This song is an amazing little gem i found whilst surfing youtube. dio did a single with yngwie malmsteen (yes i spelt that wrong ) and made a killer cover of aerosmiths "dream on" which is still blowing my mind. i had to illegaly download it sadly as i couldnt find any legitimate copies online at all :/

Yes,
Heard this song around 10 years ago. Don't know when he recorded it or what the occasion was. He does an outstanding job,
as expected.
thanks for the information anyway.

| It was on the Aerosmith Tribute album "Not the same old song and dance" back in 1999. One of the few cover versions that is a match for the original. |

| It's wonderful. I heard it very much times, but it move me always. I esteem Aerosmith, but it's difficult to remember that it isn't a Dio's song... |

Ronnie had the rare ability to take a song, do it his own way, and make it his own. This is my favorite version of the song. _________________ Check out Al Diamond Phillips/Nevermet on the web

this is my favorite version of 'Dream On' also. Dio upstaged Steven Tyler!  _________________ "Too many flames, with too much to burn, and life's only made of paper." - RJD |
