“You think these f**king directors were making ‘War And Peace’,” Ozzy said. “They were only three-minute videos.
“I remember when I was making the video for ‘Mama, I’m Coming Home’. I went to this sky blue room and had to get a side of pork and walk across the room. I thought, ‘What the f**k does this mean? [This is] going to cost 900,000 dollars.’ I went and used the cameraman who did the NIRVANA video for ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’. He just did a video with me in the car. That cost about 10,000 dollars. I prefer the one I did because it was cheap and there was no elaborate f**king trickery. MTV played them both.
“Sometimes I would just go, ‘What are you f**king thinking?’ It’s only a music video. It didn’t warrant spending millions of dollars.”
The BLACK SABBATH singer’s “Memoirs Of A Madman” CD sold 4,200 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 90 on The Billboard 200 chart. The collection serves as a career-spanning audio release, featuring 17 of Ozzy‘s greatest hit singles compiled in one place for the first time in his career. Released on October 7 via Epic Records/Legacy Recordings, it is available in a single CD, two-LP set and two-LP picture disc set configurations.
