1. Getting old sucks! 😢

2. Semi-retirement Ozzy I hope your doing well from the next prince of darkness spitre

3. My Ozzy memories will last til I die. His legend as 1 of 4 beginning Metal Gods will last forever! Salute

4. he created heavy metal all bands should think him

5. The immortal God of metal!!! One of the greatest legends in all of music as a whole! Legends, much like Paratroopers, never die… we just go to hell and regroup!

6. Ozzy would do well with a residency on a Vegas casino stage. He'd probably have to sign all sorts of wavers considering his fondest wish as to the manner of how he wants to end his career: die onstage while performing.

7. He is a legend, and has to prove nothing musically. I feel sad that he is physically worn out and hope he has a good life post performing. Also he shit on people who would not take an untested, experimental drug. Love him as a performer, but fuck you for wishing death on me as a thinking person.

8. He’s the true king

9. Thank you Ozzy. You've hoed a long hard row. Rest 💗😘

10. Ozzy should take a page out of Slayer's book, and go out on top. Don't waste away on stage. He's been playing for over a half century and it would be a shame to see him reduced at the end.

11. I'm glad I got to see Ozzy a handful of times in early and mid 2000s. I met Zakk at an Ozzfest one year on the side stage. He was pretty chill and nice.

12. 🤟🤟🤟

13. I cannot believe the devastation OZ must feel. When you live a life like he has, time f'cking flies.Much Respect to OZZY, A TRUE LEGEND! If I had one wish, it would be to go back to the 80's and NEVER COME BACK ANDSTAY YOUNG! Forever a Rocker Chick!💯🎸🎤🥁🔊😈

14. I feel SO blessed to have seen OZZY a couple times live in concert! An absolute legend. Best wishes OZZ!

15. Video linkups…. like Live Aid. Oz will find a way if he needs the stage experience still. But there’s definitely something to be said for taking care of your health, your body, & giving much needed deep rest. Maybe in a couple of years or so…..

16. Black Sabbath still remains UNDEFEATED!! We ❤️ U Ozzy!!

17. Ozzy in vegas is what vegas needs,a real metal act

18. We have to get older we hope to at least, eventually.

    Praying for the best possible outcome for us all Amen
    🌲❤️🙏💓🗝️

19. 60 years of life Ozzy gave.

20. Ozzman is the BOSS…… Black Sabbath completely innovated heavy music and built foundation to give voice to every metal kid…… for those of you, who were around that time of early Sabbath, you can consider yourselves lucky, to grow up with such pioneers of music

21. I saw Metallica open for Ozzy in Austin back in 1986. Master of Puppets / Ultimate Sin tours.

22. Retiring from touring doesn’t mean he won’t do events. Im sure hitting the road that hard after that many decades gets tiring. Not many artist out there still even doing music anymore as long as he has. Thanks for all he has ever done for us, the fans.

23. I will never ever forget the first time that I heard Black Sabbath. I was 14 and it was 1969 . Many things have changed, but one thing remained a constant.
    Ozzy is and always was the real deal, and we owe him our thanks and our gratitude for all of the great music he was a huge part of.
    Godspeed, Ozzy. When your sing we will listen.

24. Jake E Lee, Zack, Joe Holmes all of them should be there.

25. Why not a concert pay per view? You could have different bands do mini sets between Ozzy's sets. This would give him time to rest to give w00 per crnt( may start domething new, stand up comics are doing great with it) Ozzy could do sets or songs with the original Ssbbsth mrmbers( Aldo injured Bkll Ward could perform in this situation without worry. Zack could do Ozzy and his songs together. Ozzy znf Jake E Lee should bury the hatchet and do their songs together. Ee are all getting yo be old men. We should not go to our grave shell holding s grudge for arguments we had 35 years sgo. It would be a tribute to Ozzy's legacy and those that were with him when he did it.

26. It would be absolutely AMAZING if Ozzy did a residency in Vegas. That would be so awesome. Especially considering it's just a five hour drive for me. I've seen Ozzy twice, once in the 1980's and once in the early 1990's, but I'd LOVE to take my 14 year old son to see him. Please Ozz, please settle down in Vegas for a while. Pretty please? You deserve the rest, and the world deserves one last chance to see the Godfather of Heavy Metal. Okay, maybe we don't deserve you Ozzy, but we sure as shit love you.

27. Thanks Ozzy now is time to enjoy your grand children.

28. Saw Black Sabbath in 2013 (minus Bill Ward) and it was absolutely the best concert I've ever heard.

29. I like how Ozzy says he's hanging it up, but his blood sucking "team" one of them being his wife says we're looking into ways he can still perform, dance monkey dance. Let the man take a day off he's earned it.

30. NO MORE TOURS-TOURS-TOURS! Stay retired. Go be a normal person for what’s left of your life. And get right with Jesus Christ!

31. Ozzy is a legend an icon he doesn't need to explain nothing to nobody.. When he passes the world will stop, remember Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix

32. I believe Ozzy will make a come back and blow every one's mind! One last time !

33. I can't believe he's still with us. I'm hypothesizing that massive amounts of drugs and alcohol acted as a preservative for him. What a legend!
    I finally saw him live in '96 on the "No More Tours" tours, when he was supposedly hanging it up then. That was a fun show; I had a five foot tall beautiful blonde on my shoulders topless for half the show. Of course, she was on the jumbotron screen a lot. That woman is now my wife.

34. Don’t worry Sharon already has the hologram ready to go. There is no way she is going to let the Gravy Train come off the rails!

35. My first concert in 73 Black Sabbath

36. Portnoy. Lol

37. Ozzy has and will always be my favorite artist. His music inspired me to start playing when I was in middle school. Long live the prince of darkness 🤘🤘🤘

38. How many top level singers can be proud to have remained on top for as long as Ozzy? Not many that I can think of!

39. Am I missing something,he should retire,the guy has been touring for 50 fuckin years! Take a break mate jesus.

40. Phil is great front man. He has brought us a lot of great music and I will still back him and his bands. Stop crying woke cry babies. It's heavy metal so don't be such a sensitive Sally people. J*

41. Ozzy, you brought us Randy. You brought us Zakk. You brought us you. So many of us have been around since day one. It is difficult to see any of you go, but even in retirement us old folks in our hearts and minds we will never forget.

42. Too bad Zakk The Edgelord isn't retiring.

43. He should have 25 years ago. He's been lip singing for years.

44. Ozzy is unpredictable. I still believe there is good chance he will do huge comeback next year. Like my comment in the year. I believe it 100%. I can see the future.

45. I think I was 9yrs old when I first heard Paranoid, I was born in 1961. I've been a fan ever since. Hopefully Ozzy can do some shows that don't require him to travel so he can keep on rockin'. If he does do that we will appreciate it, if he doesn't or can't, then i for one have many fantastic memories and we know that Ozzy will always be there for his fans no matter what. Rock on!!
