Ozzy Osbourne - Mama, I'm Coming Home [KARAOKE]

Details

Description

Mama, I'm Coming Home is a power ballad by Ozzy Osbourne, released in 1991 as part of his sixth solo album No More Tears. The song was co-written by Ozzy, his guitarist Zakk Wylde, and the late Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister. The lyrics are inspired by Ozzy's love for his wife Sharon, who stood by him through his struggles with addiction and helped him get sober. Ozzy used to call her "Mama" on the phone when he was on tour, and the song expresses his longing to return to her and his family.

The song was a hit for Ozzy, reaching number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 2 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. It also received a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Vocal Performance. The song showed a softer and more reflective side of Ozzy, who was known for his heavy metal antics and wild lifestyle. The song is still one of his most popular and beloved songs, and he often performs it live with a video montage of his family in the background.

Ozzy Osbourne is a legend in the rock world, but he is also notorious for his outrageous and sometimes shocking behavior. He has been involved in many controversies and scandals during his wild rocker life. One of his lesser doings involved him offending the entire city of San Antonio by urinating on the Alamo, a historic monument and a symbol of Texas independence. He did this in 1982, while he was wearing a dress and drunk on alcohol. He was arrested and banned from the city for ten years. He later apologized and donated $10,000 to the Daughters of the Republic of Texas, the group that maintains the Alamo. He also performed a benefit concert for the city in 1992, after his ban was lifted. Ozzy said that he did not know what the Alamo was and that he was just looking for a place to relieve himself. He also claimed that he was wearing his wife’s dress because she had hidden his clothes to prevent him from going out. What a lovely sight! LOL
