As Ozzy Osbourne basks in the glow of being selected for a second induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, he’s throwing his support behind another long-overlooked act. “Motorhead have to be [inducted],” the Prince of Darkness insisted to Rolling Stone. “They should definitely be in.” Osbourne then proceeded to heap praise on Motorhead’s departed frontman. “In my opinion, Lemmy Kilmister was the ultimate metal guy. He lived blues, meth, and malt brews. And he was a dear friend of mine. I really miss not having Lemmy around anymore,” Osbourne explained. “What I liked about Lemmy is he didn’...

Ozzy Osbourne has shared his excitement after being elected to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for a second time. In a conversation with Billboard, the Prince of Darkness admitted earning a second induction “feels big. I’m more than honored.” “With every new music venture there’s always a certain amount of surprise that comes when you see the fans embrace it, because no one wants to make a record and have it flop,” Ozzy continued, reflecting upon his solo career. “I feel like I was invited to a party in 1980, and it hasn’t stopped. Not bad for a guy who was fired from his last band.” READ MORE: T...

The idea of longtime headliner Ozzy Osbourne playing an afternoon set at a festival might have seemed odd to many fans. But it was a concept perfectly timed for him to open with “Bark at the Moon” during a solar eclipse. The performance happened in August 2017 at the Moonstock Festival in Carterville, Ill., and, as you can see in the video above, the sky was relatively bright when Osbourne and his band took the stage to music from Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana. But less than two minutes into “Bark at the Moon,” everything went dark. The fan who shot the video panned up to capture the very moment ...

Ozzy Osbourne admits his pending nomination for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame weighs heavily on his mind. Though the legendary singer was previously inducted as a member of Black Sabbath, he’s up for the honor again as a solo artist. It’s an achievement Osbourne is hoping for, even if he doesn’t think it’ll happen. “It’s been driving me mad,” the Prince of Darkness confessed during an interview with Rolling Stone. “It’s an honor that I’m nominated, but I’m not expecting to get in. There’s Mariah Carey, there’s Cher, Lenny Kravitz. I’m up against some serious people. If I get in, I get in. If I ...
