Ozzy + Type O Negative = fucking awesome

What a great song!!!!!!! RIP MISTER STEEL!!!! And Ozzies great as usual!!!

It just needs Pete's vocals, with Ozzy to make it complete...

Ozzy and Type-O. A "match" made in heaven.

What a kick ass cover, I had this on a 45 by Status Quo I played the shit out of it

I know this cover since I was like...11 or 12 years old. I was already a huge Sabbath/Ozzy fan. I used to listen to it so many times alone at home, and I had no idea it was a cover. Now it strikes me as one of the best cover songs out there, along with Hendrix playing Dylan.

The Metal Never dies \m/

I would love to know what Francis Rossi thinks of this Cover version of his 1968 Classic. LONG LIVE THE STATUS QUO!!!!!

I remember buying this soundtrack as a young kid and having my parents question me when they heard Howard’s voice during the movie clips featured on the soundtrack haha. At the age I was they didn’t want me listening or watching anything Howard Stern related and here I would end up loving his show years later ha. I was more along for the ride during the Artie era more than Jackie. I always had to catch myself quickly monitoring the CD so that only the songs would play if my parents were home, though I could get away with the Crxckhead Bob feature before live AC/DC would blast lol, and this song is actually what introduced me to checking out more Type O. I loved Ozzy which was icing on the cake but musically I loved this song so much the heaviness of it with the ambient feel, that I had to check out Type O’s catalog up to that point and man how I was missing out before, and in for a crazy treat of awesome music. Have always loved Type O Negatives sound with guitar and bass tones. They definitely had their own sound and nobody to this day has that awesome sound. Some try though, and not counting the other project stuff we get from Kenny. Besides the special features of both Kenny and Pete’s Axe’s, I loved the use of Chorus pedals with distortion along with their reverbs and delays but that Chorus sound is truly what gave Type O their unique sound with how they incorporated it. Like what Zakk was using for effects on Ozzmosis with tracks like See You On The Otherside. Producers etc were all trying to copy that Soundgarden Blackhole Sun acid tone sound style with both clean and dirty channels. I know Type O used axe and mini etc but at end of day that is chorus and distortion. Anyway I would then hear the version of this song with Pete’s vocals only and I absolutely love that version! Must admit I like it more, not that I dislike Ozzy’s awesome version any less, and maybe the fact that Petes vocal version was so rare at the time to find, may have also made the excitement of it stand out more, but once I found a Pete vocal version in HQ I was in Metal Heaven! The way he sings it sounds so good and I will find myself playing only his version a lot more now. Though what I usually will do is I have this version, a version with Pete only and a version with both Pete and Ozzy. I find myself listening to the song in a mix 3 times in a row lol. Gives me the excuse to play it a few times and never get sick of Kenny’s riffs and that guitar tone along with Pete’s bass, just gnarly. Yelloooow woe woe wa woooooooooe haha awe man Pete was cool as Fxck. RIP man 🤘🎸🤘

“Hail and farewell to me” - Peter

My gosh. How long have I not listened to this song?

So. Great!!!

This is one of my favourite song

Ozzy and peter still rule

OZZY, you are sensational!!!!

My favorite song

A song written by Status Quo and performed by Ozzy. Cool!

How did they not do an entire album together? This just works so well.

Damn this is epic

THE METAL IS ALIIIIVE!!

Hey Pete

🔥🤘🔥

Great cover

"OZ-ZY! OZ-ZY! OZ-ZY! OZ-ZY! OZ-ZY!"

People aren't realizing Ozzy's fucking Melody lines make this song sound like an anthem more than a 'Song' or 'vocal cover'. Ya gotta know music (and Ozzy's range to understand)

2021 🎧🤟🏼

Senior in high school getting stoned at lake before school to this CD 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

Me, too, I can see the Mystic Man.

Alan Strom 1 second ago Francis Rossi wrote this when he was 19 yrs old

Those last incomprehensible lyrics at the end... /WE ARE [her] CHIMNEY WIND/ ???

Best song for a hardcore video game battle. Or a goddamn uphill siege on a fortress.

epic cover!

For years myself nor could my parents ever understand what he’s saying at the end

🤘

I always said pictures was one of the very first metal songs. People would say no its not metal and black sabbath was first anyway. Somehow felt exonerated when I was working in a kitchen with the radio on and heard this come on

Why for gawd's sake is this incredible version not being played on Sirius Radio's OZZY'S BONEYARD Channel???????????????????????????? Is somebody at Sirius actually deaf or something??? Geezus! Rotate it in!!!!!!! If not Ozzy than play the Peter Steel version!!!!!! A well-edited mash-up with both vocals would be incredible, also!!!! Are you seeing this Ozzy's recording engineers??????

🌈🎶🤘😈BadAss😈🤘🎶😎

Guitars are so good in this

Nothing beats the CVB version.

What these folks, absolutely awesome...the deal is Pete's gone....🙏😭.Ozzy ain't.🙏

No comments again?

What about 3:10, Type O fans?

Love this thing. But the mix grinds my gears... There's no "oomph" to it...

if you pla this at 1.25, it sounds like it has the same rhythm of the original song

Huh? Sick fick

This sounds like it being played at .75 speed

Honestly this cover still fuckin kicks. Great match up of Ozzy and Type O. They should have been so much bigger....

I like the version with Peter's vocals much better

Shit, I had this cd. Fuck , this brings back some fucked up memories.

HELLLO

Never knew this existed… God it ..should’ve been so much better…

lyrics: uh ah uh ah uh ah uh ah

Howard looks like the You Spin Me Right Round era lead singer of Dead or Alive.

Existe una version donde ozzy no canta y en lugar de el peter steel canta; y aunque el audio de ese track no es de alta calidad suena mucho mejor que este..... en conclusión, si este track fuera de type o negative sonaria mucho mejor....

not half as good as the version with peter steele on vocals

Anyone else here because of the Road Warriors Tribute Video?

FAR superior & relevant to the original, IMHO.

Lyrics: Oh Ah Oh Ah When I look up to the sky I see your eyes in a funny kind of yellow I rush to bed I soak my head I see your face underneath my pillow I wake next morning tossed and yawning I see your face come peeping through my window Oh no Oh Ah Oh Ah Pictures of matchstick men and you Images of matchstick men and you All I ever see is them and...you Oh Ah Oh Ah Windows echo your reflection When I look in their direction Gone Yeah they're gone When will this haunting stop Your face just won't leave me alone Oh no Pictures of matchstick men and you Images of matchstick men and you All I ever see is them and you Oh you're in the sky You're with this guy You make men cry, you lie Pictures of matchstick men (x6) I can see those matchstick men (x6)

Sorry Ozzy, but Peter was a god...

At the end if you listen closely, you can hear backwards vocals. I ran it through a Reverse filter in Audacity and here's what I heard (just repeating): "You (in/win) (the sky/this guy), You (in/win) (the sky/this guy), You make men cry, you lie."

Can someone please change this to peters vocals

Wtf

HOW CABN IS BE SOW

Crappy version Ozzy. You can’t beat the original.

Howard stern totally sucks... but type-0 and ozzy are the tits

Sorry Ozzy its but its too slow. Very depressing!!!!

Don't like it compared to the original

This version is horrible compared to Type O…

Sometimes when an artist/s do a cover it comes out great. Think about Joe Cocker's "with a little help from my friends" or Aerosmithh doing Yardbrds "Train kept a rollin" and there are other times when it comes out as being butchered...Ozzy? TypeO ......put down the knives please youve butchered it....deary me what a mess youve made
