how come its dio singing instead of ozzy?

Way better than the ... ( 1 month ago by targetaansveil)

Way better than the one with Dio doing Paranoid. I like the way he phrases the lyrics especially; the "Why should they go out to fight" line always sounded awkward to me when Ozzy sang it, but Ronnie makes it fit properly.

I loved the "oh lord yeah!!!" with Dio, sounds perfect!!!

I love Dio's voice, but Ozzy Osbourne has that particular voice that makes old school Black Sabbath.

Fraid not my friend. Ozzy's voice is wayy better tonally and just much more suited to all these Sabbath tunes. The only thing Dio has is that weird high vibrato he does that sounds like someone has his balls in a vice. Dio has a good voice for that cheesey hair metal stuff he does - he should stick to that.

ITS COOL BUT NOT AS GOOD OZZY BETTER

it doesn't matter ... ( 1 month ago by ozzypossum)

it doesn't matter how much you sell to be good, If that was true that would mean Soulja Boy & the Jonas Brothers were better than Sabbath, & besides Dio still has his voice, and he's 5 years older than Ozzy. Ozzy lost his voice like 12 years ago

Dio is hopeless. ... ( 4 weeks ago by studer89)

Dio is hopeless. Ozzy is king. I don't see where all these star wars-loving dio fans come off saying he's got a better voice than Ozzy. there is absolutely no comparison... Ozzy blows dio out of the water.

Forget this ozzys way better dio will never be better

Dio's voice is way better than Ozzy's. He gives this song a very heavy feel. I'm a huge Ozzy fan but Dio's voice is amazing here! I have to say that I'm very impressed with Dio.

Ozzy could barely ... ( 3 weeks ago by morgannin)

Ozzy could barely sing Megalomania back in '76 just after they released that album. He started losing his voice more than 12 years ago. That said, most Ozzy Sabbath material can't be replicated with Dio's voice. He's got too much aggression and raspy-ness for the Ozzy era melodies. He was perfect, however, for the Dio era material, even the clean, soft vocals, and THAT can never be replicated by anyone else.

I don't know where ... ( 3 weeks ago by morgannin)

I don't know where the fuck you get off that Dio is a hair metal singer. He never played in a hair metal band or anything remotely like one. He played in some of the most influential trad metal bands on earth, and helped revive Sabbath after it fell from grace in '80. Never did he sing glam.

Dio is no Ozzy, the ... ( 2 weeks ago by Ragnorrokk)

Dio is no Ozzy, the presense that Ozzy brings to Sabbath cannot be replaced, I'm sorry but it is no comparison.

and to add to that ... ( 2 weeks ago by Blacksabbathisgod)

and to add to that Ozzypossum, if it were true that sales meant anything about talent then Michael Jackson would be the most talented artist ever because his album Thriller has sold the most in history, and we all know that he does fucking pop shit and it sucks, so their is the proof for all who witness both Ozzypossum and my comments.

dio is way better than ozzzy and he revived black sabbath so think it over

Dio is better ... ( 1 week ago by kolmasjarrari)

Dio is better frontman than Ozzy. But Ozzy's voice just fits better in Sabbath. And theese wasn't the best years of Ronnie. I think they started after Holy Diver :P

i think both Dio ... ( 1 week ago by HeroIVsenior)

i think both Dio and Ozzy had their best points in their own bands rather than in sabbath. But I do like Ozzy Sabbath better Than Dio Sabbath
