What Has Ozzy Osbourne Said About His Funeral Ceremony?
Ozzy Osbourne had ideas about his funeral.
Although funeral plans have yet to be revealed by his family, the former Black Sabbath front man was known for telling his fans he wanted his ceremony to be upbeat instead of a “mope fest.”
"It’s worth remembering that a lot of people see nothing but misery their whole lives," he shared in a 2011 interview. "So by any measure, most of us in this country — especially rockstars like me — are very lucky. That’s why I don’t want my funeral to be sad. I want it to be a time to say 'thanks.'"
Ozzy Osbourne Opened Up About His Funeral in the Past
Ozzy Osbourne said he 'didn't care' what music was played at this funeral.
Despite music making him a legend, the “Iron Man” rocker once admitted he “doesn’t care” what songs are played at his funeral.
"They can put on a medley of Justin Bieber, Susan Boyle and We Are the Diddymen if it makes ’em happy — but I do want to make sure it’s a celebration, not a mope fest," Ozzy insisted. "I’d also like some pranks: maybe the sound of knocking inside the coffin; or a video of me asking my doctor for a second opinion on his diagnosis of 'death.' There’ll be no harping on the bad times.”
His sentiments regarding music choice seemingly changed in 2016, telling NME, “I definitely don't want my [expletive] greatest hits album – I never ever play that thing, I'm [expletive] embarrassed about it. And I definitely don't want a [expletive] happy song – I'm dead."
