Emily would sound very beautiful singing this song I love her voice

[@davidthoreau9499]

Queensryche. Iron Maiden. Dio...you guys absolutely ROCK!!!

[@anthonyfesta1224]

Great vocals. Great everything!

[@RA-uj3nm]

Found this randomly......" Amazing " doesn't even start to describe all this talent!

[@thundervee]

I’m sure Dio would be honored by this! Good job!!

[@Bragheto]

2019! Coming back, since 2015! Great Job!!!

[@fjn667]

One of the best Holy Diver cover i ever heard. This one should have been on the Ronnie James Dio tribute album.

[@tuncay5506]

Fredrik Johansson Better than Killswitch Engage’s one :D

[@sabermoon5393]

That's Blue Oyster Cult's Richie Castellano on guitar and vocals, with the boss bass of BOC's Danny Miranda. Real pros. So badass.

[@rockyvin6583]

Really impressed with this cover... everything was simply to the perfection...

[@shreddder999]

Wow!

[@troyhammond3494]

Not sure why I have just discovered THIS version of this classic song. Suddenly, My pants are a bit more snug. Ronny would be PROUD of this cover. Damn Richie - you really are " The Man " Well done sir !!!! The fact Danny Miranda is slamming the bass makes this EVEN MORE AWESOME !!!

[@egidiofioravanti634]

fantastic song great Ronnie james Dio R.i.p.

[@corybangerter5845]

The bassist totally NAILS the thumping bass line of this Dio classic. Ronnie would be pleased. The vocals are crisp and professional (laughing aside) as usual. Outstanding effort fella.

[@icommentonreactions1619]

I love how much fun they have and still slay the fuck out of every song

[@adriannorris1486]

The laugh is because they enjoy what they do so much, when it all comes together like this they’re very happy! That’s what makes this band so brilliant.

[@jasonbryant.bassguitarplay3641]

It's a super fun line to thump.. not difficult and you can add your own touch and abuse the song.

[@blablub690]

I guess Danny would nail almost everything on bass, just listen a bit to what he has done in many other projects. Besides that Holy Diver is very easy to play, something to start playing bass with..

[@MzuMzu-nx1em]

Ronnie j. Dio forever, great cover , keep going , ronnie j. Dio would be proud

[@seansimpson3733]

Totally. Great. Very. Tight. Impressed by all. Vocalist. Pulling double duty. Good stuff

[@erwinbenally8027]

[@amador84]

It sounds great, you should do a Holly Diver´s version with Emily Naccio on vocals.

[@johnunderwood3132]

Is she the one who did Heaven n Hell

[@amador84]

@@johnunderwood3132 Yes, she is, her name is Emily Naccio, she's Richie Castellano's sister in law, I think she's amazing.

[@nikolaynikolov2136]

She is very good, BUT Mike Tirelli is the MAN! Believe me!

[@nikolaynikolov2136]

This is a wonderful holy diver cover that I have listened to so far. What a magnificient performance. I would like to be in there while you are performing the song.

[@williamheckman4597]

That. Rocked.

[@presto111man]

I have watched all of these and they are great. One thing that stands out that surprised me, is that Richie has a great voice. Not just anyone can pull off RJD. I knew when I saw the song title that you would be doing the hand sign at the end! Great job!
