Ozzy Osbourne<\/a> producer Andrew Watt<\/a> said the pair had recorded some songs together which haven\u2019t yet been released.<\/p>\n He explained that they\u2019d listened to them the night before Black Sabbath<\/a>\u2019s Back to the Beginning<\/a> concert in 2025 \u2013 but as a result of Osbourne\u2019s death<\/a> 17 days after the show, he hadn\u2019t felt able to play them back since.<\/p>\n \u201cThere are some songs that we made for a specific reason,\u201d Watt told Rolling Stone<\/em><\/a> in a recent interview. \u201cAnd, yeah, that\u2019s all I can say. They’re hard for me to listen to.\u201d<\/p>\n READ MORE:<\/strong>\u00a0Ozzy Osbourne’s ‘Digital DNA’ to Endure With Interactive Avatar<\/a><\/p>\n He did add that there were \u201ckind of\u201d plans to release the music at some point, and continued: \u201cThe night before the concert, I actually went in Birmingham with Sharon<\/a> and a couple of people to go get a curry, and I was texting with Ozzy. He was in his hotel room, and he was, like, \u2018Come to the hotel, come to the hotel.\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cI was sitting with Sharon and we were both like, \u2018He has a big day tomorrow. Maybe I shouldn\u2019t go, \u2018cause he\u2019ll get excited and everything.\u2019 But [Ozzy] was, like, \u2018No, you\u2019re coming to the hotel. You are coming.\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cSo I went. I brought a curry with me and sat with him. And he was drawing like he usually does, and we sat and we listened to the stuff that we\u2019d made, and made notes. Watt \u2013 who produced Ozzy\u2019s last two albums,\u00a0Ordinary Man<\/em><\/a> and Patient Number 9<\/em><\/a> \u2013 admitted he still misses the Prince of Darkness every day. \u201cHe had so many things he taught me\u2026 And if Ozzy Osbourne chose you, he gave you a career,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cI always loved rock music, but I was a pop producer<\/a> before he chose to let me stand next to him\u2026 and then I got to do all these amazing things after. But he was the first one. And\u2026 he chose Randy Rhoads<\/a>. He chose Zakk Wylde;\u00a0Jake E. Lee<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n He want on to namecheck Yungblud<\/a> as one of the final examples: \u201c[He] was on an amazing path before the Back To The Beginning concert, but Ozzy chose \u2018Changes\u2019 for him to sing\u2026 [He] loved [Yungblud] as a person and what he was doing as an artist and brought him out there. And he sang that song, and it changed his life.\u201d<\/p>\n Between Black Sabbath and his solo career, Ozzy Osbourne became one of the most famous frontmen in hard rock history.
