In the clip seen above, directed by <strong>Stephen Lee Carr<\/strong> and produced by <strong>Sharon Osbourne<\/strong>, <strong>Jack Osbourne<\/strong>, <strong>Peter Glowski<\/strong>, <strong>R. Greg Johnston<\/strong> and <strong>Stephen Lee Carr<\/strong>, <strong>Ozzy<\/strong> sits in front of a screen watching clips and looking at photos from his early days with <strong>BLACK SABBATH<\/strong> to headlining venues around the world as a solo artist. Throughout, <strong>Osbourne<\/strong> faces good times and bad, going from melancholy as he views troubling moments (the loss of <strong>Randy Rhoads<\/strong>) to happy times alongside his wife and family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Marking his first new solo music in almost 10 years, <strong>&#8220;Ordinary Man&#8221;<\/strong> was preceded by the release of three singles, the No. 1 rock track <strong>&#8220;Under The Graveyard&#8221;<\/strong>, which was followed by <strong>&#8220;Straight To Hell&#8221;<\/strong> featuring <strong>GUNS N&#8217; ROSES<\/strong> guitarist <strong>Slash<\/strong>, and the aforementioned title cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;It was a lot of fun to do though it&#8217;s a lot different from my other albums,&#8221; <strong>Ozzy<\/strong> says of the LP. &#8220;We recorded it quickly, which I haven&#8217;t done since the first <strong>BLACK SABBATH<\/strong> album. This made it a different process, which I actually enjoyed.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Recorded in Los Angeles, the album features producer <strong>Andrew Watt<\/strong> on guitars, <strong>Duff McKagan<\/strong> (<strong>GUNS N&#8217; ROSES<\/strong>) on bass and <strong>Chad Smith<\/strong> (<strong>RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS<\/strong>) on drums. Beyond the core band, <strong>&#8220;Ordinary Man&#8221;<\/strong> features a who&#8217;s-who of <strong>Ozzy<\/strong> friends and collaborators including <strong>Elton John<\/strong>, <strong>Post Malone<\/strong> and <strong>Tom Morello<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;It all just came together,&#8221; <strong>Ozzy<\/strong> explains of the guest stars. &#8220;<strong>Slash<\/strong> is a dear friend of mine, as is <strong>Elton<\/strong>. When I was writing <strong>&#8216;Ordinary Man&#8217;<\/strong>, it reminded me of an old <strong>Elton<\/strong> song and I said to <strong>Sharon<\/strong>, &#8216;I wonder if he would sing on it?&#8217; We asked, and lo and behold, he agreed and sings and play piano on the song.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ozzy Osbourne has released the official music video for &#8220;Ordinary Man&#8221;, the title track of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-79855","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79855","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=79855"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79855\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":79856,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79855\/revisions\/79856"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=79855"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=79855"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=79855"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
