It's OK Burch. We were all seven once. 😂 I would have drank the "grape juice" too.

RIP Randy Castillo 🤘 One of the best! Speaking of miracles, it's a miracle that this video hasn't been blocked yet! 😂🤣 😊

I saw him on tour for this album. This is still one of my favorite Ozzy albums. We were introduced to Zakk with this album and holy shit what a sound, every song is a banger IMO.

So funny comparing Zakk back then to today.

Ozzy still sounds the same, from early days to modern day; such a distinct voice spanning 50 yrs of metal

And it wasn't just Jimmy Swaggart, there have been SO SO many through the years

Swagger and Baker not only got exposed for the hidden Misdeeds and their sins behinds close doors. they became poster boys for Hypocrisy in the church. Jim & Tammy Fay Baker, Oral Roberts, Benny Hinn all capitalized on what is called Prosperity Gospel. A fake Doctrine that is plague with corruption in the church, greed, hypocrisy, sex scandals, and etc. it hurt real Christianity pretty badly due to the fact their blatant mis-use of funds and so on. Miracle man was one of many songs that came out in the late 80's and early 90's that threw cheap shots at those guys.

I saw this tour in Philly and Zakk Wylde did the greatest guitar solo I've ever seen easily and I've seen a lot of concerts

Rest in Paradise, Randy Castillo

Randy Castillo was such a great drummer and so fun to watch in concert! RIP

The production on this album was top notch, zakk in his prime was a beast

This one and Crazy Babies were all over MTV in 1989, shortly before the network placed actual music on the chopping block forever!

This whole album rips! If you want some crazy dreams fall asleep listening to it. Still have the cassette tape!!!

Big Ozzy fan! My first Ozzy concert was the Blizzard of Ozz tour in Binghamton NY, My fifth concert was one of his last, before the pandemic. Always loved this song. Zakk played at my last Ozzy concert, also in NY. He played his guitar solo for about 20 minutes walking through through audience. Thanks for jump starting my 60 year old heart with this reveal!

The song that blew my speakers back in the day. Never forget it.

A year Later Suicidal Tendencies released their song "send me your money" The lyrics are in neck of the woods of this song.

And I love Ozzie he doesn’t apologize for who he is. He lives his life he jams hard, discovers great guitarist, and he’ll go down as one of the greatest metal rock gods ever. But I definitely like that song and that album.

Probably my favorite Ozzy album. Zakk had a huge sound and the songs were great. Awesome riffs!

I saw this tour. It was Providence RI. Anthrax opened Friggin Awesome show.

Love him or hate him, one thing you can say about Ozzy is at least he’s not a hypocrite! Awesome reaction to an awesome song, I love it!!

7:46 ozzy holding the scared pig always kills me 🤣

I bought this record when it came out. I check on ebay for record values occasionally and this one has gone through the roof. Really good album.

Don’t normally watch your show but you had Ozzy and Zakk. And No Rest for the Wicked is a monster of a album

So glad ya'll are reacting to Ozzy, This song is great. I hope you both will react to "Ordinary Man" music video It's his good bye song. Ozzy compared himself to actor Vincent Price.It's a character he plays. When he wasn't acting in horror movie Vincent Price loved to cook

I bought this album on cassette and wore it out on a road trip from Virginia to New York. Good debut for Zakk. He had a lot to live up to when it came to being a guitarist for Ozzy.

Seen OZZY in concert live, this album too, Randy Castillo was he's drummer from NM RIP, awesome cool song 👍😎🤘🎤🥁🎸🎸

I've enjoyed all your reactions since subscribing, but two things stuck out in this reaction. Number 1 - Zakk Wylde, and number 2 - "It's not my fault!! 😁👍 You guys are the best!!

Hello guys, greetings from Guadalajara Jalisco Mexico! I honestly enjoy your videos since Burch really takes Alexis and the viewers to the actual context of the song. Blessings to you both especially Alexis on her child birth!❤

Speaking of Zakk Wylde you need to check out his version of Mississippi Queen it really showcases his guitar skills

Anthrax "startn up a posse" on Attack of the killer B's album. dissing tipper gore, classic. she should like it cause it's a metal country song.

R.I.P RANDY CASTILLO!!!! Why is it always the best? Randy, Eric Carr, Neil Peart!!

We have to keep in mind that OZZY wouldn’t have even DONE a “diss track” if Jimmy Swaggart hadn’t dissed OZZY FIRST!!!!! Swaggart ATTACKED Ozzy calling him a “Devil worshipper” and all that bull crap, so this was Ozzy’s response!!!! On the same album is a song about Charles Manson which is more of a commentary, the song “Bloodbath in Paradise” GREAT song!!! LOVE the “No Rest For the Wicked” CD!!!

Great song and great album. This was the first album Zakk Wylde did with ozzy back in ‘88 and I still love cranking this album up on a regular basis 👊🏼

When I was kid one of the churches that I attended the Pastor embezzled $150,000 from his small church.

Love it! Great reaction🍺

How soon is Alexis due? She looks like she must be pretty far along? Congrats to you for that. Okay that said? Yes. Definitely a diss track. Excellent choice. And definitely enjoyed your reaction to it. Thanks guys. (If you talked over the video a little bit more, or stopped it to comment? You might get fewer copyright issues. Just a thought.)

@Flickering Box Great song THX.

RIP RANDY CASTILLO

Probably one of my favorite Ozzy albums. Love this song. Makes me want to listen to send me your money by suicidal tendencies Great reaction 🤘

Such a mean riff👊🏽⚡️

Zakk was about the only one who could have stepped into Randy Rhodes' shoe. RIP Randy

The opening riff is taken from Randy Rhoads riff on the song Diary of a Madman and the beginning of the solo is taken from the beginning of John Norum's solo on Europe's The Final Countdown.

Awesome song! Zakk’s first appearance!

“You’re No Different” and “Rock N Roll Rebel” are two other great songs where Ozzy attacks his critics and defends himself. Very catchy songs!

"Liar" by Megadeth was also a metal diss track.

Always loved Ozzy and his no BS stance. How about Suicidal Tendencies, Send me your money, from the Lights, Camera, Revolution album? Bet she'll get a kick out of that one too.

Zakk plays like a f’ing madman on this whole album, but I love his playing on this track in particular. The riffs is just awesome and it has the signature Zakk rips throughout. Ozzie knew how to pick guitarists, that’s for sure. Ozzy in the 80’s 🤌

This was a great song and video.

GodSmack’s “Cry Like a Bitch” is a dis on Nikki Sixx even though they don’t name him.

Ozzy always has the BEST lead guitarists! Randy Rhodes (RIP), Jake E Lee, Zakk Wylde...

Dad, I think like you! you has to be my brother, hugs from Puerto Rico!

Funny Jimmy swagger, evangelist, Jerry Lee lewis original bad boy of rock and roll I always liked him better than elvis any day

when it first came out it was brought up that one ozzy's first jobs was in a slaughter house in englasnd. the whole pig thing was funny.

Jimmy and his son still have a show on religious TV to this day, Burch. I see him all the time on TV!!!!

There are at least 3 songs related to Swaggart getting busted: Ozzy's "Miracle Man", Iron Maiden's "Holy Smoke" and Cinderella's "Shelter Me".

I love Ozzy so much.

As a teenage Ozzy fan in Baton Rouge during the early 80s, Jimmy getting busted was the sweetest of treats. We used to ride around his Bible College on Bluebonnet blasting Miracle Man.

can't forget Godsmack's dis track 'Cryin Like a B*tch" aimed at Nikki Sixx

Shocked this is still up. No Rest For The Wicked is my favorite Ozzy album. By the way, the main reason Ozzy wanted to strike back at Jimmy Swaggert was because they accused him of the devil worship stuff and the "Suicide Solution" song lawsuit and all that. Also, the hypocrisy, but that was the source of the anger.

I would say Ozzy is a Man of God, it’s pretty apparent.

YES! KRANK IT!!

Awesome song awesome album. Along the same lines is Tv Crimes by Black Sabbath with RJD

Love your reaction videos. I grew up n the 70s and 80s and considered myself a metal head with al little hip-hop in there too. But as I got older, I broadened my listening to blues and county too. For a country music dis video, check out the song 'Kiss My Boots' by Brian Kelley. He was 1/2 of the group Florida Georgia Line. Speculation is the song is directed toward the other half of FGL, Tyler Hubbard.

That's Geezer Butler on the video, but Bob Daisley actually playing bass on the song. Live and learn...

Ozzys best overall line up with Geezer on bass, Randy Castillo on skins and Zakk on guitar.

Ozzy forever 👍🤟🤟

Yes, don't disrespect Ozzy, otherwise Sharon will come after you and you'll have eggs thrown at you and your amp unplugged a few times. Bruce Dickinson found that out. I hope Sharon doesn't shut this down

Thank you Jimmy!

Alter boys represent!!! I was also a bad alter boy…😂😂😂😂

Lynyrd Skynyrd's Sweet Home Alabama is the first dis song that I heard about

There’s a diss line in Sweet Home Alabama toward Neil Young when he put down the south in a song he wrote. “Well I hope Neil young will remember, a southern man don’t need him around anyhow”. And yes. Bakker and Swaggart are still preaching. If still alive.

Great reaction!! I distinctly remember when this came out, and the whole televangelist 'scandals' of the time (money embezzlement, prostitution, etc.)! Jimmy Swaggart (and others) were on a crusade to vilify Ozzy (and metal music in general - see the PMRC hearings for more on that) on the sin and evil they were projecting on our youth! Oh, how the mighty fell. What's the adage 'let ye without sin cast the first stone'? These guys had absolutely no business disparaging Ozzy given the 'sinful' lives they were leading! I'm by no means saying Ozzy is a saint (let's face it, the guy has lead a life less than holy), but I don't recall him putting others down, nor stealing, nor fraud, etc... Those evangelists needed to practice what they preached! Great song - and great introduction to Zakk Wylde on guitar. That guy could shred! Cheers.

For another Ozzy "diss" song, try "The Writ" from Black Sabbath, one of the very few songs Ozzy wrote the lyrics for. That one is really brutal.

You know a song I never see anyone react to is killer of giants by Ozzy.

Don't forget Ozzy played the part of an anti metal preacher in the movie "Trick or Treat"!

Ozzy played a preacher in the movie Trick or Treat.

I had to watch this before they block it

Slaughter has a dis song "Burnin' Bridges" aimed at Vinnie Vincent.

Make me laugh by Anthrax is about Tammy Fay Baker. Another great diss track.

No Rest for the Wicked if it would have been release in 2024 that album cover would have got a lot of conversary.

Well…. I am a Christian and I think Ozzy had every right. What did we all expect? I never respected those TV preachers. Anyway, I agree that Zakk’s sound was pretty fresh on this album. I play guitar and this album and Speak of the Devil really inspired me to play and work on a thick sound.

This album and Zakk Wylde blew my mind when it was releases. Jake E Lee and Zakk Wylde are still my favourite guitar players to this day

I wish Ozzy could be forever young. It's sad to see him in the bad shape he is now 😔

Speaking of diss tracks, y'all should do the greatest rock diss track, G n R's Get in the Ring!!!!

Definitely a diss track. I'm not sure if they all qualify, but metal had its share of songs taking aim at Tipper Gore and the PMRC if no one else. I'm sure you know "Ode to Tipper" by Warrant (ok not a song so much as a collage of profanity). "Startin' up a Posse" by Anthrax "Goodbye Freedom, Hello Mom" by Scatterbrain "Mother" by Danzig "Freedom" by Alice Cooper "Hook in Mouth" by Megadeth "Parental Guidance" by Judas Priest And I'm sure there were more.

In this River, Zakk Wylde

The latter half of my teen years were spent in the belt buckle of the Bible belt. East Texas. I hated all the hypocrisy in the church and especially all the TV evangelists. Sick. It kept me pretty much out of the church until my late thirties. Then I matured to the point where I finally understood I shouldn't judge the whole church based on the actions of some people. However, since about 2013 or 2014 I once again stopped attending church. This time it was because way too many were preaching politics and the people in the church were buying into it. That's when. I said, "enough is enough." I don't see ever going back unless I find a church where everyone isn't going crazy for that. I went to church for spiritual guidance, not to hear politics. That's what cable news is for.

The difference was that Ozzy never claimed to be , "Holier than thou" !

I get the religion' thing, Catholic school till my high school days then became public. My only interest was Zakk, and the "who the heck is this" aspect. More so on some other tracks. But that thick-sounding, crazy low-string harmonics, cool solos (more so on other tracks.) But Miracle Man is a wild riff to play even. Pick up that acoustic in the back and just feel out the riff, cool riff.

Jimmy Swaggert is Jerry Lee Lewis and Mickey Gilley's cousin. Bob Daisley wrote the lyrics.

at the end of the 80s, early 90, everyone was making fun of the TV evangelists... not just Ozzy, ST also had a song called Send Me Your Money and that made a lot of news also, but it is not have as much airplay as Ozzy because of their band name. Still a great song tho

3:26. ICP diss slim Anus is epic

If you want to call Ozzy out, there is one song he can be called out on..."Suicide Solution". He's stating alcohol is a death sentence, all from a man who bathed in it.

That's not calling him out. That's him, from his own experience, calling drinking alcohol abuse, for what it is, along with people that take part in it, including himself. "The reaper is you and the reaper is me."
