Rob Halford reflected on Ozzy Osbourne’s passing, expressing his grief and disbelief. After hearing the news, Halford says he “just curled up in a ball and bawled my eyes out for hours. I just couldn’t believe it. I still can’t believe it now.”

Halford emphasized the importance of celebrating and remembering Ozzy, along with other late music legends like Lemmy and Ronnie James Dio. Judas Priest, who was unable to take part in the ‘Back To The Beginning’ Black Sabbath tribute due to scheduling issues, paid tribute to Ozzy during a concert, performing the song “Giants In The Sky” in his honor.
