The song is one of AC/DC's biggest hits, breaking the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 (becoming the band's first top-40 hit on the Hot 100 since "Back in Black" in 1981), the UK Singles Chart, and the Australian ARIA Singles Chart. It is the band's highest-charting single to date in the United States, peaking at number 23. During their subsequent world tour, thousands of "Angus Bucks" were dropped on the audience during the song. A music video of the song, directed by David Mallet, was also released, featuring a live performance during the tour. Despite its popularity, it has not been performed in concert by the band since the tour.
