Fuck me, that’s so insanely rock n roll that he performed live with Sabbath just 9 days ago

Sad to read this but what a life he has had.

Paris 1970, just awesome

He had a suicide pact with Sharon should one of them get Alzheimer’s. Dignitas?

Rip.

Metal as fuck way to check out.

Total legend, RIP.

Mr Crowley, still one of the best songs ever.

Dave!

Which apparently raised £140m for charity.

The performance of Mama I’m Coming Home from that gig is a proper tearjerker, like he really was saying goodbye

R.i.p. (not that that sounds quite right or fitting for him ).

Oooft

Oh no. A true legend. Genuinely sad to hear this.

He was instrumental in creating an entire genre of music (one of the broadest and most diverse at that). Very few people can claim that.

More than a bit sad to read it. RIP Oz.

Never really liked the music but there's no doubt he was a legend. The At Home with the Osbournes was 20 odd years ago and he looked not long for the earth even back then so no age really but given his life, quite a respectable innings in the end..

RIP Ozzy. Probably the only reality show the whole family watched together when I was growing up. Still remember the episode when his new 7 series arrives and the voice control can’t understand him and he starts swearing at it. Something which my dad mimics to this day whenever something similar happens.

RIP, but what a life and he was incredibly influential from a music perspective.

The Osbournes reality show was such great viewing back in the day, can't believe how long ago that was now.

"Does anyone want a Burrito" in a heavy Brummie accent, gets similar treatment whenever Mexican food is mentioned around our place

Rod Stewart apparently decided an AI-generated “selfie stick” montage was an ideal way to show his respects

That's weird and creepy.
