Pushing Up The Daisies

[Kandi1977]

By an odd coincidence I was listening to Ozzy in the car just an hour and a half ago. Was singing along to Mama I'm coming home and Mr Crowley while driving, not knowing he was already dead.

Didn't know he died until now! Been driving for 7 hours straight, and listening to various classics along the way. Then 'Dreamer' came, and having heard a lot of songs where the artist is already dead, I was thinking it's amazing that he's still here, and that he was able to make such a beautiful song.
R.i.p Ozzy!

Shaaarrron!!!

No. Not having this at all. Out of order.

 

[thfcsteff]

Devastated, but I'm not surprised.

Talks of they going to Switzerland (?) have been about for years for assisted suicide.

He just wanted to perform one last time....

Those 'talks' were nonsense. Not true.

Sad day but he must have been suffering bless him. He was broken in a few ways.

Rip dark prince.

More "last ever" tours then anyone can remember.
One actual last ever gig - gets loads of other singers to do the singing for him and just does the last bit, then two later says "yeah, time for me to go".
That's proper Rock N Roll.

He was a hilarious bloke too.

 

[Lemonade Money]

Oh no, so sad.

Sabbath changed music.

I’m glad he got his send off last week.

In what way?

In what way?

you could argue they invented heavy metal, they were not the first band to make heavy rock songs, but they were the first to commit to it and make heavy metal albums, with the dark themes and imagery that were the mainstay of the genre since

their influence on NWBHM and thrash/speed metal is ingrained, they are key in the evolutionary tree
