Ozzy Osbourne - Bark At The Moon [KARAOKE]

Bark At The Moon is the title track of Ozzy Osbourne’s third solo album, released in 1983. The song is one of his most popular and recognizable songs. The song tells the story of a werewolf who rises from the grave to seek revenge on those who wronged him. Some fans and critics have interpreted the song as a metaphor for Ozzy’s own comeback after being fired from Black Sabbath in 1979 and struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.

The song can also be seen as a reflection of Ozzy’s rebellious and defiant attitude, as he barks back at the critics and the authorities who tried to censor or ban his music. It was inspired by one of Ozzy’s old personal catchphrases, “Eat shit and bark at the moon”. The song also references the occult and the supernatural, which were common themes in Ozzy’s lyrics, influenced by his interest in horror movies and books.

The song was a commercial and critical success, reaching number 21 on the UK Singles Chart and number 15 on the US Mainstream Rock Chart. It has also received a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Vocal Performance in 1984.

Bark At The Moon was a significant milestone in Ozzy’s solo career, as it marked the first album that he wrote and produced himself, without the help of his former guitarist and collaborator Randy Rhoads, who died in a plane crash in 1982. The album also introduced a new guitarist, Jake E. Lee, who co-wrote some of the songs with Ozzy. The album was well-received, selling over three million copies in the US and earning a platinum certification.

The song and the album showed that Ozzy was not only a talented singer, but also a creative and resilient artist, who could overcome personal and professional challenges and reinvent himself. It also demonstrated his influence and legacy in the heavy metal genre, as he earned the respect and admiration of his peers and fans.

Ozzy has lived a remarkable and turbulent life, full of highs and lows, successes and failures, joys and sorrows. He has been a pioneer and a legend in the music industry, inspiring and influencing generations of musicians and fans. He has also been a loving and supportive husband and father, despite his flaws and mistakes. He has shown that he is not afraid to face his demons and overcome his obstacles, and that he is always ready to BARK AT THE MOON!

Let’s hope he still has many years to live.
