This brought back so many memories from when I was a little kid. My older cousins listened to it on repeat and it was always on the radio. It's nice to understand it better, it's relatable. And very nostalgic for me ☺ (edit: by relatable I mean that my friends and I listened to rock, punk etc. and played video games, including some violent ones. We were accused of all sorts of stuff, like being satanists or witches or violent. We were none of those things)
Halfway through the interview the dude Skyping into the interview “hmmm well I’m useless to this conversation so let me put my hand to my chin so people think I’m in deep thought”
The only thing AC/DC is guilty of is making every single song sound the same. Marking them as evil is straight up laughable to me, even in the 70s and 80s.
Happened right in my backyard and I had no idea!! From Melville here and parents were growing up around then here during that, they would’ve been around 10 so pretty wild
"He was arrested wearing an AC/DC shirt". The band's name AC/DC has nothing to do with satan at all, the Young brothers sister actually saw AC/DC on her sewing machine & thought it would be a great band name. Also down here in their home country, the island continent known as the Great Southern Land (yes the Young boys moved to Straya as ten pound poms as kids from Scotland) we don't actually call them AC/DC we Aussie's call them ACCA DACCA. We nickname everything & we shorten names/words which sometimes includes lengthening the names/words to actually shorten the names/words.
Yes, AC/DC and rock in general has nothing to do with Satan, but they thought because Rickey kasso liked rock music that the music made him start worshipping Satan and thought that's why he killed someone in the name of Satan coz the rock music
I remember playing DOOM on the PC when news of the Columbine shooting broke. Within minutes my mom was telling me I had to delete all my games. Heh I made this comment before they started even talking about doom and columbine
10 years ---- in 10 years you'll be able to pick out a BPM, voices, style, generate vocals, choose effects and details . . . and BOOM - perfect mainstream music. You'll be able to do it on a phone.
He never really explained ‘dirtbag’, though. From a European POV, douchebag has been heard on so many American movies, so I thought dirtbag was a way of transitioning that slang term for us. Bin bag would be a UK term, essentially, but that has no weight (pardon the pun) but trash bag hasn’t either. A dirt bag must be something IRL that I’m not aware of, but know it’s still a low life.
I think the literal definition in 2024 is a someone who is trashy or only cares about themselves. I think what he is refering to in the song is the opinions of all the up tight people who viewed him in such a negative light for liking the music/things he liked, so by saying the word himself he is taking the power back from the uptight assholes from previous days. A form of mockery in a way, I think.
I just discovered it like a few years ago, i can't believe i've never heard it in my childhood. I think American music was more "radio friendly" and tried to avoid edgy topics, especially the lyrics to the song.
It was definitely in rotation in the San Francisco Bay Area. I'd be curious to know if the people who aren't familiar with the song are not Gen X, not older Millenials, or don't listen to this type of music. 🤷🏾♀️
Three people blankly staring at another person babble and stammer and saying absolutely nothing. Great content. You posted a much longer piece about the meaning of this song a year ago. Why a short meaningless dull post now?
@@lg8587 I don’t remember why I wrote this comment…..but it is true. My husband was putting off writing a paper for his ALC class in the army. I told him he just needs to sit down and just get it done and over with; also that I could get a persuasive paper done in an hour….so I did. It’s been a month…I’m sure any comments I’ve made on any video probably doesn’t make sense
Wait, what?!?! WTF are you even talking about? You´re making just as much sense as this pointless video, congratulation. Where have you ever seen a name tag that said "he/she/it Billy B." or whatever?! And 3 people had just their instagram names shown! And what the hell is a HOMOPHONE?! Jesus.... 🤦♂😆
Watch "The Story Of 'Teenage Dirtbag'" ua-cam.com/video/2mTq7BSLe74/v-deo.html
This is a perfect example of 4 dudes that don't need a podcast
Savage but accurate
Idk what you mean, I thought it was good insight to the music
opened for wheatus a couple years ago. seriously the nicest dudes i've ever met.
I too can fall asleep with my eyes open like the guy on the right
Bout time we got into the most important questions of this generation.

its about time pal
Ricky was also a huge druggie and a drug dealer
Had the pleasure of meeting Brendan after a show one night. One of the nicest and most down to earth guy ever.

Ac/dc is electrical lingo for Alternating current/Direct current, just sayin’
@@novaakx2397ever read AC/DC lyrics? Like highway to hell?
Does his pentagram shirt have anything to do with satan?
@@novaakx2397yes acdc has a lot to do with satanism.
Who is on the right screen, and why?
They look like a sign language interpreter who can only sign "my chin" & hold a microphone?

It’s sorta sad though, don’t you think? We can listen to whatever we want? Where’s the true creativity? I don’t know how I feel to be honest

Yea maybe back then dirtbag was used. I’m sure it’s still used. But douchbag is very common in the states lol
Dirtbag to me in that time meant someone who was just scruffy and low down in the pecking order

A dirt bag is like calling someone a POS
Hard hitting journalism right here
Could have been about two minutes shorter if the word “like” had been edited out.
could all of us have our two seconds of life back if you hadn't posted this bullshit?
yea it dragged
Legendary 👌 this is still my party song.
This song was massive in the UK, but I've met lots of Americans who don't know it. Were they just living under a rock?
I was in small town Kentucky, and I heard it all the time so I don't know what the excuse would be
I just discovered it like a few years ago, i can't believe i've never heard it in my childhood. I think American music was more "radio friendly" and tried to avoid edgy topics, especially the lyrics to the song.
It was huge here in South Africa too
@@YeetBomb in chicago, il it was never very big

The real questions of the universe🤔
Wearing a Acca-Dacca shirt! Blasphemy right there! BBB is so cute tho, and teenage dirtbag is a legendary song💯🫶🏻
I had this on this morning on my motorbike rides
I'm glad this song exists
his shirt made me lose all respect
Pls stfu literally no one cares

I like how one person has a name and the others have a Instagram handle
For saying 'like' over and over, if for nothing else, you subliterates at VICE deserve your current bankruptcy.
I love Huey Lewis and sorry for spelling his name wrong
This video is a re upload
They were all real awkward besides brendan.
Ironic that he’s wearing a t shirt displaying a satanic symbol during this interview 🫨🤦🏻
What bands tshirt is he wearing in this?
A Marilyn Manson or White Zombie shirt possibly
Well, the down facing pentagram is definitely a symbol used in Satanism, sooo.... 😬
I think himself since it says BBB on it
looks like a satanic pentagram to me which is concerning due to the start of the video...
Nice pentagram t shirt!
Thank you ray.
Satin lives: you had to be there at the time.
Smh he really wearing a satanic shirt bruh
The real topics !!!!
@JesusIsGod-ih9cg you know not of what you speak, you sound like a robot, stand down. T.U.L.I.P.
what the heck was this?? so the song is about satan????
It’s ironic that they’re talking about a devil worshiping killer and he’s wearing a pentagram on his shirt
What’s up with Brendan Browns T-shirt
Into Kabbalah probably..
Vice told him to wear it. They hope their ideology will replace organized religion.
Yep! The color, the graphic on the shirt, the color of the graphic of the shirt. Well that screams,.... 🤯🤯
@@colab_stdio What does it scream? E.M.P merchandise?! Yeah, i agree. 😆
thats not rivers
Thanks for the details on one of the worst songs that I've heard in my entire life.
VICE got no news, no content.
I love the shirt he is wherein! Great point on Satanism
ok
This is why you’re going bankrupt
This is boring as hell

It's fine to produce videos like this every once in a while, but you really need to focus on racial inequality and systemic racism in America.
😑
Maybe focus on what we can do to fix the systemic racism.
Is this sarcasm?
why didn't you put pronouns next to their names? homophones
