Dio used to say that the lyrics are vague for the purpose of his fantasy character Holy Diver. I believe he played D&D on the side for sure. His bandmates said he wrote it late in production, that even he didn’t know what he was writing perhaps. Later on, maybe towards the later end of his life, he said it was about a Christ-like figure who came down to save a planet, but it’s inhabitants misunderstood his intentions and wanted Him to stay, He told them that he needed to save others worlds too and it unsettled them. [end of paraphrase, on to my interpretation] Perhaps they wanted Him to be their king, perhaps they did not understand He needed to die for all worlds. He needed to die for all worlds, something in the black and blue was stalking Him, at first to tempt, then to kill perhaps. I believe the narrator would be God the Father in this case. Jesus being the Holy Diver who left heaven down through the midnight sea of the universe, but he could not stay for long, and the knowledge of His Son’s needed fate gave Him the thought “What is becoming of me.” Christ is also The Tiger, powerful beyond measure,if you make peace/ride with Him you see his nature is clean, if you jump/resist Him you see His heart is holding back wrath. - We know that Ronnie stuggled with his Catholic upbringing, something tells me part of his atheist heart wanted the story to be real and these lyrics are a manifestation of that. My hope is that he reconciled with Christ before he passed beyond the firmament.
I love this era of lyric video, where they all show the lyrics about 2 seconds too late lol
It's the best way to not spoil lyrics I love it unironically
It is literally showing them as soon as he starts the lines so um
..perfect bro
Yeah, there's no lag bro. It's synched dead on.
@@mrmojomajestic8317 it’s synced with a fade. Meaning if one doesn’t know the lyrics they won’t be able to sing along

Reminder that DIO's stand looks like a holy diver
Does it?
He could have titled it Holy Butt Plug and it wouldn't make any difference at all. Total joke.
@@philstith5202 😆
Anisai has the holy diver tho
I have literally seen hundreds of concerts since 1980 and I have to say hands down that he was probably one of the best concerts I have ever seen!
His lyrics make you think I love it!
Mmm hmm
Yeah, yeah
Holy diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh, what's becoming of me?
Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh, don't you see what I mean?
Gotta get away
Holy diver, yeah
Got shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you, look out
Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'til you see the light
Oh, we will pray it's alright
Gotta get away, get away
Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel, yeah
The vision never dies
Life's a never ending wheel, say
Holy diver
You're the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid, jump, jump
Jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he's mean
Some light can never be seen, yeah
Holy diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh, what's becoming of me? No, no
Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh, don't you see what I mean?
Gotta get away, get away
Gotta get away, get away, yeah
Holy diver, sole survivor
You're the one who's clean
Holy diver, holy diver
There's a cat in the blue
Coming after you, holy diver
Oh, holy diver, yeah, alright
Get away, get away, get away
Holy diver, holy diver, oh holy diver, oh ooh
You know when the video quality is shit the song will hit different on so many different levels

I love this song, I remember first hearing it on Vice City on PlayStation 2 haha, but such a brilliant song
Dio is a legend...top one world...
No, he's on top of THE WORLD, while time stands still.
@@AntWithAHat i am pretty sure he said that without the intention to reference jojo bro XD
If there's such a thing as a legendary douche bag, then yeah, he's legendary.
@@AntWithAHat not sure if jojo reference or a stargazer reference
truly....cant deny what music is about .....every knee shall bow before the Lord....some just know how to say it....
the best vocalist in rock history bar none!!!!!!!!!!!!
What about Freddie Mercury?
Pra mim, uma das maiores obras de arte do Rock!
Happy bday Mr Dio sir
Great song、strong vocal‼️
Best Dio album
Stay out of my yard though
Dio..... now that IS Kick Ass Music!!! 😎✌️☮️✝️🤗
I love this song but I wish I can find it without the minute and half long build up of wind noise
That’s part of the song man. It’s a story
Just awsome
NICE RECORDING, BUMP UP.
I come here for a GUARANTEED good time!🤘😎🤘
Baddest song ever!!!! 👍☝️🔥🔥🔥🔥
I seen him in San Antonio Texas he stole the show and when Maiden came out after a few songs I started a chant Dio Dio Dio Dio Dio he was awesome

Legendary to crayon-eating, window licking, short bus passengers.

This guy was a step above. Black Sabbath without Dio is a fucking joke
Dio was a sad fucking joke. Holy Diver? Give me a break. Are you in middle school or what?
I love some Dio, but you must be trolling.... THe greatest and original Black Sabbath is fcking Ozzy. OG
