JAKARTA - Prince of Darkness, God of Heavy Metal, Ozzy Osbourne, left the mortal world in Birmingham, England at the age of 76 on Tuesday night, July 22, 2025. The announcements uploaded by his wife, Sharon, and spread across various social media platforms are clearly surprising to millions of fans.

Just 17 days after his farewell concert with Black Sabbath at Villa Park Stadium, Birmingham, Ozzy turned out to be completely separated from all. With family, relatives, friends, colleagues, and fans around the world.

Ozzy seems to have the final intuition of his life is near. He returned to England after more than two decades living in Los Angeles, United States. He then prepared a farewell concert, his last appearance on stage both as a solo singer and with his legendary band: Black Sabbath.

Luckily for the fans, because Black Sabbath personnel were still complete when they appeared at Villa Park on July 5. Bill Ward is still dashing behind the drum set, Bill Ward, who is the figure behind the Black Sabbath naming, is also still fierce to pull out bass, while Tony Iommi with his false right middle finger is also still fierce with heavy metal guitar riffs.

The Italian Iommi had a work accident while still a factory worker, so her left middle finger broke partially. He then continued with an artificial finger. That's what makes the guitar tones sound odd, because the fake fingers are unable to press the guitar strings fully.

Ozzy himself came in a not fully healthy condition. The Parkinson's syndrome he had since 2019, caused his body to weaken. He was no longer able to walk, so he had to sit down while performing nine songs at a farewell concert entitled Back to Begining, Back to Origin.

The concert, produced by group guitarist Rage Against The Machine, Tom Morello, features a lot of musicians. Old and young are united. Starting from Steven Tyler from Aerosmith who is 77 years old to Yungblud, a British pop punk singer who is 27 years old.

Ozzy and Black Sabbath's final concert is actually planned for 2023. However, due to poor health, the Prince of Darkness is prohibited by his doctor for many activities. Until finally he was allowed to go home and hold a concert in his hometown, Birmingham.

Ozzy is reportedly practicing very hard for Back to Beginning concerts. He desperately trains physically which is staining because he is lying sick for a long time. Every day he has vocal lessons so that his voice is quite excellent to enjoy.

Ozzy fought his pain for a concert that was finally successful. Attended by 45 thousand viewers, broadcast live streaming worldwide, and earned 140 million pounds sterling, some of which were donated for treatment and prevention of Parkinson's.

"I don't know what to say. I've been lying around for six years. You don't know how I feel thanks from the bottom of my heart. You are all really special. Let's go crazy, come on! said Ozzy at the concert opening.

In an interview with RadioX ahead of the Back to Beginning concert, Ozzy said this:

"This is my last encore. I can't possibly do my last show elsewhere. I have to go back to the start. Here, every Saturday when there is a football game, I go out with friends. Standing outside the stadium to keep parking, to get a little money from keeping the cars," Ozzy said remembering his childhood as an Aston Villa club fan.

Ozzy Osbourne has completely returned. Back to its original origin, back to its hometown, back to its childhood, and back to His creator in a happy atmosphere.
