Goddamn I miss him. Little dude, big voice, bigger legend. R.I.P Ronnie, thank you.

[@TruthUnderFire]

Dude, I know. I wept when I got the news.

[@PJyrstinkangas]

I'd say the voice was the biggest. He wasn't just a legend, when people witnessed him on stage he lived up and delivered.

[@mazze84]

”This one goes up too 13” I see what you did there! Well done, good sir! Rest in peace, brother

[@serroche]

It's funny how 'Dio' means God in Italian. Never a name was more accurate. R.I.P. LEGEND!!

[@Runescarred]

right?

[@dyr234]

and if you ad an S at the end its god in spanish.

[@baamchannel2049]

@@Runescarred yes...i already google translate

[@xavier4728]

Might be because it's his stage name and that he is of italian descent?

[@w-james9277]

Metal has never been mainstream. It's not about following the trends and appealing to people of all ages. It's meant to resonate with certain people who feel (almost) like they're outcasts. Who want more drama, more aggression, more attitude, good musicianship and something that they can relate to. I think when people say they wish metal was more popular, they actually mean they wish it was more respected. Just my thoughts. EDIT: Great interview with a true icon of the genre. We all miss him very much.

[@gunner799]

Definitely. Metal has an intrinsic sense of “edginess” to it because it is not mainstream and it is different and more intense from what everyone else is listening to

[@towerjunikeka-tet1979]

Metal is a way of life,it's been place to hide,still is,from my childhood to these days (im 30) metal was a shelter from cruel enviroment and evil people,every interest in my life is somehow related to metal,artisticly and philosophical,religiously if you want,im so glad i belong to metal and you wonderful people

[@mikeb4858]

I'm so glad I caught him live on the Heaven and Hell reunion tour. I went to the show because Down and Megadeth were openers, and I carried this "Only Ozzy Sabbath is real Sabbath" attitude into the place. Well holy shitballs was I wrong. Dio CRUSHED it, just blew the doors off the place with his incredible voice. (Geezer and Tony and Vinnie helped, too). Now, don't get me wrong, I love the first 5, but Dio Sabbath is Best Sabbath.

[@Runescarred]

Me too! My wife and I got to see him in Selma, TX. Class act - I remember after the lights went up a lady ran to the stage with a poster and shouting his name. He turned right around, signed it and thanked her. Class. Act. Love Dio. Rest in Power

[@metalwarrior81]

@Mike B I highly suggest you listen to the rest of Black Sabbath's discography as well. Lots of underrated gems after the Mob Rules. If you love the Dio era, you must check out the Tony Martin years. Start with Headless Cross.

[@dyr234]

i love all three sabbath ozzy, Dio and tony martin and the ozzy era is one i grew up with and made the most impact with me, but the dio era black sabbath was just as good. Heaven and Hell and mob roles and even dehumanizer were amazing records and the art is so cool, love the smoking angels playing cards on heaven and hell

[@eddie6198]

Fuck, Down and Megadeth as openers for Dio fronted Sabbath??? Dude that would've been so sick.

[@robwarren6729]

RJD was so articulate and bright. And of course one of the absolute best metal singers of all time. Well done my friend.

[@erikaxelson1725]

Wow, everything that came out of his mouth was pure genius and wise, and still remaining that humble. Horns up!!

[@josh-foss]

Ronnie's thoughts and responses were always so thorough and well spoken. Truly one of the best orators that metal ever had and his vocal talent is the stuff of legend. So much power contained in such a small frame, almost unnaturally so. So very unfortunate to lose him at a relatively age but eternally grateful for the music he made before he left us. Horns up for the man that gave them to us. There will never be another like him \m/

[@alexojeda9048]

Words of Wisdom from The Ambassador of the Metal World. Thank you for this. His thought and words will echo through time for ever. RIP dear friend. \m/

[@elijahloveell8809]

Alex Ojeda Truer words have never been spoken

[@brendantoungate8287]

Obviously Dio's missed by everyone for his talent, but it's his thoughtfulness that is sorely needed in the world. RIP man.

[@desioan5713]

The more interviews I watch of him the more I respect him. Intelligent, insightful, eloquent, sincere, and I can sense that after so many years of dealing with a lot of drunk , unintelligent A-holes that only accept one kind of attitude/music/ spectrum he feels like he has to filter everything that comes out of his mouth. I'm guessing that is his home where the interview takes place. I can picture him listening to opera or jazz, or Eastern music being curious as an artist and as a person about what is going on in the world but, huh, try to explain that to some Neanderthals that were powerful in the Industry. Dio you are missed on all levels

[@applecake122]

He listened to Bach and Beethoven ("Ronnie James Dio - Interview - Hamar, Norway", 5:09).

[@summermcpherson8209]

You're right... for a long time I've said he could have been an amazing opera singer. He would have done a great job playing the role of Prince Calaf in Turandot.

[@baybae92]

One of my favorite documentaries ever made. I was a 12-year-old at the time it came out, and grew up in an evangelical christian household. Introduced me to many great metal bands, including Dio :) Ever grateful.

[@MyFairOne]

Great vocalist. It's sad that he's not alive anymore. Thanks for sharing this interview.

[@benleach2931]

Gone far too soon. May the God of metal rest easy 🤘

[@Runescarred]

Amen

[@alecolson9169]

To me he didn't die, he just went to another real to slay dragons and ride tigers

[@chuckharris2]

I saw DIO in 1986 at MSG! One of the best shows I've ever seen! Muuuuuuch respect! R.I.P.

[@martinolopezcastro9739]

I almost cryed, loved him so much

[@directive-4]

What a beautiful soul!! May he rests in peace \m/

[@iainholmes2735]

A real gentleman.

[@DanasLilMakeup]

I still find it so tough to realise that he has been gone for nearly a decade, he understood metal music like no other, he was someone that could talk to you about anything related to it without sounding like an asshole trying to lecture you how to be “trve”. I wish a lot of musicians could learn that from him, him who gave this fantastic music genre so much and that will keep giving much even after his death. I will make sure my future kids know his art and respect the music the way he did. Rock on Ronnie, keep inspiring us from wherever you are!

[@jeffjfindley4802]

Wow. Thank you, RJD, for all you did for us!

[@MarislavaBermann]

What a pleasure to watch this, love Dio's thoughtful answers and musical instrument behind him:)

[@sepsissband]

Huge inspiration for me . Dio is from my city . We would love to have a statue or memorial

[@danfitzpatrick8517]

Its 2020, and i cant help but wonder the opinions this man would hold in this current day in age.

[@user-oo8zt1sc1c]

You see how he is sharp-minded. A very respectable gentleman. RIP RJD.

[@TruthUnderFire]

The Godfather Of Metal. Ozzy may be the Prince Of Darkness, but Dio is the Godfather Of Metal.

[@luisernestomorales753]

I love listening to his voice and his opinions are just amazingly well crafted

[@TeamMontrealMetal]

I could listen for hours what Ronnie have in mind and what to say. Love his humour, his way of thinking and his philosophy. He's greatly missed for sure...

[@fsava6324]

Dio telling it how it is! Straight to the point, a true showman! 🤘

[@brockfamchan3211]

Man, man, man, thought this was going to be like an hour, uncut/raw... Ya know... All of it, lol. ❤️ thanks for sharing Banger!! We all miss Dio. That Ronnie boy was special

[@billcowan5539]

Big Heart , great voice ! One of the best ever. I’m so glad I got to see him multiple times back in the 80s , One of the best shows ever. I truly miss this man. Metal hasn’t been the same without him.

[@thecontrarians2438]

Great Interview, I remember watching this when it came out. Legend! Thanks!

[@awkwardsean5141]

The man was a fountain of wisdom.

[@arispanagiotopoulos2533]

Immortal words of wisdom from Ronnie.

[@ivanyunakov8154]

Ronnie James Dio was great singer!

[@danaouellette5537]

Thank you for uploading this. Dio is a good. :(

[@anthonymanuel2911]

Thank you for this man. Always great to hear the thoughts of such a great mind. \m/ Praise Dio! \m/

[@quentinheard1165]

There has always been a code of honor ( most of the time) with metal heads to have respect to the next person in the crowd, sometimes you get an asshole that wants to pick fights, but ive been to concerts, where the people around me have fun and get out there agressions, without beating the hell out of people

[@Weedeater58]

It's all about the heavy and sensible aggression. The king has spoken!

[@Le-Big-Makke]

Fucking legend.

[@user-wp2bx7ov6k]

Низкий поклон за любимого Роннечку!!!!❤❤❤

[@chestbuster1987]

One of the greats..

[@DennisTrovato]

This man should have never died.

[@JohnRSrlie]

Hes here, hes just not walking among us anymoore, Legends don`t die

[@arnandhoharra4878]

🤘... DIO...

[@Reddogsociety67]

RJD= Italian Bad Ass!!

[@baldgaming6204]

RJD= Italian God

[@delphinbringsby6768]

I sure miss this man and his music. Would have enjoyed a pint or two with him. Long may he live on.

[@witchywoman165]

He was the best, a very smart and very talented man. RIP, God Of Metal.

[@Vibeagain]

The consummate metal gentleman. Oh and that voice ...

[@mikew3494]

R.I.P. Ronnie.... ♥️

[@inoneo8252]

I was just listening to Lock up the wolves earlier now this video pops up 🤘

[@applecake122]

He enjoyed listening to Bach and Beethoven ("Ronnie James Dio - Interview - Hamar, Norway", 5:09).

[@nataliabarbosa9]

Love you and miss you Ronnie!

[@peterstrianus1790]

He was an happy and in peace man.

[@Staminist-MMF-80]

What a Legend! \m/

[@ViperRose1978]

Class act! And the stage presence he had, there was about 20,000 of us throwing up the horns. He was one of a kind!

[@ericwyatt3646]

Dio was so amazing over his career, but that last album with Sabbath truly brings out what he is talking about in this interview. That "Heaven and Hell" album is unreal. Listen to it again if you have not really gotten into it.

[@garygkc21]

I love you Ronnie!

[@Stemcellactivationpatches2023]

Brilliant interview. RIP RJD

[@carlosalvador3926]

wisdom coming from a truly remarkable person, RJD you are truly misssed

[@rattmouth]

#sensibleaggression - Dio was, and still is, an inspiration.

[@lesliaorue5417]

Thanks for all Mr.Ronnie James Dio...Hail \m/

[@waltz9230]

God damn was this the first time ever the cameraman ever touched a camera lmao

[@dyr234]

wish he was still rockin' today, making some new black sabbath or more of his solo stuff. RIP Dio

[@Davidthestratman7]

R. I.P. Dio! We miss you.

[@user-it2lw4bh2n]

Ronnie i miss you!

[@JCT1926]

Man Ronnie's speaking voice is so cool.

[@MisterPoppy-sc1sj]

legend

[@tangerineblue80]

Dio, funny, gentle man. 💟

[@samtraygis1337]

My dad is a musician. A true well read educated musician so I was lucky enough to be exposed all this great music. It seems like nowadays these manly intelligent guys don't exist like they used to. We have rappers and people who haven't really honed their skills .

[@chuckfriendly]

The best

[@perritosporritos1882]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!

[@nathanvictor7654]

Above all a great man

[@nipulkradmsinatagras8293]

The only guy that I wish to come back from heaven.

[@bcg6760]

Preach it!

[@inquisitor4635]

Wish Ronnie had belted out a terror roar when the clock chimed.

[@samporter7018]

Sucks hes not hear anymore one of the greatest singers ever

[@yannipapadopoulos9531]

Goddamn, 3 of 4 of my favorite musicians are dead RIP Dio

[@MetalPersonJ]

This video should be titled "interview on metal and aggression"

[@sudharsanpaskaran]

🤘🤘🤘

[@tinifothom671]

How many thruths in one interview

[@AlucardsQuest]

I do think there's a lack of musicality in most metal I come across, (certainly there's not much originality) I mean I love thrash and death metal... but it would be refreshing if more bands tried something other than death vocals for both.

[@bryancenterfitt7127]

Being a metal musician isn't easy! It doesn't matter what you play, being a metal musician takes a lot to do. First, it's the love, and secondly, and most importantly is that you need to have the ability and understanding to play heavy music. Ronnie was one hell of a front man, and awesome at telling stories through his music. Too bad he's gone. He also proven that, you could be a short, ugly fucker and still pull a gaggle of ass from hot woman! Just because you are such a badass on the stage! 🤣

[@bosondhiggs5631]

HAIL DIO !!!!

[@sega62s]

up to 13 🍻

the only way it would go away is when the end of the universe but still, the next universe will heed the call aswell

Maiden was probably the last metal band with ethics he mentioned. Didn't mention Metallica who can't sing.

[@sabbath7081]

Ronald James Padavona.

[@carlbrewerii1619]

That clock gonging in the background is like the doomsday clock going off.

[@Hepler-s2b]

Wow 2004! Damn I feel old, and I'm only 33! WTF Banger

RDJ is king. Simple.
