    So this 9yo Japanese kid wails some Crazy Train on Ellen's TV show after proclaiming Ozzy and Randy Rhodes as his rock heroes, and then Ozzy himself comes out to meet him. The vocals are suspect, but hey, the kid is only 9 and doesn't speak English.

    Personally, I couldn't imagine anything cooler as a kid. Hell I'm 33 and can't imagine anything cooler.

    Anyway. Onto it:

    i saw this and it was awesome. a truly touching and genuine moment. did he ask if he could touch ozzy? lol.

    seems like kids in japan are taught respect at a younger age than they are here. i've seen countless similar surprise type things on various talk shows, whether they give the kid free crap or something, and i'm always waiting for the kids to say thank you or something, and they almost never do. this kid seems to get it.

    That was pretty cool, but I wish Ozzy had come in the middle of the song and started singing with him. I would have loved to see his face if Ozzy started singing from offstage, then came out to jam with him.

    The kid has good taste in guitar idols. Love the Flying V.

    Ellen's show is by far the best talk show on TV.

    There is a lot of videos of this kid on youtube. It turns out he's not a one trick pony. Very impressive.

    Yeah you can just see the awe and surprise plastered all over the kids face. Pretty awesome for Ellen to do this, and even more so for one of the biggest, most influential voices in the history of rock & roll to do this for a 9yo kid.

    Mad props to Ozzy.

    I can't see the video but you mean to tell me they didn't perform together? That kind of sucks but still cool for them to meet. I assume the kid was playing a real guitar and not playing guitar hero.

    Not only that but I think Ozzy was genuinely in awe of this kid and his dedication to be that good at age freaking 9. I don't know Ozzy but he looked touched himself.

    Both Ozzy and the kid seemed so excited to meet each other. That kid must be so happy. I think anyone would be

    I wouldn't be surprised if Ozzy got a little emotional seeing the kid playing Randy's custom Flying V. Hell, it may be the first time he's seen Crazy Train played on that guitar since Randy played it.

    I remember reading somewhere that Ozzy is still having trouble dealing with Randy's death even after all these years.
