Real men cried when this song was released

If this is really his goodbye song, then he’s definitely going out with a bang. Elton John sings and plays piano on this song, Slash is on guitar, Duff McKagan is on bass, and Chad Smith is on drums.

Ozzy is truly immortal. There is no words to describe what he’s lived through, what he’s done. An icon, archetype, really.

If there’s even the smallest chance that Ozzy ever sees these reviews, thank you, from the bottom of my heart. You’ve been a part of my life literally for the majority of my life. Your music has given me pleasure and pain. Made sense of the odd and kept me going through the heartache and pleasure that life gives and takes away.

The day Ozzy leave us, this song will hurt a lot.

Ozzy, I know you don’t actually read this, but I’m more proclaiming to the universe. This week I’ve found out that my dad has lymphatic cancer and his doctors said he only has 1-3 years max to live. I’m 22 but by the time I’m 25 it’s almost certain I won’t have a father anymore. Growing up you were his favorite singer and in turn you were mine too. Whenever I hear your songs, I’ll always think of my dad, and this song will always mean a lot to me. I know he’s not gone yet, but he’ll always be there in my heart. He’s had a good life but it’s ending too short. He won’t die an ordinary man. I would have loved to see you in concert here in Milwaukee the last two years at Summerfest but it wasn’t in the universe’s plans since both of your concerts here were canceled. I was going to go with my dad to see you since you’re his favorite. Dear friend, stay safe and stay healthy Ozzy.

2:19 The scenes with Randy, and Ozzy holding his head in his hand in reaction. Ozzy is always trying to show us how much he loved Randy and how deeply that loss hurt him.

I still choke up watching Ozzy covering his face from grief when it shows the picture of him and Randy. This video is powerful & the lyrics are so emotional. I wonder what that conversation was like after he watched this for the first time.

This is so sad. It’s like he knows he’s dying but he doesn’t want to. When he goes a part of all of us will be gone.

Something about seeing Ozzy look back at his whole life with us while he’s still alive, is both beautiful and heartbreaking

Everytime that I heard this song, it makes me almost cry. It's seams like a goodbye and it's sad because my children will not understand how much important you were for us. You always be one of the best of all times. Thank you Ozzy! U made us as crazy as you are listening your songs!

Hes done a lot of Ballads but in my opinion this is in his top 5. Ozzy. You will never have to worry about dying an Ordinary man. You have touched way too many heats and you can't argue or debate it. All your contributions to your fans has been a blessing to us. You are a most talented and versatile performer and I'm overjoyed to have heard you many many times. Take care** \m/

People can hate Sharon as much as they can, but thanks to her, we still have Ozzy.

"I don't wanna die an ordinary man" no danger of that Ozzy....

Ozzy dying an ordinary man is an impossibility. He’s touched too many lives.

I was unprepared for fame Then everybody knew my name No more lonely nights, it's all for you I have travelled many miles I've seen tears and I've seen smiles Just remember that it's all for you Don't forget me as the colours fade When the lights go down, it's just an empty stage Okay Yes, I've been a bad guy Been higher than the blue sky And the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man I've made grown men cry Don't know why I'm still alive Yes, the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man Many times I've lost control They tried to kill my rock 'n' roll Just remember I'm still here for you I don't wanna say goodbye When I do, you'll be all right After all, I did it all for you Don't forget me as the colours fade When the lights go down, it's just an empty stage Okay Yes, I've been a bad guy Been higher than the blue sky And the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man I've made grown men cry Don't know why I'm still alive Yes, the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man Yes, I've been a bad guy Been higher than the blue sky And the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man I've made grown men cry Don't know why I'm still alive Yes, the truth is I don't wanna die an ordinary man

Ozzy can be a million things, but an ordinary man is not one of them.

It's like Ozzy telling us goodbye. This hurts me in the deepest recesses of my heart.

Him and Elton John have put their body's through so much and still going strong!

Hearing this song and seeing his beautiful memories warmed my heart. I never had the opportunity to see Ozzy perform live on stage, but his music will live on forever in my heart. Much love to Ozzy and Sharon. ❤

God.. it's like he's watching his own memorial service at his funeral in this video...

1970 Sabbath - Iron Man 1988 Ozzy - Miracle Man 2020 Ozzy - Ordinary Man

A fresh breath of air, a helping hand to those drowning in the current tasteless world of music. Thanks Ozzy.

Don't worry ozzy, you're no ordinary man

I think it’s long over due people start calling him the king of darkness rather than the prince of darkness. He’s been the king since the 80s

OZZY OSBOURNE "The Man" "The Myth" "The Legend" "The Prince of Darkness"

Ozzy ! If you will ever see this comment , We love you ! You made my life much better with your music and its very sad for me that i will not be able to see you in live because i was born in wrong era and country , but i want to say that you are Legend and you will always be ! And definitely not an ordinary man 🫶🏻 🤟❤

Love this song, and love Ozzy!! I was 13 when I first heard Sabbath, and been a fan since that day!! It will be a sad day when we don’t have Ozzy anymore !! I know I will shed many tears on that day, which I hope will be a long time from now! Keep singing Ozzy, never, never stop !!

Ozzy, you made a lot of grown men cry here, we love you

This feels like the moment where Freddie Mercury whispers "I still love you" at the end of Days Of Our Lives. A personal goodbye to the fans

The smile he gives seeing the reel of his kids playing when they were little, tugs on every fathers heart strings.

What an absolutely amazing collaboration this is. Can't believe it's till now that I first seen it, shown to me by my 23-year-old son. I guess I've done something right in my life raising him to appreciate good music.

When Ozzy leaves us, the Earth will stand still for a moment.

I don't want Ozzy to die, period. He's no ordinary mortal. The things he's done would have killed lesser men, and have. I started to choke up when they showed his reaction to Randy on screen. It still haunts him and I feel his pain the same as when I heard about it back in the early eighties when I was playing his albums on vinyl. This song, though is his standing in a mirror and saying "Damn it's been a hell of a ride, and I am thankful for every moment". We love him because he's genuine, he's John "Ozzy" Osborne. Titan of Metal.

i hope & pray his health improves enough so he can at least do 1 last show in 2024 to thank his fans for decades of love & support. i can promise you i'd fly anywhere for it (so thankfull i saw the 1st leg of his farewell tour in 2018 before horrible run of bad luck hit Ozzy). crazy to think that could be the last time i get to enjoy Ozzy live. we love you Ozzy! 🙏

This always moves me to tears...an incredible retrospective video with touching lyrics...

“i don’t wanna say goodbye when i do, you’ll be alright” i don’t think so, ozzy

“Don’t forget me when the colors fade”....... damn my eyes water up every time. There’s no way I could ever forget about Ozzy.

Wherever we end up....let your music still be played.... because music is life......

Ozzy you are a pure genius beyond comprehension - let your music continue to play for centuries to come - and beyond - a true inspiration and iconic - cheers.

Elton John: *stop making songs* Ozzy: *makes another album* Elton John: *IM STILL STANDING*

"I don't wanna say goodbye, when I do you'll be alright" Honestly this song chokes me up a bit

We have been brave people that have had the guts to make mistakes, learn and continue living, don’t we? That’s what I feel with this song

We will never forget the greatness of Ozzy Osborne. What he has done with his career is unforgettable. If there was no Ozzy, the 80s would have sucked. U will never be forgotten, Ozzy. We love you, Ozzy.

We need a movie about Ozzy.

Ozzy Osbourne's movie right now!

Ozzy will never die he has become immortal through his story. A legend that lives as long as humanity itself does.

If this song doesn’t bring you to tears and bring a smile to your heart and face you have no heart ❤! Oh my goodness it’s such an amazing beautiful song! Ozzy truly touched peoples souls and hearts and lives ! Ozzy please know we love you and you’re appreciated andGod bless you! I hope to one day meet you !

These new Ozzy songs, especially this one, are almost hard to watch. Im 53, grew up with Sabbath, Ozzy and that era. Ive seen Ozzy multiple times in concert. On one hand, I love his heavier music. On the other, some of this new stuff is some of the best. BUT, what saddens me is there is a deep undertone to this of saying goodbye. I know OZ has had med issues and all in recent years, and it's well documented that he probably is a medical wonder surviving the substances over the years. And Of course, he is aging as the rest of us. I get all that, I see it and all, but hard to hear someone recording what sounds like goodbye letters. Be well OZ! Thank you for so much great music!!!! Also, the song itself resonates with me deeply. Again, Im 53, health issues, Mom/dad/only brother and my only son are all gone. I struggle with my mortality alot anymore as I had such big dreams and all, and feel Ive achieved so little. So, the song itself speaks to me deeply as well. tear jerker

ELTON JOHN: I am retiring OZZY: Ey man I need you for one more hit ELTON JOHN: Hold me piano man

The part where he sees Randy and covers his eyes always makes me cry

Ozzy Osbourne I can't ever thank you enough for the music and the personality you have provided my people and my generation for our entire lives. You've prevented countless suicides and you've inspired a lot of us to make very bold moves. Thanks to you we've fought the law and won more than once.

This song feels like the good bye from Ozzy Osbourne.

2020's most underrated song, such a beautiful piece

Łzy i uśmiech wspomnienia mojej młodości gdzie Ty byłeś Idolem mojego pokolenia w Polsce ,coś się kończy coś zaczyna niby wszyscy pędzimy w tą samą stronę ale Twoja muzyka pasja i charyzma przetrwa po wieki żyj długo i szczęśliwie pozdrowienia z Polski

Ozzy man! There is a million things I'm wrong about and have been wrong about. BUT, I can assure this to the entire world! YOU WILL NOT EVER DIE AN ORDINARY MAN!!! One of your songs was played at my wedding, one of your songs was dedicated to my wife and I already have one of your songs picked for my funeral. YOULL NEVER BE AN ORDINARY MAN IF YOU TRIED!!! Your the GOD of Metal OZ forever and always!

When Ozzy sheds a tear, dammit, you cry too. You’re Immortal Ozzy, whether you’re here with us or whenever you cross over to that other Plain of Existence. We love you Oz.

I’m getting a Johnny Cash “Hurt” vibe from this video and that’s scary.

Thank you Ozzy, I'm sure when you first started you didn't think that a kid this far down our career would be listening to you, but I hope you know it will always be passed down, the legend that is Ozzy Osbourne, thank you for your dedication to your fans, and undeniable skill. Thank you Ozzy 🖤🤟

Retour sur une immense carrière, quel parcours depuis l'Angleterre jusqu'à la Californie et le reste,une légende de 75 ans,un survivant des ténèbres, le prince des chauves souris,merci Ozzy

My son just turned 5 years old and this is his favorite song. 3 generations later and your still a legend. You won't die a ordinary man.

- To sit and watch a 5-minute recap of your own life in your later years has got to be one of the most humbling and difficult things to experience... One thing's for certain, you will not leave this world as an ordinary man...

Ozzy is probably one of the most tenacious people who have ever lived on Earth

The only thing that could make this song any better is if Randy Rhodes was still alive to play this song with him.

Understanding Ozzy is sending us a goodbye message here, just bring tears to my eyes

The idea to pair Ozzy and Elton was brilliant.

I don’t want this man to go and leave us…..I still need to hear his voice.

Only thing I gotta say is Sharon should be recognized as a saint!!!!!!!!!!!!! She has endured much more than any partner should and forgave, loved, and stood by her soul partner. That’s the way love goes❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

It’s almost poetic that Elton did this song with Ozzy as they both had demons with addiction. Simply poetic and haunting all at once.

Be thankful, Ozzy is still here breathing our air. Bow your heads mortals ...

To get back up after lifetimes of pain, sorrow, addiction and tragedy is so honorable. I respect this man profoundly, so much more than the douches that pretend to be perfect. This man is a brave human being and sincere.

My brain: How many times will you listen to this song? me: Yes.

This video has a Johnny Cash "Hurt" feel to it. So powerful.

The Prince of Darkness reigns forever! 🤘🏻🖤

This is beyond beautiful… I was so lucky to see his amazingness at 4 Ozzfest’s - 2002/2003/2004/2005 and I am grateful I got to experience them all. Thank you Ozzy!!!

Ozzy: " Dunno why I still alive " Doctors: " Yeh, we also don´t get it "

I’m a grown man in my 30s and this song has me in tears. I was 6 when I heard my first sabbath song and decided to pick up the guitar, I made friends who wore dark shirts and enjoyed Oz. We all wrote Ozzy’s home back when internet was dial up; we had found his residence through att we sent so many letters that the great Ozzy sent us a signed autograph. We started a garage band in the 5th grade. After many ozzfests and other Black Sabbath or Ozzy concerts we still held true to what brought us togeather. 25 years later the band I’m in still has the very same friends that were joined together due to Ozzy. We still are following Ozzy’s every step of the way still playing many Ozzy and Black Sabbath covers. Oz your music did more than inspire it gave me a family I didn’t know I needed at the time, brothers I would’ve never found without your music. No ordinary man could move the masses, and I highly doubt that the name Ozzy will ever be forgotten as long as people like myself and others continue on. This album is full of tear jerkers and for anyone that has the appreciation for the movement Ozzy and others started this album has to be the one we all dreaded to come knowing it will probably be his last.

Ozzy, Thank you for all those great albums. You made my childhood great.

Both Ozzy and Elton have something in common.. They are survivors.

This man is a fucking legend. After all this time and abuse he’s put his body through, and he can still make a song that provokes tears.

We need to thank Sharon for saving his life.

This is as beautiful as his Dreamer song....guys like ozzy who remember Woodstock and the 70s are proof our grandparents are cooler than us

You could tell after he saw the picture of him and Randy that he really misses him. Rest in peace Randy

Didn’t start crying till I saw him react when he was posing with Randy by THAT bus. Excellent video.

My fav ozzy song.. bc it's all him, all for us!

You are the best singer ever ozzy you’re such a fantastic talented person you are so down to earth

This song makes me feel like the ending of a great movie. Your sad it's over, but your grateful you got to experience it.

Grown ass man in my late 50s sitting here all teared up after watching this. What an amazing video and what an amazing man. He's everything but ordinary. I've loved him since the beginning

What a song, what a video❤️ WHAT A MAN

5 decades... My grandfather, father, myself and my son have all enjoyed his music. His body will fail and die one day, but Ozzy? Ozzy will never die, let alone as an ordinary man.

Y’all please don’t say “this is his last year living” he’ll be here for more.

He should be crowned KING OF ROCK N ROLL!!!

Played this at my dads funeral, despite our differences, none of the foul times hold sway. Billy the viking was no ordinary man, may valhalla be your resting place old man.

I'm afraid this will be his "Johnny Cash: Hurt" epic swansong. Amazing.

"Don't forget me as the colors fade When the lights go down, it's just an empty stage" Damn.

❤️ the moment in this clip they show Randy & Ozzy next to the bus & the next scene Ozzy drops his head with tears flowing, if ya know ya know! Rest In Immortal Piece Randy Rhoads ❤️

You'll never die an ordinary man...what a showman you've been,🤘😎🙌

This feels like "Hurt" from Johnny Cash...a goodbye song.

I can't and will not get enough of this!!! GEAT SHIT!!! love you #OZZY THANK YOU FOR THE CHILDhOOD AND ADULTHOOD!!! KEEP IT ROCKING AS LONG AS YOUR BREATHING!!!!! WALK WITH YOUR FANS!!!!!

My dad passed 06.22.23. He was an extremely talented left-handed drummer who was born in Hammond. My grandma was offered to sign for Atlantic Records to compete with The Supremes. Yes, we may have never made the essential steps, but he never died an ordinary man. Skilled carpenter, musician, F&A Mason, Shriner. I love you Dad. Rock on. 10.13.67-06.22.23
