Lzzy has a true DIO voice. Even before they covered anything of his, she sounded (and still sounds) like she could be Ronnie's daughter. One of the reasons I absolutely love Halestorm
I never thought a woman would be able to do a Dio song justice, but this was freaking awesome! That drummer had me cracking up through most of the video.
All you clowns saying this sucks are insane, I have been a DIO fan since day 1 back to Elf....and she does a great job capturing the spirit of our fallen HERO! GREAT JOB! ROCK!
Ok, I didn't know this band. However, after getting DIO's tribute album "This Is Your Life", I discovered Halestorm as they covered this song. I really enjoyed the cover they performed for the album and, after having watched this vid, I must admit that Lzzy sounds the same live as she sounds in the studio. BTW, her voice mesmerized me. It's simply AWE-SOME. She's the best female rock singer I've ever heard.
When Dio recorded that song, the band Dio was way more than just RJD and some backing musicians, it was hands down one of the greatest metal bands ever, with Vivan Campbell on guitar, Jimmy Bain on bass, and the great Vinny Appice on drums. Any band that wants to cover that early version of Dio has big shoes to fill. Vinny Appice alone is a fucking drum machine god thing. Hale's got the voice for it, no doubt.
Mike Couture I agree as well. Lizzie's voice is GREAT and her guitar is good. But like Jimi Hendrix, the backing band, just cant keep up with the talent..... In my opinion....I know Dio like.... well... like my own ballsack and the backing musicians are not holding a candle to the original.... however it IS a high bar to hurtle, Dio being who He was and all.... she does pretty good!
I completely disagree. The talents of the 70s-80s was great - you know when this job required actually required talent. We need LZZY & Co now more than ever with all these trash artists floating around.
Should would have but she’s killing it now so that’s what important….even more so now than ever…we need more REAL musicians with the passion for rock like Lizzy and this band has.
I will see you a the Fillmore in new Orleans on Wednesday night of 28 of Sep 22 on my birthday I would love to here this tune live !! Long live RJ DIO.
I hope that they put out a live DVD with this song on it. I haven't been this impressed since hearing some of Jorn's covers. This makes me hopeful for the future.
She preformed this with that American idol winner in Asheville NC a couple days and OMG... Amazing sight to see. She outsang him in my opinion, and he was GOOD. She has an amazing voice.
Even as prejudiced as I am when I hear someone covering Dio tracks I admit she did good the lead guitar was lack but hey its a cover. Her own stuff now she Rocks.
I had an opportunity to see this show and debated whether to go. Kewanee is a tiny town just 40 min. from my home and the rumor was Lizzy was friends with someone living in Kewanee. It is the location that does not belong on their tour. Obviously, I regret my decision to not go.
GREAT cover. Incredible vocals, SICK drummer, bassist killed it, right in the pocket. Lead guitar left me wanting a little, but still pulled his weight, for sure. Overall, just a great cover.
Arejay has just as much creative control over the band as Lzzy does. Lzzy gets the attention because she's hot and has that voice, but the band would be absolutely nowhere without Arejay's very underrated drumming.
Lzzy as always awesome and I swear I love watching Arejay on drums he just goes OFF, i dont think anyone enjoys playing their instrument more then he does,

She can match the power of RJD's voice. No mean feat.
She gets it!

GREAT JOB! ROCK!
It's just the audio is all fucked up, it was probably 10 times better sounding live.
AMEN BROTHER!! VERY FEW FRONTMEN, PAST OR PRESENT, COULD EVEN HOLD A CANDLE TO LZZY
he is not a fallen hero dumbfuck. he just died. this is awful. 51 been rjd fan since i could walk and this is just awful.
@@Platiumhits123 I agree, their audio is off, if that was better or unplugged, this would be kick ass.
They can't even play the main riff right, I agree that her vocals sound awesome, the drums are ok...ish, but the guitars sound like guitar pro
Such a sweet lady with a big love for Dio. Best female pipes in metal.
Halestorm was last band to perform live together with him before he was diagnosed ! So I think it means a lot to Lzzy and Arjay!c
im sure it means just as much to Joe and Josh... but yes i think their lives would have been different if they hadn't played with him
Best Female pipes in Metal ? LMFAO listen to Angela Nathalie Gossow
👍🤘🤘🤘🤘
Bridie Shaw in this moment has some good music, check them out
FANtastic...what carismatic voice this Lady has, the Band is on point and DIO would be proud!
Damn Lizzy has a killer voice and the band brought it for this one great cover.

Same here...!!! Totally agree....!!
Rune Kitte
Well, it seems that now we're two haha. I mean, I'm not gonna get their records but I admit that this girl is a big shot.
I fell in love too :-)
Rune Kitte
Haha! Cheers!
you are so right. Her voice is amazing and this tribute is fantastic.
The best version cover, wonderbestfull and all all all all !!!
This cover gets better EVERY time I watch it. Here's to you Ronnie !! Lzzy Fu*kin ROCKS !!!

I agree. Vivian Campbell wouldn't be impressed with the guitars on this cover version, but the vocals are on par with Ronnie

Paganguy1 Mitch Mitchell could keep up with anyone!
Managed to make one of the heaviest riffs of all time sound soft lmao
Truth.
cant stop watching these magnetic band
Lizzy has got some SERIOUS PIPES!! Truly a GREAT tribute to one of the best metal singers of all time!! HAILSTORM ROCKS!! 🤘😎🤘
I will be seeing y'all in September 28 ,2022 at the Fillmore in New Orleans, for the very first time, DIO lives in you !
This is the future of great music..love this band. .and they are busting ass to be on top...thank you Halestorm.
Holy shit this is incredible! I hope this group is still out there... best version of this song.
Can't stop listening/watching this song. She's so magnificent
DAMN!!!! This is AWESOME!!! You guys totally nailed it!!!!! And Lzzy totally channels RJD!!!! I'm sure Ronnie is somewhere smiling!!!!
Just saw her in concert and it was phenomenal! Incredible voice! I was literally blown away!
She actually has the perfect voice for Dio songs. Loving the two guitar attack.
She should have been born 20 or 30 years earlier. She would have killed it in the 80s.
Killing it now. Won almost every award a band can win and honestly one of the best bands I've ever seen live.
I completely disagree. The talents of the 70s-80s was great - you know when this job required actually required talent. We need LZZY & Co now more than ever with all these trash artists floating around.
I just disagree 'cause today we don't have many singers killing like her is doing. She is kiling right now!
Nope...she is right where she needs to be ✌🏼
Should would have but she’s killing it now so that’s what important….even more so now than ever…we need more REAL musicians with the passion for rock like Lizzy and this band has.
The drummer.... just wow. So much energie
Every time when i'm sad, i'm come back to this video...
Awsome, for live recording, would love too have been there
~Beyond exceptional!~
Lzzy's voice knocks me down and then it knocks out! I'm officially hooked on Halestorm...
\\M//
Great rendition. Captured the spirit of the song.
That voice is incredible!
Holy sh*t she NAILED it!!!!
MANY drums were harmed in the making of this video. And they loved every single second of it!!!
I kind of wish she sang like that all time. That little bit of extra grit sounds fantastic.
the is so cool, she sings so great, she plays guitarr so good and piano, very good!! she rocks!
Greetings from Brazil! This Drummer pounds likea beast !!!Great!
damn man what a voice !!!! OMG it is awesome !!!!
Wow she Nails it! Whole new respect for Lizzy now.
Dio RIP we know your watching this smiling while torturing satan
Ronnie is smiling ear to ear on this nobody can touch her
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
This is SO much better than the album version!
Damn I think I’m in LOVE! A beautiful woman singing one of my all time favorite songs!!!!
Hellstorm, this is my favorite Dio song. You guys did a great job.
Halestorm unless that's a predicitive . Lzzy and Arjay Hale
I will see you a the Fillmore in new Orleans on Wednesday night of 28 of Sep 22 on my birthday I would love to here this tune live !! Long live RJ DIO.
She sounds amazing and natural with no artificial effects and hits his notes perfect
Amazing tribute, love the power in her voice. and all hail ronnie james...
Great tribute..... did an awesome job...lizzy with hair rocks .
Badass drummer!!
The dude on drums took things to another level. Keep him.
I hope that they put out a live DVD with this song on it. I haven't been this impressed since hearing some of Jorn's covers. This makes me hopeful for the future.
+Marc Rice My thoughts exactly! Best rock band to come along in years....
+Marc Rice - I would love an album with cover songs from halestorm :D
+Aaron Labertew They have 2 albums of cover songs. Reanimate and Reanimate2
I would like to hear her sing Last in Line....Rip RJD♡
I love Dio and Halestorm are amazing so is Lzzy, keep rocking, you are absolutell great!
That's awesome you rock
I love her!!!
I love the power of her voice. The band is great too.

Ronnie James Dio is Smiling from the Heavens watching this band do justice to Metal. 🤘
Love Halestorm doing this song Justice. Dio listening and loving it. Miss him all the time. Rest in Love to the best Metal Vocalist. 🤘

Great stuff, hot performance. Just carry on. Love you.
Oyeah that's awesome RIP ronnie

Her voice is amazing
Lzzy's voice is that poweful, it never comes across well on TH-cam! Saw her live supporting Alter Bridge. She totally nailed every note of every song!
Lizzy Holy Fuckin Shit.!! R.I.P the godfather Ronnie James DIO
RIGHT YA
@@MarkSchlittenhartyes sir
Es una excelete interprete...la amooo
Love this whole band but i must say the Drummer is 100% killer.
arejay is a god
He's the guy who played Animal from The Muppets :D
Check out Zoltran Cheney from Slaughter & Vince Neil's band, Which essentially is Slaughter featuring Vince Neil...lol
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk, yes, he's the guy, kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
yep Lizzy is amazing but the rest of the band needs more credit
She is absolutely incredible! Love
She preformed this with that American idol winner in Asheville NC a couple days and OMG... Amazing sight to see. She outsang him in my opinion, and he was GOOD. She has an amazing voice.
No that's where ur wrong no one out songs dio that's blasphemy
"She preformed with the AMERICAN IDOL WINNER..... she OUTSANG HIM in my opinion." c'mon dude
What a voice. She rocks
What a voice, this is sooooo sweeeettt!
Oh my God. I would’ve given anything to hear Lzzy and Ronnie sing together.
she has genuine passion for what she does
Awesome Quality Jmbgtr was there also 4th row of people back couldnt get that Quality on Phone Thanks for this!!!!!!
She does great job
Oh dear god, yes!!!
DIO was the man.
Awesome cover wicked vocals
Even as prejudiced as I am when I hear someone covering Dio tracks I admit she did good the lead guitar was lack but hey its a cover. Her own stuff now she Rocks.
Amazing
This is the last word in female rock singers right here.
I had an opportunity to see this show and debated whether to go. Kewanee is a tiny town just 40 min. from my home and the rumor was Lizzy was friends with someone living in Kewanee. It is the location that does not belong on their tour. Obviously, I regret my decision to not go.
I really love this cover!
This is fucking amazing. I don't have words. Seriously.
Favorite Dio song and she rocks it
Jesus, Lzzy's voice could lure sirens to their deaths. SUBLIME.
sweetest cover on planet earth!! N Loving memory of RJD 4ever
GREAT cover. Incredible vocals, SICK drummer, bassist killed it, right in the pocket. Lead guitar left me wanting a little, but still pulled his weight, for sure. Overall, just a great cover.
MIND BLOWING! !
Great cover!
I gotta see these guys (and gal) live. They are f'ing awesome, balls out rockers, don't see that much anymore.
the best. thank you.
Arejay has just as much creative control over the band as Lzzy does. Lzzy gets the attention because she's hot and has that voice, but the band would be absolutely nowhere without Arejay's very underrated drumming.
this actually brought tears to my eyes... R.J.D. is definitely happy with this little girl.
Good job!!
Love how the drummers just going for it, and the bassist and guitarist are like "Yeah...you...you do that...thing"
Lzzy is amazing!!
I wish there was a better recording of this somewhere.
Drummer having the time of his life
Great cover the King of Rock n Roll is looking up at you or down on you HEAVEN AND HELL!
Never liked their music but holy shit she can really sing.
this woman is crazy!!!!!!!!!!!! freakin awesome!!!!
I still listen to DIO to this day/maybe tomorrow yeah
Love her voice, just wish they'd play the fucking riff even close to right.
Yeah... wow... pretty bad...
I agree. Not happy with the tone of the guitar. Other than that, love her voice
Exactly. Its not fuckin rocket science after all.
9 years later, I'd just like to add that doing the drum into remotely close would've been nice too.
Lzzy as always awesome and I swear I love watching Arejay on drums he just goes OFF, i dont think anyone enjoys playing their instrument more then he does,
she should do more dio covers
