The song is not about actual T.N.T. It's used to describe the singers personality and feelings.
Did acdc write their own songs?
Bon Scott (original singer) wrote their original stuff. Then he died and i don't know who writes their songs now. I would assume it is one of the band members.
The real spark in AC/DC's popularity was with the release of the 1980 album, Back in Black. They were becoming increasingly well known before that, but back in black really boosted they're popularity.
How many number one hits has acdc had?
Two. Even though AC/DC has sold over 200 million copies of combination albums and cd's worldwide and Back in Black has sold over 64 million copies by itself and is one of the top selling albums of all time, they have had only two #1 hits in the United States and they are not any of their most well known older tunes. "Big Gun" recorded for the movie The Last Hero reached #1 on the American charts in 1991 and was their first #1 hit in America. "Stiff Upper Lip" was #1 on the American Charts when released in 2000 for over four weeks. Several of the hits off of "Back in Black" in 1980, You Shook Me All Night Long, Back in Black, and Hell's Bells, were in the top 20 but never reached #1 on the charts in the United States, which I find to be an odd rock'n'roll fact. It remains to be seen if "Rock'n'Roll Train" becomes AC/DC's third #1 hit on the America Charts.

AnswerGreen Day became a band in the mid' 80's and it was started by Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt (not dimt)
AnswerSince the pop punk explosion heralded by super-band Nirvana, few bands have had the success and influence that Green Day have had.
With the 1994 major label release of their album Dookie, Green Day has brought the late 1970s pop-punk sound to a new generation of teens. Their music is frenetic with the three cord energy and style of post-punk pop and they have opened the door for countless other pop-punk, ska-rock and skater metal bands who have followed their lead.
Green Day hails from the San Francisco Bay Area - Berkeley to be exact - home of a thriving post-punk underground subculture. Billie Joe Armstrong (guitar, vocals) and longtime friend Mike Dirnt (orig. Mike Pritchard) began playing music together at the age of 14 and formed the band Sweet Children. In 1989 the duo, renamed Green Day, added drummer John Kiffmeyer and independently released their own EP, 1,000 Hours.
The California hardcore punk scene embraced the EP and the band soon signed with local indie label Lookout. Green Day's first full-length album, 39/Smooth, was released later that year. Some time after this release the band replaced Kiffmeyer with their current drummer, Tre Cool (orig. Frank Edward Wright III). The band moved into the '90s, amassing more fans as time rolled on. Their big break came with the release of their second album, Kerplunk, which attracted major label attention. This led to a record contract with Reprise. In the spring of 1994, Green Day released its major label debut, Dookie, which drew the attention and support of MTV. The heavy rotation of the video for the song "Longview" catapulted the band into the alternative mainstream.
Their ascent continued into the summer of '94, as the single "Basket Case" spent five weeks at the top of the modern rock charts. During Woodstock '94 the band stole
