The Fire in Your Eyes: Ozzy Osbourne (1948-2025) | Tributes | Roger Ebert
Briefly

Ozzy Osbourne's song "Road to Nowhere" reflects the haunting nature of his past and contributes to his image as a rock legend. His career has appealed to three generations: from his Black Sabbath days to his solo career and reality show, The Osbournes. Despite being overlooked by the establishment, such as the delay in his Rolling Stone cover and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, he maintained a devoted fanbase. His distinctive eccentricity and humor, showcased in various interviews and appearances, further solidified his reputation in rock music history.
Ozzy's status as a top-tier rock legend was irrefutable, endearing him to Gen Xers as much as his Black Sabbath albums did for boomers and The Osbournes for millennials.
Ozzy gave the most memorable interview in 'The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years' by showing himself making breakfast in his kitchen.
