Too many to pick one…

I'll skip Crazy Train and Iron Man since so many will add those (and they are great songs)

Flying High Again
I Don't Know
Suicide Solution
Over The Mountain
Bark at the Moon
Ultimate Sin
No More Tears
Mama I'm Coming Home
Crazy Babies
Demon Alcohol
Perry Mason



Crazy Babies is awful.

Rock n Roll rebel is underrated

Crazy Babies is just awful. He should have axed that song from the album.

Shot In The Dark was overplayed and not that strong.

For me, he never came close to matching those first two solo albums. But he still put out some good stuff over the years.

Never been an Ozzy fan but I loved how much mileage he got from his persona.

Like this commercial -- with another musical artist who gets a lot of mileage from HIS persona.

Whenever I hear this I instantly think of NOLA by Down, a favorite album of my teenage years:



Down may have ripped off that song/band, but they did a great job of it.

I love "Close My Eyes Forever" because I'm a Lita fan too but the story of how the song was written is typical Ozzy. Basically, they hung out in the studio all night together (completely unplanned), getting loaded, noodling around, and writing the lyrics. The next morning, they realized what they had, recorded it later, and it went to #8 on the charts.

man I listened to this album on the way home today; outside of some of the obvious tracks, I hadn't heard those deep cuts since the 90s. It's crazy, as soon as certain parts come from some of the songs, like the first verse here and chorus, I still knew the words and melody, even specific drum fills and guitar licks.

This is OUITSTANDING! Please watch this.

How could any artist not be moved by seeing this many kids do this at such a young age?

Big praise to their teacher!

And Ozzy is so great with them.

RIP, Oz man.

Most of the younger generatio likely knows Ozzy from the reality show, which happened to be filmed during one his worst alcoholic spirals. I remember thinking he was a bumbling idiot but he was actually a very humble and smart person. RIP

There is a report that Phil Collins is not doing well.

Dairy of a Madman is an incredible album. No bad songs on it. The next release after RR's death, Speak of the Devil, is such a great album too. I like most of those versions of Black Sabbath songs more than the originals. It would be one of my favorite live albums ever, but you can't really call Ozzy's vocals live because he went back in the studio and overdubbed them. They need to put Speak of the Devil on some streaming services. Seems hard to find.

Brad Gillis does great work on that album. He had to learn all those songs quickly and he wasn't a metal player and did well.

Symptom of the Universe is such a cranking metal song, and Brad just wears out his Floyd Rose on that one.

Sorry but this is so good - one of the best mashups ever.

Tik Tok but worth it.
