3.0 out of 5 stars a pretty good,solid album, November 29, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Ozzman Cometh (Audio CD)

The ozzman cometh Cd is not a bad Greatest hits album except for black sabbath parts. MORE OZZY! Ozzy Where Are thou?

1)Black Sabbath 7/10 Like I said no SABBATH! But the song is somewhat okay

2)War pigs "

3)Goodbye to romance 10/10Finally we're getting somewhere! This song is from Blizzard of ozz, one of Ozzy's biggest and best selling album of his solo career. With Randy RHoads it's hard not to have a great song. This song is about saying goodbye to sabbath, which i'm not saying is bad. I like the synthesizers in the end

4)Crazy Train 10/10 This is a good solid song from ozzy. Obviously its one of his most famous. Nothing really extremly great about it to mention.

5)Mr. Crowley 10/10 This is a good song with synthesizers and it is good but i think that ozzy should have stopped at crazy train when picking the good songs from Blizzard. I love the solo that "went to the skies and back" if you know what i mean. Wait there is 2 solos! It reminds me of halloween when getting the big candies!

6) Over the mountain 9/10 This is a good song but it's the only one from Diary of a madman!! Where is "Flying high again", "Diary of a madman" and others? There is nothing bad about this song but it's the last with Randy Rhoads!!! (Who sadly ,tragicaly died in a freak plane accident.)

7)Paranoid 6/10 How many times ozzy? NO MORE SABBATH!!! Should have went with Suicide solution. Well at least this is Ozzy's version of Paranoid. (different from Sabbath version) It's a good song but just don't want to hear sabbath when we bought Ozzy!

8)Bark at the moon 10/10 This is a very good and solid song. The riff is just mind-blowing. Finally ozzy made a decision where he got the best song from the album and put it on the greatest hits album.

9)Shot in the dark 10/10 This again is a very good song. probably the best from the "Ultimate Sin" album. Nothing special to mention about it.

10)Crazy babies 9/10 This is a good song but just like the Over the mountain incident we have another song that isn't really the best from the original album(No rest for the wicked).
Ozzy really should have picked Miracle man.

11)No more tears 10/10 This is a great song. A very emotional song. This song proves the ozzy can make a great album and great songs even when he is sober! (In case you didn't know the album this song came from "No more tears" was made by ozzy osbourne when he's in his sober stage)

12) Mama i'm coming home 10/10 This is one of the best songs on the album

13)I don't wanna change the world 11/10 Best song on album hands down. This live version is very raw and great. I would buy Live and loud just for this song

14)I just want you 8/10 Its not a bad song but there is nothing special about it. It came from the "Ozzmosis" album which i think isn't that great except for "Perry Mason"

15)Back on earth 8/10 The same as before, this song isn't really special either.

Overall not that many great standout tracks but overall it wasn't that bad. But if Ozzy ever creates a greatist hits album i hope he does delete the sabbath stuff, choose the best song(s) from each album. Thats it, the rest is perfectly fine. The bonus tracks all suck!

5.0 out of 5 stars (Almost) a complete compilation of ozzy's greates, January 10, 2007

This album is the original "Best Of" album by Ozzy Osbourne. It features a few songs by Black Sabbath, and the rest are from his solo carrier. Dont be surprised when you hear different lyrics for "War Pigs", this is the original version about witches that the record company forced the band to change. The remastering definately brings out the bass in the tracks that wasnt as present in the original analog recordings. Great list of tracks, but it could have used "Diary of a Madman" and "Perry Mason". the b-side track also should not have been placed right after "I Just Want You" as the keyboard part sounds very similar.

I am an ozzy and Black Sabbath fan from way back.I bought this disk for one track only and that is Walpurgis.For all you greenies out there this track was done before paranoid was released and the song later became known as war pigs.It was recorded on 4 track 1970 equipment so if you are 15 you might not dig it.The only way to experience all of sabbath and ozzy material is to buy it all.No this album does not have all ozzies good stuff,but it does have some good ones.
