nowadays metal fans don't know what a cover means do they?
it pisses me off to read offensive comments towards the bands that are making the covers, from fans of the original versions, often saying"don't try to copy" or "that's ridivulous" etc
If you, self-proclamed "fans" don't know the meaning of a cover then don't spread bullshits in the covers done by REAL FANS of the songs/bands that you think you are fans, while you can't evenrespect and understand a cover,DIO wouldn't like u to be his fan
@CaioJesusSoneca I agree with you, but Dio loved all fans, even the bad ones. :-) To underscore the other things you say: A cover is done by a band as a tribute to the original artist. They (the ones doing the cover) are the real fans. The people who don't appreciate the cover are not. I even appreciate Pat Boone for doing covers of metal songs, even though I don't like his music.
I wonder if it would have been better with Tarja doing the vocals? Could have been hilarious with her grasp of English. Marco has no chance on the softer parts, but he does ok during the aggressive section. There are very few singers who could do that transition well. I agree that Blind Guardian's version is much better.

Just pathetic try to cover the greatest! Just dont do that! Dio was one of the greatest rockbands ever and I hope amateurs dont try to copy the greatest !
these bands are not disrespecting Dio, they grew up listening to him and its a real blow to the heart. They are showing their love in their own way. This is their goodbye. Appreciate that and quit being critical. No, they can't match Dio, no one can. But they can share with their fans what "they" loved and what influenced them.
dio's songs are a trial to any metal singer.one capable to sing even one of dio's songs and not ruin it is proven immediatly an extremely good singer.so blind guardaian and nightwish past the test
You can't hear anything because whoever recorded this was standing behind the crowd. I'm sure the this cover and the Blind Guard one are comparable if it weren't for that.
@lapatin1 Song is one of the greatest piece of hard rock and metal.. and you can't compare Dio and Marco, they are different in the approach to vocals..
No, no, no. I do like NW, but this song needs a 1) a good singer and 2) a good guitar. NW has the singer but not the guitar I am afraid. Therefor I think the Blind Guardian version is better.
But why argue which cover is better? Just listen to the original!
Best cover I've heard of this. If you account for the crappy audio this kicks Blind Guardian's version in the face (and I like BG). This is on par with Rob Rock's cover of Last in Line. Great great job by Marco
Don't really know a lot by this band, to be honest. I'm a big Dio fan tho, and i have to say that Marco does a great job of this, as do the rest of the band! Great cover of a great song... (:o)

Marco Hietala could kick Ronnie James Dio's ass anyday, Hietala has such a better voice than Dio. Though, yes, Dio is great... but you gotta give some covers credit...
Other than Killswitch Engage's Holy Diver cover, i tried finding a gun and blasting my brains out after i heard that... sux!
On the demo version of Amaranth(called Reach), Marko sings the vocals.
Yes, he hits all the notes Annette hits in the final version. I have to say, the mixing is better, the chorus is much less awkward sounding, and I prefer it.
Love Both Nightwish {with Tarja} and Ronnie!
Keep Rocking Tarja! {Yes I know, she doesn't sing here}
