We are loving the music choices in figure skating and ice dancing this year, from "Rapper's Delight [1]" to Disturbed's cover of "The Sound of Silence [2]." But 19-year-old Ivett Tóth, representing Hungary, brought the rock — the hard rock! She skated to AC/DC, and metalheads around the world are nodding their heads so hard that they are, in fact, banging their heads to her routine. Here she is skating her routine in European Championships earlier this year.
Of course, rockers took to Twitter to share their feelings.
In praise of hard rock on ice

This Hungarian young lady is skating to ACDC. Just give her the gold medal already.

A bit of heavy-metal snark

Some fighting words
There is a goth Hungarian skating to @acdc [14] in faux leather pants and Tara and Johnny are ripping her apart and I am about to get on a plane to Korea to have her back in a rumble. #Olympics [15]

When you catch the NBC commentators diss ACDC and a whole routine because they cant stand the music... for shame #WinterOlympics2018 [17]

AC/DC for #figureskating [19] is bomb. Screw you commentators for knocking it. Just because you don't like some good ol' rock, doesn't mean it was a bad performance. #acdc [20] #awesomemusic [21] #olmypics [22] #olympics2018 [23] #womensshortprogram [24] #rockitgirl [25] #bedifferent [26]
