Ozzy Osbourne - I Just Want You - Solo

This article is part 48 of 52 in the 2022 music project series.

I figured one more Ozzy solo was in order, even if I Just Want You isn't quite as iconic as Crazy Train. I have the book, and I wanted to try out some of the rotary speaker modulation effects on my POD Go.

Jim Vallance, best known for being the writing partner of Canadian heartthrob Bryan Adams, is credited as a writer on this song. Apparently Ozzy just wanted him… to help write this song.

Recording

Possibly the lowest quality video to date. Enjoy the random out-of-focus shots and artificially enhanced brightness. I definitely could not be bothered to shoot it again.
