I'm a fan (and you should be too) because...I grew up listening to OZZY. He is my dad's favorite artist, as well. I can remember when I was young listening to Crazy Train, and playing catch in the front yard with my father. Ozzy was played in my house on a daily basis. I have been a fan as long as I can remember. Ozzy has been in this business for decades,he STILL ROCKS HARD!!!!!! He wasn't a flash -in-the-pan like many other artists that have come and gone. I also love the lyrics to his music. He has been influential in many other artist's music. If Ozzy wasn't in this business, we would be listening to mindless, commerical pop music. I know that's not my thing. He's never been afraid to be different. He's done some pretty crazy things in his life. Haven't we all? There will never be another Ozzy!!!!!! THAT"S WHY I AM A FAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
