Over the course of a six-minute skit, Osbourne forgets the lyrics to Crazy Train, calls Barry Manilow “the antichrist” and unintentionally strangles a guy

A tribute to the decade-spanning discography of the Black Sabbath frontman and first-name-only pop-cultural icon, who died this week at 76 after surviving enough metal madness to fill multiple lifetimes.

Osbourne was an avid Beatles fan and credited the Fab Four with inspiring his musical career. The official X page of the late Beatles great John Lennon sent a bit of love Osbourne's way by simply posting "OZZY," accompanied by a black heart.

Ozzy's unique high pitched vocals stand out over the thick distorted guitar of Tony Iommi, meaty bass tone of Geezer Butler and thunderous drums of Bill Ward. Black Sabbath was a truly collaborative effort with all members involved in the songwriting process.

Along with “Blizzard of Ozz,” the album that bore this title track is Osbourne’s best seller. The single, meanwhile, is ushered in with a gripping bass line and an undercurrent of keyboards until Osbourne makes his grand vocal entrance, all sneers and snarls.

Ozzy Osbourne was devastatingly funny and surprisingly wise. We pulled out some of his greatest quotes from throughout the years.

Just weeks after Black Sabbath's final ever show The post Prince of Darkness Departs: Ozzy Osbourne Dies Aged 76 appeared first on Music Feeds.

Ozzy Osbourne was an unruly chaos agent and a beloved family man alike.
