  • Ok, we all in here know who these guys are, I don't think we need to state how great Dio was, it's self explanatory.. But I don't think this line-up is for Rainbow songs, Doug is not a stratocaster player, and it's obvious in this video..

  • \m/ \m/ ..the way he hits "sleep with the devil & then u must PAAAAAAAYY" in the 2nd verse \m/ \m/

    the unmitigated BEST voice in hard rock EVER!!!

  • Intro sounds SO weak! Get some real Minimoogs or learn to program....

  • Intro = EPIC!!!!!!!

  • 6 people will sleep with the devil and THEN THEY MUST PAY!

  • I believed there was no God...... .until i heard DIO

  • @professorfontana

    I believed god existed until i heard Ronnie James Dio died.......

  • Unbelievable that such a great hardrock singer died that young. I still miss him

  • Rest In Peace my Friend ... You WIll Be Remembered for Ages ....

  • I really want to cry. Just cant believe it. But thanks to him I feel theres life on earth. What a great artist and person. R.I.P Ronnie.

  • None of this would have been possible without the Master! Blackmore wrote this music, arranged it and let Dio sing it. Ronnie was one of my favorite singers, God Bless him, but don't for a minute forget who's talent put his song out there for everybody to play it. RITCHIE BLACKMORE!

  • @repetitivemotion

    Tony Carey wrote the important intro ND the midsection,Blackmore bought him out of the song credits so master Blackmore should not have all the cred for this amazing song.

    Ronnie+Tony+Blackmore :)

  • This guy literally rocked 'till the day he died, and never lost his voice even in his late sixties. Fucking amazing.

  • Μονο εναν χαρακτηρισμο μπορει να αποδωσει κανεις σε αυτον τον καλλιτεχνη... ΘΕΟΣ και τελος....! Rock In Peace Our God... Grecce loves Dio...

  • Hail to the KING OF POWER METAL!!!!!! LONG LIVE THE KING!!!! R.I.P.

  • R.I.P mate, greatest vocalist on this earth ever

  • dio is great on his own however when he was in sabbath it just wasnt the same without ozzy

  • R.I.P COZY AND DIO.

  • I watch this every time somebody reposts this. The guy playing keyboard acts like such a bad ass hitting those keys in the beginning. :D Still great though!

  • Great song and the Grand singer!!

    But dont forget mr.Blackmore who`s composed this song!!

  • use the normal strat,please!!!!!!!!!

  • You were the best, Ronnie! R.I.P.

  • @Brokephi316 when the fuck DOESN'T he work that bass?...man is a beast!...Ronnie had an ace lineup here...

  • @psychlyst He sure as hell did, my man!!!

  • the devil is me...

  • the solo is better than yngwie version

  • @deth453 I agree, this one is way better.

  • Unbelievable! In his 60's while doing this great song and showing the world what it's like to be a Metal God. Thank You Dio! Long live the metal God!

  • Epic keyboard solo reed organ sound effect :D

  • So many times in my life when things aren't going so well there is always one thing to fall back on, shut out the world and listen to music and when the music is this good , nothing else matters. God bless Ronnie James Dio - RIP

  • DIO FOI GRANDE MUSICO.

    DEUS AMA VC.*****

  • when was this recorded? Was it during his illness because he does look pretty unwell to me. He is still singing brilliantly though.

  • @800764

    It was recorded exactly on October 22nd 2005.

    This was way before he got sick.

    Remember though, in this video he is 63 years old.

  • @800764 / Just much older than all the footage of him in the 70's and 80's. Me personally I think his appearance didn.t change much and his voice never wavered! When he first joined Rainbow he was 34 and he was 38 with Sabbath so success came at a much later time for Ronnie. Sometime it takes all long time for people realize a genius when we see him!

  • METAL GOD!  LONG LIVE RONNIE JAMES DIO!!!

  • i absolutely adore this shit

  • Cozy and Ronnie are Rocking HEAVEN...

  • sleep with the devil and then you must pay........RIP ronnie.....only gods die...legends live forever!!

  • a los 3 que no les gusto se la comen

  • One of the best songs ever written. Probably THE best! The Blackmore/Dio partnership was greater than Lennon/McCartney. I'm sure this is what heaven sounds like.

  • @PaulKISSStanley really best song from rainbow

  • RJD definitely lived it up, that is for sure!

  • Sounds better with Bob Daisley...

  • very sexy version of this amazing song

  • Dio... Kings never die! Stay Heavy Always.... we thank's so much!! RIP

  • GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ...generations will remember this voice!

  • Juta and Ibos alltime fav.

  • The keyboardplayer sucks but DIO rules!

  • @Sneixx dude come on respect him he lost a freind

  • Greatest vocalist rock has ever known. RIP Ronnie, may you see the gates of Babylon

  • No disrespect to Yngwie, but I love this version a hell of a lot better than his. Rudy is workin' the fuck outta that bass, he makes me wanna open them Gates to Babylon! Ronnie, love you, man! R.I.P.

  • Did U know: He was offered a scholarship to the Juilliard School of Music but did not pursue it due to his interest in rock music. He started his career in music in 1957. Attended University at Buffalo majoring in Pharmacy but did not graduate coz he WANTED TO ROCK & ROLL. We thank him for that decision!

  • @mustangTNT why do you think that is ?

  • @mustangTNT , thank god Dio did not become a chemist

  • @artery8077 if he did, his chemicals would have rocked the earth XD

  • @mustangTNT Yeah Dio rules!!

  • Did U know: Westboro Baptist Church held a rally AT HIS MEMORIAL SERVICE, denouncing Dio as worshiping Satan. Wendy Dio urged those attending the funeral to ignore the protest, saying: "Ronnie hates prejudice and violence. We need to turn the other cheek on these people that only know how to hate someone they didn't know. We only know how to love someone we know!" His famous "horns" sign was only something his Italian grandmother used to do as a sign to WARD OFF SATAN - according to Ronnie.

  • @TENGKUOAIDIL: Ronnie passed away May 16, 2010.

  • RIP Mr Dio - Long Live Rock - You \re a legend - May the angels cradle u in their arms

  • @qu1nnc YES long live rock n roll

  • Ronnie will always be on tour.. In our Hearts...

    For others we might mourn

    for Dio WE ROCK

  • Amazing. I just watched the Rainbow version of this same song videotaped 30 years ago. Dio's voice hasn't faded a bit in three decades. RIP RJD

  • R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio

  • It is amazing that Dio could still sing with such passion, dynamics and range in his sixties, unlike the majority of rock singers his age - or even two decades younger than him..Ronnie you were one of a kind, and you will be sorely missed. A big thanks from all of us who grew up with your music.

  • Ah, raw and sweaty heavy metal.

    That the death of Ronny James Dio be the trigger that let me learn of his music is a sad given.

    Let us believe that he lives on trough his music. That might make the loss bearable.

    Rock in Paradise Ronnie James, Rock in Paradise!
