Classic Rock Magazine takes you back in time for a look at how AC/DC classic Thunderstruck could have been performed by a pair of cellists in the 17th century. And the video below even suggests how audiences of the era might have reacted.

It’s the brainchild of 2CELLOS – Luka Sulic and Stjepan Huaser – and it’s already gone viral, notching up over 2,500,000 views in less than a week.

And the best bit is, like any great piece of music, Thunderstruck stands the translation into a completely different style without losing any of its energy and intensity.

If AC/DC really are thinking about recording a new album starting in May, perhaps it’s time to call in a couple of guests.
