Love for the audience and retirement
The legendary 71-year-old Ozzy Osbourne talked in an interview with The Mirror about his love for the audience and retirement recently. The Black Sabbath singer said that he will only retire when he “can hear them nail a lid on my box. And then I’ll fucking do an encore. I’m the Prince of Darkness.”
“You know the time when I will retire? When I can hear them nail a lid on my box. And then I’ll fucking do an encore. I’m the Prince of Darkness. When you feel that audience jumping, it’s a better feeling than orgasm. It is the best love affair of my life. The party is on, man. I feel honored people still want to see me. To be Ozzy Osbourne, it could be worse… I could be Sting.”
