Sadly, he was one of the first to realize the Corporate Media and its role in shaping the Corporate Mentality, we now live in, and we didn't get it then, or sadly still, most still don't get that it is a Rich vs Poor Dichotomy not a Right vs Left. Low and Middle Class Dems/Rep. care about the same things, but most have been brainwashed to follow the Corporate Mind Molding. Kudos to you Ozzy, and damn sorry we didn't get it then.
Gregory McLean ikr too bad wars will never end as long as there are crazy leaders in the world. but people gotta blame the us army and its soldiers because i see that alot from the hippies. If they want us to retreat from wars then they should know all the innocent people that now are unprotected when the us army isnt there anymore
I so wish I hadn’t bought into the scaremongering as I teenager. I loved this song when I first heard it and wanted to buy the album but was afraid of all the Satan stuff. 30-some year’s later and I have been blown away by him and Black Sabbath. They’re awesome!
The guitar player is Randy Rhoads. He died very young in a plane crash. Ozzy never got over losing him. I encourage you to listen to Suicide Solution Live off of the Tribute album to get a real idea of how good Randy was.
Ozzy is of the generation that took blues rock and created heavy metal. He started his carrer in Liverpool England around 1966. Yep that long ago. Still rocking. Randy Rhodes taught his current lead guitarist Zakk Wylde to play. He's even fronting his own band Black Label Society. Ozzy started with the band calling themselves Earth. Changed to Black Sabbath. 1st hits in 1970. Solo career started in the 1980 with the Album Blizzard of Oz. 40 years of music. There's such deep meaning to the music. Bark at the moon another great album.
I still remember the day when we heard he died. 1st period typing class (yes, I'm that old). Me and all my metalhead friends left after 1st period, went to a friends house, smoked out and listened to randy the entire day.
Wrong... HE WAS THE GREATEST .Seen him live twice and have seen all the great ones yes even Stevie Ray Vaughn ,M. Friedman , Dime , Van halen , Yngwie , A.Vandenberg etc. etc. etc....
Let's not get carried away... Ozzie has aged and mellowed but we ARE talking about the same "walking pharmacy" that bit into a live bat at a concert... A guy that bit the heads of of two doves... Not in concert, but in the middle of a business meeting with CBS record executives simply because he was not happy with a proposed deal... The same man that snorted a line of ants and drank his own urine just before lapping up the urine of Motly Crue bass player Nikki Sixx from a concrete patio. There was also the time he was charged with trying to kill his wife Sharon... He and his "voices" decided that she "Needed to die" just before he attempted to strangle her to death preempting their separation. Ozzy has stated that I" regret trying to kill Sharon,... It wasn't my plan to go out, get pissed, try to strangle her and wake up in jail." The Endless psychotic tales would be enough to fill 2 best sellers. Ozzy may not have been the Satanic Prince of darkness that his character portrayed, but I don't think he'd be my 1st choice for a cuddle buddy. ;-) "Alice cooper", on the other hand was literally a show of theatrics with the lead character being played by a seemingly normal, immensely talented genius named Vincent Damon Furnier. "Alice" gets my vote for most cuddly shock rocker.
@AngryPostmanSthlm2 -actually, I knew those few instances and quite a few more to be credible... This IS UA-cam so I checked before posting and only listed the events talked about by OZZY, himself in interviews. No "fake" news or rumors on the bat, the doves OR grabbing Sharon by the neck in an attempt to kill her. They came out of Ozzie's mouth in a very sober interview. As for the Urine... That was recently under scrutiny due to the recent Motley Crue biography and Netflix release. Was it just an added artistic "liberty"? That has been a popular question... According to sources that were there, It happened and the band (Crue) is still sticking to that story when asked about it. I'm not sure what sources you'd suggest, but I think I'm doin' ok here. ;-) Anyway... I was in the middle of a headphone date with old Zappa Vinyl, but if ya wanna blast some Rhoads... I'm all in.
@common logic. Yes. It's all for show. The shock factor. He was a genius at it. He knew it would be talked about for years to come. It worked. I dont agree with it, but it worked; hence, we are talking about it right now. He solidified himself in history; however, you cant dismiss his message in his music. Pure and simple. You can look at the face value of his past actions, or you can dissect it on a psychological level. The majority of people live off face value. Life is much deeper and complex than what's on the shallow surface. Use some common logic.
@@GS-kx8wc - I'm not sure you should be questioning my logic as I don't think you are even comprehending my comment. I was a HUGE Ozzy fan before you were even conceived. My first (real) concert was Ozzy's last tour with Sabbath in '79. I saw at LEAST one show from every one of his tours between the years of 1982 and Ozzfest in 1998 after which I started spending a lot of time out of the U.S for work. I've seen a good handful of his shows since, and have even FLOWN to attend his show at the Red Rocks Amphitheater the day before my wedding, foregoing the rehearsal and dinner. I've taken my Daughter to no less than 10 concerts or festivals that featured Ozzy. Funny enough I even had a stray mixed terrier in the late 80's that was NAMED Ozzy. I TRY not to read autobiographies or watch movies about my favorite artists with the exception of some dead ones like Johnny Cash as the hype gets in the way of the music. That being said, I've picked up just a "few" bits of knowledge in my years of experience as a fan and my 40+ years as a musician... Maybe you'd like to explain something to me about Ozzy or the plethora of icons that I spent my early years watching from grassy hills and beer covered seats... Not a 5 inch touch screen. **"Life is much deeper and complex than what's on the shallow surface."???** Sh#t... Did you just plagiarize a Dollar Store greeting card? If you're going to get philosophical and quote things that you don't understand, try some Ronny James Dio lyrics. Your odds of finding one that actually means something are much better.
...and? I look young, but I am much older and wiser than you are assuming. It's a gift for being intelligent and a lady who doesnt lose her temper. I need to prove nothing to no one. Instead of being so defensive, use common logic, manners, and a little poise. We are all adults here, and can converse in a meaningful way without losing our shit. At least I am hopeful we are. I liked your screen name, thus I used it. Does it offend? It shouldnt.
It's interesting how the view of vintage Heavy Metal has changed over the years. What was once considered very heavy is now "classic rock." What was once raunchy and explicit is now radio friendly.
He's also clearly aware of more than most general voters are, now I'm beginning to somewhat understand why he was on so much for so long, i mean, it had to play some part in it!
@Sean MellertWell, Ozzy's vocals aren't that great, but there is so little live footage of the late great RR that I can put up with it just to see the master at work.
@@madddog6790 There's that one TV studio footage of Randy. What a travesty. Apparently Blizzard bassist Bob Daisley has a whole bunch of outtakes and demos from those sessions, and he offered them to Sharon Osbourne in return for a percentage of the revenue. Sharon only offered him a lump sum to sign it all over to them and he refused. So she told him to take a hike and had the whole album re-recorded with with other musicians to screw them out of royalties. But when Ozzy himself found out he lost his shit and demanded that everything be put back as it was.
You just had the pleasure of listening to one of the most gifted guitar players in Metal history. Randy was untouchable. Might I recommend the song Diary of a Madman from the album with the same name? You won't be disappointed. Also, at a concert in early '82, a fan threw a dead, albeit real, bat on stage (the things that people bring to concerts, hey). Ozzy picked it up and, thinking it was rubber, bit the head off. Needless to say, the rabies shots he got after the show convinced him it wasn't. That's how that whole, stupid rumor started.
Cannot go wrong with Ozzy! He was really crazy back in the day! Amazing that he's still alive!! But Ozzy was my first introduction into metal! I think I was 11!
What a wonderful and insightful reaction to Ozzy and one of my very favorite tunes! So timeless and still applicable today, unfortunately even MORE SO than the early 80s when I was a kid.
January, 1982. My first real concert. I was in tenth grade and watched this guy who used to be with Black Sabbath (they fired him in1979) and was a "devil worshiper"(according to the media) come out with a good, powerful voice that was entrancing and a young guitar player by the name of Randy Rhoads, who would put on a demonstration of guitar playing of amazing proportions. I was hooked! I bought a poster and a t-shirt at the show. I already HAD the album. March 19th, 1982 Randy Rhoads is killed along with the pilot of a small plane and Randys girlfriend, "buzzing" Ozzys tour bus. The plane Rhoads was in clipped the tour bus and crashed into the plane owners house. The 3 passengers in the aircraft- Rhoads, Andrew Aycock, tour bus driver who had an expired pilots license, and Rachel Youngblood- were killed instantly. Welcome to Rock and Roll, kid.
True story. I was set to see Ozzy with Randy Rhoads in April of 1982. Randy was killed one month ahead. Ozzy continued the tour but damn if I wasn't one depressed kid! RIP to one of the greats
All abored...go's...not to late...lifes a bitter shame...listened to precahers...Ive listened to fools...there own rules...inheirited... Good heavens! I hope the lyrics were transcribed by someone that isn't a native English speaker. I didn't even include some of the errors that were simple punctuation or capitalization.
I wrote that Blizzard and Diary were the best Ozzy albums EVER on Facebook and I got hated on by Ozzy fans who said I had no clue about Ozzy music ...to me Ozzys music was never quite the same once Randy passed away....
I was born and raised as a JW and ended up on the streets bouncing between homeless shelters and foster homes by age 14 all because I listened to Ozzy, Sabbath, WASP, Motorhead, Iron Maiden etc etc. My heart has never been more free.... You go girl!!!!
Randy was one of a kind !!! If you weren't there in the Black sabbath days you'll have no comparisons to realize how good and Special Randy was, Ozzy loved Randy like a brother. R I P Randy
Oh my god you done the best song to ever start off with with Ozzy Osbourne crazy dream thank you and his words are so deep it’s about life on this earth
Hello I really like looking at these songs again threw your eyes . I'm just an 60 year old white dude that learns from every thing and everyone. Thank you for being you and letting me look at this with new eyes.
You should have talked about Randy Rhoades. He was the only guitarist who gave Eddie Van Halen a run for his money. Randy came out right after Eddie and had his own style. Glad you liked the song.
Think of this..My first concert was Ozzy and Black Sabbath...I was 13...It was General Admission, cost I think $4.50...It was me and a friend, dropped off by his Dad...Because it was General Admission (which wasn't uncommon back in the day. 1970) people showed up for concerts hours ahead of time to party in the parking lot..We met these 3 guys there, and one of the guys had a broken leg with a cast mid-thigh...His grandfather's house was right behind the arena (Commack, NY.) He told us he was on vacation down in Florida, and was an old Italian guy who made wine in his basement...We had time, so we hopped the fence, and we let ourselves into the house through a window...(Funny when we pushed the guy through the window, and he hit his head on a table!)...We grabbed a gallon of his disgusting homemade Vermouth, and went back to the Arena...The guy with the broken leg was a wild man!...He's sitting on the ground guzzling down the wine, and people chanting, GO,GO, GO!!!...We smoked a lot of pot!....I ended up sitting on the edge of the stage, about 10 feet from OZZIE, and no one bugged me to move the whole concert!....It was an AWESOME 1st concert, and contributed to future relinquishes, I always surmised!...LOL!...A memory I'll NEVER forget!...BTW, I now 62!
Randy Rhodes was a freakin’ unbelievable guitarist so sad he had to leave so soon. The line I’m living with something that just isn’t fair I can identify with that.
Been there done that with JW. Got to here my first rock music at 16. Pink Floyd opened my eyes to a whole new world. When I first heard Ozzy I almost cried because of how good this was. Keep up the good work young um. Love your reactions!!
When the guy putting together the "lyrics video" can't spell to save his own freaking life. I started counting typos and misspellings and stopped after the tenth.
Guitarist Randy Rhoads only played on 2 or 3 albums before he died in a plane crash. But he is still to this day considered a LEGEND and highly respected. He had a custom built guitar that was shaped like a V, (V's are a fairly common shape in the metal guitar world), but his had a black and white polka dot paint job and other features that made it stand out. Its the only one in existence. Every guitar company on the planet has made copies of famous guitarists guitars... except the Randy Rhoads polka dot V. R E S P E C T ! ! There are many many tribute videos to Randy Rhoads. People try to compare Randy with Eddie Van Halen. But thats like comparing a Ferrari to a Mercedes. Two completely different animals.
you got me feeling some kind of way with the way your shirt is hanging down a bit on your right arm in combination with the way your hair is draped down...Good Gawd! You've got me going off the rails of the crazy train...crazy with desire. Lol.
It sounds badass because it's Randy Rhoads on guitar. He sadly perished a couple years after this point. Ozzy didn't write any of the lyrics or music for his first 5 solo albums, yet since it was his band he got the credit.
i love watching the next generation react to the music i reacted to as a teen. once i herd ozzy in 1974 i was hooked and have been ever since. ANY OzzY Song you pick will be a fantastic song to react to.
Ozzy is a big old Teddy Bear that is one of the heaviest rockers alive. He never drank blood lol! He DID however, bite the head off of a dove. You need to google it and see how it happened, because he was loaded when it happened. He knows it was a mistake, and he doesn’t do that as a normal thing for attention. Someone threw a dead bat on stage and he thought it was fake and he bit it’s head off. He then had to have a painful round of rabies shots and NEVER did that again either lol. All of these incidents were during drug induced hazes and he doesn’t do stunts like that anymore. Check out the show Ozzy & Jack’s World Tour. It’s a hoot and you’ll see Ozzy is a sweetheart. He is still rocking at 70, but you can definitely tell his party past has taken a toll. We love him in spite of his head biting days though. While you’re at it, check out Flying High Again by Ozzy, and also some Black Sabbath With him as lead singer.
It’s amazing that there’s no spelling test for people who feel the urge to make a lyrics video. Overlooking their ineptitude, great react to your first Ozzy song! Please react to his songs No More Tears, Mama I’m Comin’ Home, and Dreamer.
Ozzy had a crazy early life with Black Sabbath. He was constantly high on drugs, missing rehearsals and being late for concerts, and they almost went without him. His second wife Sharon got him straightened out or he probably wouldn't be alive now.
That's the late great Randy Rhodes on guitar, considered one of the greatest in rock history. Crazy Train is a great song, but it's been so over played over the last 40 years that it's not my favorite Ozzy tune any more.
Strangely enough, Ozzy talks a lot about Love. I have/had listened to Black Sabbath for years (mostly the first two albums) until I finally gave in and listened to Masters Of Reality..... Truly an epic album....
\m/ great vid! I remember the first time I heard this song back in 10th grade in 1980… Absolutely changed my life. Randy Rhoads just blew me away. Yes that riff is bad ass! Randy Rhodes and Eddie Van Halen were huge influences for me playing guitar. I played in metal bands throughout the 80s and early 90s in its heyday fun times! Great to see you liking this stuff!
Ozzy is pretty much the godfather of heavy metal . Check out a great band called Black Sabbath. Ozzy was the original singer and helped revolutionize heavy metal to this day.
Here's an odd recommendation for you. If you can find it there is a mini-documentary series where Ozzy and Sharon's son Jack decides he needs to turn his life around, lose weight, stop the drink and drugs, or he will die. So he sets himself the goal of doing all of that and also training to climb El Capitan. " Jack Osbourne: Adrenaline Junkie"
Oh my gosh India. You have to listen to some of his music from 73 through 76 I believe you're like it he's a badass vocalist with a badass band for the time with no electronics
So the bat story... during a concert, someone threw a bat onstage. Thinking it was a fake rubber bat, Ozzy decided to bite its head off as part of his metal performance. It turned out to be a real, but dead, bat, that someone threw onstage as a joke. And so a metal story was born.
According to Ozzy, the story goes - A fan threw a bat on stage at a concert. Ozzy thought it was a rubber one, so he picked it up and bit the head off, only to find out it was real. Now, at the time, he was so high on alcohol and cocaine, it's plausible he didn't realize it was fake when he picked it up.
If you're going to appreciate the song, that's Ozzy and Randy, a fantastic duo in time tragically cut short. If you want to analyze the lyrical meaning, well that's the cold war, something that people my age lived through that meant a number of different things to different people, but in it's worst form ultimately meant worldwide thermo-nuclear war on a spectacular scale.
He bit the head off a bat. Someone threw it on stage at one of his concerts. He said he thought it was a rubber bat. He ended up getting Rabies shots. Btw he also bit the head off a pigeon at a record deal signing that he did on purpose he was high.
It’s not about him losing his mind, it’s about the insanity of people not getting along, media manipulation, and the issues between the former Soviet Union and U.S.
You should check out "You're No Different", "Fool Like You", & Thank God For The Bomb". Bob Daisely wrote most of the lyrics. Randy Roads and other guitarists, as well as other band members probably contributed to them, too. I think Randy Roads did, though. Ozzy only wrote a couple songs that I know of ("Mama I'm Coming Home" - To his wife & " Goodbye To Romance" - about him not being in Black Sabbath anymore. Singers usually get credits. He's a great singer and performer, though. His contribution to the songs was mostly humming a tune for them to put lyrics too, according to what I've read.
Sounds badass because Randy Rhoads is on guitar. Ozzy was playing a concert on Halloween when a fan threw a bat on stage. He picked it up thinking it was a rubber Halloween Toy bat and bit it's head off not realizing it was a real, but dead bat. He had to get Rabie shots which is not fun
We all miss Randy Rhoads (lead guitarist here). He was so young, I think 25? It really affected OZZY as well. It is funny but when Ozzy and also Black Sabbath were putting out these songs, they were such headbangers that no one was really listening to the lyrics, but they truly had a lot to say. War Pigs is a full story about the corporation of war and they had a lot of these songs mixed in with Paranoid and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Hope you will look for others.
Hiya India I'm still on my knees waiting for u too love me lol, seriously though cool reaction also I love Ozzie he's Megga cool so please keep them coming👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👌✋💪✝✌👋👋👋👋
He didn’t just drink bat’s blood. He bit the head off of it. Also, I wanna say there was a rabbit? Idk, he bit the head off something else cuz he thought it was plastic, but the bat’s the main thing he’s known for.
That sounds like the re-mixed version. Not the true original. Blizzard Of Ozz was remixed due to some legal matter. The bass lines were re-recorded. This sounds different from the 1995 Sony Music re-mastered version.
Ozzy Osbourne played a character on stage. It was an extension of his Black Sabbath days when they thought if movies can have a horror genre, why can't music? I can't remember off the top of my head about any blood drinking, but if he did it was a stage blood that was something else. The bat incident involved a fan throwing a bat onto stage, and Ozzy saw it, and thought it was a rubber toy bat, so decided to bite off the head to give a shock to the fans. He has written about how he immediately noticed something was wrong, with a warm gross tasting liquid running down his face, and the head "twitching in his mouth". He referred to it as "very wrong". Aparently the bat also bit him, resulting in him needing a treatment for rabies.
I cry when I start thinking of Randy, I see this reaction video and start thinking, what if...what if he lived to rock one more riff. The world was his oyster, guys. Just about to open and reveal a pearl.
A substantial volume of Ozzy's work is anti-war and promotes peace and love. (unbelievable as that may sound)
Sadly, he was one of the first to realize the Corporate Media and its role in shaping the Corporate Mentality, we now live in, and we didn't get it then, or sadly still, most still don't get that it is a Rich vs Poor Dichotomy not a Right vs Left. Low and Middle Class Dems/Rep. care about the same things, but most have been brainwashed to follow the Corporate Mind Molding. Kudos to you Ozzy, and damn sorry we didn't get it then.

Kenny Johnson randy was a legend in every sense of the word.
Apparently Ozzy still can't go to his grave. He loved Randy so much.
I saw the Diary tour 3 months before Randy died.
An AMAZING SHOW.
Axe opened.
Axe is SUCH an under rated band.
He had a world class guitarist, Randy Rhoads, who died WAY too young. It sounds bad ass because it is. ❤️🎶

He tracked this solo twice. What you are hearing is 2 different takes. He was so good that it sounds like one.
Randy Rhodes was one of the greatest guitar player's ever died to early r.i.p
Wrong... HE WAS THE GREATEST .Seen him live twice and have seen all the great ones yes even Stevie Ray Vaughn ,M. Friedman , Dime , Van halen , Yngwie , A.Vandenberg etc. etc. etc....

My first real concert. I was in tenth grade and watched this guy who used to be with Black Sabbath (they fired him in1979) and was a "devil worshiper"(according to the media) come out with a good, powerful voice that was entrancing and a young guitar player by the name of Randy Rhoads, who would put on a demonstration of guitar playing of amazing proportions. I was hooked! I bought a poster and a t-shirt at the show. I already HAD the album.
March 19th, 1982
Randy Rhoads is killed along with the pilot of a small plane and Randys girlfriend, "buzzing" Ozzys tour bus. The plane Rhoads was in clipped the tour bus and crashed into the plane owners house. The 3 passengers in the aircraft- Rhoads, Andrew Aycock, tour bus driver who had an expired pilots license, and Rachel Youngblood- were killed instantly.
Welcome to Rock and Roll, kid.
True story. I was set to see Ozzy with Randy Rhoads in April of 1982. Randy was killed one month ahead. Ozzy continued the tour but damn if I wasn't one depressed kid! RIP to one of the greats
I got lucky. I saw them in January of 1982.
Ozzy's music has always been on the cutting edge of what's happening. React to War Pigs, from
Ozzy's days with Black Sabbth
you know how to get my attention sugar.The Oz Man!!
The person who did the lyrics obviously never went to skool. ;)
All abored...go's...not to late...lifes a bitter shame...listened to precahers...Ive listened to fools...there own rules...inheirited...
Good heavens! I hope the lyrics were transcribed by someone that isn't a native English speaker. I didn't even include some of the errors that were simple punctuation or capitalization.
Lol "bad ass solo" lol Someone's ass played a solo!
yez they ned to lern propr inglesh
Whatever that suppose to mean
HeHe sPellng Go brRRr
Blizzard Of Ozz and Diary Of A Madman are two of the best albums in the history of the world period.
I wrote that Blizzard and Diary were the best Ozzy albums EVER on Facebook and I got hated on by Ozzy fans who said I had no clue about Ozzy music ...to me Ozzys music was never quite the same once Randy passed away....
I was born and raised as a JW and ended up on the streets bouncing between homeless shelters and foster homes by age 14 all because I listened to Ozzy, Sabbath, WASP, Motorhead, Iron Maiden etc etc. My heart has never been more free.... You go girl!!!!
Great reaction, but that lyric video was making me go on my own 'crazy train' with all those errors.
I agree. Sure, some people will cry about "Grammar Nazis," but we're not the ones committing atrocities against a language. ;)
🤣🤣😂
Randy was one of a kind !!! If you weren't there in the Black sabbath days you'll have no comparisons to realize how good and Special Randy was, Ozzy loved Randy like a brother. R I P Randy
Why does it sound so badass? Three words...
RANDALL WILLIAM RHOADS
IiU P
You get that look in your eyes when a transition happens and you look like Wendy Williams right before she passed out..the eyes
Lol you're right
All praise Randy Rhodes, taken far too early.
Oh my god you done the best song to ever start off with with Ozzy Osbourne crazy dream thank you and his words are so deep it’s about life on this earth
A perfect song for today. Will we learn? Think for yourself, the media lies. Ozzie, all the best man!
It's all about Randy and that atomic bomb drop of an expeditionary guitar playing masterpiece. RIP Randy...the best ever.
Hello I really like looking at these songs again threw your eyes . I'm just an 60 year old white dude that learns from every thing and everyone. Thank you for being you and letting me look at this with new eyes.
Never heard this song until now? What rock have you been living under? They play that song everywhere.
You should have talked about Randy Rhoades. He was the only guitarist who gave Eddie Van Halen a run for his money. Randy came out right after Eddie and had his own style. Glad you liked the song.
Mr. Crowley with Randy Rhoads, my favorite! Hello from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Wait have you heard black Sabbath? That is also OzZy. Listen to them! (Old school metal)
Think of this..My first concert was Ozzy and Black Sabbath...I was 13...It was General Admission, cost I think $4.50...It was me and a friend, dropped off by his Dad...Because it was General Admission (which wasn't uncommon back in the day. 1970) people showed up for concerts hours ahead of time to party in the parking lot..We met these 3 guys there, and one of the guys had a broken leg with a cast mid-thigh...His grandfather's house was right behind the arena (Commack, NY.) He told us he was on vacation down in Florida, and was an old Italian guy who made wine in his basement...We had time, so we hopped the fence, and we let ourselves into the house through a window...(Funny when we pushed the guy through the window, and he hit his head on a table!)...We grabbed a gallon of his disgusting homemade Vermouth, and went back to the Arena...The guy with the broken leg was a wild man!...He's sitting on the ground guzzling down the wine, and people chanting, GO,GO, GO!!!...We smoked a lot of pot!....I ended up sitting on the edge of the stage, about 10 feet from OZZIE, and no one bugged me to move the whole concert!....It was an AWESOME 1st concert, and contributed to future relinquishes, I always surmised!...LOL!...A memory I'll NEVER forget!...BTW, I now 62!
So glad you listened to this and really HEARD Ozzy
Awww Ozzy, good man, great writer/performer. 👍 another good choice India 👑
Mr. Crowley is another good song from ozzy.
I did what Mr Crowley dreamed of
Randy Rhodes was a freakin’ unbelievable guitarist so sad he had to leave so soon. The line I’m living with something that just isn’t fair I can identify with that.
Been there done that with JW. Got to here my first rock music at 16. Pink Floyd opened my eyes to a whole new world. When I first heard Ozzy I almost cried because of how good this was. Keep up the good work young um. Love your reactions!!
When the guy putting together the "lyrics video" can't spell to save his own freaking life. I started counting typos and misspellings and stopped after the tenth.
Randy single handedly resurrected Ozzy's career !
Do I Just Want You off the Perry Mason cd. Ozzy is amazing. One of my favorite singers
It sounds badass because it IS badass! You've found one of the grandfather's of Rock.
I still bop my head when I hear this 40 years later
Guitarist Randy Rhoads only played on 2 or 3 albums before he died in a plane crash. But he is still to this day considered a LEGEND and highly respected. He had a custom built guitar that was shaped like a V, (V's are a fairly common shape in the metal guitar world), but his had a black and white polka dot paint job and other features that made it stand out. Its the only one in existence. Every guitar company on the planet has made copies of famous guitarists guitars... except the Randy Rhoads polka dot V. R E S P E C T ! ! There are many many tribute videos to Randy Rhoads. People try to compare Randy with Eddie Van Halen. But thats like comparing a Ferrari to a Mercedes. Two completely different animals.
you got me feeling some kind of way with the way your shirt is hanging down a bit on your right arm in combination with the way your hair is draped down...Good Gawd! You've got me going off the rails of the crazy train...crazy with desire. Lol.
If you like this song, You will absolutely LOVE Ozzy Osbourne DREAMER. It is not a heavy metal as this song is, but it has a powerful message.
Ozzy is the reason for life on this planet!
It sounds badass because it's Randy Rhoads on guitar. He sadly perished a couple years after this point. Ozzy didn't write any of the lyrics or music for his first 5 solo albums, yet since it was his band he got the credit.
I love how smart you are.
i love watching the next generation react to the music i reacted to as a teen. once i herd ozzy in 1974 i was hooked and have been ever since. ANY OzzY Song you pick will be a fantastic song to react to.
Ozzy is a big old Teddy Bear that is one of the heaviest rockers alive. He never drank blood lol! He DID however, bite the head off of a dove. You need to google it and see how it happened, because he was loaded when it happened. He knows it was a mistake, and he doesn’t do that as a normal thing for attention. Someone threw a dead bat on stage and he thought it was fake and he bit it’s head off. He then had to have a painful round of rabies shots and NEVER did that again either lol. All of these incidents were during drug induced hazes and he doesn’t do stunts like that anymore. Check out the show Ozzy & Jack’s World Tour. It’s a hoot and you’ll see Ozzy is a sweetheart. He is still rocking at 70, but you can definitely tell his party past has taken a toll. We love him in spite of his head biting days though. While you’re at it, check out Flying High Again by Ozzy, and also some Black Sabbath With him as lead singer.
It’s amazing that there’s no spelling test for people who feel the urge to make a lyrics video. Overlooking their ineptitude, great react to your first Ozzy song! Please react to his songs No More Tears, Mama I’m Comin’ Home, and Dreamer.
Her facial expressions making crazy train funnier
This was rock and roll back in the day instead of the bs we got now
Ozzy had a crazy early life with Black Sabbath. He was constantly high on drugs, missing rehearsals and being late for concerts, and they almost went without him. His second wife Sharon got him straightened out or he probably wouldn't be alive now.
That's the late great Randy Rhodes on guitar, considered one of the greatest in rock history.
Crazy Train is a great song, but it's been so over played over the last 40 years that it's not my favorite Ozzy tune any more.
A lot of Ozzy(Black Sabbath) songs were about war.
@Andrew Layton But Ozzy was very specific about wars that he was singing about, especially Vietnam.
Loved the song and loved the reaction!
Strangely enough, Ozzy talks a lot about Love.
I have/had listened to Black Sabbath for years (mostly the first two albums) until I finally gave in and listened to Masters Of Reality.....
Truly an epic album....
\m/ great vid! I remember the first time I heard this song back in 10th grade in 1980… Absolutely changed my life. Randy Rhoads just blew me away. Yes that riff is bad ass! Randy Rhodes and Eddie Van Halen were huge influences for me playing guitar. I played in metal bands throughout the 80s and early 90s in its heyday fun times! Great to see you liking this stuff!
Featuring the incredible powerhouse drumming of Lee Kerslake (RIP)
Ozzy is pretty much the godfather of heavy metal . Check out a great band called Black Sabbath. Ozzy was the original singer and helped revolutionize heavy metal to this day.
i loved his style of player.. the classical music sound with metal... pure genius
Love your channel India! keep up the great cuts!
The theme song to my life. Rock on Ozman
Here's an odd recommendation for you. If you can find it there is a mini-documentary series where Ozzy and Sharon's son Jack decides he needs to turn his life around, lose weight, stop the drink and drugs, or he will die. So he sets himself the goal of doing all of that and also training to climb El Capitan. " Jack Osbourne: Adrenaline Junkie"
This song is pure genius from Ozzy. Try out roxette, "must have been love" or "spending my time".
Quiet Riot and Ozzy was never the same after Randy died......Way too soon....R.I.P.
Oh my gosh India. You have to listen to some of his music from 73 through 76 I believe you're like it he's a badass vocalist with a badass band for the time with no electronics
The great Randy Rhoads on Guitar
Sounds badass because Randy Rhoads and the other players
So the bat story... during a concert, someone threw a bat onstage. Thinking it was a fake rubber bat, Ozzy decided to bite its head off as part of his metal performance. It turned out to be a real, but dead, bat, that someone threw onstage as a joke. And so a metal story was born.
According to Ozzy, the story goes - A fan threw a bat on stage at a concert. Ozzy thought it was a rubber one, so he picked it up and bit the head off, only to find out it was real. Now, at the time, he was so high on alcohol and cocaine, it's plausible he didn't realize it was fake when he picked it up.
you're reactions are by far the best i've seen and i listened to many.
Finally someone reacting to this song
Rawk!On Randy Rhoads the greatest guitar player ever!! R!p Randy
Ozzy is from Birmingham England. Sadly messed up by drugs. My favorite by him is: Mama I'm Coming Home.
If you're going to appreciate the song, that's Ozzy and Randy, a fantastic duo in time tragically cut short. If you want to analyze the lyrical meaning, well that's the cold war, something that people my age lived through that meant a number of different things to different people, but in it's worst form ultimately meant worldwide thermo-nuclear war on a spectacular scale.
One of faves! Been a sub for a while;)
You gotta hear Ozzy Diary of a madman. The lyrics are deep and Randy Rhoads guitar playing skill will blow your mind
Metal is LIFE.
He bit the head off a bat. Someone threw it on stage at one of his concerts. He said he thought it was a rubber bat. He ended up getting Rabies shots. Btw he also bit the head off a pigeon at a record deal signing that he did on purpose he was high.
It’s not about him losing his mind, it’s about the insanity of people not getting along, media manipulation, and the issues between the former Soviet Union and U.S.
You should check out "You're No Different", "Fool Like You", & Thank God For The Bomb".
Bob Daisely wrote most of the lyrics. Randy Roads and other guitarists, as well as other band members probably contributed to them, too. I think Randy Roads did, though. Ozzy only wrote a couple songs that I know of ("Mama I'm Coming Home" - To his wife & " Goodbye To Romance" - about him not being in Black Sabbath anymore. Singers usually get credits. He's a great singer and performer, though. His contribution to the songs was mostly humming a tune for them to put lyrics too, according to what I've read.
Sounds badass because Randy Rhoads is on guitar. Ozzy was playing a concert on Halloween when a fan threw a bat on stage. He picked it up thinking it was a rubber Halloween Toy bat and bit it's head off not realizing it was a real, but dead bat. He had to get Rabie shots which is not fun
We all miss Randy Rhoads (lead guitarist here). He was so young, I think 25? It really affected OZZY as well. It is funny but when Ozzy and also Black Sabbath were putting out these songs, they were such headbangers that no one was really listening to the lyrics, but they truly had a lot to say. War Pigs is a full story about the corporation of war and they had a lot of these songs mixed in with Paranoid and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Hope you will look for others.
ozzy is one bad ass i seen him so many times back in the 80s
"Why does this sound bad ass??" Cuz it is!!!
Hiya India I'm still on my knees waiting for u too love me lol, seriously though cool reaction also I love Ozzie he's Megga cool so please keep them coming👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👌✋💪✝✌👋👋👋👋
He didn’t just drink bat’s blood. He bit the head off of it. Also, I wanna say there was a rabbit? Idk, he bit the head off something else cuz he thought it was plastic, but the bat’s the main thing he’s known for.
One of his secrets to success. Even after Randy...Ozzie paid some of the best guitarist big bucks to play with him. Very smart in that regards.
He also paid some of the best lyricists in the business as well.
That sounds like the re-mixed version. Not the true original. Blizzard Of Ozz was remixed due to some legal matter. The bass lines were re-recorded. This sounds different from the 1995 Sony Music re-mastered version.
Sadly this remix was to prevent Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake from getting royalties.
You should listen to war pigs from Black Sabbath which is ozzy Osbourne
she did about 4 months ago
Ok just subscribed
You need to hear "Goodbye To Romance". My mom hated Ozzy till she heard it.
Ozzy Osbourne played a character on stage. It was an extension of his Black Sabbath days when they thought if movies can have a horror genre, why can't music?
I can't remember off the top of my head about any blood drinking, but if he did it was a stage blood that was something else.
The bat incident involved a fan throwing a bat onto stage, and Ozzy saw it, and thought it was a rubber toy bat, so decided to bite off the head to give a shock to the fans. He has written about how he immediately noticed something was wrong, with a warm gross tasting liquid running down his face, and the head "twitching in his mouth". He referred to it as "very wrong". Aparently the bat also bit him, resulting in him needing a treatment for rabies.
"Crazy, But that's how it goooes" 💟🇬🇧🕊️🦇🐜🍺🥃
I cry when I start thinking of Randy, I see this reaction video and start thinking, what if...what if he lived to rock one more riff. The world was his oyster, guys. Just about to open and reveal a pearl.
All aboard!!! Love it
