r.i.p Dio the king of all metal!

[SAtownZ28]

R.I.P THE KING OF METAL

[wakawakacody]

I heard a saying that when Dio entered hell he confronted the devil and said "Get out of my seat"

[KTF0]

Dio was 5'3, but had a voice of a colossal god.

[ZRT600Rider]

@KTF0 a colossal god eh? someones been on the crack a little much. sure he had a great voice but colossal god is just wierd

[techiins]

i dun believe he died fighting cancer i bet he was really fighting the devil n won so he had to claim the crown

[LambofIronSlayer]

DIO IS GOD

[criticona10]

legendary!!

[xXZorenXx]

For those who always bicker between Killswitch Engage and Dio's versions of this sing, why can't everybody agree they both kick major ass?

[bobzone09]

@xXZorenXx

exactly!!! each version doesn't compare to the other!! honestly i think KsE's version SOUNDS better, but so would dio's had they had modern instrument technology. the two are just on totally different levels, so comparing them is pointless. they both are the fucking SHIT and that's all there really is to say!

[criticona10]

R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio we'll miss you

[MillerMachinima]

this is awesome but it pisses me off when im looking for dio and i find thay gay ass asian death metal band

[GoddessofWolfBane]

Who the fuck are the faggots who pressed the dislike button!

[axlbrujo]

@GoddessofWolfBane

Killswitch Engage fags

[chodrick1]

@GoddessofWolfBane the gay members of KillShit EnGay

[EnconHUN]

i think a lot way better than Justin Bieber

[Metalmalitia141]

@EnconHUN Don't even mention that name in the presence of the all mighty Dio.

[xxCyanideRosexx]

Great song...amazing singer..R.I.P. Dio *-*

[frilender1]

Царствие небесное, пусть земля будет пухом mr. Dio, один из лучших голосов рок индустрии современности!!! низкий поклон и бурные аплодисменты!!!!

[jodin2008]

Rest in peace Dio. From Greece

[finkiable]

R.i.P mr. DIO we have lost a great rocker ::(

[Abadninja]

He will never die, his music will live on.

[keeplaughing618]

R.I.P

[rbdragon38]

Ronny Dio was one of my hero's growing up, his music deeply affected my life!

[WisRonsin1]

I still can't believe he's gone=(... RIP DIO

[ODEblocek]

metal + fantasy = epic win

[mamalovesrock]

was fortunate to see RJD 2x, once in Las Vegas and Salt Lake City. He had the crowd mesmerized. I have always loved his music. Rest in peace Ronnie, you and your music will never be forgotten!

[adouda1]

I grow up with your music

Your Music will be always here to remember you

I don't forget you

Thank you Ronnie James Dio

[jamesms4]

Eternal Rest Grant unto him O'LORD & perpetual Light shine on him! May he stand uncondemned before the Judgment Seat of Christ and ushered into the mansions of the Just where Our Father Abraham dwells. Amen!!!

God be with you Dio! You rocked my youth & middle age.

[alyssonds]

A true legend of heavy metal never dies. Rest in Peace DIO.

[mandalorekandosii]

God had Cliff Burton, Dimebag, and the Rev already, all he needed was a singer to make his band complete so he took the best one we had. Now Dio is up in heaven, sharing a few beers with God. RIP Ronnie James Dio, you may be dead in body but you will never be forgotten. \m/.

[methanopyrusniger]

RIP FROM CHILE

[mcrbookbag]

LMFAO!!!!

[GTASanAndreasMovie]

This soooo beats Killswitch Engage's version of the song!

[Mtthz]

No Shit Sherlock

[deanxs]

Calm Down Ladies ;)

[killagremlin]

I think that Dio has more skills than any other singer from the 80's. Long Live Dio and his 80's metal revolution

[Daschnek]

This song always plays on VRock during the mission "from zero to hero" on gtavcs

[IronSaucer]

EPIC WIN.

[kaz0bun]

This video is truly epic. I love it!

[annojjingthing]

This is the best song with Dio <3

[teknofatcat]

This is the most nonsensical metal song ever recorded, and I fucking love it.

All hail the metal king.

[leafsgirl41]

I am a much better singer,then Dio.

[Rodbuster]

you're a vapid whore who doesn't know the difference between "then" and "than"

[leafsgirl41]

Im soo sry,i spelt a word wrong on youtube.

sorry to offend you,nerd.

LoL

[DrunkenDwarv]

what are you trying to achieve though by telling everyone here you're a better singer than dio? you ask for replies like Rodbuster's if you say that kind of bullshit on a dio vid.

[leafsgirl41]

Shut up

[DrunkenDwarv]

great comeback... i expected more from someone who claims to be more talented than dio.

[leafsgirl41]

At singing yes

[DrunkenDwarv]

lol. you're only fooling yourself because i don't think anyone here buys it.

[MentalGunpowder62]

you're officially a sped

[leafsgirl41]

"Vapid" ugh ur a perfect example of a fucking nerd.

[kingofkinggs219]

SSSSOOO AMAZING

[krazy666monkey]

Everything htis guy has done is amazing. Rainbow, Sabbath and his own!

[025Knapper]

killswitch engage's video was better

[symphonyxftw]

Just based on videos not the song I think Kse's version is actually funny where as this is just corny

[robot666999]

i agree with that but this was 80's or something where everything is now seen as corny

[spacemanspiff33]

this is far from corny thanks, this is as BADASS as it gets, the other one is just LAME emo crap.

Metal = Wizards, Warriors, and DIO.

[symphonyxftw]

Killswitch is far from emo. If you like the dio version more its your presonal preference but you don't have to put down another respectable band and label them as something they are not

[spacemanspiff33]

oh i'm sorry, I thought we were talking about Killswitch Engage. What respectable band then were you referring too?

[pepperroni16]

I prefer Killswitch's version alot more. They really made it there own song. This is good. I agree with symphony... its all just personal preference.

[spacemanspiff33]

alright then, so by your reasoning, I can build a gokart, stick a Ferarri insignia on it, get a bunch of idiots from some third world who have never seen a car before letalone a ferarri to say my car is COOOOOOOOOOOOL and that its better than a ferarri thats all personal preference. You cant rip off someone elses shit and "make it your own". They didnt make shit they simply played notes off a piece of paper (horribly mind you) and noodled around a bit. Garbage. DIO FTW.

[justinjonesypoo]

to hell with you. you probably dont even know who originally wrote the song 'behind blue eyes' fucking nu-metal piece of shit fuck.

[NintendolinkXX]

rofl, ur a noob

[vadkerta]

it's not about which is better.

KsE covered it. Just trying to give a new perspective to the song.

[Pyruss1]

DIO all the way....

[KaminaziPyro]

Try spelling the band's name right next time, bud.

[wenalorm]

dude, dio man, dio

[leosalmela1212]

KSE sucks worst singer too must screaming stupid drumming stupid guitar stupid bass... Dio rocks

[yugioh139]

KSE version is so much better

[nazi8per]

Why? Their singer doesn't beat Dio, and as far as instruments and beats go, it's all the same.

The only real difference is the guitar play which i don't favor...

I kinda like the dark 80's feeling, not the new version. It mocks Dio.

[buttmaster828]

i think that this version is way better, the guitars have that 80s feal and the vocals blow away KSE i like this video better too

[OxidaneProductions]

lol the 80's feAl.

[symphonyxftw]

The cover by Kse is modern, that is why the guitars don't sound from the eighties.

[trinityvampire123]

Lol this is such a cliche metal band.

[cataclystic666]

this song is kick ass just the way it is; i don't really like the kse version.

[buddycox]

me and my buddies used to rock 2 this shit in the early eighties! i still love it!! Who's the drummer , i think his name is vinnie arpice , correct me if im wrong.

[HaxxorWaxor]

Kse Version Much Better / i think

[rushNO]

well its a decent song!! but killswitch engage make it awesome!! so i vote kse!! :)

[Pestilator]

dio is better than kse

[pshycocrazyfunnyguy]

@Pestilator no shit haha

[PATAR144]

KSE

[mike23crawford]

alright so the song is amazing, but is it about his sword? i dont really get this song

[mistermarcos86]

Its actually about a Warior who is in a quest to beat some holy guy. Something like that. or you can go to google search and look for holy diver meaning.

[flamewheel61]

holy diver is the devil. its about the guy who defeated the devil.

[Kiroyce]

the song is about God turning on people and killing them.. But it could also be about doing drugs..

[noobn00bnoob]

I am 10 and i am learning all dios songs finnishing with better in the dark.

[blackmore88]

for some cool dio, deep purple and led zeppelin covers go here, enter my channel...

there is a holy diver cover 2!

[RonnyEqualReptar]

Hahahah, this video and song. Make me laugh. So hard. Not in a mean way, I like the song, it just is so funny with the video. Bahahaha (:

[CapelaArcana]

don't complain about the Video, you forget that this song is from the 80's where everything was flashy and Metal had an Epic Fantasy stayl to it then.

it's like looking at a racing car from the 50's and saying "that's not fast" well for today it's not but it was the fastest car around in the 50's. what i'm attempting to say is thet when you watch a video from the 80's don't compare it to today's coz' every thing is difrent, BUT DIO STILL RULZZ!!!!

[bullsfan419]

i love both versions of holy diver.

[amannuz]

amazing song but bad video

[Saku19]

Pretty good, considering what they had to work with back in the day.

[pitpride1986]

Kilswitch has a really kickin' version of holy diver and the video is sweet... I love Dio but yes they video's blew

[RebelFounderOdogoo]

i love the song so much but this video is horried although a lot of 80 videos where cause well most people where beyond high when they made them

[ImportBurner]

The video gets kinda cheesy, but it's the 80s.

Still one of the best songs ever made.

[RHardy5501]

dio goes to sainsburys

[Freakof5FDP]

hey like ur username man. 666 for life bitches

[Slashn64]

no... its dio, nice try idiot

[TheAtma]

Is this Killswitch?

[amannuz]

at the top it says dio not killswitch

[deadfreedom54]

it seems as though people are preconditioned to favour whichever version of this song they saw/heard first. I think they're both good for different reasons. I can also appreciate the humour in both videos :) lol they're freakin sweet!

[01tbrown81]

i agree with u. i like both version, each for different reasons. for the dio version, cause it's the original, there wouldn't be a cover for it if there was no original. i like the kse version because it gives for of a storyline and wen i saw the guy pretending 2 b the princess or watever, i was lmao.

[darkfall13]

Hellz yeah I want to be as great a warrior as that first guy!

[Boraguard]

This video is awesome solely for the fact he is soooooo serious in it.

[Veilbound]

KSE's version was pretty hardcore..but this is still the best.

[funkadelicman4889]

i didnt like that mcuh

[Stephenthegreat20]

i love the sheer goofyness of both dio's and kse's videos for this song

this one espicially for the paper demon thing :]

[TheReaper606]

you cant compare this version with KsE's because they are both totally different its your opinion which ones better. i personally like both of them for different reasons the heavy guitars in KsE's but the singing in this one.

[bullsfan419]

i definetly agree with you

[Dordrius]

The sad part is this was technology at it's prime back in those days. LOL, god that brings me back.

[Strufe1337]

well i like Kse version better. but this is version si also awesome

[LesleyLLastex]

both versions are fuckin' awesome!! KSE is a fucking good metal core band, and Dio is a metal god!!

[xx1brit1xxx]

wow..this sucks...Killswitch Engage's cover of this is wayyy better...this video is so gayy......just my opinion..feel free to disagree...

[thespazranger]

FAG!!!

[uwishuwerecool024]

killswitch engages video sucks just as bad fag

[TheArneShow]

indeed

[Stephenthegreat20]

both videos are susposed to be a joke and dont dis on dio's version of the song beacuse with out him kse would have never covered it

[xNEVERTRYx]

ya the maxx!! loved that show

[AVP698]

I love both versions especially the KillSwitchEngage version.I really hope i dont piss anyone off but is it just or does Ronny james Dio have fugly ass teeth no offense to anyone though.

[dioxazinepurple567]

videos kinda corny but i love this song <333

[Cryptlord60]

2:56-3:20 is gold

[bullsfan419]

i like both versions but i think the kse version is better. mad respect to dio though for creating an amazing song.

[kegs666]

Prolly because you are a metalcore fan though mate...as a cover, the KSE version is embarassing.

[bullsfan419]

this is true. it all depends on what you like.

[kegs666]

Yep.

[tama6767]

Dio's vocals are way better than the guy from killswitch

[prodigyoftheyear]

its always good to look back to the past ;D

[CssNoobguyhacked]

I totally agree.

[xXxEuphoriaxXxmetal]

dio rules!!

[dmohar12345]

roflcopter this version is horrible respect them for inventing the song but killswitchs version is waay better

[xXxEuphoriaxXxmetal]

also the guitarsolo is to short in this video..

actually it is longer...

[sionj2k6]

This is such a stupid arguement lol

Dio's was made how long ago?

with todays technology? of course the video is gonna be different.. and metal music has moved on alot since this, so to say this isn't metal is like sayin Iron maiden aren't metal

I also rather Killswitch Engage's version. I thinkt hey covered the song amazingly well, they redid the original in their style without killing the song, but no one should be saying this is shit... If you are then you're a very close minded fan of music

[freezedrysealdan]

i like both versions but killswitch's version is abit better.. prefer their solo too! that shit is rockin!

[pokefacer3]

killswitchs version was so much better, it was heavier, better guitar and this video is really shit tbh just look at the way dio moves while holding the sword i mean come on who the fuck walks like that!!!

[thefeesrcomin]

shut the fuck up and respect the fucking rock legend that is DIO

[dexterbleeds]

this video reminds me of He-man and thundercats. lol.

[bslforever]

:O thundercats are ho!

[A666FTW]

wtf has thundercats got to do wit anything go eat a dick

[clintomano]

this is as metal as deep purple is lol

you guys are just middle aged losers

[JeanieTallis]

i prefer kse, there heavier, but I'd say there both metal though.

[tayhunter113]

favorite dio song it rules!!!!!!!

[clayj4727]

they are both good kse is just more meatl

[ontendootlorge]

LMAO you dumb fuck

[ura69er]

i liked killswitchs cover more it was alote heavier and had more guitar

[Metalshalrule]

but dude.... this is a metal old school classic, how in the name of god can you like K.E version better

[berf249]

this is barely metal

[Blacktar123]

It's metal at its Prime... People just don't like to admit it.

[SlipKnot666MFKR]

WTF are you talking about?

this IS metal.

[MetalFan713]

u r a disgrace saying that dio-holy diver is not metal. Dio is a metal god and evry song he has is 100% metal. DIO KEEP ON ROCKIN!!

MetalFan713

[inacdcwetrust]

why dont you think this is metal?

[chubbard0906]

Evidentally all you people that are saying fuck killswitch cuz they screwed up the cover of holy diver don't know what good metal is. I think both versions are bad ass. Just depends on how heavy you like your music on which is better

[stuntdoub201]

I think this version is better than the one by Killswitch Engage... but that is only my opinion.

[drunkendan]

that's because this is the original that is made of win

[SlipKnot666MFKR]

no its everyones with any knowledge of musics opinion, wich apears to be not alot of people on youtube.

[Maltrapilhow]

Who the hell thinks any killswitch can be compared to DIO? goddamn it.

[ali967]

Fuck KSE

[LightningDemon]

I wished I never watched this video. Ruined the whole song for me. :( ... and I've been a true DIO fan since he was with Rainbow.

Damn youtube...

Danyael

;-Demon

[fashaferash]

obviously not

[amayahatake13]

Eh, this ones OKAY but I prefer KSEs version way better.

[XxRyukotsuxX]

Agreed.

[SuperDroogie187]

Put the crack pipe down! No, really...put it down!

Killswitch Engage RUINED the song!
