Ozzy Osbourne: "I'm soooo not the Prince Of Darkness"

Ozzy Osbourne has revealed that when Black Sabbath William Friedkin's 1973 big screen adaptation of The Exorcist they were so scared they had to sleep in the same bed with the lights on.

"When The Exorcist came out we'd never seen anything like it," Ozzy told Metro. "We were crapping ourselves!"

"We had to go and see [1973 comedy caper film] The Sting immediately afterwards to take our minds off it. We spent the night all on the same bed in the hotel scared shitless. That's how much of a Prince Of Darkness I am!"

I cant remember anyone calling him that back in the day, it seems to be since the MTV thing happened. When people say Prince Of Darkness it would fit someone like Nick Cave more. Get rid of it Ozz it doesnt suit you.

OZZY was a legend, however now he is just a joke, the last decent album he recorded was no more tears and that was 20 years ago.

@MARS -- No More Tears? Try Bark at the Moon (and that's being really generous)

Andymark Shut the hell up. Have you every pionered a genre of music that millions of people love and enjoy? No, so go home and die like an animal.

Andymark, all you do is post pointless fucking comments on EVERYTHING. Do you actually like rock music? I'm not a fan of Ozzy, but you don't hear me crying about it. Get a fucking life? Thanks bro :)

Listen SABBATH had four members, not one and it was SABBATH not OZZY'S solo albums that changed the face of rock.
