Ozzy Osbourne has passed away,

Although I liked and saw a few times both Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath,, they were not one of my favorite rock bands probably because was never into their excursions into pagan metal and thought that sub-genre along with the fan styles were nonsense. Many of those types were into hard drugs, especially smack and crank. This Ozzy song, Shot In The Dark is on my most played MP3 playlist:

 
Out on the streets, I'm stalking the night
I can hear my heavy breathing
Paid for the kill, but it doesn't seem right
Something there I can't believe in

[Pre-Chorus]
Voices are calling from inside my head
I can hear them, I can hear them
Vanishing memories of things that were said
They can't try to hurt me now

[Chorus]
But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
Just a shot in the dark
Always creeping up on you, alright

[Verse 2]
Taught by the powers that preach over me
I can hear their empty reasons
I wouldn't listen, I learned how to fight
I opened up my mind to treason

[Pre-Chorus]
But just like the wounded, and when it's too late
They'll remember, they'll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me now
[Chorus]
But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
Just a shot in the dark
Always creeping up on you, alright
