Jack Black Dedicates Epic “Long Way To The Top” Reunion To AC/Dc’s Bon Scott

School of Rock Reunion

From the 2003 film School of Rock, actor, musician Jack Black commemorates one of the greatest voices and talents in rock and roll history, the great Bon Scott. Performing AC/DC‘s Bon Scott’s signature “Long Way To The Top” in the ending credits, Jack Black brings his newly found School of Rock to cover the epic rock ballad and now, luckily for us, 10 years later they are back to do it again.

Interesting Quote :”It’s A Long Way To The Top” really summed us up as a band, it was the audience that really allowed us to even get near a studio.” – Angus Young

Dressed to the nines and grown up, the cast assembles on stage around musical legend Jack to perform the Bon Scott song once again. Featuring a “face melting” solo by Joey, the shy, hidden guitar talent of the movie with a disapproving father, it really will take you back in time to when you first watched the movie and experienced Joey’s first and highly surprising moment in the spotlight.

As Jack goes through the talents one by one, providing them with a moment of thrill and spotlight after 10 years, and then performing his own epic solo of “Step Off” from the movie, the School of Rock seriously brings the heat with epic vocal solos, piano and drums- pretty much everything you have been missing for at least 10 years.

+ Long Way To The Top Lyrics +

Ridin’ down the highway
Goin’ to a show
Stop in all the byways
Playin’ rock ‘n’ roll
Gettin’ robbed
Gettin’ stoned
Gettin’ beat up
Broken boned
Gettin’ had
Gettin’ took
I tell you folks
It’s harder than it looks

It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n’ roll
It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n’ roll
If you think it’s easy doin’ one night stands
Try playin’ in a rock roll band
It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n’ roll

Hotel motel
Make you want to cry
Lady do the hard sell
Know the reason why
Gettin’ old
Gettin’ grey
Gettin’ ripped off
Under-paid
Gettin’ sold
Second hand
That’s how it goes
Playin’ in a band

It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n’ roll
It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n’ roll
If you want to be a star of stage and screen
Look out it’s rough and mean

It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n’ roll
It’s a long way to the top if you want to rock ‘n’ roll
But it’s a long way
It’s a long way, (you should’ve told me)
It’s a long way, such a long way
