anti-ozzy PRO-DIO

to daryl....


comparing apple and pear is like comparing yellow and red. Nothing to compare.

maybe you couldn't see my analogy. do read more books.


ozzy thinks he's some great ass Prince of Darkness who is too good for a christmas carol. wtf is with his attitude. DIO's a great guy who loves kids and his fans. And like a fellow softie said - He's was born for METAL.

tt's wad you call a Vocalist. he has the stage presence and the essence.


note: gone for one day doesn't mean not open to arguments..


Yea i'm not a fan of ozzy. up yours.
 
you are clearly a douche. are you oblivious to what everyone is saying?
are you devoid of intelligence and intellect?

I feel stupid to even comment on this thread. But how can anyone not like Ozzy period Sabbath? Sure Ozzy wasn't the best vocalist but he made the band what it was.

Up to this day it still puzzles me HOW THE HELL HE did tt. maybe he sold something in return. Beats me. seems like it. but i can't say for sure. crazy train. he killed the song.

HAHA. You are such a joke. Clearly i can see what type of cards you're playing here. You make no sense. Beat it. get to the point. throw me something factual.

You make me sick.
 
You realise that everyone is trying to tell you similar points but you appear rather oblivious to that and i wonder why.

Iommi said in an interview himself that ozzy and dio were 2 different people. Ozzy for instance would sing ON the key as compared to Dio who sang ABOVE the key. ( This doesnt mean Dio sang OUT of key. )

If Ozzy really sucked as you put it then all his fans must be deaf or something and only your ears are accurate and then all those who proclaimed him one of the forefathers of metal must be mental too.

As you said that was in your opinion that ozzy sucked. So basically this is all opinionated. Hence no matter what others say if your mind is already made up then there is no point in tryin to sway your opinion.

Hence this thread is a freaking waste of time as opinions will only clash with opinions, both holding steadfast to their own ideas, leading to arguing, leading to a waste in bandwith.

K admin u can now close this thread.

hahahahhahaha i knew the kid in you would flare up and give me a retarded response and HEY i got a pm from you now! And, no im not a vulgar person, and besides, vulgarities are overrated.

Okayyy, firstly do tell me what cards i'm playing, because i never intended to play poker with you. AND i dont gamble.

Secondly, i make perfect sense. you create a thread, you give your points, sure that is okayyy UNTIL you utterly disregard the fact that everyone is entitled to an opinion of their own, and this is when you should ask why you started the thread in the first place.

SOFT, being a forum, is obviously for the friendly discussion of music, and i can infer that you clearly do not get what forums are used for. Again, every one has their own opinions and perspectives, and your posts are utterly biased and IF you aren't open to the humble opinions of the other forum-dwellers like us, you should never have started the thread. WHY? BECAUSE your pea-brain is intolerant of our opinions, and since your mind is set, what's the purpose of creating a thread, if you aren't keen to hear the other side of what we think?

And then you ask me to throw at you something factual.
Hmmm, why do i need facts when i can see that your rep is severely depleted?
Again it shows that other forum dwellers do not agree with how you put your points across, and your utter lack of respect for other user's opinions.

Now i shall give MY humble opinion.
i like dio, i never really liked ozzy, but over time, ozzy's vocals grew onto me.
crazy train is sucha classic cos of ozzy's irritating cute voice imho haha.

next time, learn to respect other people's opinions.
 
"comparing apple and pear is like comparing yellow and red. Nothing to compare."
that would just mean that your comparison is skin deep.:rolleyes:
it is possible to compare the 2, just that it would be more difficult to find the similarities than the differences, not saying that there is no similarity at all.


"maybe you couldn't see my analogy. do read more books."
i don't see the direct link between the 2 sentence. perhaps it's your weak expression that cause your analogy to be misinterpreted?


"ozzy thinks he's some great ass Prince of Darkness who is too good for a christmas carol."
may i remind you that that's what you think of ozzy, and NOT what ozzy thinks? because you're definitely not ozzy.

"DIO's a great guy who loves kids and his fans."
uh so? does that make him a great awesome " kick ass anytime anywhr" singer?


"And like a fellow softie said - He's was born for METAL. "
don't mind me saying, but quoting "a fellow softie", no matter how senior/important that softie is, wouldn't make your point credible.


"tt's wad you call a Vocalist. he has the stage presence and the essence."
once again, different people, different standards. that's what YOU think a vocalist should be.what is the definition of "the essence" ?

"Yea i'm not a fan of ozzy. up yours."
honestly, seriously? totally unnecessary assertion.
 
There REALLY is no need to compare ozzy to dio, you might as well compare layne staley's vocals to alexi laiho's with that logic the TS is going with.

Ozzy with Iommi = Black sabbath
Iommi with Dio = Heaven and Hell

The only reason why theres even any comparison between ozzy and dio is because they both fronted Black Sabbath. Why not compare ozzy with Ian Gillan? or Dio with Ian Gillan, he also fronted Black Sabbath? Theres so much flexibility in music that you simply can't compare two musicians and declare one the superiour, because in music there's no such thing as the one single right way.

I'm gonna compare Dio to Jonas Brothers, red and yellow nothing to compare right?
 
wah long long time never come to SOFT then still got such stuff.

Anyway, im a Dio fan but i still give Ozzy my respects for his works in early Sabbath.

why be so negative about it?

Its rock and roll kiddo, nothings right and nothings wrong, we walk the line on the edge of everything.

In rock and roll its a chicken and egg thing, hard to pin point pioneers of genre.

Onstage persona and off stage , people are always different. Not that they are faking it onstage.

Its like when you are playing soccer, you are not the same off field but you are still you.

Not bragging, ive met both guys and both are great people.
 
I used to think Ozzy was not too great a vocalist, because I started listening to him late and listened to covers of his songs before actually listening to much music from him.

Then I got the first few albums of Sabbath, and the rest is history. I can't imagine how different my musical viewpoint would be if Ozzy never existed, that's how freaking important I think he is to Metal and Rock music in general.

If you think Ozzy sucks, then you think these songs listed below suck, and you are obviously just a troll. And all respect to Dio, but when he came over to Singapore the other time I was pretty disappointed it wasn't Ozzy. Ozzy wrote some stuff I feel tend to open my mind to, stuff like drugs and war and the evils of the world. Dio has written on fairly broad subjects too, but I always remember him as making Sabbath a sort of medieval castle and dragon band that kinda turned me off. I know that's not all the music in Heaven and Hell or Dehumanizer or Mob Rules but I don't know why I feel that way. I say again, Dio rules but I just prefer Ozzy though I love em both.

Once again, awesome music

Anyway, TS is a troll, so don't bother wasting your breath with him too much.

wow...wad a great guy.
 
Lets not forget his solo work, my favs blizzard of ozz, diary of a madman, No Rest for the Wicked and No More Tears
 
Ozzy's charm is in his everyday-man-turned-possessed persona. A really believable, down-to-earth frontman who is earnest, sings from the heart and not overly-technical.
Which really suited his material in Sabbath n solo.
Thank goodness he didn't sing about castles and dragons.

i think the concept here is not as straight forward,

comparing ozzy and dio would be like comparing two different things, because the two of them emphasise different thing in their whole package.

where as ozzy is, first and foremost, a FRONTMAN, his antiques and larger than life persona comes first. singing would be somewhere in the middle of his most important lists.

ask an ozzy fan, sure some will say his singing is great, but most of them will tell you, 'Singing!? man, this is ozzy! THE prince of darkness!!'

dio on the other hand, although is also a frontman, has singing at the top of his priority as a package to the audience.

that is why during each singer's era, the band sound so different. comparing them would be comparing different animals from different species.

a similar comparison can be found in Van Halen. we're talking about Roth era and Van Hagar era.
