    Ronnie James Dio did indeed popularize the horns in the metal scene ...Its origins are actually from Sicily/Italy. It's called "the Maloik" or "Malocchio" or "the evil eye" Dio was Italian, and throwing up the horns at a foe was a superstitious way to fend off the "evil eye", or negativity from an enemy in Italy. Dio used to throw the horns up on stage when he sang for Black Sabbath after Ozzy left in 79' and the rest is history. Now we throw up the \m/ to hail metal in all its glory!..... Basically a metalhead's stank face.

      Growing up in the Bible Belt in the 80s with the “satanic panic” I was terrified listening to Ozzy and Dio would sacrifice my eternal soul. Grew up being told the “Devil’s horns” meant “Hail Satan” much like Christian performers give a nod to God. It was such an education in propaganda and how easy a scared population run with whatever. So glad you posted this. I remember laughing my ass off hearing the true origins in an interview with a very kind and normal Ronnie in his home.

    • @romanoperelli7018
      @romanoperelli7018 8 месяцев назад +5

      As an Italian myself I totally agree with this explanation. Actually, in Italian folklore the gesture is accompanied with the exclamation "Tiè!" (more or less "keep it to yourself!" or "back to you!")

      He also said he learned it from his Grandmother. She would do it to ward off evil spirits of people that they would encounter walking down the street. This can be found in one of his documentaries.

    The legendary Ronnie James Dio, considered by many one of the greatest rock singer of all time. He made history of Hard Rock as singer of Rainbow, Black Sabbath and later with his personal project Dio. Sadly he passed away in 2010 because of a stomach cancer.

  • @rebecca7156
    @rebecca7156 8 месяцев назад +80

    Yes, Dio started the trend with the sign of the horns at rock concerts. It was used by various cultures as a sign to ward off evil and his grandmother, a traditional Italian lady, used it frequently. So, he decided to use it in concerts and it took off from there. He did not invent the hand gesture, obviously, but he made it popular in the context of rock music.

All amazing voices

    • @denouncedmusic
      @denouncedmusic 8 месяцев назад +1

      ​@GrowingDownUnder arguments can be made for a lot of singers. Especially in the rock and metal genre because we are incredibly lucky that it has been filled with so much talent through out the years. It's all subjective and of course down to personal opinion. Glenn Danzing and Ian Astbury wouldn't be in my top 1000 singers list but I can certainly understand why people would like them because they are unique and instantly recognisable. Dio will always my number 1 voice because for some reason it just hits me. Probably down to pure nostalgia because he was a big part of my youth but i feel it right in my bones haha 😂

    Dio, born Ronald James Padavona, was born in New Hampshire and lived in New York and California. He might have lived in England for a time when he was in Black Sabbath, but I don't know for sure. This album, Holy Diver, was released in 1983, after Dio left Black Sabbath in 1982. Nightwish singer Floor Jansen is married to the drummer of Sabaton, a band from Sweden. RIP Dio! You must react to Rainbow - Stargazer, a superb song featuring Dio.

From "Stargazer" and "Rainbow in the Dark" with Rainbow, "Heaven and Hell" and "Mob Rules" with Sabbath, to "Don't Talk to Strangers" and "The Last in Line" solo, Ronny James Dio defined metal.
    Congrats on making it to the top of the A category (largest following) in Disco Doc's RENaction World Cup! Good luck on the finals!

    Dio was one of the most iconic artist in the Metal Music genre. Whether solo, with Black Sabbath, or Rainbow his voice, music, and talent can't be overrated. This is a whole new rabbit hole for you to explore. Check out Rainbow in the Dark, Don't Talk to Strangers, Last in Line, Mob Rules (Black Sabbath), Light in the Black (Rainbow), and Stargazer (Rainbow). Also, listen to the studio or live version of Holy Diver. This version was shortened.

      Ronnie James Dio was known for popularizing the sign of the horns in heavy metal. He claimed his Italian grandmother used it to ward off the evil eye (which is known in Italy as malocchio). Dio began using the sign soon after joining the metal band Black Sabbath in 1979.

    And, yes Ronnie James Dio was the one who originated 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻 in the music industry. He once said in an interview that he took it from his old world Italian grandmother. She referred to it as giving the evil eye. She would give that look to someone & make the 🤘🏻 hand gesture with the fingers pointed at the person she'd be giving the look to. You know that look that you'd get from an old woman that didn't like you, what your doing, or what you've done. We'd call it the stink eye.

    Dio was the lead vocalist for Black Sabbath after Ozzy got fired. You are correct. In many ways the heavy rock that turned into heavy metal originates not in Scandinavia but in the UK first and then a bit later the US. Though it was more Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath that are arguably the pioneers. Judas Priest and Motorhead came a little bit after Sabbath and Zeppelin and Deep Purple.

    @scottspringer3625 8 месяцев назад

    Ronnie James Dio (born Ronald James Padavona) was from upstate NY, specifically Cortland, NY. His father was a musician and Dio learned to play trumpet originally, although he could play multiple instruments. His rock music career started back in 1957 in a local band that eventually transformed into the rock band Elf. From there he eventually teamed up with British guitar legend Ritchie Blackmore to form Rainbow, a stint that lasted for a few years until Black Sabbath fired Ozzy Osbourne and asked Dio to replace Ozzy. Dio fronted Black Sabbath for a couple of years until he and the other band members had a falling out, leading to the formation of the band Dio.

    Ronnie James Dio ( 1942 - 2010 ) was the legendary vocalist of Dio (the band) which he formed in 1983... 'Holy Diver' was their debut album... He popularized the "devil's horns" gesture when he replaced Ozzy Osbourne in Black Sabbath from 1980 to 1982 and would do "🤘🤘" at concerts - he said he got it from his superstitious Catholic grandmother who would flash the sign to ward off the 'evil eye'.
    Born Ronald James Padavona in an Italian American family, he formed a disdain for religion after being raised in a strict Catholic upbringing... he decided to become a singer in the late 1950's after becoming a rock n' roll fan... He made a name for himself singing R&B/ do wop songs and changed his name to Ronnie James Dio ('Dio' being the Latin word for 'God') in the 1960's.
    Eventually, Ronnie Dio became a fan of heavy rock music (Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath) and had his own heavy rock band Elf in the early 1970's... In 1975, Deep Purple's guitarist Ritchie Blackmore offered him a job as the singer for his new band Rainbow... that became Ronnie Dio's first taste of major fame, but he was fired in 1979 after 3 albums (Rainbow went in a pop rock direction afterwards)...
    Soon after, Ronnie was asked to replace Ozzy Osbourne as the vocalist for Black Sabbath... His first Sabbath album 'Heaven and Hell' in 1980 became a platinum hit, but he left the band after a 2nd album 'Mob Rules' in 1981 and a live album 'Live Evil' in 1982.
    In 1983, Ronnie James Dio and former Sabbath drummer Vinny Appice recruited former Rainbow bassist Jimmy Bain... and then a young Irish guitarist Vivian Campbell... and that became the band Dio... They had a hit debut album 'Holy Diver'... followed by a platinum album 'The last in line' in 1984... However, after a 3rd album 'Sacred heart' in 1985, guitarist Vivian Campbell left after a financial dispute w/ Ronnie Dio.
    Unfortunately, Dio's popularity dropped after their 4th album 'Dream evil' in 1987... a 5th Dio album 'Lock up the wolves' in 1990 was recorded w/ a completely new line-up and failed commercially.
    A chance meeting led to Ronnie Dio reconnecting w/ Black Sabbath members and they decided to reunite in 1992 and recorded a 3rd Black Sabbath album ('Dehumanizer') w/ Ronnie Dio on vocals... but he quit in 1993 after refusing to open for Ozzy Osbourne.
    Ronnie Dio returned w/ a new Dio line-up in 1993, but their popularity in the 90's was decimated by the grunge rock scene... but Dio persisted in recording and touring... Dio saw his popularity rise again after 2000 as members came and went...
    In 2006, Ronnie James Dio was again approached about working w/ Black Sabbath members again... They decided to rename the band Heaven and Hell and recorded 1 studio album in 2009 ('The devil you know') and tour... Ronnie was also working on new songs for Dio.
    Sadly, Ronnie James Dio was diagnosed w/ colon cancer in '09... He underwent treatment, but passed away in 2010 at age 67 (R.I.P.)
    His widow / manager Wendy Dio just released a documentary film on the late singer - "Dio: Dreamers never die"

    Dungeons and Dragons / Apocalyptic themes with music and movies were huge in the 80's, but 80's videos have no correlation to the songs being played. MTV was new and a lot of up and coming directors were making all kinds of strange videos to show of their stuff. Ronnie James Dio is considered the Godfather of Metal and yes, he 'Popularized' The metal symbol \m/,

    There will never be another like Ronnie James Dio!! His vocals will never be matched. He is the best metal vocalist that ever walked this planet. You definitely need to check out more Dio, especially when he was with Black Sabbath. He is/was the best thing that ever happened to Sabbath IMO. He was the kindest most compassionate man when it came to his fans. Pure legend. He is greatly missed. R.I.P. Ronnie

    I grew up in the San Fernando Valley....North Hollywood specifically (the old NoHo). One day, ditching school, some of my friends and I ended up at Shakey's Pizza on Laurel Cyn for their "All you can eat" pizza buffet. We've all loaded up our plates and are scarfing down when one of my friends looks up and notices none other than Ronnie James Dio and what I now assume was his wife, eating a couple of tables away from us. We get done with our meal and talk among ourselves and gather up the courage to go say hi. We told him how much we loved him and his music and how incredible he was, One thing we had agreed on though, was not to ask him for an autograph. We talked with him for about 5 minutes and went on our way. From that point on, I would see him probably once a week (he and his wife's recording studio was on Laurel Cyn, down the street from Shakey's, but we didn't know that at the time). Every time he would see me/us, he would say hi and ask how we were doing. He was SO cool, such a personable dude, such a gentleman. We were probably 15-16 and he treated us like friends. It hurt a lot when we lost him. Long live Ronnie James Dio....a true King among men.

    The horn sign is an old hand gesture used to vanquish evil spirits. Word is Dio was the first in rock to use it and he use to see his grandmother doing it to clear their house of evil.

    Dio's grandmother I believe use to give him the sign to let him know she was watching him & anything bad he was doing she could see it. She was warning him, she's always watching, so he brought it out into the early days of Rock/Metal. Dio is one of the fathers of old school Metal. Dio's lyrics focus on the unseen, magical, spiritual, good vs evil, right & wrong & the search for truth of life. Dio was in Black Sabbath when Ozzy left, he is one of the Kings of Frontmen singers for Rock/Metal, very well thought of.

    Not they, He. The band is named after the singer, Ronnie James Dio. And he introduced the 'maloik' (hand gesture) he learned from his gypsy grandmother as a hand gesture to block or give the evil eye. He thought it was cool and used it onstage. It became know as the devil horns (amongst other names) and became the ubiquitous symbol / gesture for metal music and heads.

    Im sure everyone in the comment praised Dio and this song enough so im gonna praise it indirectly. This song is great for metal / rock neophytes and also for reactions because Killswitch Engage did a fantastic cover of it. The opportunity here is to see the difference between old school metal and (since i dont want to say new school metal cause it got a bed rep) current metal. Although you guys been reacting to older metal and newer metal, i dont think you ever listened to the same song in both styles. Maybe you'll discover something, who knows.

    Lol, 😂 that's how you interpret ''Holy Diver', Dio was big into philosophy, literature, history etc and he had a way with lyrics that would require many many listens to start to unravel the intended message or messages. Holy Diver = Muff Diver lol 😂😂😂

    You need to listen to Rainbow "Stargazer" or "Kill the King" (live in Munich) to see the synergy between three geniuses develop. Ritchie Blackmore (guitar), Cozy Powell (drums) and Ronnie James Dio (vocals). Each one of this musicians are one of a kind.
