We’ve heard Ozzy Osbourne Say many times throughout his life that music saved him as a young man from a bleak, and probably brief life.

After decades since becoming a legend, and many health scares throughout the last year plus, music is still what’s keeping him going.

His upcoming solo album, Ordinary Man, which will be his eleventh overall, was his salvation after a strand of health scares.

He’s proven all rumors wrong about him dying, but in an interview he admitted that he is closer to the end than the beginning. He does add, however that he’s focusing on what he can control; his music.

“Do I ever think about when my time’s gonna come?” he mused. “I think about it [but] I don’t worry about it. I won’t be here in another 15 years or whatever, not that much longer, but I don’t dwell on it. It’s gonna happen to us all.”
