Ozzy Osbourne is a rock icon. He has been around for a long time and is one of the fathers of rock music. His career began with Black Sabbath in the 1970s. They put out nine studio albums with the latest coming out in 2013. While that was successful, he also had a solo career that started in the 1980s.

He came out with such albums like Blizzard of Ozz in 1980, Diary of a Madman in 1981, Scream in 2010, and his most recent one of Ordinary Man in February of 2020. To be more persistent, Ordinary Man comes out on February 21st.

Three of the songs have been released already. One of them is titled Ordinary Man. He performs the song with legendary singer, Elton John. As Sharon Osbourne mentioned in an episode of the Talk, the song is about Ozzy Osbourne’s life. After hearing the song, I understand why that’s the case. He is someone who is far from an Ordinary Man.

This is a guy who began his career in 1967 and is still active in 2020. There’s a line where he says, ” I don’t know how I am still alive.” When you look back at Ozzy’s life, this is very true. There were many moments and he has done enough drugs that should have probably killed him.

However, this has the feeling of an anthem type of song. It’s not heavy like Crazy Train, but it’s at the right sound. In addition, it feels like an Elton John song as well. This is a song that once the album comes out will be a hit on many rock stations across the world. In addition, it has become one of my favorite songs to listen to. You get a sort of look into the life Ozzy Osbourne has lived.

The album Ordinary Man comes out on February 21, 2020. I highly recommend you to get the album.
