It took me years to like this song. But now I see why its perhaps one of the best Rock/Metal albums ever!!! A complete different approach than the previous Sabbath records with Ozzy.
Ozzy being fired in 79 was the best thing that happened to him and Black Sabbath. He went on to reach unheard of heights with his solo career and Sabbath were reborn with Dio, perfecting their act.
NO ONE, including Ozzy and Sabbath, ever accomplished anything even close to as amazing as Sabbath 1970-1979. Everyone made money but after Never Say Die!, the magic was clearly gone.
I'm 72 yrs old now but this track from Sabbeth's Heaven and Hell album still sends shiver's down my spine. Vocalist was the fantastic Ronnie James Dio who replaced Ozzie In 1979 for a while. Dio sold over 47 million records before he died in 2010. Sadly missed.
SDS 4Life hell yes!!! Until my last breath! Dio lives on in my library forever! Iommi master guitarist can’t be beat!!!! Love this LIVE with DIO and Geezer🤟🏼🎸🔥🖤❗️ Rock on my friends!
this album is a fucking masterpiece, each track has a own identity with a deep meaning in the yrics merged with powerful guitar solos and a killer vocals i don't know how to explain i can only say thanks to these guys for released this
@@davesaenz3732 just cant believe it. Lets pretend his songs are bad ( I tottaly disagree). Jimi Hendrix besides creating all the guitar culture, couldnt be a human being. Unfortunately youtube doesnt let Jimi's shows been here, but if you have a good taste for music, like I believe you do, you already know that. In 3 years from "are you experienced" to "eletric ladyland", he left a legacy beyond any other guitarrist would live. I dont know if you are gonna be angry to me, but thats just my opinion. This week I fighted to someone here on youtube so hard because of the Beatles and I dont wanna do it again.
@@fabiodias8263 I had several albums from Jimmy Hendrix as a teen. But it was tony Iommi who really caught my attention. Just like he did for countless that followed. "We used to play every Black Sabbath song"- Eddie Van Halen. "Black Sabbath is a band that has influenced every metal band in the world, including us" -James Hatfield, Metallica. "If anyone says they were not influenced by Sabbath, they are liars" Motley Crew. From Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Pantera, Megadeath, and many more, Black Sabbath was up there with the Beatles. I love Jimmy Hendrix, he has a place in rock history, but what Tony Iommi achieved in creating and paving the way for many more musicians is incredible. The Beatles created modern rock music, the same type that made Sabbath famous. Black Sabbath took that to a new level and heavy metal was official born. Jimmy was good and pushed guitar to another level. A great feat! But I'm looking at overall contributions to music on a grand scale. We may say if it wasn't for the Beatles we may not have Black Sabbath, no Sabbath, no Metallica. No Jimmy, no Jimmy page, but then no guitar no rock music. That is another argument of who made who? There are 40 tracks i like from Sabbath, 4 from Jimmy. You may like 25 from Jimmy and 10 from Iommi. That is personal taste and I respect that. I'm just pointing out how much of a contribution and influential Iommi has been. He's perhaps still very underrated. My favorite Hendrix songs not in any order: All along the watch tower, Hey Joe, Are you experience, and there's one i can't remember, but please give me 5 more so I can understand you better. I've tried listening and I can't get into much of his music. But this has happened with some Thrash metal music, I just don't get it. It all sounds the same. No melody to follow. Let me know what you think. Sometimes I prefer some country music over thrash metal. I encourage you to listen to Mana. They play in Spanish but their music is really up there with some of these greats. I mean amazing guitar work. Its very simple but very very effective. "Why play a thousand notes when you can do it with just a few" Angus Young, ACDC. Rock on 🎸. As a guitar player for 30 years, I've been studying many types of music and artists, but Iommi, Rhandy Rhoads, Van Halen are my top 3. What are your favorites? I like to step out of my comfort zone and start exploring new ways to improve my playing.
@@davesaenz3732 perfect, mate. Loved your answer. I agree and disagree, but respect a lot your opinion. Its sad that from the 4 jimi's songs you like, 2 are not his lyrics lol. Anyway, I love Spanish castle magic, bold as love, third stone from the sun, foxey lady, come on (let the good times roll), purple haze, crosstown traffic... There are lots of jimi's tunes that I love, I cant choose just 5, so probably tomorrow this list is going to change. But anyway, I got your point and I'm glad you are not just one more idiot that ofends people that disagree from their point of view. Edit: I just cant tell you my top 3 guitarists. Probably Jimi Hendrix, Tony iommi and David Gilmour, but it changes sometimes
This song is so powerful, amazing energy both dark and light at the same time. Incredible harmony, melody, drums, singing, you name it. An amazingly overlooked song from one of the bands who invented metal itself.
Gather the wind Though the wind won't help you fly at all Your back's to the wall Chain the sun and it tears away And it breaks you as you run, you run, you run Behind the smile there's danger and a promise to be told You'll never get old Life's fantasy, to be locked away And still to think you're free, you're free, we're free So live for today Tomorrow never comes Die young, die young Can't you see the writing in the air Die young, gonna die young Someone stopped the fair Gather the wind Though the wind won't help you fly at all Your back's to the wall Chain the sun and it tears away And it breaks you as you run, you run, you run So live for today Tomorrow never comes Die young, young Die young, die young Die young, die young, young Die young, die young, die young, die young, die young!
The whole album is a masterwork, but this song really illustrates the energy Dio brought to the band. The interplay between Dio's vocals and Tony's playing is still jaw-dropping 40+ years later.
Tony said nothing but good things about Nicholls in his book, always a pro, always there for work and he did help drive Iommi to work harder and make music when he was down, they were very good friends.
Geoff Nicholls should be on stage, on the spot with the other guys, and not in the shadow, playing in the backstage or from a corner of the stage, because he was a true member of Black Sabbath. He was with Black Sabbath for 25 years, for fuck sake...
I wish more metal bands these days wrote songs that had parts similar to the beautiful, dreamy sounding intro and interlude to this song! Combining parts like that with the heavy sections of the song seems to have become a lost art!
A true masterpeice, with dio's SUPRA-UNIQUE singing, Tony's melodic shredding, Bill ward's AMAZING drumming, and Geezer's insane bass lines, this song is truly a fine work of art!
This song makes me cry because it's really an example of the poetic wizard Dio was. Long Live Rock N Roll Forever. May we never let the olde way of singing die. Swords high for Dio
If there was ever a good reason to have fired Ozzy from Black Sabbath this would be it. I think that some of their best music was written with Ronnie in the band.
Haven't heard this song for years, just watching some reaction videos from vocal coaches listening to Ronnie …. I played this video to remember this great tune, forgot how it softened at 2:10 , now I'm teary eyed …
These are artists and not the shambles of creativity we have today. Rock on to the generations that saw this release and grew up with it. Rock on to younger people like me who enjoy this kind of music.
The 80s was wild man. There were no rules, no restrictions, no judgements. If people liked a song, it got played, didn't matter what genre it was or what tv program. We would see songs like this on Saturday mornings, afternoons and at night. It was an absolutely free decade and anything went
Ronnie James Dio had the most epic rock voice of all time. It warms my heart that he was a fantastic man and friend to many. It makes you love him even more.
I love OZZY with Sabbath, I grew up hearing them fanatically. I LOVE Dio with Sabbath after kicking Ozzy out. Anyone who does not hear the enormous power Dio has and how perfect he fitted on this album and others is someone who has no understanding of talent and the meaning of such a powerful voice Dio has/had. I got to see Sabbath live with Dio at the LA Forum but never saw them with original lineup, was to young. I did briefly meet the original Sabbath at an album signing event in Hollywood when Tower Records was still around, a real treat to shake Bill Wards hand, he got out of his chair and snapped me out from starring at all of them in aw and then I froze when I got to Tony, my guitar influence of all time. Tony sat next to Bill. Whoa.... it was him! IN person! Tony singed my CD then I continued starring in awe, Tony just kept smiling graciously. Bill got up and very politely stood up, stretched his hand for a hand shake and said "Hello there." I snapped out of it quickly. But, Sabbath made a huge mistake when they changed vocalist and later read it was all a bunch of Ozzy's wife's BS trying to make Dio bow to Ozzy and other business politics Dio did not care for. Sharron wanted Sabbath with Dio to open for Ozzy. Dio refused and don't blame him. The music industry is a business also and many people don't know that. Each member has an attorney and own manager, blah blah blah, some even are paid more than others... it becomes a bowl of shit then disputes start and then that ends the magic for who? THE FANS!
Saw Ozzie and Black Sabbath in Fla back in the late 70s. Ozzie got everybody to jump up on their seats and go crazy. 50 years and that's still a great memory. What a Concert!!!
When I was listening to this song decades ago there was no internet to look up the lyrics. I understood most of the words but not all of them. I just realized that he's saying "chain the sun and it tears away to face you as you run." And it makes me love the song even more. Shit's deep. Although my fantasy is to be locked away and still to think I'm free.
Thanks to the guys of Black Sabbath for letting an unknown singer of (elf) songwriter be a member of the team when they most needed it. Who would of guessed he would be the wizard, goblin, nome, see'er that would bring this band back from the grave. 🤘
Yes Iommi is a very talented guitarist ! Becoming a great guitarist after having his fingers cut is just incredible ! And concerning Ronnie, Dio means God in italian, my native language, nothing more to say :) Keep on rockin' ! \m/
One of the greatest songs in the history of music.
Uh...yaw
Right and one of my favorites. Hail DIO.
It took me years to like this song. But now I see why its perhaps one of the best Rock/Metal albums ever!!! A complete different approach than the previous Sabbath records with Ozzy.
Without A Shadow Of A Doubt!!! \m/
Definitely the best Sabbath song

@@aidenpearce2709 Dio has a better voice diff vibe sure diff not better I'm glad it turn out the way it did
@@aidenpearce2709 the last three Sabbath albums with Ozzy were complete trash and nobody cares about them.

I am 31 and will carry this music with me till the end. i hope when I am 72 there will be young people who value this music as we do.
Barry O'Brien I'm 18 and I'm loving Black Sabbath. I'm surprised Dio doesn't get any hate, and I'm glad because this is great.
...and none of you ever felt sorrow you missed your chance to die young? )
Right on!!!!!!!!!
I am 14 years old and this is one of my favourite heavy metal songs.
Sabbath was great with Dio.
Sabbath was great with Ozzy.
And Sabbath was great with Gillan !!!!!!!!!!!
Sabbath was great with Tony Martin
Sabbath was great with all singers
who ?
Sabbath was great overall.
Sabbath would have been great with Justin Bieber. It is Black Sabbath.
I think we shouldn't compare Ozzy and Dio .
Both are amazing, each one in his own style .
Black Sabbath forever !!!
YYY EEE SSSSSSSS! :-) !
Absolutely agree 👏🏻🤘🏻
100% true.
Yes it is metal history.
No no no.
An old friend asked when, nearly simultaneously Ozzy's album 'no more tears' was released
Black Sabbath matters
And we'd do well to all keep that in mind during these trying times, what with c0mm!€$ and fμ©k+@Гds on the loose in all the |¡b+@Гd€d cities.... I for one stand firm in my assertions Black Sabbath does matter
Who else is listening to this 2020 quarentine?🤘
SDS 4Life hell yes!!! Until my last breath! Dio lives on in my library forever! Iommi master guitarist can’t be beat!!!! Love this LIVE with DIO and Geezer🤟🏼🎸🔥🖤❗️ Rock on my friends!
I'm here because I was going through my concert tickets and had the stubs for heaven and hell, and the mob rules
@@razor3683 I saw sabbath March 10th 1982 at the brown county arena in green Bay how about you
@@razor3683 nice I looked at the ticket stub I wanted to see how much the show cost but that part was torn off I'm guessing about 12.50
Now, drunk as hell

Yep...
Im 18 years old and i love black Sabbath
will shine shoes for money

Tony Iommi is the greatest guitar player ever!! Not only did he invented heavy metal, he continues to make awesome music. This is Brilliant.
Jimi will always be the best
@@fabiodias8263 Jimmi has 4 good songs all else is mediocre. Most overrated guitar player im history. Jimmy Page is much better.

@Darkstar Perhaps it true, just an untold fact. May have let the brand shine and stayed in the dark. He's a great band mate for sure.
This song is so powerful, amazing energy both dark and light at the same time. Incredible harmony, melody, drums, singing, you name it. An amazingly overlooked song from one of the bands who invented metal itself.

Gather the wind
Though the wind won't help you fly at all
Your back's to the wall
Chain the sun and it tears away
And it breaks you as you run, you run, you run
Behind the smile there's danger and a promise to be told
You'll never get old
Life's fantasy, to be locked away
And still to think you're free, you're free, we're free
So live for today
Tomorrow never comes
Die young, die young
Can't you see the writing in the air
Die young, gonna die young
Someone stopped the fair
Gather the wind
Though the wind won't help you fly at all
Your back's to the wall
Chain the sun and it tears away
And it breaks you as you run, you run, you run
So live for today
Tomorrow never comes
Die young, young
Die young, die young
Die young, die young, young
Die young, die young, die young, die young, die young!

Tears away to face you as you run.

Damn... That verse hits it every single time...
The best Black Sabbath album ever ❤️
No
Imo no. The best album ever made is Master of Reality
That's a weird way to say Vol. 4
I love this at 60..best times 80s concerts ...learn to rock!
Yes
Just how the fuck can one downvote this song? It's simply unimaginable.
Ozzy always respected Dio...... not the other way around, unfortunately......
because all the fools arrived nowadays
Because, if you listen to fools...the mob rules. And apparently, there are many fools in that group of people.
Dino n, I thought they sailed away.
This thread is hilarious hahaha

Don't know why I found that freaking hilarious, but thanks for the laugh Daniel V. Rock on, you have good taste in music already.
Lol
liar. hahaha😁😁!!
Lmao I'm like still in the womb and I love this.
Oh piss off
This is a masterpiece from one of the best rock albums ever!
This song has some of the best lead guitar I’ve heard. So many chills. All hail Tony!!
That's right.He never gets the credit he's due.
True🤘
Sabbath was hell with Ozzy and Sabbath was heaven with Dio ... they Showed us the two sides of metal - Devilish and Heavenly.
Agreed...Love for the both era
This really is the best sabbath, rock on dio, rip
Just read a story by toni, when ozzy was so out of it, and then came dio!
But here is a fact Ozzy never wrote anything for Sabbath it was mainly Iommi, Geezer also Ward
Marin Dimitrov probably because Ozzy's more suited to doom metal themes while Dio's more of a power metal themed guy
if anyone ever asks you, why you love rock music..... don't even bother to explain, just play this song......
Heavy metal *
Heavy Metal is Rock.......

R..I.P Geoff Nicholls, who played keyboards with Black Sabbath from 1979-2004, has died. He was 68.
Hats off to your remembrance! Geoff was the reason sabbath made music after Ozzy and even during. He was like Jon lord behind the scenes ahaha
Hafta look this up.

Listening to this makes me feel like I’m on a time machine. I close my eyes and it’s 1980 again. What a fucking great decade
I was listening to this in my room when my dad kicked the door down so the rest of the family could hear it better.

Sorry buddy, that didn't happen.

Yeeaahhh....learn from GODS of the music art shit future generations !!

I've never heard a more wall-to-wall guitar magic song in my life. Iommi went off on this one.
He was obviously being influenced by EVH at the time, on Mob Rules too
Huge.... still unbelievably good
This song makes me cry because it's really an example of the poetic wizard Dio was. Long Live Rock N Roll Forever. May we never let the olde way of singing die. Swords high for Dio
My favorite song from this album hands down
If there was ever a good reason to have fired Ozzy from Black Sabbath this would be it. I think that some of their best music was written with Ronnie in the band.
One of the greatest songs from the greatest metal album
I cry every time l listen to this Masterpiece 🤘

Sick guitar work. Doesn't matter if he was a Malmsteen or a Rhodes--he was perfect for Sabbath and these songs.
Veronica Bellucci agreed music is not a competition.
@@littlechicken963 Someone should write a quiz where you have to decide the guitarist based on just 3-5 seconds of play
when they ask me 'what is heavy metal?'' i will show them this album!!!
anger in the voice he was the best
I wouldn't say it was anger.
Its agression .
This song is fire out of control
Ronnie James Dio had the most epic rock voice of all time. It warms my heart that he was a fantastic man and friend to many. It makes you love him even more.
Undoubtedly Black Sabbath is the pioneer of heavy metal irrespective of the changes made to their vocalists.
Don't tell Geezer. He said in an interview once that he disliked the term "heavy metal".
This song is A M A Z I N G!!! RIP Ronnie James DIO.. Nine Years
Best song Sabbathe ever wrote. Easily. Iommi guitars are great and lyrics perfect.
Their metal sounds like no one else's metal. It's both specialized and accessible. They're the Federer of metal.

Awesome vocals

This is a masterpiece, but it just doesn't grasp the power of when Ozzy was in the band. Plus, Ozzy is the voice of Black Sabbath.

I just realized that he's saying "chain the sun and it tears away to face you as you run." And it makes me love the song even more. Shit's deep. Although my fantasy is to be locked away and still to think I'm free.
What's a great song...die young.
A master piece from Black Sabbath
Thanks to the guys of Black Sabbath for letting an unknown singer of (elf) songwriter be a member of the team when they most needed it. Who would of guessed he would be the wizard, goblin, nome, see'er that would bring this band back from the grave. 🤘
Dio, the best Heavy Metal voice . We miss every single day. You always be Most Powerfull voice.
Thanks, song. You'll never get old either
This is heavy metal!
Love how the bass goes progressively crazy as the guitar solo grows. Butlers & Iomm are genious.
I loved Black Sabbath before with Ozzy, but this is hands down, their best complete record. Every single song is amazing, but one.
I'm 39 year's old and when I was a teenager I always blasted black sabbath this music is a he'll of alot better than shit people call music now a days
ten or eleven years ago that solo changed my life and made the person, music lover and musician that i am today
Id listen to the last 30 seconds of this song for the rest of my life
A super song of Black Sabbath and one of their best with the best voice of metal until nowadays.
You can never go wrong with this masterpiece.
I'm a highway staaaaa...oh this is another song...hm))
Dio was truly a God \m/
