This song is very significant in Dio's career. It was inspired by his time with Black Sabbath where most of the time he felt excluded and rejected by the band. Black Sabbath's music is often relatively dark and ominous with occult references and themes. Dio had just left Rainbow to be the frontman for Sabbath and he felt more connected to Rainbow's more lighthearted songs vs. Sabbath's darker tone. This is where the song takes a double meaning. He felt like a metaphorical rainbow trying to shine through the darkness of Black Sabbath, and also that no matter how difficult the experience became, he would always shine, like a rainbow after a storm. Also, as a side note on his vocal style, this is very easily seen when compared to Ozzy during his Black Sabbath tenure. Ozzy, as well as many rock/metal lead singers of the time, tended to sing with the riffs, essentially accompanying the music with their vocals, whereas Dio would sing across the riffs providing contrast in tone and isolating his voice at specific parts of the song. It's actually very genius songwriting and composition as it creates instantly memorable moments in a song that keeps people coming back and analyzing for decades after its creation.

@briansmith7492 10 ай бұрын

Actually the song is about Ritchie Blackmore. Has nothing to do with Black Sabbath as a Band or their concept. It's about RB. Dio sang for RB 1st solo album after leaving Deep Purple. Deep Purple was frankly tired of Blackmore's antics. He was always going off on some stupid adventure. Looking up the dark ancient cultures of the past. In all the places the band traveled. Basically Ritchie was in search of validation for his dark and growing Satanic beliefs and worship. Rainbow refers to Ritchie Blackmore. The name of Ritchie's band. Dark refers to the well, I just explained that to you. Dio was a Man of God and had a deep belief in Jesus. Rainbow in the Dark, for all intentional purposes. Was and still is a slap in the face directed towards Ritchie Blackmore.

@@briansmith7492 Ok, so that's not the first time I've heard that version. I'm going of off the version of the story that Craig Goldy told me and a few others during a meet and greet after a concert. Being that the song was written shortly after his tenure with Black Sabbath, it's entirely possible that both versions of the story are true and the song is an amalgam of his experiences with people who delved into the darker themes and lifestyles. Dio had a thing for writing lyrics with double meanings and deep subtexts of which only those with a wealth of knowledge about his career, life, and beliefs would understand the true meaning. Honestly, most of his songs have a half dozen possible explanations as to the meaning, and sometimes, all and none of them are correct. Exploring the darkened mind of a lyrical genius is never an exercise in certainty. However, since this is a recurrence of hearing the Ritchie Blackmore explanation, I'm going to delve deeper into that since the only explanation I'd heard up to this point was from a band member's lips and not Dio himself. Thank you for contributing this to the conversation. It'll no doubt provide me with several hours of blissful research.

Not sure if anyone has shared this in previous Dio videos, but not only was he a very giving performer, but he was a genuinely good person. From his wife after his death: "One time, I think it was with Dio, we'd left after a show on the bus, we were pulling out, and there was a kid sitting on the side of the road. And Ronnie said, "Stop, and see what's going on." And so Ronnie personally got out and said, "What's wrong?" And the kid said, "Well, I've missed my last bus home." And so they ask him where he was going, and they say, "Well, hop on the bus. We'll give you a ride." And that was Ronnie."

I also remember a Story where 2 dudes went to see a concert of a a bigger metal Band, I forgot which one it was, and they lost their tickets but didn't notice until they arrived at the venue. Since there were no tickets left they had to sit in the Parking lot in Front of the venue and just chilled there. Some 20 minutes later a couple appeared and asked why they're not in there to which the dudes replied that they lost their tickets. The man, which was Dio but the two dudes didn't recognize him, went back to the venue and came back with two Backstage Passes and handed them to the guys. They only later found out that this, in fact were Ronnie and Wendy Dio. I dont know how true that Story is but this actually Sounds like something he would've done.

@kingbrutusxxvi 2 жыл бұрын

He was, reportedly, great with his fans but try reading or watching an interview with literally any member of his band back then and you get a very different story about Ronnie and especially Wendy. Vivian and Jimmy famously had terrible things to say about their time in the band and the Dios while Vinny has tried to stay somewhat neutral but has confirmed the Viv and Jimmy's stories were all truthful. I'm still a huge fan of Dio's voice but when every person in the band has really bad things to say?

Same. I knew him from fall of '70 to about '77 or '78, when was on tour with Rainbow, where I caught up with him at the Winterland in SF. The backstage there is nearly as big as the stage. He had to do a couple interviews for mags/newspapers. When he finished, he came walking across the floor. When I caught his eye, his arms went wide, and he came to me with a big hug. I hadn't seen him since WNY a few years earlier. We had both been bass players when we met, and became good friends. We shared several venues in WNY. He stopped playing bass after the first Elf lp, I didn't. The guy was so genuine, gracious. He was a great friend. And I still miss him, sorely. He does bring a tear.

25:25 People often interpret Heavy Metal as just being nothing more than aggression for aggression's sake. It's angry and destructive and violent. Which it can be. But generally speaking, if you actually read the lyrics, they're often about being yourself. They're about "Hey, you're not alone." and "Don't be afraid to be who you want to be, and don't worry about what other people think."

I had the distinct honor of meeting him twice. The first time I met him the group that I was with ended up being the last in line (yes that was an ongoing joke while we waited in line). So we got to sit with the band for like 45 minutes to an hour, whereas every other group was supposed to be "in and out" in about 15 minutes. The second time I met him, was a few years later, and he remembered our meeting. Beyond that, he remembered my name. Years later, probably thousands of other fans met over that time, and he remembered my name. That's my takeaway when it comes to Dio, he remembered his fans.

That was when they discovered the stomach cancer. *This based on Tony Iommi's autobiography.

I saw DIO whenever he came to Portland Oregon and on the “Killing The Dragon” tour we were in the balcony at Roseland Theater when he started singing “Rainbow In the Dark” and we started to do the “we’re not worthy” bowing from the “Wayne’s World” movie. He stopped singing, flashed us the devil horns and said “you are worthy, you are all worthy”. Not only was it awesome, but it was cool to realize he understood a reference to “Wayne’s World”. And he always came out to the alley behind the Roseland to say hi to the fans after the shows.

Ronnie James Dio single handedly helped me through my childhood trauma, and saved my life with his music. It always felt like he was right beside me, telling me that I'm never alone, and that he understood my pain. I was lucky to get to see him in concert before he died, but I feel once wasn't enough. I owe my being to Dio, and I will always feel he is with me though his music. I'm so happy that someone is giving him so much credit where credit is due. If you have never heard Jorn, listen to his Dio tribute song, Song for Ronnie James. It's amazing.

Ronnie always changed his approach to not only his fans, but to make the song HAPPEN. This always helped his band, as they were always different members. He gave them leeway to play the song to their strengths, he adjusted. Not every guitarist was as fast and as fluid as Vivian Campbell, and it is almost impossible to duplicate his playing. This guitarist plays it straightforward, not as detailed, but it brings his style out, which is great. He phrases the song somewhat in a rougher manner, but it still fits the song great. The band in general is more aggressive than the original, so Ronnie adapts to them. Not many singers can do that, and yes you acknowledge his versatility! The song remains the same, just different technique. I have heard lots of bar bands wreck this song pretty badly. Ronnie just adapts, and whomever he had playing, it always sounded great! He was a master! RIP Ronnie, you are a true legend!

Next stops: "The Last In line" and "One Night In the City", from the second solo Dio, "All the Fools Sailed Away" from Dream Evil, then take a deep Doom Dive into Strange Highways with "Jesus, Mary & the Holy Ghost", and "Evilution". Then Revisit Rainbow with "Man on the Silver Mountain", "A Light in the Black", "Kill the King". Don't forget his stay with Black Sabbath: "Sign of the Southern Cross" and "Falling off the Edge of the World".

Simon Le Bon masterfully first carried the vocals in The Chauffeur, a Duran Duran original from the early 1980s, and an amazing song in its own right. Years later, Le Bon handed the lead to Chris Corner of Sneaker Pimps, and his hauntingly beautiful voice, as the two shared a stage for this same song, only this time, with Le Bon singing backup to Chris Corner. I've always been mesmerized by Corner's voice, but I didn't think that someone of Le Bon's caliber would hand off not only the lead, but the lead to his own song! The duo did not disappoint!
