I loved Ozzy and Sabbath as a kid, saw him play at the NEC on the "No rest for the wicked" tour, think I may have the t-shirt somewhere too, although I doubt it will fit me now.
The way Ozzy speaks may seem odd, and thats because he comes from the Midlands. We all sound like that I'm afraid, of course the drugs have also had an effect on his speech which hasn't helped.
Hehehe..but boy is that true.
I like old Oz...and I think part of his speech problem is that when he's relaxed around his family he tends to not articulate his words as well...and of course he's piss drunk alot. Sharon said in one interview that everything you see his hair in a pony tail that's an indication that he's probably drunk.
