Everybody is a critic. Instead of trying to compare this band and singer with the original they should listening to them now not in the past. They sound very good and so does the singer. She has a good voice is and not trying to be someone else. Thanks for letting me hear them.
Apparently I’m 6 years late commenting on this one but it just surfaced in my feed. This cover is AMAZING girl and boys! I think the dark side suits Emily extremely well, and while we must give credit to RJD and Tony for blessing us with this timeless work of art, Emily and band have created a cover to be proud of. The energy, passion and darkness resonates in the spirit of Sabbath, and the guitar work is top shelf. THANK YOU for sharing this with us. I shared this video with my metal for breakfast friends, and they all raise their glasses in your honor for this one…magnificent! 🤘🏻👊🫡
Holy crap!!! Thee Ken Tamplin!!! Dude I loved your work in Magdallan, you and Lanny Cordola, if I remember correctly? It’s been so long!! I love you guys man, sorry to geek out for a minute. Peace bro!
Nothing beats the feeling when everyone in a band "nails it" while performing a song. Chills and euphoria at the same time... This cover is providing those feelings to us the viewers but also the musicians I'm sure! Great, Great cover!
Totally! Dio is way up at a Bb on the first note, wow. (Goes up to high C# on the second syllable of heaven in chorus!) In this vid they're up a half-step but I agree it feels like this is right in her wheel house where it is. edit: shout out to her manual "echo" at 3:19 lol
Thank you! This is a huge compliment. It was quite an undertaking and I'm grateful I had the opportunity to have a crack at it! (And the manual echo is one of my favorite little personal flairs I added 🤣🔥🤘🏻)
It's excellent, 2 versions i like better, a random band called Division takes a weird attempt at it and nails it, and Benedictum, is hands down the closest version to Dio. I have to mention te awesome Manowar version as well but that takes 4th to me i put this in 3rd that ive ever seen
So much good has already been pointed out I'll point out one last thing. MASSIVE props to either the keyboardist OR whomever edited this video for keeping the keyboardist's eyes off the uh.....scenery? Herculean effort.
Still really digging this arrangement. I saw the “heaven and Hell” tour in the small city of Casper, Wy. I lived on the Wind River Rez then. This song blew us away as did the entire show. Great playing and vocals too.
@Great White 100 bucks says the great white chump has ZERO music/singing ability. All he is good at is whining like a little kid. I bet your parents are real proud. Now go away and try to erase that big L on your forehead.
I have watched this video often and sometimes prefer this version to the original. Everyone is spot on. Emily's voice is pure power. More classic Metal!
What an insane cover. Everything is SPOT ON. I literally listen to this now over the original. The vocals are amazing, the guitar, everything. Well done
Love the singer's tone, no need for the Dio impersonations, you got this, own it. Great job and a really cool voice! The work you put in is very evident! Great job!
Well, you were probably watching half ass, cover bands on yt, from amateur teen musicians. In this order: ruclips.net/video/C_-rNPMDZqo/видео.html ruclips.net/video/_DHjvzW6DVM/видео.html ruclips.net/video/uS6AmPjszIY/видео.html
This is, far and away, by a massive margin, the BEST EVER version of Heaven and Hell I have ever heard. That bass is insane, the drumming spot on, simply superb guitar work, keyboards to match, and a superlative voice... I hear this at least twice daily, and I never get tired of it...
This is one of my absolute favorite songs from Black Sabbath! Props to y'all on it too! The Dark Minister Dio himself looks on in approval and appreciation from the Carousel called Life!
Richie, I live in Brazil and I'm a big fan of your work. What an amazing interpretation of the Black Sabbath's greatest song. The musicians are all fantastic and Emily is a beautiful girl with an incredible voice. Best wishes and long live Band Geeks.
I like motion device they do some covers and I like that when I mean it's not like a powerful super powerful like hypnotic whatever but I like old girls voice and it seems like it was better when she was like 12 then when she grew up her voice but if you haven't heard that and copy and try motion device
I feel that "very good" understates how good the vocals are - rock bands used to spend $millions in studio time and not get vocals, and the instruments too, that sound this good.
@@EmilyNacchio i could not get enough of your cover, I love the way you sing! You're a real artist, you sing with emotion! Your cover of Alanis Morrissette's You Oughta Know is super, i love it! You are awesome!
Came across this cover again... And again, it blew my mind... It's just perfect! The music is just great, and that lovely voice with a touch of rage is just beautiful. I fell in love with this song once again, my all time favorite!
Love how the lead guitar player hands off the guitar at the end of the solo to the bass player, while it's still ringing out. Very cool! and damn that girl can sing!
I like female rock singers, Dio isn't easy for many girl singers, have you heard Melody Cristea of Liliac sing this song? It's on RUclips, well worth checking out!
You guys produce some of the best covers I've heard. For a guy in a covers band it's really inspirational. A massive bonus that you film them too. Awesome!!
OK -- WOW. This is the first cover of any Black Sabbath song I am truly impressed with (bit of an Iommi snob, here). Whodathunkit... Excellent job guys/gal.
When I first heard this song, I was just blown away.. RJD with Black Sabbath at a time when this music was new and I was young... I am greatful to have had the experience... Kids today will never know the thrill of getting an anticipated album. The smell of a newly opened record and hoping the lyrics were on the sleeve.. finally placing the needle and listening over and over...
WOW!!! Love the transition into the acoustic outtro ......... The sustaining guitar handoff WELL PLAYED!! Then the acoustic guitar, Just beautiful and brilliantly done.. Respect \m/
Great job with this song - been a Sabbath fan since the early 70's, especially the Dio years - you even remembered the nylon string ending, which most cover bands drop completely. Nice.
I was watching it, and as they came up to the ending I thought "this was pretty good -- BUT, are they going to do the ending?" Yup. Nailed it. In total.
WOW!! You guys totally knocked that one out of the park. The vocalist, with her power and grit nailed it. I think Ronnie would have approved .Very well done!
Am I the only one who thinks this is one of the greatest guitar riffs of all time?
Glenn, no. You're not alone in that thought. The guitar 🎸 riffs are beyond believability.
NOPE!
End of the Rainbow by hammerfall, reminds me a lot of the riff
NO
so does an upvote mean you are the only one or, ... I'm confused. lol
Everybody is a critic. Instead of trying to compare this band and singer with the original they should listening to them now not in the past. They sound very good and so does the singer. She has a good voice is and not trying to be someone else. Thanks for letting me hear them.
I wish I could give this a thumbs-up every time I watch it - wow, she can sing this song!!!!!
no she cant. She sounds like a girl. She doesn't sound evil enough, this is like debbie gibson, tiffany, madona types
Amen! This is one hell of a cover!
Whoever drafted in Emily to sing this......is a genius!
her sister is part of the band
4:53 tho...
AND She looks much better in Lyrca that Ronnie ! :O)
Eyes on the keys. EYES. ON. THE. KEYS.
HaHa, my thoughts exactly!!
Best "seat" in the house 🤣
She's an amazing singer, too. Just wow.
wow, didn't even notice there was a keyboard player :)
I didn't see any keys? 🤣
There is so much talent in that room. That Geezer bass line is killer.
better than you mate
@@aceofspades5786 yep. Do you feel better now?
So much talent!!!
You guys are great
@@aceofspades5786 Better than you as well.

@@EmilyNacchio Hello, Emily! ❤
Love your vocals in this tribute Emily...
Three years, and still the BEST cover of this song on RUclips!
I'll bet that 30 years from now this version won't have been bettered.
Try Liliac
@@daveh7186 Liliac are pretty good, and _great_ for a bunch of kids, but they still have a lot of growing to do, musically speaking.
@@pulaski1 that is an incredible compliment. Thank you. 💜🔥🤘🏻
6 years and still not beaten!
Nothing beats the feeling when everyone in a band "nails it" while performing a song.
Chills and euphoria at the same time...
This cover is providing those feelings to us the viewers but also the musicians I'm sure!
Great, Great cover!
Even a female singer has to reach deep to sing this song. Dio was a one of a kind vocalist.
Totally! Dio is way up at a Bb on the first note, wow. (Goes up to high C# on the second syllable of heaven in chorus!)
In this vid they're up a half-step but I agree it feels like this is right in her wheel house where it is.

Just a Professional 👍
I’m hearing so much here…
Her vocals….a little Doro Peche maybe?
Lead guitar… just a touch of Floyd…
Love the arrangement!
I never get tired of listening to this performance, top notch vocals and instrumentation!
She sings this so well it's a perfect alternative vocal to the original IMAO.
Still really digging this arrangement. I saw the “heaven and Hell” tour in the small city of Casper, Wy. I lived on the Wind River Rez then. This song blew us away as did the entire show. Great playing and vocals too.
I wasn't aware that Boris Johnson also plays drums! He's just full of surprises.
yeah right after he was released from the hospital...
You mean it’s not Owen hart?! 🤔
Well, he is a gifted fucker, aren`t he, mate?
I was going to say Julian Assange
I really thought it was Ed Sheeran tbh
Damm I love her voice. Perfect for this song!
She's perfect at all
@Great White ruclips.net/video/mkLWC-clCjk/видео.html Try this
@Great White Ok bye, we won't miss you...
@Great White 100 bucks says the great white chump has ZERO music/singing ability. All he is good at is whining like a little kid. I bet your parents are real proud. Now go away and try to erase that big L on your forehead.
Love her voice and jeeeez she’s hot
Loved this cover. One of my favorite songs and you did it beautifully.
Talented musicians all
Thank you
Absolutely captivating at the highest degree.....she nailed it " those guys are Elite musicians.
I have watched this video often and sometimes prefer this version to the original. Everyone is spot on. Emily's voice is pure power. More classic Metal!
Definitely the best cover. Would love to hear her sing Neon lights.
Excellent cover!!! Ronnie would be proud!! Beautiful solo! Loved Emily’s vocals!! The way she accentuated the lyrics just like good old Ronnie! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
What an insane cover.
Everything is SPOT ON. I literally listen to this now over the original.
The vocals are amazing, the guitar, everything.
Well done
Whaaat ??? Her voice is no where Ronnies..
@@trickysparrow Yes it is. She sings exactly the same way he does.
Same man, I've listened to this cover like dozens of times. I just love their tone and over all energy lol
Your tone def bro.
Not even close to sir Ronnie James Dio. LMFAO
Also Ronnie didn't have to look down at a screen for the lyrics.
Emily does a great job. I especially like her vocals as she's wrapping up the song.
Except she didn't know the lyrics - had too keep reading them off the ipad.
@@jtinnac1895
So what?
Ronnie is smiling at this one...Brilliant vocals by Emily and excellent job by the guys...very cool..
Best remake of a song ever! Been watching this for a year and it never gets old!
Beth Hart singing I Don't Need No Doctor is the best remake for my money.

@@Yiannis2112 Hey I liked the the one by Death Angel. It might be better that this one by the bank geek.
@@joseolmos9841 The other two by Solitude and Manowar are a step above DA's cover. For me that is. Can't compare with Lowe and Adams.
If anyone didn't catch it, you dis honor the master.
@@Yiannis2112 yeah na she rocks
This is, far and away, by a massive margin, the BEST EVER version of Heaven and Hell I have ever heard. That bass is insane, the drumming spot on, simply superb guitar work, keyboards to match, and a superlative voice...
I hear this at least twice daily, and I never get tired of it...
You are tone death, this is not the best
Best thing about this is they are clearly, visibly enjoying the music themselves, just look at them.
By far one of the best covers of this classic !!!!!!!!!
Black Sabbath is my favorite band of all time. You guys absolutely rocked it! Great cover, keep on rocking.
I get goosebumps every time I hear it. The band is awesome and Emily is superlative. Got addicted to her voice!
Have heard many covers over the years and without doubt this performance is right up there at the top.
Another masterful cover . You guys rock and Miss Emily is just Amazing !!! Thanks you guys.
Keep coming back to listen to this. Dio was a uniquely expressive vocalist, and Emily really does him justice.
This is one of my absolute favorite songs from Black Sabbath! Props to y'all on it too! The Dark Minister Dio himself looks on in approval and appreciation from the Carousel called Life!
Man oh man.. What the heaven and hell is going on!
I could not possibly be more impressed with this performance.
This got to be best cover ever!
really best cover never made in history, great sound, great mood, great voice, great Richie and great Band Geeks!!!!
Richie, I live in Brazil and I'm a big fan of your work. What an amazing interpretation of the Black Sabbath's greatest song. The musicians are all fantastic and Emily is a beautiful girl with an incredible voice. Best wishes and long live Band Geeks.
mundicojr ...no no no ... RJDio The best.
Black Sabbaths "GREATEST" song? You need to do some more research!
Go Distribute around world for Black sabbath
Black Sabbath's greatest song post Ozzy; not all time.
Traduz para o português também 🤣🤣
tone and everything is bomb! Emily is amazing!
I've been listening to this for 6 years and it's still my favorite cover of heaven and hell.
Same Fucking Here, my man, Same here!!!
The acoustic outro is the cherry on top, A+!
This is truly AMAZING. They nailed it!!!!!!!
Every time I watch this performance I sing along louder and louder. Such a GREAT cover. RJD would be proud.
flippin excellent, Emily is an awesome singer.
Best cover I've ever heard of Heaven and Hell. Most singers try to sound like Ronnie or have way to weak voice, but this was very good.
This was a wonderful compliment. Thank you Mikael! 🤘

Just one word = FANTASTIC
Love how the lead guitar player hands off the guitar at the end of the solo to the bass player, while it's still ringing out. Very cool! and damn that girl can sing!

Sometimes the simplest solutions are the best!
That "bass player" is Richie Castellano.Maybe you've heard of Blue Oyster Cult? Get wise son
@@timkohn7770 Maybe there are still a few people on this planet who don't know this guy's name or Blue Oyster Cult. It happens. Get wise, bud
Emily's voice is like Heaven, and you guys can rock like Hell😀 what a combination of talents. Amazing song amazing cover. Love your music ❤
What a great cover! Fantastic vocals Emily! Awesome!
love how we lapse into an Old English-like madrigal to close out the song.
Killer job, guys!
man, I wish I could give this a thumbs up every time I watch it... Emily for more Dio songs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like female rock singers, Dio isn't easy for many girl singers, have you heard Melody Cristea of Liliac sing this song? It's on RUclips, well worth checking out!
Incredible! Great band! And this lady sings briliantly! Heavy metal isn't just for the boys.
Emily is frickin' awesome! Wow! The tone, the power, and all that control -- the trifecta of an unbelievable vocalist. Keep on rockin'! 💜🎶
I just have to watch this every once in a while, AMAZING version by all but Emily WOW WOW WOW
You guys produce some of the best covers I've heard. For a guy in a covers band it's really inspirational. A massive bonus that you film them too. Awesome!!

Good choice for the vocals. She's got a really good voice for this.
maybe she'll learn the lyrics for next time
Nope, she's got that annoying habit of nasal yarling that people seem to think lends aggression, doesn't mean she's good.
@@kevinmcguinness1113 she's good. move on.
@@moonlitegram girl does Eddie Vedder doing Dio, meh.
@@kevinmcguinness1113 ::yawn::
That was absolutely smoking, great performance, utterly nailed.
Emily wails.
Beautiful cover and amazing crew....phenomenal!
The Nacchio sisters...talent overload! Emily's just as badass as Ann Marie!
Love the guitar players reaction to Emily's first breakout into Dio at 0:51
thats the attitude it needs!
If a look could convey "F'ing Hell that's amazing!" it did!
I can't help but do impersonations... as well as be a goofball! I'm glad you guys enjoyed it! 💜🔥🤘🏼
This isn't bad. Not many people can sing as good as Dio. He was truly one of the most underrated front men of all time.
Nice cover.
Dio is one of the best of all time...
Underrated by who? He was one of the greatest voices in heavy rock!
Execuse me as the cover of BS song this is stunning
He is Just Metal God and not underrated , best hard rock/Metal singer ever
She's killer on this song.. brutal all the way around
@QuestionMan Well someone was right!
@QuestionMan thanks for saying that! 🤘🔥🧝♀️🌳
Man, the guitar duet at the very end was sublime. 😁

Bloody brilliant start to finish
BEST DIO COVER .... EVER .... huge fan Emily , great job
I love the chemistry and vibe these guys have together. It's like they are actually having fun jamming, and someone happen to catch it on video.
Very nice! Love her voice. I love the transition to the acoustic at the end, too!
A brilliant rendition of a classic! Well done everybody! Emily, your singing was superb, and a nice appearance of the Graziano twins at the end!
thanks - i hope more people stick around for that lol
WOW!!!
Love the transition into the acoustic outtro ......... The sustaining guitar handoff WELL PLAYED!!
Then the acoustic guitar, Just beautiful and brilliantly done..
Respect \m/
Does her own natural echo! Love it!
Thanks man! It's a fun addition to certain songs. 🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻
We all want more from Emily... Please !!
I blooming love this cover. I listen to it over and over. Great voice.
Everything about it is just so spot on.,This is money. Great voice complimented by awesome guitar play. You'll be hard pressed to hear any better
the only thing I would change is the drums
That SG is a freaking great guitar for the genre!! Absolutely amazing!
WOW!!!
What a beautiful Cover..

Love the guitarist too..
Great Going guys!! God Bless You All!!

Emily sure kicks ass on this. Oh yeah, and the rest of you guys nailed it too.
So good! Thank you for introducing us to stellar talent like Emily!
You cats nail that.That is the best cover of heaven and hell I've ever Heard great job.🤘🤘🤘
