O músico norte-americano, conhecido pelo seu trabalho como vocalista nas bandas: ELF, RAINBOW, Black Sabbath, DIO, e o "Hear 'n Aid". E recentemente, envolvido com o HEAVEN & HELL, um projecto que incluiu também ex-companheiros de Black Sabbath, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler e Vinny Appice. Lançaram o primeiro e único album do grupo, "The Devil You Know", em 28 de abril de 2009.

Dio, era amplamente reconhecido como um dos cantores mais poderosos do heavy metal, conhecido pela sua voz poderosa e consistente e por popularizar o gesto "horns of metal" lml

Recentemente, o estado de saúde de Ronnie James Dio agravara-se, levando ao cancelamento da digressão dos Heaven and Hell, que contemplava um concerto no Optimus Alive!10.

Foi no dia 16-05-2010, que Wendy Dio (esposa da lenda do Metal), anunciou oficialmente a morte do vocalista, vitima de cancro no estômago:

"Today my heart is broken, Ronnie passed away at 7:45 a.m. [on Sunday] 16th May. Many, many friends and family were able to say their private goodbyes before he peacefully passed away.

"Ronnie knew how much he was loved by all.

"We so appreciate the love and support that you have all given us.

"Please give us a few days of privacy to deal with this terrible loss.

"Please know he loved you all and his music will live on forever."

Fica aqui a homenagem ao vocalista .
Stay Metal!!

"DIE YOUNG"

Gather the wind
Through the wind won't help you fly at all
Your back's to the wall
Then chain the sun
And then it turns around to face you
As you run, you run, you run 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 faire...

Behind a 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
You're free

Gather the wind
Though the wind won't help you fly at all
Your back's to the wall
Chain the sun
And it turns around to face 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, Die young, Die

Ronnie James Dio.
Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell (1980)
