a microphone of any kind again.
If I were Angus or Malcolm Young, I would be using the, no doubt, substantial fortune created from years of epic rock stardom to creat a crack team of AC/DC special forces, who would be ever poised to strike whenever some talentless moron decides to butcher my music. Not for my ego, but for the sanctity of rock history. Consider the future generations, who will hear, by some odd chance, this version of such a classic rock song, and believe that this is the way rock should be... That's just wrong on so many levels.
I don't blame Celine alone; I blame her record label for thinking this crap-ass cover might be a good idea, I blame AC/DCs Label for selling the rights to one of rocks greatest songs, especially to friggin Celine Dion, I blame AC/DC fans world wide for not protesting this abomination immediately once the very idea was made public in any way... and finally, I blame Celine Dions fans for not rushing the stage and destroying the band the minute the first few cords were strummed out, 'cause you know; they knew the tune, and they should have gone into a bloodthirsty berzerk charge the instant she stepped on stage to defile that music. Not out of hatred of Celine, otherwise why would they be at her concert, unless they're AC/DC fans who got wind of her plans, they should have rushed the stage just to keep her in line and to protect the purity of rock... just out of respect.
All I'm saying is; Celine Dion destroyed that song. I didn't watch the whole thing, as it enraged me too much, but the time I spent watching it was time I could have used to do something better with my life, (like reading more articles in Radio Chatter) and although I've now used 10 times as much time writing this diatribe, I take solace in the fact that maybe some one out there, reading this, hates her as much as I do and will find a way to put an end to her musical career.
