Heaven and Hell
 
Outrageous I know, I like different things!!!
Although you voted for Last in Line then complained it was out in another round >.>
I haven't strategically voted (I do prefer both the sabbath tracks), but if I was going to.. voting Stargazer would be the way to go because it clearly wasn't going to lose the round, and meant I didnt have to vote for another track. Fortunately, I didn't have to make that decision.

:P
 
Stargazer wins the RJD survivor!

I must say that the top 10 is very close to what I was expecting. Although to be fair, another 5-6 songs could easily have made it as well. Overall quite happy with the top 10. Although one of the surprises (I feel at least) in the top 10 was that The Last in Line survived for longer than Holy Diver.
 
Thanks for hosting. Nice to see that Dio's second album did at least as good (or even better!) than his debut.
 
thanks from me as well. (although I would have liked to see the later solo albums included)
and Foro, Last in Line is a great, great album.
But Dio's first is the best he has ever been associated with.
Unless it is Heaven and Hell.
:p
 
Would've liked Heaven and Hell to win it all better, but the result is still fine. H&H is my 5th favorite song of all time while Stargazer is 7th.

Thanks for hosting !
 
Only 3 from my top 10 in the eventual top10.

Whereas some are pleased Last in Line made it so far, I can't believe it made it top10 at all :P
 
Thanks for hosting Badger! Apparently you do give a shit after all :D.

But in all seriousness, this thread finally coaxed me into getting some more Dio, that and some well-placed pressure from certain quarters *cough* CI *cough*.
Next time there's a survivor I hope to be able to participate in it more fully. Heaven and Hell for the win! (I know Stargazer won but meh, gotta show support).

So I listened to Stargazer last night on full blast before going to bed. I take back the above statement. Stargazer is the best RJD song. :blush:
