Ozzy Osbourne<\/a> reflects on his life and career on the big screen in \u201cOrdinary Man,\u201d the title track<\/a> from his new album featuring Elton John<\/a> on piano and vocals.<\/p>\n

The Stephen Lee Carr-directed clip opens with the Prince of Darkness in a movie theater as a projector cranks a film onto the screen. It begins in Birmingham, England \u2014 where he formed Black Sabbath in 1968. \u201cI was unprepared for fame\/Then everybody knew my name,\u201d he laments, as John sprinkles keys into the track.<\/p>\n

He lightly touches on drug use (\u201cBeen higher than the blue sky\u201d) and examines change in pop culture (\u201cThey tried to kill my rock and roll\u201d) before the video concludes with images of his iconic family, including Sharon, Jack and Kelly.<\/p>\n

Ordinary Man<\/em> marks Osbourne\u2019s first solo album in 10 years following 2010\u2019s Scream<\/em>. In a Reddit AMA Session<\/a> last month, the singer claimed he\u2019s already working on a new album<\/a>. \u201cI am making another album because while I can\u2019t tour, I can make music,\u201d he said, alluding to his recent health problems that include a diagnosis Parkinson\u2019s Disease.<\/a> \u201cWhat I learned from Ordinary Man<\/em>, it got the juices flowing again,\u201d he says. \u201cPeople say they write the best songs when they\u2019re unhappy, and I was unhappy last year.\u201d<\/p>\n

On March 5th, one day before the entire festival was canceled<\/a>, Osbourne announced he was pulling out<\/a> of South by Southwest. The singer was slated to appear in support of the world premiere screening of Biography: the Nine Lives of Ozzy Osbourne<\/em>, which will screen on A&E this summer.<\/p>\n
