    I think I can finally rank the songs on Power Up after 5+ listens:
    1. Through The Mists Of Time
    2. Realize
    3. Demon Fire
    4. Money Shot
    5. Systems Down
    6. Shot In The Dark
    7. Witches Spell
    8. Wild Reputation
    9. Kick You When You're Down
    10. No Man's Land
    11. Code Red
    12. Rejection

     

    First nine on that list are excellent, last three are good. I might've felt different about Code Red if it was placed different on the album, I just really don't like how similar it is to Black Ice and Emission Control as a closing track. 

     

    If they are eventually able to tour in support of Power Up, which songs does everyone think are most likely to make the cut and be played live?

    I totally agree with 1 and 2 on your list as the best two tracks, they'd have to be there, I'll have to mull over the rest in terms of ranking... Money Shot is up at the top as well. I see Rejection is at the bottom of the list, I really like that, personally, again... Johnno's vocals are ridiculous and a real mean, dirty groove. Love it.

    I don't think so. I mean, he just confirmed that he has lots of respect for Axl helping out. He was always a class act and has no oversized ego.

    "He jumped into a tough, tough vocalist gig. You've got to be on top of your game for that. There's not many resting places.

    "You've really got to go in full chop, all of the time. And for him to do that at such short notice was pretty fantastic. I've got a lot of respect for what he did, you know. A lot of respect."

    Axl did an unbelievable job, no question, I would have loved to see that continue but this is outstanding from Brian.

    Everyone thought that was it and he was finished, probably even Brian himself, deep down he'll have been hurting seeing Axl up there in his place, absolutely killing it night after night.

    This really is a quite remarkable return from Brian. Whether he can return to touring or not, I'm just celebrating him overcoming the odds in this fashion.

    Through The Mists Of Time - now that's one hell of a great song, so much heart, so warm and sentimental in a good way, goes straight to the soul. I didn't ecpect them to come up with a song this good. Well done AC/DC, very well done.

    My favourite track on the album at the moment and something genuinely a bit different for the 'DC.

    Really impressed by how good it is.

    If contracted you have 99.6% chance of survival... deadly indeed...

    Average age of death from Covid in the UK is 82... Eighty Fucking Two!

    Around the same as the life expectancy of a male.

    I'm absolutely beside myself with fear and we should obviously vaccinate every healthy man, woman and child.

    Absolute load of shit.

    It is a fact that we are all members of communities, though. So you cant call that nonsense.

    You are advocating putting restrictions on men and women who have committed no crime, done no harm to their fellow men and women, simply because they don't feel the need to be vaccinated against a virus that has a high percentage to not trouble them in the slightest.

    Vaccination must always be voluntary and not by coercion.

    That's rather nonsensical. I have an immune system as does everyone else in the community. If others are suitably afraid of a virus that they wish to be vaccinated, that's absolutely fine, good luck to them... but those that choose not to should not have restrictions put on them or be punished in any way for not doing so. Trying to force compulsory vaccination through things such as this would amount to fascism.

    But those objecting are in fact imposing their individualistic desire to do what they want with out regards to the many.

    What are we if not all individuals with our personal freedom, choice and desires though? You take that away by imposing fascistic regulations like the threat of perfectly law abiding citizens not being allowed to go to a public event unless they acquiesce to you injecting them with whatever and you're on a very slippery slope indeed.

    Me taking that particular stance isn't going to affect anyone but me as I would simply choose not to go rather than bow to that kind of bullshit.

    It does, however, boil my piss to think that some weak-willed twat would even consider allowing themselves to be harpooned against their better judgement simply because they are itching to see fucking Michael Bolton or some other bollocks.
