When I was writing \u2018Ordinary Man,\u2019 it reminded me of an old Elton song and I said to Sharon, \u2018I wonder if he would sing on it?\u2019 We asked and lo and behold, he agreed and sings and play piano on the song.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cIt was a lot of fun to do though it\u2019s a lot different from my other albums. We recorded it quickly, which I haven\u2019t done since the first Black Sabbath album. This made it a different process, which I actually enjoyed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So far the musician has released two songs from the album, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/ozzy-osbourne-under-the-graveyard-music-video-929113\/\">\u201cUnder the Graveyard\u201d<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/ozzy-osbourne-straight-to-hell-video-933996\/\">\u201cStraight To Hell,\u201d<\/a> which features Slash. Along with the news of the upcoming release, Osbourne has also shared \u201cOrdinary Man,\u201d a soaring ballad with John on piano.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"2.8378378378378\">\n<p lang=\"und\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0AOrnQgkEt\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/0AOrnQgkEt<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ozzy Osbourne (@OzzyOsbourne) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OzzyOsbourne\/status\/1215501954920566784?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">January 10, 2020<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The album is available for <a href=\"https:\/\/store.ozzy.com\/collections\/ordinary-man\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">pre-order now<\/a> and includes an instant download of \u201cOrdinary Man\u201d with each pre-order. <em>Ordinary Man<\/em> will be available in a standard CD, deluxe CD, black vinyl, deluxe gatefold swirl color vinyl, picture disc and digital album.
