really pop. i was around back then and radio stations would give no play to groups like this at all. they got popular by word of mouth and touring hard. not like today where someone can post a vid on youtube and become big. back then you had to work hard to get there.
This Dio song feels quite poppy to me, with big simple riffs and structuring. On the other hand, the vocals make it a lot more powerful than it would be in the hands of most other popular '80s metal vocalists. Also, the solo in the middle was unusually effective for whatever reason. So my opinions are leaning towards positive
@666POD666 it is pop since pop is short for popular and this is popular music its just that nowadays pop has lost its variety to disinclude good music and has been ruined by the media
