Ozzy Autobiography
‘I AM OZZY’ getting 1st of October release in UK.
‘They’ve said some crazy
things about me over the years. I mean, okay: “He bit the head off a bat.” Yes.
“He bit the head off a dove.” Yes. But then you hear things like, “Ozzy went to
the show last night, but he wouldn’t perform until he’d killed fifteen
puppies…” Now me, kill fifteen puppies? I love puppies. I’ve got eighteen
of the fucking things at home. I’ve killed a few cows in my time, mind you. And
the chickens. I shot the chickens in my house that night.
It haunts me, all this crazy stuff. Every
day of my life has been an event. I took lethal combinations of booze and drugs
for thirty fucking years. I survived a direct hit by a plane, suicidal
overdoses, STDs. I've been accused of attempted murder. Then I almost died
while riding over a bump on a quad bike at fucking two miles per hour.
People ask me how come I’m still alive,
and I don’t know what to say. When I was growing up, if you’d have put me up
against a wall with the other kids from my street and asked me which one of us
was gonna make it to the age of 60, which one of us would end up with five kids
and four grandkids and houses in Buckinghamshire and Beverly Hills, I wouldn’t
have put money on me, no fucking way. But here I am: ready to tell my story, in
my own words, for the first time.
A lot of it ain’t gonna be pretty. I’ve
done some bad things in my time. I’ve always been drawn to the dark side, me.
But I ain’t the devil. I’m just John Osbourne: a working class kid
from Aston, who quit his job in the factory and went looking for a good time.’.
Frank,
fearless, and very funny, I AM OZZY is his highly anticipated autobiography, in which
Ozzy comes clean: in all senses.
Ozzy Osbourne was born in Aston, Birmingham in 1948. He has sold over a hundred million records
both with Sabbath and as an award-winning solo artist. He has five children and
lives with his wife Sharon in California and Buckinghamshire.
I AM OZZY
will be released Oct 1st, 2009 in the UK with a US release coming soon.
