  • No one can play dio's vocals.

  • black sabbath it's returning this summer like a metal phoenix with Ozzy on the lead.

  • very much like maiden \M/

  • Black sabbath is nothing with out dio or ozzy

  • B L A C K S A B B A T H RIP RONNIE JAMES DIO AND TONY MARTIN FOREVER !!!!!

  • a formação original com ozzy, tony iommi, bill ward e geezer butler é a melhor de todas

  • Tony Martin is amazing. Dio had his own band and thing going on, and Ozzy is sad clown, so I must say Martin is my favorite black sabbath vocalist

  • Who's the Drummer, Cozy Powell?

  • Never heard of him either @TheDark.. I stop'd listen to Black Sabbath even before Dio.

    He's got a great powerful voice though, i am surprised. Wonder where they dug him out ;D

  • this is all around a beautiful performance.

  • Only Tony Martin could have done the performance of "Headless Cross". Yes Dio was awesome but Tony Martin IS Awesome too!

  • Wow! I wish Tony Martin could get back with Black Sabbath! This sounds awesome!

  • @BBINGHAM032352 Yeah. They should reform and tour under the name of Headless Cross this time... But Cozy is absent and it wouldn't be the same.

  • Ez a zene!

  • Oh my god, those of you blaming this guy for singing in Sabbath can suck a big horsecock. You'll never be able to sing in a fucking band that half as good as Sabbath. Tony Martin was underrated.

  • @AdammTheDude

    I am ashamed to say I never heard of this guy til now...

    He is amazing !! And I agree, underrated... I actually didn't expect his performance to be so good, but his vocals really came through.

  • Nothing is more annoying than a Dio fan. They can't appreciate anything except for Dio. Even if Dio is with the band, no one comments about Tony's awesome riffs, or Geezer's killer bass lines. No one cares about anything except for Dio. Then, even when another singer gives an awesome performance, everyone compares him to Dio. Yes, he was an amazing singer, but try listening to the other stuff for once!

  • Comment removed

  • Don't try to mimic Dio, Toy Martin, You never will do Dio as good as him itself

  • dio couldnt wipe ozzys ass

  • yea what is with everyone comparing every vocalist if you were asked to be in a band would you want your own style or would you want to follow whoever was before you i'd want my own this guy is a great vocalist and everyone can not be DIO (RIP)...

  • omg he cant manage to take this song after Dio....

  • Sure, Tony Martin doesn't match Dio - no-one could - but he does a fucking good job with this track. Kudos to him.

  • this belongs to dio

  • Tony Martin was the best vocalist for Sabbath. Listen to Headless Cross, Eternal Idol, born to lose, kill in the spirit world.

  • @MegaFisherman94 This sounds like bad karaoke. Tony Martin could never touch Dio's natural vocal talent

  • ray gillen did much better, singing this song...

  • Where is Ronnie?! I was shocked when I heared this. He tries to immitate Dio but... no man can ever sing this song.

  • Need reunion with him

  • Fortunately Dio is dead. Now he has no chance to see his beautiful song being ruined like this. The worse is some people compare this guy to Dio. Definitely, he left the world in exactly the right time.

  • @Elephteros they each had there own part of black sabbaths magical history, just because he cant sign Dio's songs doesnt mean he is a shit signer

  • nice vocals... even its not dio :P

  • I wouldn't have paid money for this concert.

  • Are you out of your minds??? This is not an example of singing- its butchery at its worse. It made me laugh- it made my cry (mostly) Never heard this guy before- Never want to again. Dio was on another planet from this guy- Get off the fucking stage!!!

  • I don't see why there always has to be this Ozzy vs Dio thing going on. Not only were they both great in their own ways, but Sabbath was a much different band with Ronnie. And still great. They put out more classic stuff with the Oz, but Dio was a better singer technically. So I see no reason to play favorites on the Sabbath front. I'm happy there were both.

  • I would like to hear a studio recording of this song with Martin on vocals.

  • poor example of dios song

  • i like tony martin's voice more but anyways: tony > dio > ozzy

  • I totally agree with vahorologist Sabbath was much darker before Dio. But Dio in Rainbow was superb. Ozzy suited Sabbath style and set the benchmark for the band.

  • I`ve been listening Black Sabbath since I was 16...Now I`m much older. And I must say, that, although, the best line-up was with Ozzy, the next best singer for Sabbath is Tony Martin. Ironically I first heard Headless Cross with Martin. Dio is good enough, but not too good for Sabbath. The voice is too high-pitched for Sabbath. Tony Martin was a real asset for Sabbath, and I think, that was strictly a commercial consideration that led to replacing Martin with Dio. Now can they return him???

  • @valhorologist well, one thing must be said. if there wasnt dio in black sabbath, there woudn't be a lot of good sabbath songs, including children of the sea, although he coudnt sing them the best way, he was still a great musician and songwriter

  • This is very close to dio. TONY MARTIN ROCKS!!!

  • @Iron666666maiden hah. id rather hear dio sing it. peace

  • @MrSchmuchface i agree, but you gotta say this man does it very good. DIO ROCKS!

  • This is Tony Martin, not Ronnie James Dio....

  • i love this intro riff one of the best

  • Tony Martin is good,he was the best since Dio.

  • \m/  \m/

  • i didn't like this guy

  • Tony Martin sounds great

  • 2:28 the spirit of dio inspires tony :):)

  • Idiots.... He´s not trying to be Dio.... His tone is not the same and even in some parts of the vocal melody he changes the notes!

    Great vocalist !!! Tony Martin rules!!!

  • DIO was the MAN....OZZY was the BEAST!!!!

  • who is that?

  • WTF? Where is Butler? This cannot be Sabbath...

  • haha! This is not Dio is a copy i think hes name is Tony Martin

  • this particular Black Sabbath line-up kicks ass, nuff said

  • this guy sucks hes not DIO or OZZY who the fuck is he ? he sucks hes not a pimple on dio or OZZYes ass

  • this guy sucks hes not DIO or OZZY who the fuck is he ?

  • Cozy Powel was great

  • dio's funral was proteted by westboro baptis chuch metal heads can't losse a brethern and have some sollice for one fucking day i mean god damn it metalheads are still being prosucited metal brethern untite we have to save the world from the ingorance and bigotry that is mainstem in america and the same people say that there being prosucited so fucking stupid promote this if they want procucited well give them that unite and go on the offincive its what dio would want spreed the word

  • @MacMan5555 They protested DIO's funeral? DIO??? Those motherfuckers. I wonder how they'd feel if thousands of pissed off metalheads showed up on their little compound blasting the music of RJD whilst they tried to listen to that crazy old bastard Fred spew more of his hateful bullshit...

    Fuck Westboro Baptist Church. Fuck them, and anyone who shares their views.... Oh how foolish of me, only the 30 or so people who attend that Church believe any of Fred's bullshit for a second. Dirtbag fucks

  • @warriorofwrestling yea the world is full of fucking idiots.God gave us the choice . We dont need some crazy preacher and his flock stalking us.That would never have happened in the uk a funeral is a place where people show respect to loved ones. American authoraties should have arrest them and listened to this song at 2 minutes 30 throw away the key and lock the door

  • if anyone didnt fit in here, it was the bassist.

  • This is Tony Martin singing, not Dio.

  • good try

  • This sucks ... Dio-wannabe !! Long Live Dio !!

  • @Knuse geeze, nobody can be a good singer in sabbath without wanting to be a dio knockoff huh?????

  • Dio may have been the best Black Sabbath vocalist.. But you have to give credit where it is due.. Dio songs are that hard to sing to the same level and Ol Tony here.. No a bad job at all.

    Good on Tony to keep Sabbath alive !

  • Dio Foreverrrrrr!! sempre cantou mais que o Ozzy!!!

  • naum eh o dio eh o tony martin vocalista do eternal idol xD

  • well I have to say my 2 cents worth.This is definetly Dio's song along with Iommi since this was the first one written by them for "Heaven and Hell".This was the new line up for Sabbath after Ozzy was fired.Tony Martin trying to mimmick Ronnie on stage will never match him or his voice.

    R.I.P RJD

  • That is not Dio, it's Tony Martin..

  • dio !

  • Black Sabbath Spawn 2 of my favorites guys ever, Ozzy, and DIO. Dio pwns Ozzy though

  • @usedtobeemo you are a FUCKING MORON ,,you know nothing of these two legends never post again .!

  • @Defcon737 how am I a fucking moron? I have spent most of my life actually researching and listening to these LEGENDS so to speak, so you can't dive into my life and say I don't, because actually, my young padwan, I do.

  • @usedtobeemo dam im sry ..I attacked the wrong person ..this asshole I was after has left the building .

  • @Defcon737 Oh my fucking god, you are a dumbass.

  • @usedtobeemo really punk was that necessary?

  • I worship Dio but Tony is really awesome too , dunno why some people write bad about him here..listen to Nightwing song and amazing Tony's voice in it..you just cant say that he sucks,cause he doesnt!

  • dio :( rest in peace

  • There will never be another RJD but this was Tony Martin at his finest! Let us also remember that Sabbath was still CREATING at this period instead of treading water like the OZZFEST shows! Iommi had a SOLID rhythm section in Powell and Murray.( Listen to the TYR album). Tony also put his spin on the Ozzy tunes but he was closer to Dio sound which works for me. TM was also Sabs LONGEST singer! ( Ozzy was only officially 10 years) R.I.P Cozy Powell And RJD

  • Great song! RIP Ronnie \m/\m/

  • Tony Martin kicks ass they should have kept him in sabbath

  • @junkman4720 Hell Nah

  • Tony is suckin' dicks.....R.I.P .Ronnieee

  • love this guitar solo x

    xxx

  • love this guitar solo x

    

  • for me this singer and Dio were the best of black sabbath. Ozzy was the founder but the following perfected. We know that the three are good but I prefer Tony Martin, Dio.

  • My all time favorite song....When Dio sings it, that is.

  • dio dio dio.....

  • After reading the last 3 pages of posts, i have to say that i agree that only Dio can Truly sing Dio, however, Martin did not do badly on this song. I still give it a thumbs up.

  • @AltairZielite Absolutely! Ronnie Dio's voice was unique but this line up does not suck

  • @dirlewanger42 agree although RONNIE JAMES DIO was (with all respect ozzy deserves) the voice of BLACK SABBATH and RAINBOW............but let's give credit to the other frontmen, they also played their part as well as they could.

  • it takes a huge pair of balls to sing a song written for Dio's voice. Tony's doing pretty well here.

  • Tony Martin butchered "Children of the Sea??? Are you Freaking deaf!!!!! this is Quite possibly the best Sabbath line up other than Ozzy/Tony/Geezer/Bill and/or Ronnie/Tony/Geezer/Bill and /or Vinnie

  • He has an awesome voice!

  • @LATI1979 i agree with you

  • OH YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

  • Tony Martin is an awesome singer, in my opinion...

    Saw him on the Tyr and Headless Cross tours.Brilliant live performer.

  • This is not DIO..not OZZY, this is Tony Martin.

  • Tony Martin - Appears on the Headless Cross album. Overall it's a great album

  • i dont know much about tony martin but this performance is quite good.

  • no that anit dio

  • Is that Dio? Sounds like him. If it is I didn't know he had a beard

  • I dunno, it almost seems wrong for anyone to sing Dio's lyrics, they seem a tad more 'literature' then most. His can only be spoke by Himself.

  • LOVE OZZY,LOVE DIO.R.I.P GREAT KING

  • Nice try No cigar

  • actually it aint never over, we were created to live forever... its just a matter of where we will live forever... and that depends on one decision you make... heaven or hell

  • dio was best sabbath vocalist

  • @rlta04 yes he was best vocal , but for black sabbath music i think that ozzy is better

  • @rlta04  I agree 100% ... and also a great person!!! But he lives on - death is just a pass to another dimension ...

  • @rlta04 Dio was the BEST vocalist!!!

  • @rlta04 Dio was best vocalist in every band that he milited!

  • @rlta04 Gówno prawda.

    Black Sabbath to Ozzy, Tony, Geezer i Bill

  • this singer sucks

  • wow this guy sux, wrong video

  • I wrote a whole tribute to Dio to dio on my blog. I talk a lot about his 53 years in music come check it out. Corm1000.blogspot.com

  • no matter what sabbath has always been the Metal it self,mr iommi....ozzy,dio,gillan,marti­n....all of them are great but tha man who always made the difference was tony..respect

  • tony sucks... this isnt sabbath!!!! horns down!!!! the horns were meant to be risen for ronnie and himself only!!!

  • ozzy can't sing worth a shit . He would never be able to sing the Dio or Tony Martin stuff. Best two singers in the history of Black Sabbath

  • RIP Dio

  • WTF are you people talking about? This neither Dio nor Ozzy. This is Dio's replacement after he left. You guys need slow down on the drugs before you comment.

  • RIP Dark One.........

  • I also say Dio was better with Sabbath. Ozzy was better solo then when he was with Black Sabbath I think.

  • rip Dio.... [*]

  • Ozzy was better with sabbath, there's no doubt about that. but ronnie was great with Dio...

  • @ghm389

    HA HA HA HA, ozzie was just a singer who mainly sung geezers words, or bought songs in his solo career

    dio rip

  • Ronnie James Dio an icon of Rock and Heavy Metal, one of the most respected singers and copied at all times, the owner of one of the most beautiful voices, whose timbre Single, character Plastic was unmistakablevel and incompatible vel.

    Rest in peace, Master!

  • Dio ruled. Ozzy didn't have near the range ronnie did.RIP ronnie...

  • Adios Dio...dudes like you NEVER DIE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • DIO R.I.P lml

  • Lol, it's a video with Tony Martin, and people still argue about Dio and Ozzy. Anyway, I saw Tony perform Headless Cross at the "Whole Lotta Metal" tour, and he was asweome. He sang with clear voice and it gave me goosebumps.

  • When people say Black Sabbath i think Dio, not ozzy. Dio is just better.

  • All you arguing about Sabbath singers, lets not forget Ian Gillan and Born Again, the most underrated album in the history of heavy metal!

  • this song is a fucked masterpiece

  • nobody sings like Dio this guys a fag

  • Dio and Ozzy R just diferent... you cant analise both in the same state. Both are VERY GOOD, and, those who love Sabbath, LOVE BOTH!

  • I love you Tony Martin!!!!!!!Great singer!

  • Why do you idiots instantly hate this just because it's not Dio, he sounds almost as epic.

  • Clicked expected to hear Dio. Who is this hack and how does he get the gig with Sabbath?

  • ok but dios is way better and i cant beleive they did material dio recorded on!!!not so good imo.

  • That's the Iommi;Powell;Murray and Martin line-up that made Headless Cross and Tyr. I always thought that Tony was living the dream when he was with Sabbath and even when they brought Dio back and did the shows with Ozzy he never complained because i think he thought he was lucky to be there in the first place.

  • That still rocks. <~ period.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Its not dio. he is way better.

  • like the way u think k

  • no its toni martin!

  • thats not Dio

  • no shit sherlock luv u man

  • Oh My!

    Is that Cozy Powell at the drums??

  • @Phistra

    It is indeed. Their Monsters Of Rock performance from this time was broadcast on the Radio1 rock show, still got a tape with some of that on it, including this song.

  • ozzy es i siempre a sido i sera el mejor.

    OZZY THE BEST

  • Tony is kickin' ass!....

  • @melkor6666666 Let's be perfectly honest. When hasn't he?

  • Tony Martin is really underrated! I never heard him on others songs than those he sang, and he do really good job!

  • can you compare DIO with ozzy? shame of rock is ozzy....BOG DIO

  • I got chills when I saw Heaven and Hell play this at Sonisphere.

    Haven't been able to listen to this song without a little shiver since.

  • @yoseeo22 you suck

  • naDiie

    cOmo oZZy...

  • can somebody please do a tutorial how to play the intro on guitar? pleaseeeeeeeeeee

    ps: let me know

  • @neoniki30 Dm, Dsus, G, D, Dsus, C, F. Those are the chords, you just have to pull off a few notes (F), and hammer on the C part.

  • ozzy dio martin trinity sabbth powers! and martin does well on both dio and ozzy songs!!!

  • DIO IS A GODS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Eternal and immortal !
