Would like to have heard him sing "Valhalla" from Black Sabbath's "Tyr" when they reunited for "Dehumanizer". The singer on "Tyr" was Tony Martin who was brought in for his resemblance to Dio's singing. Flip the equation and you have a missed-as-fuck opportunity for some good live material. "Headless Cross", "The Shining" and "Valhalla" should have been part of the Dehumanizer" set-list instead going back to "Iron Man", "Paranoid" and "War Pigs".
@@troyevitt2437 I agree. It isn't fair to Tony Martin that he's been written out of sabbath history. However Ozzy fans would have gone nuts without Ironman, Paranoid...
@@AH-nu2py Seems like the Ozzy diehards would have enjoyed hearing him singing Iron Man Paranoid and War Pigs with Zakk Wylde on that No More Tears tour, with Geezer in the touring line up, than Iommi playing 'em with Ronnie James Dio singing. Dio singing that stuff just took us back to "Black 'n' Blue". The craziest thing about that was Dio being on the same tour as Robbie Krieger. Blue Oyster Cult had recorded a cover of Roadhouse Blues ("I Woke Up This Morning and I Couldn't Get Me no Breakfast"-they literally sang that!) and every night, Krieger would come out to throw in with BOC. I know, Right?! As if BOC didn't sound awesome with three guitarists, imagine them with FOUR! With Dehumanizer, Mk-III Sabbath Sabbath had 3 CDs under their belt, Appice being on 2/3rds. They didn't need to do anything but Dio-fronted material, but, like I said, if they had a woody to do any back-catalog, Martin-fronted material would have been perfect. While Ian Gillian was Dio's SUCCESSOR in B/S, creating "Born Again", Tony Martin was Dio's true REPLACEMENT. "Headless Cross" was a shameless callback to the song Heaven and Hell even using the same triplet gallop. I liked the idea Geezer and Tony had of calling the Dio/Appice lineup "Heaven and Hell" vs. "Classic Sabbath" with Ozzy and Bill Ward. (Who is that drummer that handled most of that last Black Sabbath tour?)
Troy Evitt I knew Ronnie my whole adult live. Worked for him on and of. He would not have shared the stage with Ozzy. And Ozzy would not have wanted to really be directly compared to Ronnie. Ozzy is an entertainer, a one trick pony vocally, staying within one octave 99% of the time. Funny story about Tony Martin. He’s a great singer no doubt. We were I think it was in Oklahoma, sometime around ‘95. They had an all day indoor event. Not a festival but bands playing all day. Sabbath was on before Dio with Tony Martin. There was another band between them, if I remember correctly Smashing Pumpkins, don’t quote me on that. Sabbath did their sound check. Whoever it was between them, they were late, so DIO did theirs. Martin who was Ron’s engineer at the time used Sabbath and Tony Martin as a baseline. Ronnie often warmed up with last in line because that song has clean vocals and gets raspy after the intro. He connected his mic and starts singing, the next moment we were all holding our ears screaming for Ronnie to stop. 😂 So I’m still saying Tony Martin is a good singer, but Ronnie was so much more powerful. I still miss him.
I am anger Under pressure Lost it cages A prisoner The first to escape I am wicked I am legion Strength in numbers A lie The number is one [Chorus:] I - I - I Everything that I see is for me Yes, I am giant I'm a monster Breaking windows In houses Buildings of glass Rebel rebel Holy outlaw Ride together Don't try it The power's in one [Chorus:] I - I - I I am standing alone But I can rock you I - I - I On the edge of the blade But the knife can't cut the hero down I am virgin I'm a whore Giving nothing The taker The maker of war I'll smash your face in But with a smile All together You'll never Be stronger than me [Chorus:] I - I - I Right here on my own But I still rock you I - I - I Don't follow behind Just leave me on the outside I - I - I I am standing alone But I can shock you I - I - I On the edge of the blade But no one makes the hero bleed (No, no, no) I am hunger Feed my head All together You'll never Never make the hero bleed (No, no, no)
I've seen dio live 4 times, maiden 5 times, Sabbath 3 times, ozzy 7 times, pantera twice, anthrax 3+ times, been to many a concert and dio will always be one of my favorites. DIO, priest and scorpions are my top 3 concerts. maiden/anthrax was a close fourth.
This was the last concert of Dio I attended. GREAT it was! I was so hopeful I'll see him again as Heaven & Hell this June in Sofia but... R.I.P. Ronnie! You'll be always in my heart and soul!
It pleases me to say , this man is amazing and he is love by so many , he,s not gone . Because his memory will live in me forever and ever, keep on rocking Ronnie.
You know why Dio rules with such unquestionable authority? Take away those Marshall stacks, he's still Dio. That's how. You can never unplug the power of Dio's voice and presence.
@straightme1 Yeah, men, his voice was even stronger!!! I saw him in concert four times, and I had also the incredible luck to meet him twice. As you can imagine, it was the most amazing experience in my life, to meet a God, and at the same time, such a kind human being!!!
Dio the best of all times! his lyrics are very enlighting! long live rock and roll!! Dio lives in us!!! Watch Black Paradox Band videos, a tribute to Black Sabbath Dio and Ozzy!!! 🤘
39 seconds in.. When the main beat starts the thunder from within begins to ROAR those seeking the fight will find heart and to prepaire for WAR!!! Who else feels this strength when they hear this song!? \m/
DIO rules. Period. There is no one like him, never has been, and never will be. He has no equal. Who else could kick ass all the way to the very end BUT Ronnie? The man is a legend! He's always sang about the things I've felt, thought, and believed. His physical vehicle is gone but never his spirit. \m/ \m/
I remember someone put this song up on RUclips but they did the video with sections of Conan the barbarian comics rolling on the screen while this song played over it was the first time I heard it and with the Conan imagery playing over all . Croms teeth it was glorious look it up
@heavy21metal It is I, you, everybody. It is somebody who has recognized his/her real strength and power. Who has recognized that he/she is more than just somebody. More than a human. Who is both a hero and a sinner.
Hey, I like this too. Ronnie is amazing . He is amazing for a man that is in his 60,s and that is telling the young cats what they can do if they put their minds to it and I love this video.
They're making a Dio song out of this. Listen to Ronnie's vocal inflections -- they're lower and more sustained. He performs different for Dio than for Sabbath. I do not usually prefer his live versions, but this is a rare one indeed.
Leticia ,in my opinion 1 is a symbol of selfish evil desire in this song. Legion in the Bible is a band of demons who are exorcised by Jesus. Wicker is a form of sacrifice in ancient Britain. The Lyrics say it all. I am rebel. love the feel of the song. Tyr do a good cover of this song too
yes, wicker was a form of sacrifice that was practiced in great britain and the british isles.if u want to see a good movie about this practice. watch " the wickerman", the original movie with the actor " christopher lee" not the remake with "nicholas cage" is a great movie. the person was placed in a replica of a human made out of wicker. along with other sacrificial animals, etc. then was burned for religious purposes
There was no media. It happened in a medium Southern City in the U.S. It was a routine police matter where nobody was killed or even injured. Just scared SHITLESS. The bastard had the balls to confront me after I showed him and his wife a picture of his stepson at a school his wife said the then 19-year-old never attended. My boss did not appreciate being lied to. The kid had threatened him, shot at him and now his parents were lying for him. We sent them a message. Leave town. They didn't.
some of the greatest lyrics ever written !!!!!!!!
" I " would have to agree.
I agree with this 100%
"I" think the same.
This is the song that brought me to my knees and cried, he was the voice of my generation and he was a true master.
Dio doesn't die, he moves on to Valhalla to rock a even greater stage
Would like to have heard him sing "Valhalla" from Black Sabbath's "Tyr" when they reunited for "Dehumanizer".

oh man...yeah they missed an opportunity.
@@troyevitt2437 I agree. It isn't fair to Tony Martin that he's been written out of sabbath history.

Best one of the Dehumanizer songs. Glad he brought it into his own show!
DIO will forever be missed, a great creator of songs and melodies.
Ronnie at 4:41-4:48 blows me away ever time. An artist he is.
The voice of thunder... RIP Ronnie...
One of my all time favorite Sabbath tracks. Second to none in intensity. Who could balance melody and power like RJD? You are sadly missed.
"No Im a WHore" that line is a classic, I Love Dio.
The awkward moment when Dio says "I'm a giant".
RIP Dio, you are missed.
Dana Tea not awkward for me?
@@lisafury419 Because he was not big physically I guess.
Spiritually and vocally though, less "Gigant" and more "God" if you ask me
A God, correct !
I wonder missy how tall are you and what have you accomplished ?
This gigantic voice keep us here at least.
@@fpostolache it was a joke I made ten years ago haha, also I am short which is why it was fun to me
@@Herebedragons991 good, got your point yet there are good and bad jokes (depends on the audience). Best !
What a fucking badass. One of the all tim greats for sure
What a song, i have no words to describe it, what a voice, Dio was the last of his kind, Doug rocks !
Doug absolutely rocks!....But this is Craig Goldy, who also slays!
We miss you Ronnie.
Definetely in my top 3 Dio era Sabbath songs.
The album of this song is super underrated.
Agree😜
THIS is heavy metal
I am anger
Under pressure
Lost it cages
A prisoner
The first to escape
I am wicked
I am legion
Strength in numbers
A lie
The number is one
[Chorus:]
I - I - I
Everything that I see is for me
Yes, I am giant
I'm a monster
Breaking windows
In houses
Buildings of glass
Rebel rebel
Holy outlaw
Ride together
Don't try it
The power's in one
[Chorus:]
I - I - I
I am standing alone
But I can rock you
I - I - I
On the edge of the blade
But the knife can't cut the hero down
I am virgin
I'm a whore
Giving nothing
The taker
The maker of war
I'll smash your face in
But with a smile
All together
You'll never
Be stronger than me
[Chorus:]
I - I - I
Right here on my own
But I still rock you
I - I - I
Don't follow behind
Just leave me on the outside
I - I - I
I am standing alone
But I can shock you
I - I - I
On the edge of the blade
But no one makes the hero bleed
(No, no, no)
I am hunger
Feed my head
All together
You'll never
Never make the hero bleed
(No, no, no)
All my live heavy metal. From Bs As, Argentina I salute you !
I've seen dio live 4 times, maiden 5 times, Sabbath 3 times, ozzy 7 times, pantera twice, anthrax 3+ times, been to many a concert and dio will always be one of my favorites. DIO, priest and scorpions are my top 3 concerts. maiden/anthrax was a close fourth.
I, I, I, fckn miss you !!!!
And so do "I "
ME TOO..IMMENSELY ❤️
May 16 2019..9 years you’ve been gone My beloved RONNIE JAMES DIO XXXOOO
This was the last concert of Dio I attended. GREAT it was!
I was so hopeful I'll see him again as Heaven & Hell this June in Sofia but...

You'll be always in my heart and soul!
My absolute favorite!
It pleases me to say , this man is amazing and he is love by so many , he,s not gone . Because his memory will live in me forever and ever, keep on rocking Ronnie.
His voices sounds killer here... just as good as the original recording.
The real deal: Heaven and hell
Wacken 2009. “I” ... Iommi, Butler Appice and Dio himself
You know why Dio rules with such unquestionable authority?
Take away those Marshall stacks, he's still Dio. That's how. You can never unplug the power of Dio's voice and presence.
OK FOLKS..IF IT IS EVEN POSSIBLE..THIS RIGHT HERE IS MY VERY MOST FAVORITE!!! THE POWER’S IN ONE 💋
@straightme1 Yeah, men, his voice was even stronger!!! I saw him in concert four times, and I had also the incredible luck to meet him twice. As you can imagine, it was the most amazing experience in my life, to meet a God, and at the same time, such a kind human being!!!

Ronnie James Dio lives forever! His music is eternal. The voice of metal.
Awesome!!!
Hey, I like this too. Ronnie is amazing . He is amazing for a man that is in his 60,s and that is telling the young cats what they can do if they put their minds to it and I love this video.
I’m standing alone but I can rock you!

Epic!
He is a Legend.
Ronnie you are a giant ❤️
@heavy21metal well said some of the best lines ever written right there!
This is his best song from his first Black Sabb reunion. This goes good with coffee at 0045
wish that i had been went to this concert instead of metallica :(
Iommi play's with soul this kick ass song and Dio there's nothing much to say DIO IS THE BEST
It was I, Dio
Artist👏👏👏
I love you Ronnie Dio
O maior de todos
Wish there was a sabbath/heaven and hell version of this song in this quality
Simplemente hermoso 🤘
Doug kicks asses !!
Great video...:-D
R.I.P DIO

I do not usually prefer his live versions, but this is a rare one indeed.
no, this song is from the Dehumanizer LP from 1992
HOLY FUCK!!!! The guitar player KICKS ASS on Tony's solo!!!!
DIO IS THE KING OF FUCKING HEAVY METAL!!!! \m/ \m/
I love this song so much that I have to hear it on Q and thats for sure bet everyday.
@RandyOLeary You're right, he's just playing power chords, and it weakens the riff. But Ronnie totally owned this performance anyway.
تمام خوانندگان دنیا در مقابل استاد باید زانو بزنن دیو سلطان👑💪💪💪👌

"Dio, can you hear me? I am so lost and alone."
THE POWERS IN ONE! 💋 RJD
I, I, I, ME AND YOU, WE ARE ALL
R.I.P. Ronni James Dio.
Eston is a masterpiece that madness !!!
Tuned to C sharp (A step and a half down), I think. Heaven and Hell plays in that tuning, and this sounds a hell of a lot like that.
