Ozzy Osbourne says he’s focused on making ‘one more album’ after undergoing surgery to fix broken neck

Ozzy Osbourne says he wants to make ‘one more album’ after undergoing surgery to repair a four-year-old injury to his neck.

The 74-year-old heavy metal icon, in conversation with Metal hammersaid that after he fully recovers from the surgical procedure, he plans to make new music and tour behind it.

“I’m getting myself fit… I want to make another album and then get back on the road,” the Crazy Train singer told the publication.

The Bark at the Moon artist said he is looking forward to working with producer Andrew Watt, with whom he has worked in recent years on the records Ordinary Man (2020) and Patient Number 9 (2022).

“I’m just starting to work on it now,” Osbourne said, “and we’ll be recording early next year.

The No More Tears artist said he wanted to “take his time with this.”

The Mama, I’m Coming Home singer opened up about the medical procedures he has undergone: ‘I’ve had all the surgeries now, thank God…I feel good – it just kept going.

“I thought months ago that I would be back on my feet, I just couldn’t get used to this way of life, something was constantly wrong.”

Osbourne said the surgery on his “spine went great” and that he is “no longer in pain,” but that he can’t yet “walk properly.”

Osbourne initially suffered neck damage almost twenty years ago, during a quad bike accident in December 2003.

While he made a full recovery from the accident, a fall in 2019 aggravated the neck injury again and led to what Osbourne said Piers Morgan uncensored was ‘five years of absolute hell for me and my family.’

When Morgan honestly asked how he was feeling in the interview, Osbourne revealed, “Two days ago I finally had my last procedure.”

‘I can’t believe I’ve gotten to the end. The most important thing is over now, I’m done with the operation,” he admitted.

Five years: While he made a full recovery from the accident, a fall in 2019 re-aggravated the neck injury and led to what Osbourne said on Piers Morgan Uncensored, ‘five years of absolute hell for me and my family’

‘But it has been five years of absolute hell for me and my family. The family has been very supportive,” he added.

‘I couldn’t have done it without them. It was a very bad scene. I have Parkinson’s, but I never think about it,” he said of the disease, which he was also diagnosed with in 2019.

Ozzy’s son Jack added that one of the “biggest misconceptions” about his father’s health was that it was “a result of Parkinson’s disease, but in reality it was the neck injury and fall he suffered in 2019.” ‘

“I kept working with it until I fell and then everything fell undone,” he admitted.

‘I’m not complaining, I’m going to continue. If you’re still moving, you won’t be dead,” Ozzy added, before Ozzy’s wife of more than 40 years, Sharon, explained how the family’s life has “changed dramatically” after the accident.

‘There are so many people who can identify, who have a partner… it changes your whole life. Suddenly you go in a different direction and your life changes so drastically. It’s really hard,” Sharon admitted.

‘Especially in the summer, because every summer Ozzy works, goes out and does festivals. Over the past five years, our lives have changed dramatically,” she admitted.

‘On the other hand, it’s great that I’ve had Ozzy at home for five years. He drives me crazy!’ Sharon said laughing.

Supportive: ‘But it’s been five years of absolute hell for me and my family. The family has been very supportive,” he added

Parkinson: ‘It wouldn’t have been possible without them. It was a very bad scene. I have Parkinson’s, but I never think about it,” he said of the disease, which he was also diagnosed with in 2019

Misconception: Ozzy’s son Jack added that one of the “biggest misconceptions” about his father’s health was that it was “a result of Parkinson’s disease, but in reality it was the neck injury and fall he suffered in 2019 incurred’

Partner: ‘There are so many people who can identify, who has a partner… it changes your whole life. Suddenly you go in a different direction and your life changes so drastically. It’s really hard,” Sharon admitted

Both Ozzy and Sharon had said in recent years that they were planning to move back to Britain, as Sharon admitted they were coming home.

“Yes, that’s true, but due to Ozzy’s issues and health issues, he is not ready to leave this country and its doctors due to several things happening to him medically,” Sharon explained.

“We feel like we’re in a good place now, but we’ve had our house for almost forty years and we haven’t lived in it properly for over twenty years, so when you decide to move back into a house, you realize that all that needs to be changed,” she said.

She added that it “takes forever” to install all the gas and water pipes in and around the house that need to be redone.

Jack admitted that he doesn’t think it will happen and that he is the only one in the family who thinks it is a ‘terrible idea’.
