Easy answer Evil No 2 from The Road To Hell Part II album.

Upon a summer wind there's a certain melody
Takes me back to the place that I know

Obviously , I like some songs a lot more than others , but the only one I really skip EVERY time is the duet with Elton John "If You Were Me"

Well, good issue to talk about! ;)

As for me, I always skip I Don't Care Anymore from Dancing with Stragers (so good it's not on LP release!) and all versions of All Night Long from the Blue Guitars (too boring and simple).

What about the songs mentioned above, I can't criticise these pieces and even love them. But so to say, there was a time when I just could not stand The Road to Hell - so frequently it was rotating on every radio station...

May your shadow never grow less,

Hi Everyone,
A great subject this one....for me it's There's No One Looking (Blue Guitars 7) and Coming Of The Ropes from Road To Hell 2.
Tina :) :)
Pick up the pieces and start again.

Interesting topic, it's good that we are honest enough to say what we dont like as well!
For me it would have to be all of RHT2 apart from Marvin and driving in my car. I'm happy to say I haven't got a copy of the duet with Elton John; Elton John for heavens sake, the record company must have insisted on that one...
Regards,
Kev.

You have no idea :D :D hehehe... I saw a couple of DVDs of them so I knew what it would be like but they exceeded all expectations :)
We stood some 8-9 meters from stage and only 3 from the edge of the runway in the middle where Brian Johnson and Angus Young walked almost all the time :) :)
The show was GREAT with a lot of pyrotechnics and fantastic sound... my ears were ringing in the next two days :D
Anyway, I don't wanna go off-topic so what I can say is they are my all-time favourite band and they didn't disappoint me not a bit and I'm really hoping I'll have the chance to see them again because that was a lifetime experience!!

Chris :)

I have a very small chance to get to see this band this year but I think I will pass especially if it is that noisy :lol: :lol:

Hi,

back to the original topic :D
There are some songs (at least one on every album) that I don't like that much - but these three songs are absolutely skippable: MY LUCKY DAY (from On the beach), 90's BLUES (from God's great banana skin), E (from The road to hell, Part 2).

All the best 8)

This is a difficult one. I cant think of a song I do skip to be honest.
