๐ฆ ๐ธ๏ธ Epic rock legend and he worked with so many producers and artists.
He went to Germany on a whim to start his music and never thought it would end in a career! To have been in Hamburg at the Star Club hearing his initial music ๐ถ starting and feel him finally connect to his career calling!!! Lmk when time travel is invented, safely. This is on my list.
Met him a few times for work events and he was a class act! Heโs one of the first shows my oldest sibling took me too and fostered my love for dark rock. Lita Ford and Ozzy on stage performing If I Close My Eyes Forever was one of the best performances I was blessed to see. Agreed Sideon. It also started convo way back about emotional maturity and trauma in the 80โs. A great mental health love โค๏ธ ballad. Lita ๐ธ is playing on tour this year and returns stateside 4th ish quarter. Anyone going to her LA show ?)
Back to Ozzy and his family, loving thoughts of remembrance and peace to you all, including his fans and everyone who respected this man regardless of his life work, dark humor or career.
Godspeed Sir Ozzy and rest easy.
The fact that so many bands just 2 weeks ago played his final show with him, a major all day show with no pay, as the proceeds were going to charity and Parkinson's research, says a lot about his character and impact he made on a musical and personal level for so many artists. You don't have to like his music, but you cannot argue his legitimacy as an artist and icon.

I happen to think that Ozzy would appreciate the humor of this meme. Hope he's rocking things up regardless of where he ended up (I rather hope he's with Little Nicky)
One of my favorite videos I like to rewatch on YouTube is him telling one of his cats (along with other pets around) to not touch his chicken that he's about to cook. I even made a character of him in MiiTopia with the catchphrase being "Guy Gus Jim Bill whatever".
Loved his cheeky humor
My condolences ๐๐๐ฟ
๐ข๐ข๐ข ozzy is only 2nd to Bowie (donโt come for me. I have a crush on David Bowie. him in the labyrinth was like oh my God. I am biased.) Anyways, my dad used to play Ozzie almost every night during my whole childhood. We pretty much spent everyday of summer in Rio Vista and everyone in the 5 mile an hour zone on the water knew every lyric to every ozzy song ever thanks to us. ๐๐๐ Insanely sad but he raised so much for charity in his final days. Thatโs such a kind way to spend the time you have left. ๐ฅฐ
Too bad no one helped this man with his diagnosis before 2019
I am glad he wasnโt from Australia because Aussie Ozzy is a mouthful.
I wasnโt a huge fan although there were songs I liked. But I really appreciated his unvarnished honesty. He was truly devoid of agendas. Despite his demons and addictions he was a sweet man who embraced, admitted and accepted his weaknesses and warts. That takes guts when half the world is watching, but that endeared him to me.
@TheFunCartel funny, mma fighter george sotiropolous fighting of australia would always say 'aussie aussie aussie' after he won his fights in his post fight speeches. sounded like ozzie ozzie ozzie lol.
RIP Ozzy! ๐๐
I never got to see him in concert, but I sure did enjoy his hits with Black Sabbath and of course when he went solo. ๐
War Pigs is a fave for Me! ๐ค๐
Really sad I didnโt get to make his last performance as I thought about attending but lost track of time and financial means.
He seemed like a really cool dude and I appreciate that he supported Ukraine, being Ukrainian myself.
Rest in Peace, Prince of Darkness. Thank you for your kindness and talent, and for being living proof that anyone is capable of turning their life around for the better, and owning up to their shortcomings.
@CuddlesWithCat tell me about it, financially would've been terrible, but I have an uncle that lives within 15 miles of the venue.
The early Black Sabbath albums reflect amazing musicianship. Tony on guitar invented heavy metal riffs due to his fingers being cut off in an industrial accidents, then you have geezer, one of the most amazing bass players in music history, Bill on drums and Ozzy on vocals. I love the songs like Iron Man and Sweet Leaf that have whatโs basically a jam session right in the middle of the song. So good. Rest in peace, Ozzy.
