John Michael Osbourne was born on December 3, 1948 in Birmingham, England. Throughout an extraordinary career, which has so far spanned four decades, Osbourne has made major contributions to the worlds of music and popular culture. As co-founder, lead singer, and songwriter for Black Sabbath (1970-79) he was, in effect, a chief architect of the genre now known as "heavy metal," creating the powerful new sound and provocative performance style that would forever expand the definition of rock music. Black Sabbath has sold more than 25 million records in the U.S. alone.

Facing Hell Lyrics
Ozzy Osbourne
You make promise of protection
To a future after life
To the final resurrection
And to eternal paradise
But then Im blinded with temptation
And to every mortal sin
Is it God that sits there waiting?
Or will the darkness suck me in
Lets wake up the dead
Oh yeah
Its better that never you know
More tears are shed
Oh yeah
Im praying that youll never know
That Im facing hell
Oh the children sit and listen
The belief was in their eyes
In a land without tomorrows
Through the night you hear their cries
But then your eyes just skip the pages
Of a book that never ends
Is it God that sits there waiting?
Do you hear the call again?
Lets wake up the dead
Oh yeah
Its better that never you know
More tears are shed
Oh yeah
Im praying that youll never know
That Im facing hell
Its just crazy world we live in
And Im out of my mind
You pray tomorrow but your leaving today
Evil one is coming and hes knocking your door
Cause todays the day youll pay
Lets wake up the dead
Oh yeah
Its better that never you know
More tears are shed
Oh yeah
Im praying that youll never know
Lets wake up the dead
Oh yeah
Its better that never you know
More tears are shed
Oh yeah
Im praying that youll never know
That Im facing hell
That Im facing hell
That Im facing hell
That Im facing hell
