Well, what is there to say? This man is my personal favorite Traditional Metal singer, and definitely at the top for favorite singer. I love all of the works I have heard from him, from Rainbow to Black Sabbath to Dio. I am a big fan. I still have a lot of listening to do though, but I intend to. Any fans?
By the way, I loved that little video he did with Tenacious D. Funny stuff.

Dio is one of my fauvorite singers, his works in Rainbow and Black Sabbath are great and his own band has classics like Holy Diver and The Last in Line. Don't talk to strangers.

great singer, the new album 'masters of the moon' is pretty good, the first track 'one more for the road' is absolutely brilliant but the rest of the album sort of goes downhill from there.

Dio's music owns! His solo stuff I mean, i don't like his '70's stuff with the other bands. I don't think he is over the top awesome like how many people think, but he has that old-school vibe I think his music is fun. My dad cannot stand Dio though! it's so funny!

I remember the first time i ever heard Dio, it blew my mind. It instantly became my favourite band besides Iron Maiden. Then i thought, hang on a sec, isn't he the guy from Rainbow? So i got out all the Rainbow records in my house and now i love that too. He's an excellent singer and songwriter who DOESN'T have a big ego and i hope he keeps making more great songs. Holy Diver -

Dio is my favorite vocalist. His stuff with Sabbath was amazing. His solo stuff rocks pretty hard too.

Written by Guest on 05.03.2008 at 00:27 Does your dad hate everything Dio did or just in Black Sabbath? Because for me I love Ozzy (both solo and IN Black Sabbath) and love Dio (in Elf, Rainbow, with Roger Glover, and solo) but I DESPISE/HATE 90% of the stuff he did with Black Sabbath (especially that horrendous song Heaven & Hell, that song would have worked as a Rainbow song but NOT, I repeat, NOT, as a Black Sabbath song)

@Marcel H. : Well my dad's more of a classic rocker than a metalhead, and doesn't care for the '80's.........It's mostly the Black Sabbath stuff what makes him not like Dio because that was his favourite band when he was a teenager and he feels that Dio was a terrible replacement and so on.

Account deleted Written by Guest on 27.01.2007 at 01:44 i actually find ronnie james dio to have a really big ego because of the things he says there is an interview where someone asks him what he thinks of bruce dickinson and ronnie said i'm pretty sure i'm bruce's idol. and before he left black sabbath he said no one tells me what to do because i am the best. i [personally think dickinson, halford, ozzy and a few others are better than dio imo.

20.06.2009 - 07:50 Written by Dangerboner on 17.08.2008 at 06:09 Some of his stage banter is even more lame. On the live Heaven & Hell album when introducing "The Devil Cried" is almost as sweet. "This song is called the devil crrried, boo-bloody-hoo". It doesnt sound lame until you hear him say it.
