    I love that the Austin newscast just said that Ozzy's "cause of death is unknown"

    I've got a pretty good idea what it was.

    RIP Legend. As hard as he went it's crazy he had as long and an amazing run like he did.

    Also not trying to make this a D&D conversation, but it surprised me to learn.

    Ozzy Osbourne's Religious Beliefs
    While Ozzy’s public image often leaned into dark and gothic themes, his private beliefs told a different story. Despite his “Prince of Darkness” moniker, Ozzy consistently rejected accusations of Satanism or devil worship. He identified as a Christian and maintained a belief in God throughout his life.

    “I believe in God, absolutely,” he once said. “I'm not a Satanist, never have been.”

    Ozzy’s Christian beliefs often surprised fans. Songs like “After Forever,” written during his Black Sabbath days, include lyrics that question atheism and affirm belief in God. Though he admitted he didn’t attend church regularly or read the Bible extensively, he acknowledged that Christianity influenced his worldview and some of his music.

    His faith was not loud or doctrinal but personal and sincere. He reportedly received a Bible from a well-known evangelist and kept it with him. He was also known to end his concerts with a heartfelt blessing, asking God to bless his audience.

    “I’m not preaching, but I think there’s a higher power watching over us,” he shared in an interview. “I should be dead a hundred times over. There’s something more to life than we understand.”

    His wife, Sharon, described herself as an omnist—someone who sees truth in all religions—and their children have expressed various beliefs. But Ozzy remained quietly committed to his Christian faith, even as his on-stage persona projected something else entirely.

    Its funny how UN-heavy those Black Sabath albums sound. I get they were heavy for the time, but out-of-context it wouldn't even be heavy metal if it came out today. It's basically slow adult contemporary with a little extra fuzz.

    For whatever reason, this is my favorite Black Sabbath song:

    Was there even such a thing as "Hard Rock" before Sabbath and Zeppelin?
