People say to me, if you could do it all again, knowing what you know now, would you change anything? I´m like, f*** no. If I´d been clean and sober, I wouldn´t be Ozzy. If I´d done normal, sensible things, I wouldn´t be Ozzy. Look, if it ends tomorrow, I can´t complain. I´ve been all around the world. Seen a lot of things. I´ve done good... and I´ve done bad. But right now, I´m not ready to go anywhere. At the age of sixty-nine, Ozzy Osbourne was on a triumphant farewell tour, playing to sold-out arenas and rave reviews all around the world. Then disaster. In a matter of just a few weeks, he went from being hospitalised with a finger infection to having to abandon his tour - and all public life - as he faced near-total paralysis from the neck down. Last Rites is the shocking, bitterly hilarious, never-before-told story of Osbourne´s descent into hell. Along the way, he reflects on his extraordinary life and career - including his turbulent marriage to wife Sharon, his regrets over Black Sabbath´s reunion, his friendships with Slash and Zakk Wylde, and the harrowing final moments he spent with Motorhead´s Lemmy Kilmister. Unflinching but surprisingly life-affirming, Last Rites demonstrates once again why Ozzy has transcended his status as ´The Godfather of Metal´ and ´The Prince of Darkness´ to become a modern-day folk hero and national treasure.
