Excellent call. Haven't see that in a while.

 

I will close with Dio when he was with Sabbath

Ok so the question is - Is Dio the greatest metal singer of all time? Better than Dickinson, Ozzy, Halford?

For my money. Yes.

That's a tough call. Dio and Dickinson gave the best live performances that I ever saw. Those are my top two.

Man movie soundtracks with big time hits were such a part of the decade.  I might have missed it, but has anyone hit on Visionquest yet?

I might have had a crush on Madonna, and it's possible that it peaked with her appearance in this video.  The Material Girl was great, but looked a little too refined for me.  Nightclub-Madonna was more my speed...

Another one from the Visionquest soundtrack, the video maybe wasn't anything special, but the song is just so freaking cool:

And finally, for those involved in the Ronnie James Dio discussion, I always dug this one from the Visionquest soundtrack:

 

 

Not going to contend it's the best, but you guys suck for not posting this (I didn't see it, anyway).

 

James Todd also responsible for one of the more memorable unplugged performances, at 12:45

Asia was cool because they usually tried to do something original in their videos.  Think of how much tougher it must have been in 1983 to create the visual effects of those ever-changing TV monitors.

I liked the Raiders theme in Don't Cry, too.

UTCzech bringing it.  Very nice. I don't know a whole lot of folks that remember Donnie Iris.

 I remember both Ah Leah and Love is Like a Rock but this is the first time I've ever seen a video of him.  The visual does not match the voice at all.  Looks a lot more like Morris Gardenia than Donnie Iris.

Such a cool song.

I remember hearing a radio ("Rockline"?) interview with Tom Cochrane where he said he heard of the death of John Lennon on his way to the studio to record the vocal.

I think that was kind of that late 70's/early 80's "Buddy Holly" look revival, Elvis Costello, Marshall Crenshaw, Donnie Iris all had it.

My all time favorite video and I have no idea why.

 

 

We had a Science teacher who'd let us watch videos at the end of the week if we'd been good.  His little treat because he knew none of us had MTV.  It was during this video that I was informed by said teacher that John Fogerty had a band before he went out on his own.  I don't remember much from the class, but I remember that.
