WOS to AC/DC.  Important in the band's history, I know, but I've heard the riff sampled so many times by uncreative techno/electro dance DJs that it's just noise.  Besides, Brian Johnson's voice is nails-to-the-chalkboard for me.

Shut up!!! (Saying that in a friendly way!) AC/DC totally works for me. I guess one's misery is another's pleasure.

One man's nails-to-the-chalkboard is another man's balls-to-the-wall.

BOS3 Pretenders, but this is not one of Dave's more creative '81 excursions.

My problems with AC/DC has always been the nails-to-the-chalboard vocals, Brian Johnson or the original guy.

I think 9 to 5 would have been a great follow-up to Back in Black, with the intro "and now for something different..."

BOS to Dolly.  Nice production gimmick, using a typewriter for percussion.
