Ok, soo basically- this song is about this group of people who have been enslaved in the desert by a powerful wizard for generations just so they can build him a Tower that goes to the sky so he can fly across the stars... "In the heat and rain, with whips and chains, to see him fly, so many died, we built a tower of stone, with our flesh and bones-" And despite all that, when the tower is done and he jumps from the top, he falls down to the ground instead of soaring, so all they can feel is despair. Despite how much pain he put them through, the last thing they still had was the hope that their sacrifice wouldn't be in vain... And when he died, that hope died too. Even so, they gotta move on... As dark as it looks, there's a rainbow rising... :)

This song... not only is it musically one of the best heavy metal songs of the 70's, the lyrics have a deep meaning bearing a stark warning. On the face of it, the song is about a wizard who has enchanted and enslaved people to build him a tower to the stars so that he can fly, only to have his attempt fail catastrophically and for them to watch him plummet to his death, breaking the spell. But Dio himself said that this was really just a metaphor, and that it really describes any group of people who fall under the spell of a charismatic demagogue, suffering to help them achieve their doomed vision, only to be lost when it inevitably falls to ruin. "A Light In The Black" is about those people trying to find their way back to what they lost after they followed "the wizard".

It is a story you would tell children because it is about something horrible. A megalomaniac wizard enslaves or entices people including the narrator to build him a Babel-like tower so he can fly to the stars. Through all their suffering they keep the spirit by imagining how great it will be to actually see the wizard fly at the end- they are a part of something amazing, however brutal the conditions are. In the end, the wizard si ply falls to his death because he does not really have the ability to magically fly to the stars. The narrator then bemoans how pointless the toil was. The wizard was a vain fool who paid for his arrogance with his life after believing his own BS. The slaves were weak fools for suffering for the goals of a vain fool and paid for it with their long suffering. Don't be the wizard and dont be a slave to the wizard.

@@neillenet291 I always thought some of his lyrics were a bit trite on his solo stuff.” Rainbow in the Dark” was a great song, but I find the lyrics kinda “corny”? It was cool when I 15, but as an adult,it’s a little silly. Then there was “Running with the Wolfpack “. Just silly. I think his best music was with Rainbow and Sabbath, when others chose the songs he sang.Don’t get me wrong, I am a Dio fan, but his contemporaries like Ozzy’s and Iron Maiden and even Judas Priest all had clever and profound lyrics. Think of Crazy Train and Over the Mountain or Diary of a Mad Man. Iron Maiden also has great lyrics that tell a tale. I am not really sure who wrote for Dio, if not himself, but he chose them. And they were often weak, fortunately, his voice was one of the greatest. That is just my opinion…Happy Holidays

That IS the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra who played with them during this song. The video you watched is the studio recording, like ALL Dio songs, he's far BETTER live. You guys HAVE to check out some LIVE Dio circa 1970's, 1980's and 1990's, then go to his 2000+ years when he was in his 60's and STILL better than anyone else out there. Check out Rainbow 'Mistreated' LIVE in Munich 1977. It's from the same concert, but it's actually LIVE. AND check out Dio singing Ozzy era Sabbath songs. Type in Dio-War Pigs and you'll see how that song is supposed to be performed!!

'Mistreated" Munich concert is Dio's best performance. "Catch the Rainbow" is a close second.

Rainbow is fantastic, been listening to them for ages now. Nice to see people enjoying these classics. Found something you may not have heard and don't seem to have covered. Little change of pace to catch your breath after listening to Rainbow. Check out Toney Carey, "A fine, Fine Day" and " I Can Stop the World" from their Some Tough City Album.

This is the band that got me into Metal in the 70`s. Rip Ronnie James Dio and Cozy Powell. Any Rainbow song is good with me.

Yeah, back in the days we made music - gave a song some time, let it grow. What´s on radio today is something else... RIP Ronnie! One of the best singers I have ever heard. Brad & Lex: Love ya!

This is definitely my favorite Dio vocal. I always thought that this song was about the building of the pyramids, and the Alien connection with that. Imo

A very mystical magical song and with Ronnie singing yeah you get transported to another time and place. This song takes me to a time long ago. Like the sorcery days...and also to space.

born in 66 my first Vinyl had been 'ABBA Best of', the second was Rainbow's Rising ! From that moment on I knew where my heart belongs to. I'm living this since over 40 yrs., my first tattoo was a DIO tattoo and I'll never ever gonna quit this music. Looking what our day's teenagers listening to, calling it MUSIC, I'd like to spit my freakin guts out. RJD is the best singer that ever walked the earth, he's the mystic man, the messiah, and as his name says: GOD ! HE LIVED ROCK N' ROLL, HE IS ROCK N' ROLL ! Til the end of days. In 84 I had a real bad motorcycle crash, ended up in coma for about 2 weeks. My parents were sitting beside my bed in hospital, playing Dio from a tape recorder, and his made me waking up again ! None of the doctors believed in that happening. Die sind vom Glauben abgefallen :-) And somehow I'm proud he's native Italian, because I live in a country damn close to bella Italia, . . . Germany. Baron, PEP Cars US Car club Frankfurt, Germany PS: hell, listening to this song brings back so many memories

The late Cozy Powell was such a menace on the drum kit! Hung out with bassist Jimmy Bain for a night about 10 years ago and heard a lot of cool stories 1st hand. Another one gone too soon...

Thank you for once again allowing the God Of Metal Singers to breathe again. It is wonderful to have this played and sung about. Dio has been and will always be one of my favorites forever. If you want to check out another Rainbow Song check out Gates of Babylon. Also one of the greatest guitarists ever, Richie Blackmore.

The final 2 minutes are very intense. With Ronnie pouring out his sole and the band and the orchestra backing him up. Very powerful.

I hear some harmomic minor scales notes in this. That is what gives it and Eastern sound. But the guitarist is Ritchie Blackmore. He was the guitarist in Deep Purple and founded Rainbow after leaving that band. But this song can be a warning about not following false prophets!

New Channel fan here, love it! I'd suggest Rainbow, "mistreated" live in Munich, such an awesome song, the bass, drums, guitar, vocals all so good; you will NOT be disappointed.
