OZZY OSBOURNE On Wearing A Mask And Social Distancing - "If The President Says Something, I Do The Opposite"; Audio

Ozzy Osbourne recently sat down with co-host Billy Morrison for another episode of Ozzy Speaks on SiriusXM’s Ozzy’s Boneyard. Throughout the episode Ozzy discussed music, talking about the story behind "No More Tears", how The Beatles “always had great melodies” and more.

Additionally, Ozzy and Billy Morrison spoke about the pandemic reminding listeners to wear a mask and practice social distancing with Ozzy saying ,“I don’t go anywhere, if the president says something I do the opposite, he changes his mind every hour. I mean literally I am going ‘what?’”

Ozzy also opened up about sharing your feelings with someone you trust, especially while remaining at home. “If you got a best friend or you got someone who you trust don’t be afraid to share. Because you know what, we are all in the shithole right now. We are all in an environment we don’t want to be in. When I’m in a room in my head on my own it’s a bad fucking place, my head never tells me anything fucking good.”

The Ozzy Speaks episode which aired on SiriusXM’s Ozzy’s Boneyard is available On Demand on the SiriusXM app. Full episode here.
