Such a great track. The Heaven & Hell album is a classic
If anyone wants to paint or knows where to get a good print of the album cover, please let me know! I've wanted that for years!
You finally got to listen to this masterpiece and Lex, you get it! This was epic for the time because Ozzy had just left Black Sabbath and Dio came over from Rainbow, so none of us knew what to expect. This entire album blew us away and the same for Ozzy's solo album that immediately followed. It ushered in a new era of heavy metal. Spot on and glad you liked it as much as we did when we first heard it :)
@Music yes, we sure were!
At the end when she's iff the couch
We had no idea what we had and the effects it had in our emotional cores as kids coming of age in the late 70's and early 80's. Rush-Moving Pictures, VH-Women and children, AC/DC- Back in Black, Ozzy Osbourne-Blizzard of Ozz, Zepplein-In thru the out door, and Sabbath with Heaven and Hell. We were rebellious degenerates with pent up energy and this music was our emotional release and kept us centered and sane while growing up in a fucked up and insane world.
@@artboylan4539 agreed! Our era definitely had the best music ever and I'm so thankful for that.
Well put brotha.
Ronnie was such a fantastic singer. Not only for his great voice, but also in his delivery of the lyrics. He just gave the words an extra pizazz.
Yeah, he did it with so much conviction and feeling which really made you feel it. I have been a huge fan since the 80´s and i have luckily seen him live several times, the first time in 1987. To me he was the best Metal singer of all time.
@@Stefan- I saw him live only once, with Sabbath on the Heaven and Hell tour in 81. Was always a fan of Sabbath but wasn't sure how I'd like them without Ozzy. That concert made me a believer!
@@centuryrox Cool ! I like all the different era, its a bit like different band almost and in some cases it almost is when it comes to the members. Only Tony Iommi was in all these incarnations of the band, he deserves a lot of credit for creating all this great music and Geezer that wrote almost all of the lyrics for the Ozzy era.
I became a Dio fan in 1988, but I was always a bit more of an Ozzy fan. I did listen to some of his Rainbow songs and knew about Dio's involvement in Sabbath, but I was just more of an Ozzy fan, even up through about 2002 or so. In fact, I only ever saw Dio live twice (Strange Highways tour and Angry Machines tour). Was too young to have gone to the Live Evil tour (1983?).
One of the biggest REGRETS of my life was passing on the opportunity to go see Sabbath on the Dehumanizer tour. At this time, Sabbath was playing the smaller, more intimate venues, which of course makes the experience even more amazing. My brother saw Sabbath twice on that tour. I was an IDIOT for thinking there would be more opportunities to see Dio Sabbath.
Since Dio's passing in 2010 I have become almost obsessed with all things Dio. Yes I still like Ozzy, but Dio is my guy. And can anyone really argue that Dio's voice is not far superior? I don't even say that as a knock on Ozzy. Dio's voice is superior to just about any metal singer out there. R.I.P. RJD. Greatest voice in the history of Metal. 🤘🎸
I love Ozzy and his version of Sabbath but Dio is my guy too, his voice is just made for metal, actually no matter of genre not many can compete with his voice, just the emotions and stories he paint with his voice and words.
Falling off the edge of the World and Sign of the Southern Cross would be great Sabbath songs to hear you cover....
Yeah, certainly two of my favourites of Dio Sabbath.
Lonely is the Word is my favorite Sabbath song with Dio
Sign of the Southern Cross is easily my favorite Dio-era Sabbath song; that majestic riff and the immense sound of the production, which, in my opinion, makes Mob Rules a better album than Heaven and Hell.
4:20 That bass line really brings this song to another level.. “Die Young” would be an awesome one for you guys to check out :)
'Die Young' is my favourite Black Sabbath song. Lex would love Tony Iommi's guitar work on that one...
Die Young is SOOOOOO good. Having said that though, there isn't a bad track on that album. If it wasn't the first Metal album I bought it was very nearly the first, and I still listen to it on the regular 30-odd years later.
420 is always a good time
Die Young is like a perfect metal track for radio. What is it? Three minutes and a half of perfection?
Geezer actually quit the band for a short time in the early stages of writing for this album. Dio played bass and sang with Tony during the writing process for some of the songs. Ummmm, talent on display ?
I LOVE these two. Lex is the type to jump up on the table at a party and rock out playing air guitar with Brad saying "babe get down from there." One is chill while the other is free spirited. Love you guys! Love these reactions to the songs I grew up on.
“When the riff kicks in” is the appropriate phrase.
In an interview, Dio said that Children of the Sea was the first song he and Sabbath composed.
Iommi confirmed too
Yep. The story of how this song came about is well documented. Iommi even talked about it in his autobiography.
Basically, Dio came over to Tony's house (might have been a party, can't recall), and the guys wound up in Tony's studio. Tony played this riff he was working on, and asked Dio if he thought he could do anything with it. Dio responded something to the effect of "Give me a few minutes and let me see what I can come up with". Dio sits down at a table over in the corner of the room with a pen & paper, and 20 minutes later he has what would essentially become "Children of the Sea". It was the very first song Dio wrote with Black Sabbath.
Couple of things I find interesting...
1. Tony has said that they were working on this song unsuccessfully with Ozzy, but Ozzy didn't like it, and couldn't come up with anything lyrically that worked.
2. It is a known fact that Tony Iommi records everything that's played in his studio. It has been said that he has volumes and volumes of tapes, going way back to early days, stored in his "vault". Now and again some of this stuff gets leaked, or somehow made available to the public. How cool would it be to hear some of those first recordings of this song, the song that launched the Dio era of Black Sabbath?
3. Both Dio and Tony Iommi have said that the recording of the Heaven and Hell album was one of the happiest times in their lives. It's in Tony's autobiography and it's in Dio's autobiography. 🤘🎸🤘
Ronnie mentioned this as well during the "Heaven and Hell" tour of 2007, as he introduced the song. The younger fans were unaware, but the older ones roared when that riff started. Pure magic.
DIO'S LYRICS NOT ONLY GAVE US FANTASY? THEY SPOKE TRUTH!🤘
You two should check out "Neon Knights" from this album. One of three singles released. "Children of the Sea" was the B-side of the 7". Scorching, uptempo song, only three reactions by my count (one with a misspelled title "... Nights"). I think "underrated" is an overused term, but "Neon Knights" is extremely underrated and underappreciated by the reactor crowd.
Fact^^^^^.
I concur, I would only add that for me the entire album is great, but Lonely Is The Word, might be my favorite
Neon Knights is my favorite RJD era Sabbath song. An absolutely incredible jam.
yep....Neon Knights is a banger I have trouble choosing from it, Children of the Sea, and of course Heaven & Hell as my favs from the album....but Neon Knights is fan-freaking-tastic :)
This album is my favorite dio performance and one of my all time favorite metal albums.
Lex, "It's just incredible music". You definitely got that right.
One of my all time favorite songs! Thank you for the reaction!
I grew up on this music and I started teaching when I was 22. I’m retiring in June after 32 years and I still listen to metal. I will have metal played at my funeral. It will never get old for me 🤘🤘🤘
Amen, brother. I'm 51 and my 3 favorite bands are still Sabbath, Priest and Maiden in that order. 🤘
I currently work in the very boring and stiff field of clinical research. The other day we were on a video conference call and the Vice President of Clinical Affairs says, "Joe, is that an Iron Maiden shirt you're wearing?"
Everyone laughs, and he says, "That's awesome". 🤘
I distinctly remember taping (?!) this off the local FM radio station that would "debut" new LPs at midnight every night. EVERYONE was eager to hear what Sabbath would sound like post-Ozzy. Suffice it to say this blew us all away. And I'm an old Boomer. RIP Ronnie.
Do you remember Rockline, th nationwide broadcast where they'd interview artists in studio & debut new tracks off upcoming Album? It would come on @ 10 or 10:30 CT just when I got home from work in time to record it. Good times🍻
Tony Iommi invented metal and then he hired Dio. Give the man his props!
Amen, Brother. Iommi is the creator of heavy metal. And I'm of the sometimes unpopular opinion that Dio Sabbath is the best Sabbath.
Honestly, I think Iommi played some of his absolute best riffs and solos with Ronnie James Dio. 🤘🎸
@@josephbarr1659 , no argument from me! 🤟👍
I love this track. When me and my friends were in junior high school we used to all do Dio impressions by yelling “Look out!!”
😆👏👏👏👏🤘
We used to change "Children" to "Chicken" and laugh about it being a metal tuna commercial 😆 Looking back it seems so Lex-ish 🤣
Children of the Grave(a 51 year old song) is another killer Black Sabbath song🤘🤘🤘
Sweet jesus...51 yrs old...wow... Time flies
Look Out!!!! This tune is all about that incredible Geezer Butler bass line. My band used to play this song and that bass line is amazing all by itself.
every song off the heaven and hell album is badass
One of the greatest metal albums of all time. Pure masterpiece., top to bottom.
Dio and any form of Black Sabbath are always phenomenal!
You know who else? Deep Purple! Listen to Perfect Strangers off the album by the same name by Deep Purple and then explore the rest of that glorious album and work your way back through the years of hit after hit!
And then go down the Rainbow rabbit hole...
Ahhhhh.... The Rainbow 🌈 rabbit hole!! Heck yes. Man oh man, those performances from Rainbow's "Live in Munich 1977" just defy description. Catch the Rainbow live might move you to tears. Blackmore was such a beast on guitar 🎸 in the live versions.
I'm more of a Tony Iommi fan, but watching Blackmore on stage is impressive. I tip my hat to his mastery.
@@josephbarr1659 💯
Great song. Dio could paint a picture with his lyrics
Like Lex said, "Ozzy is a mood." However, Dio is a vocal master!!!
💯% agree with that.
You know, how Lex was feeling was EXACTLY the way I was feeling when I heard this song. Very glad to know music is as contagious as the parent's feared it was.
Accoding to Ronnie James Dio, this song is about Ecology. The lyrics talk about as humans learn to run before we know to walk, and due to this we are hurting our surrounding and organisms due to advancements in technology and wars.
Neon Knights is a banger....
So is die young!!
I love watching lexs face when the Riff drops and she smiles .. you can tell she’s like “ yeah I’m feeling this 🥰
DIO saved this band
Wish we had more music from this lineup.
@@NeonNights80 Wish more people knew about all the offerings from this lineup. It's not just Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules.
There's also Dehumanizer and then the final reunion under the name "Heaven and Hell". Have you heard the song Bible Black?
@@josephbarr1659 I saw three Heaven and Hell shows.
This is 7th grade for me 1981. Had it on vinyl!
Dio was a beast! Falling off the edge of the world is another great Black Sabbath song with the great Ronnie James Dio!👍🏻
Agreed 💯% My gosh that friggin RIFF in Falling Off the Edge of the World is just otherworldly. It's so forbodeing, it's almost scary. That whole Mob Rules album is another Masterpiece.
This entire album is a legendary, epic masterpiece!
One of the greatest albums of “sword and sorcery” metal ever produced!
Sign of the southern cross is a great Black Sabbath / Dio song
Yes .Love this song..
Agreed. Also, Falling Off the Edge of the World.
When the riff drops, YES!!!!! You’re starting to get it now
Wow, haven’t heard this in years and it all came back to me instantly
I love her reaction. She's so pure.
I was very young when the beatles were on a show called "The Ed Sullivan Show" on Sunday nights...but they ushered in the "long hair" generation, guys let their hair grow, and a revolution was slowly beginning, a social revolution, and much of the music that came out not long after that fateful night where the Beatles were on TV, black and white, and the girls were screaming, and their hair was long, for that day, and I turned to my parents and said...This is my favorite band!!! they later confided in me when I was older that they thought "Oh NO!!! Tv is rotting his brain!!" Then comes Black Sabbath, and parents were scared out of their minds, because they believed it was devil music, that it was horrible, and shouldn't be played...so we played it louder...Rock ON!!
🤘🤘
she gets it!
I got in to Sabbath in '74 when I was 9. Growing up my mom hated them, Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Deep Purple, Boston, Bad Co., etc, etc. She hated it ALL, except for a few mellow songs. And then when I started to listen to Punk also, she REALLY hated that. Most parents who were teens in the 50's-early 60's weren't into the harder 70's rock but of course a few were.
Metal was always the haven of the misunderstood kids, the outcasts, the not like the other kids kids. It was cathartic & spoke to the issues & troubles of those of us on the fringe.
We made the mountains shake with laughter as we played...
Lookout!!
Loved watching her jam to this killer tune.
Shame on the Night, Gypsy & Don't talk to strangers off Holy diver are Dio classics
I really appreciate you guys doing a deeper cut from the greatest heavy metal band of all time!
"When the riff drops" sounds cool to me! I'm gonna start saying that.
My favorite song off Heaven and Hell. It speaks to my nerdy bookworm side which I try to suppress. My favorite from the Dio/Sabbath era is either Country Girl or Voodoo, should check them out.
Never suppress your bookworm side. (I think Ronnie James Dio would've said that, too.)
I love Country Girl
Oooooh, Country Girl!!! Possibly one of Sabbath's most overlooked songs, and one of my all time favorites.
Think about just how incredible and unique that riff is.
What's funny is that Tony Iommi, in his autobiography, admits that he didn't want to record this song at first, when Dio approached him with the idea. I imagine Tony probably initially thought Dio wanted to do a country music song! 🤣 Of course Tony goes on to admit that Dio made it awesome and it worked out great.
Thanx for reacting to this great metal classic!
Still gives me chills anytime I hear it. Lex, you really got it!
You really have to do "all the fools sail away"
Yes!! I knew Lex would love that. For your next Dio you should do Gates of Babylon by Rainbow. Reminder the Rainbow guitarist Ritchie Blackmore is from Deep Purple.
Lex, you are a true rocker! You so get it. These reactions are fun. Thanks you two.
The one of many reasons why Black Sabbath is the greatest band ever... Lookout!!
You two are fantastic! I love your contrast between expressive and introspective! You both capture the artistry exceptionally. I've listened to Dio since 1983, you honor him well, thank you.
First song they wrote with Dio. Whole album is Gold
Lex captured the song spirit, Black Sabbath and Dio rules!
This and Wishing Well are my favorites of the album.
Top 3 Black Sabbath album.
42 yr old song STILL kicks major ass!!!
I left for boot camp in the summer of 81when I was 18 for the reserves. When I got home all my Sabbath posters were replaced by freaking dead butterflies in picture frames. Needless to say I was pissed lol.. Thanks Grandma! H&H is a perfect album…period
This WHOLE album is amazing! No disrespect to Ozzy, but this is my personal favourite Black Sabbath album! Enjoy! 🤘🏻🇨🇦
I'd pick Mob Rules myself, but the same sentiment
Mob Rules is another awesome album…
Lex, your reaction is on point and it completely consumed you about 3/4 way through the song … it was amazing to watch it touch you!!
Was lucky enough to see Black Sabbath on the Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules tours. Two of the better concerts I saw as a teenager.
the BEAT definitely dropped, along with the guitar riffs!
I agree...in fact, "Neon Knights" has always been my favorite Dio/Sabbath song of all time. The energy of the song is absolutely addictive, and every word that Ronnie sings is effortless and powerful. Tony is free to incorporate new riffs and awesome lead fills, Geezer and Bill sound so perfect....Top 10 intro songs also IMOP.
This definitely wasn't mainstream. Totally underground but greatly appreciated by the millions of fans
It wasn't mainstream but it certainly wasn't underground. It sold a lot - the third best-selling Sabbath album at the time.
@@janoshunyadi2 It was underground in the sense that Sabbath(and most metal bands at the time) records and concerts were supported by their millions of devout fans through word of mouth/music mags, not from radio play or popular music charts, or other main stream commercial media sources.
@@zoots15 Millions of fans is the opposite of underground. It was not underground in any sense of the word. Furthermore, radio did play Sabbath. Not everywhere, I admit, and not as much as some music, but it was given airtime in the US and the UK.
@@janoshunyadi2 I guess I am misusing the use of the term? Sabbath definitely wasn't mainstream music. I wouldn't know what else to call it. Non -mainstream? Anyway, where I am from, metal was seen as an underground type of music, as bands like Sabbath/ Maiden/Priest etc. received no radio play whatsoever. But through word of mouth and the love of the music by the die hard fans, they were still able to sell out concerts. Cheers
@@zoots15 I get what you're saying. I almost never heard Sabbath on the radio. Even when Metal became popular, the radio seldom played any Sabbath other than Paranoid. I understand that this probably depends on the size of the city, but that was my experience.
Been listening to this album since I was a kid. I'm 57 now, and I still listen to it! RIP RJD!
Whoever did the fan video, that's just amazing.
Every song has some sort of leading intro but then when the song kicks in that's when the bass hits its line which is the backbone of any rock or metal song. Think of it like the guitar is the crunch and the bass is the punch. And punch is continuous while a guitar rides it
back in the day when I was in radio...that drop you were trying to figure out what to call it...in the music business, it's called "The hook" of the song...it is supposed to "pull you in" ...et al...Rock ON!!
You need to check out another Ronnie James Dio era Black Sabbath classic..."The Mob Rules"!!
"Sign of the Southern Cross" is probably the best Dio-era Sabbath song.
one of my favs
Right up there but there are so many.
Absolutely agree with this
Agree!
Ugh.... good times.... goooooood times 🥺
"What are we working with here?"
"Metal."
Yeah. Hell yes to the yeah. Such a banger track off of one of the best comeback records ever.
Just please keep them videos flowin'.
This is my favorite reaction by you guys!! This whole album is a masterpiece
Every song on that album is awesome!!!!! I listen to it at my desk on earbuds. ; )
When the riff drops, I like that Brad
When the song kicks in is correct. I do enjoy watching you both listen to awesome music and enjoy it! The late 70's and 80's had awesome music!!!
Been waiting for this one!!
The bass work is top notch Geezer doesn't get enough love
I've watched like 40 or so of your reactions. Lex is simply a rocker. Period. Headbanging rocker.
Love you guys. A true “Yin & Yang” of reactions. Both feel an understanding of the music, so important. Love how you both bring your own perspective.
good choice, one of Sabbath's best
Metal certainly was considered as dangerous as any musicstyle ever back in the 80´s and there were TV debates about it etc and most of the parental generation probably would have wanted to burn our records (called vinyl albums today). We Metal fans really were a lot like outcasts for liking Metal music, but it made us stronger and we persevered.
Lex is totally becoming a metal chick. Love it! She doesn't have the vocabulary yet, but she's definitely feeling it.
Y'all are picking a lot of the best ones, and this is one of 'em.
RIP- Ronnie James Dio. Your voice is so great that you would even make the "Foldgers coffee" jingle sound heavy. Rock on Brad & Lex
Love how Lex gets it, not sure Brad is such a big fan, but Lex definitely loves good metal! Great reaction both of you
Damn! You do all the BANGERS!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👏🙌
Neon Knights is awesome from this same album.
I have always called metal driving or working out music.
Like grabbing another gear.
Thanks for jamming out once again.
"When the Riff Drops" sounds like a great title for a song.
We love Lex!! Brad as well!!
Lex totally got it! Jammin the freak out. Just listen to the bass line in this song... incredilble.
"What are we working with here?"
"Metaaalll......"
"Nothing further, Your Honor"
Just think,Ronnie was almost 40 when they recorded this. No such thing as autotune. Just talent.
As a huge fan i would say that he was at his absolute peak as a singer when he was around 40. If you need autotune its just because you cant sing and Dio was in my opinion the greatest Metal singer of all time.
Same.
But, I'm a Sabbath fan first and foremost over all else. And by that I mean I am a Tony Iommi fan. That being said, Dio Sabbath is the best Sabbath. 🤘🎸
@@josephbarr1659 Tony Iommi is a legend and he wrote so many great songs with his bandmates in the different incarnations of Black Sabbath.
It's nice to see someone doing something different and ya this is one of my favorite Sabbath riffs hell ya! Thanks again. You get it girl!
great comment Lexi at the end. My Dad found this 8 Track in my bookcase with my hardy boys books. He called me to my room and TOLD ME to get this out of the house NOW!!!! I was 10 It was 1975. I Borrowed it from a kid down the street.
Lex we all love you!! Keep going.
I love rocking’ with you two! 🤘🏻🤟🏻💜
You all would love Die Young or Country Girl. Some good Dio era Sabbath songs!
Oh yes, Die Young.... brilliant :)
Interesting. Those are literally 2 of my all time favorite Sabbath songs. Country Girl is too often overlooked, but damn. That riff.
This whole album is amazing. You guys should do each track. Perhaps the best Sabbath album..
Dang you should have done Neon Knights!!!
Ronnie James Dio said that 'Children of the Sea' was the first song he and Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath wrote together 🤘🤘
Dang. It's been so long I forgot this song was a song. A great song! D I O !!!!
