"Danger" is a single by Australian rock band AC/DC, from the album Fly on the Wall released in 1985. A stripped down blues shuffle, it was written by Brian Johnson, Angus Young, and Malcolm Young.
Cash Box said that the song "is a gritty and blues inflected effort" with "growling vocals and tale of drunken fun."[1] Billboard said that the "monarchs of metal growl and bluster at a lumbering pace."[2]
In most territories, the single's B-side was "Back in Business", but in Australia and New Zealand, "Hell or High Water" was featured.
