Thanks for stopping by for my Dio spoof! If you enjoyed the video, click this link to subscribe to my channel: ua-cam.com/channels/X7srdaLLEXgBV3Zf8lYajA.html And don't miss the Metallica Master of Puppets spoof "Master of Christmas" we did the following year! ua-cam.com/video/TYcyQcvrnJs/v-deo.html
Absolutely 💯 wicked cool. Seen Dio in 1983 and also in 2002 in Charlotte North Carolina with the Scorpions and Deep Purple. Thank you for this video. Well done!!
Just stumbled across this and, as a big Dio, was sceptical to start, but this was great! Fun story and graphics and solid vocals: you're not Dio, but no one else was or ever will be. Great job!
Wow, what a great video! I love it! It’s well sung with great lyrics. My kind of Christmas song. This is a nice way to keep Ronnie’s memory alive every year.
WOW!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!! DIO FAN HERE AND I'M LOVING THIS!!!🤩🥰❤ day after Christmas 🎄 2024 and I'm barely seeing this??🤔excellent Christmas song!!!🎅☃️saving it to my playlist!!!RIP DIO!!!🙏🏼🕊🌹🎤🤘🏼🥰❤🤍❤
Agreed! Maybe "It's always a Mystery" is even more mainstream. But it was slightly cheesy in an 80's way, moreso than this song. I still love it though.
It was played on 99.9 KISW Seattle. Probably no others though. Let them know and I will send the file! Or let me know where to send it :) Our Metallica Christmas spoof was also played there (check it out on my channel as well).
@BrianHunsakerMusic 98.9 The Rock and even 101 the Fox out of KCMO and KSHE 95 out of St Louis would LOVE this one. I would have as well growing up in the 1980s and thank you for making me feel like a kid again. Also, I hope you had a Merry Christmas and may you have a Happy New Year.
@@elijahwilson1422 You are welcome. Ok, I'll send it over! Christmas music isn't played on Dec 27th and after though, hopefully they'll remember to play it next year :)
+Brian Hunsaker Of course it doesn't sound just like Dio...that would be sacrilege... but it IS badass in it's own right, and I bet Ronnie woulda loved it too!!!

Absolutely 💯 wicked cool. Seen Dio in 1983 and also in 2002 in Charlotte North Carolina with the Scorpions and Deep Purple. Thank you for this video. Well done!!
Thank you, I've seen Dio on multiple occasions, and was in a Dio tribute band for 2 years! My fave.
Thanks for the support guys! This was a ton of fun to work on and turned out better than we imagined!
This is the greatest Christmas song I have come across during my 50+ years of walking this earth...
Wow, please share it with whoever may enjoy!
Billy squires is The best. This is great though
Thank you.
Brought a tear of laughter to my eye, and a respectable tribute to the legendary RJD.
Thank you! We love Dio!
I was smiling the whole time I listened. I loved it. Nice tribute to Ronnie.
Thank you!
Very well done Ronnie would approve
I'm glad to hear that!
Just stumbled across this and, as a big Dio, was sceptical to start, but this was great! Fun story and graphics and solid vocals: you're not Dio, but no one else was or ever will be. Great job!
Thank you, we did our best!
The lyrics are amazing
Thank you, they were done mostly by a friend of mine!

Weird Al Yokivik would be PROUD!!
I like me some Weird Al. And Dio!
Dude you sound just like dio. Amazing job.
Wow, thank you!
Perfect voice!!!!! ❤
This great !!!!!!
Thank you for the listen and the support!
As a Christmas song should be...
Metal Christmas. Thank you!
Awesome
Thank you and merry Christmas!
Haha great job. I am impressed with the solo. Very close to Viv
Thanks!
Totally enjoyed it. \m/ 🎅\m/
Thank you for the watch!
this is great!
Thank you.
The singer is Chris Rush. You can find him on Facebook.
Why am i only discovering this now? Damn you algorithm!
Haha, that's my most popular video! The original quality metal Christmas spoof (as far as I'm aware).
@BrianHunsakerMusic that kinda makes sense. Rainbow is probably one of (if not the) most mainstream and accessible Dio song.
Agreed! Maybe "It's always a Mystery" is even more mainstream. But it was slightly cheesy in an 80's way, moreso than this song. I still love it though.
Amazing Band!
Thank you very much!
Great release, thumbs up:D
Thank you!
Pretty cool!!
Glad you enjoyed!
It's Very funny. I like this.
Glad to tickle your funny bone! Merry Xmas!
Rest In Power ✝️ Ronnie.
Ronnie was the best. Thank you.
I'm actually surprised I never heard this on the local Hard Rock and Metal fm station.
It was played on 99.9 KISW Seattle. Probably no others though. Let them know and I will send the file! Or let me know where to send it :) Our Metallica Christmas spoof was also played there (check it out on my channel as well).
@BrianHunsakerMusic 98.9 The Rock and even 101 the Fox out of KCMO and KSHE 95 out of St Louis would LOVE this one. I would have as well growing up in the 1980s and thank you for making me feel like a kid again. Also, I hope you had a Merry Christmas and may you have a Happy New Year.
@@elijahwilson1422 You are welcome. Ok, I'll send it over! Christmas music isn't played on Dec 27th and after though, hopefully they'll remember to play it next year :)
Is it too late to hire you guys to play my Christmas party?
Yes. This was a one-time thing though. I was in a Dio tribute band years ago, and we did awesome.
@BrianHunsakerMusic....you sound just like DIO 🎉🖤🤘🏿🥵🔥
Thank you for the compliment! Some of us here were in a Dio tribute band for 2 years.
'Dat vocals vibrato!
Yes, he's incredible!
He's got the voice down
Lots of practice! Thank you.
Beats the STUFFING out of "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen." You do know that Ronnie got railroaded into recording that?
I heard that yes. Thanks!
So rad! 😂😀😎
Thanks!
@c4sb2008, thank you for the listen. Hopefully we'll do something similar for next year!
Shit, you're better than I thought, nice
Thanks for the listen and the comment!
By any chance would this be the same Chris Rush who was A dj at WTOS here in maine?
Nope, he's in WA.
I'm new to Ronnie James Dio's music. What song is this spoofed from?
Rainbow in the dark. It's probably his most famous song ever.
@@BrianHunsakerMusic I'll check that out. Thank you!!!
BTW: totally enjoyed this song. Great work!!!
@@sierratrilogy sure thing! I'm coming out with original music next year! Stay tuned.
Beavis and Ham Salad! Good job! It's your homie! I need a gallon of milk!
You, get me some top ramen!
I like it XD
Glad you approve!
Sounds like Bob Rivers and Spike
That was the idea. Bob never responded when I sent it. We all thought it was worthy.
LMFAO AWESOME!!!!
Much fun was had in the recording of this!
❤️
Thank you for the listen and comment!
That was awesome ronnies jam in his grave to this
I hope so. He was the king.
@darktonic Rock it Eric!!
Where's Holly Diver when we need him most?
Haha, that could be another song, thanks for the idea!
Omg 😂😂😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for the listen!
OMG!!!.....Noooooo.....i mean......hmmmm......noooo!!!...so confused and torn right now
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dam,cool,1
Thanks for the support!
lol,this should have more views
It continues to rack them up :)
sounds ALOT like Chris Jericho and Fozzy!!!
Haha, yes. We like him too!
¡☆☆☆ Filthy ☆☆☆! FLEAS ON MY BASS and fleas on my dog.
Thank you. Haha Flea is a great bassist
How grim at the end...lol
Haha, yes. It was a lot of fun!
This is really good, but sounds more like Bruce Dickinson than Dio.
I agree. We had fun doing it for sure!
Brandon Pruitt, he is close but to say he sounds JUST LIKE Dio is wrong. NOBODY sounds like Dio! Never will. good job though
You should check out Jorn Lande and the singer from Astral Doors. They sometimes sound just like Dio :)
@@BrianHunsakerMusicdefinitely I have jorn music and song covers on my phone . He ford some amazing tribute songs to dio without a doubt .
@debbieathy5204 Absolutely!
@ thanks for agreeing with me
@machiwoomiapoo, doo guy captain crunch!
I actually liked this. It was A LOT better than Corey Taylor's cover (which is how I cam across this.)
Thanks Rhyno! We are huge Dio fans all.
Now I am sad.
Don't be sad. We have so much from Dio :)
Rambo & a duck 🏹🦆
Hahaha, thank you for the watch
I let ya know if I think of a good idea :)
Thank you!
not Dio, still funny :)
Haha, thanks!
Long live...Ronnie
He was the best!
Dude you sound just like dio. Amazing job.
Are you bloody daft? Your tone deaf for sure. Sounds nothing like Master DIO. This fool needs to be drawn and quartered!!
B Karlow I agree, doesn't sound much like Dio. Did you like the song though?
It was ok. I guess I am to much of a DIO purist.
Doesn't sound like Dio but it's pretty fucking neat in my opinion
+Brian Hunsaker Of course it doesn't sound just like Dio...that would be sacrilege... but it IS badass in it's own right, and I bet Ronnie woulda loved it too!!!
