Ozzy Osbourne - Degradation Rules ft. Tony Iommi

This is a solid effort for where they’re at in there careers but it feels pretty generic and safe. I guess there’s just nothing new or interesting being explored with these songs, they sortof don’t go anywhere.

 

Compare to some of Ozzy’s 80s hits like Crazy Train or Bark at the Moon where the guitar is just from another planet and you’re constantly getting barraged with hooks and tasty little nuggets. This feels extremely boring and stagnant in comparison 

 

If I were to focus on a positive aspect I’d say Ozzy’s voice hasn’t aged too badly

Please tell me he is not covering The Beach Boys with God Only Knows and that its an Ozz original. Bowie covered a BB song on that album with Loving The Alien on it. I think it was God Only Knows too.

Ozzy has been on US television quite a bit in the past 10 years or so, reality shows with wife Sharon, and another with his son.  I can't understand a word he says when he's talking, but can understand him perfectly well when he is singing.  It's the opposite with a lot of rock singers.

Ozz can't put two one syllable words together that are intelligible when talking, yet when on stage he can remember and sing (If that is what Ozz does) N.I.B.

Look into my eyes, you will see who I am
My name is lucifer, please take my hand

We still do that one!  It goes over, believe it or not.
