AC/DC may never have a truly bad week on the Billboard charts again, reports Forbes Senior Contributor, Hugh McIntyre. As Americans continue to show, week after week, that they love the hard rock group’s biggest hits, the band regularly appears on half a dozen tallies or more across the United States.

Thanks to continued consumption of both albums and singles — one blockbuster smash in particular — this frame is especially exciting for the legendary outfit. “Thunderstruck” remains not just a classic cut, but a bestselling one.

The tune rises from the runner-up space to the summit on the “Hard Rock Digital Song Sales” chart. AC/DC knocks Falling In Reverse and Marilyn Manson from the throne, as their collaboration “God Is a Weapon Too” dips from #1 to third place in its third stint on the roster.

“Thunderstruck” is no stranger to leading the charge on the “Hard Rock Digital Song Sales” tally. This week marks its sixtieth frame in the top spot — an incredible accumulation, though still less than 10% of the total 654 weeks it has now spent on this genre-specific list.
