    When I was in the 11th Grade, 1978, we had to bring a song to English class that told a story and play it on the record player. I brought Stargazer. Everyone was dying before that song ever finished. In the days of crappy ass music like James Taylor and Minnie Riperton, I played this. I watched them squirm and wince for 8 minutes and 20 seconds. Loved every second of it. Failed 11th grade English. Rock on!

      Why did they not like it? Back in the day I did bring selected metal songs to English (as a second language) class and teachers have always been supportive and praised it. Stargazer would fit very well...

      @@AlessioSangalli it was a Prep School where everyone voluntarily wore khakis and izods. I wore Levi's big bells and colored Fruit of the Loom T-Shirts. I lived on the blue collar side of town. These people were followers. If you listen to Dio you are not a follower. You blaze your own trail. Even though life has been good to me I still find myself having to machete my way by myself. So be it. Rock on.

    High noon, oh I'd sell my soul for water
    Nine years worth of breakin' my back
    There's no sun in the shadow of the wizard
    See how he glides, why he's lighter than air?
    Oh, I see his face
    Where is your star?
    Is it far, is it far, is it far?
    When do we leave?
    I believe, yes, I believe
    In the heat and the rain
    With whips and chains
    To see him fly
    So many died
    We build a tower of stone
    With our flesh and bone
    Just to see him fly
    But don't know why
    Now where do we go?
    Hot wind, moving fast across the desert
    We feel that our time has arrived
    The world spins, while we put his dream together
    A tower of stone to take him straight to the sky
    Oh, I see his face
    Where is your star?
    Is it far, is it far, is it far?
    When do we leave?
    Hey, I believe, I believe
    In the heat and the rain
    With whips and chains
    Just to see him fly
    Too many died
    We build a tower of stone
    With our flesh and bone
    To see him fly
    But we don't know why
    Ooh, now where do we go
    All eyes see the figure of the wizard
    As he climbs to the top of the world
    No sound, as he falls instead of rising
    Time standing still, then there's blood on the sand
    Oh, I see his face
    Where was your star?
    Was it far, was it far?
    When did we leave?
    We believed, we believed, we believed
    In heat and rain
    With the whips and chains
    To see him fly
    So many died
    We built a tower of stone
    With our flesh and bone
    To see him fly
    But why
    In all the rain
    With all the chains
    Did so many die
    Just to see him fly
    Look at my flesh and bone
    Now, look, look, look, look
    Look at his tower of stone
    I see a rainbow rising
    Look there, on the horizon
    And I'm coming home, I'm coming home, I'm coming home
    Time is standing still
    He gave back my will
    Ooh ooh ooh ooh
    Going home
    I'm going home
    My eyes are bleeding
    And my heart is leaving here
    But it's not home
    But it's not home
    Ooh
    Take me back
    He gave back my will
    Ooh ooh ooh ooh
    Going home
    I'm going home
    My eyes are bleeding
    And my heart is leaving here
    But it's not home
    But it's not home

    Back to my home ooh, ooh, ooh

In my opinion, Ozzy's voice was perfect for his early work with Sabbath but I never liked his albums as a whole, however his voice was phenomenal in its own right and you are correct, I liked some of his solo albums better . On the other hand, I loved every track in heaven and hell as well as the mob rules. The overall quality of both albums was off the charts. To summarize, both were great vocalists in their own way and deserve respect but both were unique too. Ironic that Sharon introduced Dio to Iommi.
