"Who Made Who" is a song by the Australian Hard Rock band AC/DC. This song, D.T., and Chase the Ace are the only new songs on Who Made Who, because the album is not only a soundtrack to Stephen King's Maximum Overdrive, but a compilation CD.
In the video to this song, directed by David Mallet[1], fans and radio contest winners were dressed like Angus Young, and carried red cardboard guitars similar to Angus's. The video's plot features scientists replicating Angus by means of science fiction technology; the lookalikes are shown en masse, marching in place in time to the song and raising their heads to chant the title phrase along with the chorus. A photo of Angus standing amid a group of his counterparts can be found inside the 2003 Digipak release of Who Made Who.
The song is unusual for an AC/DC song, as it begins with a bass guitar riff, which was a popular choice in the Bon Scott era, especially on the High Voltage and T.N.T. albums, but had become less common after Brian Johnson became lead singer.
