Dio has mentioned his time as Black Sabbath lead singer as inspiration for the lyrics. Along with Sabbath drummer Vinny Appice, he formed Dio in 1983. Along with "Holy Diver," this is one of Dio's most popular songs. It's heavy on keyboards, which helped make the song more accessible to a Pop audience, something Van Halen did with great success on their album 1984. VH1 named this #13 on their list of the Greatest Metal Songs. (thanks, Michael - Toledo, OH)
