Creators of the show have been hoping to work the song "Thunderstuck" by legendary rock band AC/DC into an episode over the course of its four seasons, but the price is too steep. In a interview with Entertainment Weekly, co-creator Jon Hurwitz revealed that he and the show's other writers had "Thunderstuck" in mind for a montage in a Season 4 scene in which Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) puts Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) through some grueling Eagle Fang training. And it wasn't the first time they wanted to feature the iconic 1990 tune. "We had 'Thunderstruck' written into the script," explained Hurwitz. "We've written 'Thunderstruck' into the script several times over the years, and we've never been able to afford it in that moment or to make that choice [to spend the money on it] right now." Without the AC/DC track, the creators had to turn to an alternate tune, and music supervisor Michelle Johnson ended up landing "Breakin' Outta Hell" by Australian rockers Airbourne, who've garnered many comparisons to AC/DC over the years. AC/DC aren't the only band whose price is currently too high for Cobra Kai. "A lot of times we write things into the script, but sometimes we'll write something into the script that we can't afford," added Hurwitz. "I mean, our fantasy is having the kind of music budget that would allow for us to have nonstop AC/DC and Bon Jovi and Guns N' Roses."
