This audiobook includes an interview with Ozzy Osbourne from 2009.

People ask me how come I'm still alive, and I don't know what to say. When I was growing up, if you'd have put me up against a wall with the other kids from my street and asked me which one of us was gonna make it to the age of 60, with five kids and four grandkids and houses in Buckinghamshire and California, I wouldn't have put money on me, no f--king way. But here I am: ready to tell my story, in my own words, for the first time.

A lot of it ain't gonna be pretty. I've done some bad things in my time. But I ain't the devil. I'm just John Osbourne: a working-class kid from Aston, who quit his job in the factory and went looking for a good time.

    Well, Ozzy is Ozzy. You should expect anything but the ordinary.

    The book is so bluntly written, even for the die hard fans it is a surprise to learn new things about Ozzy.

    Cons: It felt like the end is kind of rushed, or it may be me not wanting to reach the end of the book...

    To think Ozzy Osbourne is still alive after reading about his journey is quite remarkable. An honest portrait of a man who found fame, lost it, remade himself and climbed to the top again fighting his demons along the way. Such an entertaining book with an honest and funny perspective. The prince of darkness is quite grateful of everything that came his way and presents a generous account filled with stories that will make you laugh out loud. A great read for anyone who ever wondered who is this guy on the crazy train.

    What an entertaining read! Who knew the man behind the legend is much more than the media portrayed him to be? A fascinating and entertaining memoir. So glad I know the real Ozzy now.

    Black Sabbath was part on my teenage years. It greatly influenced who I am and the fact that I wanted to be a rock & roll star, which alas never materialized. I was never at the right place at the right time. Oh, I played with many bands, but none of them had my fire, my determination to take the bull by the horns and give it a wild shake.

    Ozzy and I were born on the same day: Dec 3rd. Only the years were different. And boy! I wished I’d met him. What would have happened next could have made a difference in my life, but I wasn’t born at the right place at the right time.

    I expected the paperback to be more used, but it seems brand new without the new book smell. It shipped faster than expected. I am thoroughly enjoying this book. I wish I got this a long time ago and that I could give it more stars. Thank you!!

    Even when he’s speaking from the ninth circle of Hell he can put a smile on your face. So get on his crazy roundabout with him and enjoy the ride.

    Si estas buscando reseñas de este libro es porque te gusta el Heavy Metal.
    Por la edad que yo tengo conoci mas el trabajo de Ozzy que de Black Sabbath, cuando me sumergi en el mundo del Rock.
    Este libro esta lleno de anecdotas, unas ya muy conocidas y otras tantas que solo leyendo el libro (O teniendo un amigo Super Fan, podrias conocer)
    Ahora despues de leer i Am Ozzy puedo decirte que Disfruto mucho mas la musica de Black Sabbath, y que ese cariño especial que tenia por el principe de las tinieblas ahora es diferente, pues el libro te lleva de la mano por todo lo que recorrio para llegar a estar donde esta ahora.

    Personalmente cada que leia el libro me imaginaba al mismo ozzy platicandomelo, es una lectura muy liviana, muy bien llevada y muy MUY entretenida., de inicio a Fin

    este libro me arranco sonrisas y un par de lagrimas tambien.

    Whether you love him or hate him, you'll love this book! Ozzy's honesty throughout his life story is amazing. He doesn't sugarcoat his experiences or his mistakes and looks back on them in a way that will have you laughing your head off! The first 3/4 of the book is interesting and funny and provides background info that alot of fans may not know, but the last 1/4 of the book is heartfelt and touching. Hearing Ozzy speak about his struggle with drugs and alcohol and the love he has for his wife and children is beautiful. He gives hope to others who struggle with addiction without coming off as preachy and has the rare ability to laugh at himself. Love this book!

    Livro legal para conhecer sobre a vida do Izzy até o momento em que o livro foi escrito. O jeito em que está escrito parece que ele está contando uma história a você com as gírias do jeito que ele mesmo fala.
