The greatest metal vocalist of all time.

How could anyone "NOT" be impressed with Dio, and Blackmore's Rainbow. Modern rock, mixed with baroque, Renaissance, and medieval-classical influenced fusion, which started a whole new genre of rock music, lasting decades to come. A band that influenced, and launched thousands of musical careers. And it was awesome to see her so entranced by Ritchie's guitar solo. She looked like she was about to sploosh all over her chair. Thats just how I felt when I first listened to Ritchie. Unbelievable! I am happy to see the music of my generation still appreciated. Thank you for that.

Ronnie was a master of stagecraft, he stood 5'4" but had a voice as big as a mountain and could captivate an audience all the way to the rafters with his incredible stage presence. Rainbow had 3 solid albums of music with Ronnie, not a bad song to be found on any of them, Temple of the King is a standout from the first album, a beautiful bard's ballad.

Watching you react, this is exacly what it felt like back in 1976. ps. Rainbow - Live in Munich 1977, it's all on youtube, indulge yourself. Saw Rainbow a couple of months after this was filmed and they were mindblowing.

I've heard this song literally hundreds of times by now, and it still blows me away...easily one of the greatest metal songs ever written. Ronnie James Dio (RIP) was simply the greatest metal vocalist of all time. His career spans decades...prior to joining Rainbow he was in a band called Elf (different style, but great in their own right). After his brief time in Rainbow, Dio went on to have a legendary stint with the band Black Sabbath, as well as a very successful solo career with his band Dio. Ritchie Blackmore is easily one of my all-time favorite guitarists, and a true legend. His previous band was Deep Purple, which he left to form Rainbow...he's currently playing medieval folk music with the band Blackmore's Night. Cozy Powell (RIP) was one of the true journeyman drummers in metal...he literally played with seemingly everyone. My two recommendations for future Rainbow reactions are the live recording of the song "Mistreated" and the song "Catch the Rainbow" (a ballad, and my favorite Rainbow song of all), preferably live as well. God bless!!

Tony Carey - keyboard wizard who since decades enjoy great success as a solo artist, especially in his current home country Germany. In short, this is a super lineup from beginning to end.

It's a truly powerful song and I recall my first time hearing it. Rainbow was incredible and they have many great songs. "Man On the Silver Mountain" is another classic.

I could not agree more. For some reason "A Light in the Black" has become the forgotten twin sister to "Stargazer". It really deserves it's place in the sun. That being said, "Tarot Woman" would also make a great song to react to.

Highly recommend two KZread videos of the live performances of Rainbow from the 1977 Munich concert. The song "Mistreated" is the best vocal performance for Ronnie James Dio, and the song "Catch the Rainbow" which has Ritchie Blackmore's best solo. The whole show is incredible, so if you like these then check out the other songs from this concert "16th Century Greensleeves, Kill the King, Long Live Rock n Roll, Still I'm Sad, Man on the Silver Mountain, and Do you Close Your Eyes."

For me Stargazer was the best song, DIO was amazing and the greatest voice of Heavy Metal, since the intro, you feel the power, but the song touch the soul, the guitar solo of Ritchie is for another dimension, all the instruments are mixed to create a master piece, and for last, te letter invite us to make a reflection to be ourselves, look for our goals and dreams and don´t follow false prophets because at the end, they are more humans and stupids than us.

You have stumbled on to one of the greatest songs on rock history, sung by what many consider to be the greatest voice in rock/metal history. Ronnie James Dio was so incredible. You should check out Gates Of Babylon by Rainbow, or some of his Black Sabbath tunes Heaven and Hell, Sign of the Southern Cross, and Children of the Sea. Then he has a whole catalog of his own band DIO to choose from. I recommend Don’t Talk To Strangers and Last In Line.

I was there, 15 years old -77, mindblowing!

I love watching first time reactions to it, like your's, everyone is positively blown away by it, thank you for sharing your reaction to it, I've loved many of your reactions previously, but this is my favorite. Thank you! 💞

When I was 4 years old, I loved watching the animated video of "Love is all" by Roger Glover & guests. I remember clearly that the singer's voice really stood out for me; I used to call him "the singing frog". Then as a teenager, I discovered Dio's album "Holy Diver". I loved it, and I found out about his previous albums with Black Sabbath and Rainbow. And to my surprise, Dio also was the voice behind the singing frog! The guy was a legend with a singing career spanning 5 decades. And were he still alive today, he would undoubtedly have added a bunch of years to it.

I heard this song the first time when I was 20, the year my daughter was born, I am n0w 66, and watching you watch brought tears to my eyes. The song lyrics, is Dio, a Prophet with a song about a false prophet as it reveals the tale "Time standing still, Then there's blood on the sand, Oh I see his face" I am subscrbing and the follow up song Light in the Black also incredible freedom from one's own personal enslavement. As he would write later "Life's fantasy, to be locked away and still to think you're free" This band is Ritchie Blackmore's band, I consider him the greatest rock arranger of all time and one of its greatest composers and certainly guitar players of all time. You get my attention dear and now we are music buddies, Got a couple of tears to wipe off my face Kisses

I’ve been a life long Ronnie James Dio fan and Stargazer is by far my favorite song he sings, it’s powerful and moving… it makes you feel like your surrounded by Rainbows and Dragons. Another great Rainbow song is Kill the King , believe me from a lifelong DIO fan you won’t be disappointed. I never got to see DIO in Rainbow but I have seen him 8 times live and loved every show.

The little guy with the gigantic voice is my alltime favourite rock singer ! I bought that record just when it came out. I knew Blackmore and I liked the cover art. So I decided to carry it home. Short time later the rainbow rised in my hometown and I was there. It was a kind of lifetime experience. But I also saw Blackmore rolling his eyes, when he noticed how much the crowd adored Dio. Then I realized that Dio would not stay forever in the Band. Blackmore didn‘t tolerate other gods beside him. But it lasted longer than I thought. Fortunately ! More than 40 years later I'm still blown away when I listen to that song and the one and only Dio. Love it !

Wonderful reaction Sabina, what a band they were at their peak with the legend that is Ronnie James Dio on vocals 🤘

I had the privileged to watch a show with Ritchie Blackmore´s Rainbow 77 in Stockholm. Need I say that it was fantastic and mindblowing.😀 The musicianship, they where a force of nature.

First time I heard them was fairly recently. His lyrics are often very layered, as his music. And then there's the voice, he could ask mountains to move with that voice, and those would probably agree. Killing the dragon, Rainbow in the dark, Holy diver, all deserve at least one listen, but maybe more.

Arjen Lucassen from Ayreon/Star One's ultimate goal is to compose and write lyrics to a piece that can match Stargazer. Dio had an enormous influence on Hard/Heavy Metal. Richie Blackmore the guitrarist was one of the founding members of Deep Purple and is also one of the most influential guitarist of all times.

Awesome. I seen him 4 times. The weather changes when this man played concerts outside.❤

One of the best songs&live performances ever...I don't play it to often because it always makes me cry at some point because it's so good!Unbelievable!

This is one of my favorite things, RDJ, Ritchie, Rainbow, this song in particular, and the entire album, getting the recognition they so deserve. They didn't get much airplay at the time, and certainly not this song. But... imagine being in high school in 1976, _really_ stoned, and hearing this at full volume for the first time. The first time I heard it, I actually needed a bus ticket to get back to my own reality. Note to Sabina, the track following this one is "Light in the Black" and it continues the story from the perspective of one of the former tower slaves. Every track on the entire album is excellent. Run with the wolf and Do you close your eyes were pretty much the only songs the radio played, you had to buy the album. SO great to see a new audience experiencing this.

Haunting note at 3.06. The raw natural talent of all band members is sublime.

Hi Sabina, I can't believe you have never heard the master, the best metal vocalist ever, Ronnie James Dio. This song is definitely a masterpiece, but I never heard it until much later. I first heard Dio when he was fronting Black Sabbath, where in my opinion, he had his best material. Please check out Voodoo, Children of the Sea, Falling Off The Edge Of The World, and Sign of the Southern Cross for some more supremely great music of his. He also reunited with most of the same members more recently under a new band name, Heaven 'n Hell. Check out Bible Black. I haven't been this excited for you to hear new music since you discovered Nightwish!

He is absolutley the best singer all time

Glad you liked it. First time I heard this was while driving. I looked at my radio to see what sing it was. I already knew it was Dio singing because his voice is unmistakable. But saw it was rainbow. As soon as I got home, I played it on my surround system. I listen to this song once a week.

Playing the trumpet when young gave him awesome power and perfect breath control.

Watching people hear all of this great work for the first time never gets old.

Incredible, isn't it? So much ethereal tones out there. I have come to love heavy metal/progressive rock in just the last few years, and I'm in my 60s. Literally, metal has awakened my soul to the engine of the universe. It's all Mathematical and it's hypnotically healing. Thank you, Sabina.

And don’t forget…not only will every singer wish he could sound like him…he IS the father of the sign🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

It's rather exciting seeing a beautiful young woman getting totally lost in this song, reminds me of my youth.

Amazing response to what was probably Rainbow's greatest lineup and greatest song. Ronnie James Dio was one of the most genuine and loved rock vocalists of his generation. He loved and respected his fans and his death was one of the greatest tragedies in rock history.

First heard Dio with Rainbow back in the 70’s when I was in my 20’s. I won an LP of Rainbow back then and didn’t know what luck I had in doing so. Knew nothing about them.

I was first introduced to Rainbow - Stargazer in 1983 as a freshman in college. Like you, I was blown away. Richie Blackmore came over from Deep Purple. Cozy Powell was a highly regarded session drummer who also backed up Michael Schenker. I recommend both Deep Purple (Made in Japan) and MIchael Schenker (his first solo album was his best, before that he was with UFO and the Scorpions). I doubt I am alone here when I say I admire your curiosity and appreciation of some of the very best rock music ever created.

I was lucky enough to see Rainbow live in concert in Australia.what a great show they put on. I first saw the about 46 years ago. I was very young and it was pretty much the first live concert I saw. You should listen to Light in The Black.

your so right... I listened to these songs all my life but never knew it was from a band called 'Rainbow'. Yes, I have been stuck listening to them for two weeks now. lol. Enjoy

God, I had forgotten how great this song is, actually now that I'm older I appreciate it even more.

Yes this is such a powerful song and I was blown away first time I heard it . Please look into more of Ronnie James Dio and all his different projects. Such a magical story teller he was. RIP He was a front man for Black Sabbath after Ozzy went solo then Ronnie James DIO himself went solo under band name “Dio” Loved him in the eighties when I was a kid and still rock his music. He’s magic

Great reaction, loved it! I grew up with the likes of Rainbow and before them, Deep Purple. I was lucky enough to see Rainbow live in Leeds (UK) in 1981, unfortunately the singer had changed by then. It was still a fantastic concert though and they did a great cover of Smoke on the Water. Listening to Richie (and Roger Glover) play that was a dream come true!

Glad you've found this band/album/singer! I was 13 years old when this album was released in -76 and I even got my parents into liking this kind of music. Main reason for getting hooked back then was a childhood friend, class mate and nowadays well known guitarist- Yngwie Malmsteen.

Has a case for being the first ever Symphonic Metal song. One of the finest rock tracks ever recorded. It has a very effective mastery of "The Drop" - a device where you build the song up to pause before an epic movement. e.g. TO SEE HIM FLY - BUT WE DON'T KNOW WHY!! (bom, bom, bombombom)[pause] NOW WHERE DO WE GOOOOOOOOOO

Шедевр!!! Исполненый на одном дыхании. Это вечная музыка! Светлая память!!!

Blackmore is a genius, out of his mind but a genius none the less.

I'm a lifelong metal/hard rock fan and I just heard this song for the first time about 2 weeks back. I knew Dio from his solo work and always liked Holy Diver. I had no idea he was kicking so much a$$ with the guitar player from Deep Purple back in the 70's. This is the most complete hard rock/metal song I've ever heard. Brilliant from start to finish. Dio has the most soul of any singer I've heard. Halford and Dickenson are great but Dio is next level. Subbed to your channel, great reaction.

I have been listening to this song for over forty years and I still get chills

This band was put on earth to play this song and we will never see it’s like again ❤🤟😊

I was 2 years old when this came out. Later in life my mother played this for me. Still to this day it's as awesome as ever. Dio r.i.p.

The tune of this song is just amazing. Whenever Dio goes to Rainbow or Black Sabbath it's the best songs produced! Gates Of Babylon is great too, some middle eastern tune. I miss him soooo much.

I first heard this over 20 years ago and was blown away like yourself. I can't get enough of Ronnie Jame Dio he was incredible at what he did. Stargazer is my favorite from Rainbow next to The man on the silver mountain.

The late great RJD! I was lucky enough to see him live twice. MSG in '86 and at the Meadowlands in '87, both shows were mind blowing.

The power and majesty of Dio’s voice has no equal.

This band epitomized the power and majesty of rock.

Next ? Rainbow - Mistreated (Live in Munich 1977) HD

So Sabine, I am glad you arrived to this wonderful part of exploring the 70's rock, take a look at deep purple, and yes, I believe everyone who heard this for the first time get shocked and of course they have a lot of goosebumps, welcome Sabine

I have watched my fair share of people who experience videos and bands they've never known, by far the way you're doing it is best. Words on screen while music is on. I liked that about the way you did this kicking tune by the way. Subscribed for sure.

Thanks and welcome!!! 😃🙏🏻

My first exposure to Stargazer was in 1982. I had already been exposed to a great deal of Deep Purple and Dio era Black Sabbath. I had purchased the first Rainbow album and really enjoyed it, so I thought I would delve deeper. I bought Rainbow Rising never having heard it and quickly learned that the first album had not at all prepared me for the raw power of Rising. To this day Rising remains on my top ten album list.

I am blown away from this song since 1976... Still the best song ever for me.

Aaaahhh Dio. I heard this at 9!! My brothers 10 & 11 yrs older would only let me hang if I listened to THEIR music. Yeah. I was educated very well lolol You're not the only one. I love all music. But have my faves. Growing up I had a hard time finding girls who loved this. Their guys sure. I treaded lightly. I thank my brothers all the time. Boy did they shape my brain.....in a good way I love reaction vids for that very reason. I've seen all the greats. I need one of those T-shirts. 'Might be older but seen all the best concerts' Saw Tool 2x and wish I could have taken my oldest brother. He's listening from above!!! Love your channel Sabina!!!!

DIO! DIO! DIO! DIO! is what any crowd that ever saw him live would chant over and over again

pretty freaking awesome? I wa 14 yrs old and young budding drummer in 1976 when Rainbow & this kickass song came out ..blew my mind then and still does at 60 yrs old ..your reaction was spot on with every other reaction Ive seen of this song..super glad you loved it ...RIP Ronnie Dio

Stargazer is a masterpiece and an epic song. Every musician gave their all here you can feel it in your bones. It was not my first experience with "Rainbow" though. "Man On The Silver Mountain" was in the early 80's. After that song, I played the whole record non-stop lol. Ronnie will always be "Man On The Silver Mountain" to me.
