People always ask me how come I'm still alive. If, as a child, I had been put against a wall with other children and asked to show which of them would live to see 2009, who would have five children, four grandchildren, houses in Buckinghamshire and California, I probably would not have chosen myself. Fuck two! And here, please, I’m ready for the first time in my own words to tell the story of my life. Every day was awesome. For thirty years I fueled myself with a deadly mixture of drugs and booze. Survived a collision with an airplane, lethal doses of drugs, and sexually transmitted diseases. I was accused of attempted murder. I myself almost lost my life when I hit a pothole with my ATV at a speed of three km/h. Not everything looked rosy. I've done a lot of stupid things in my life. I've always been attracted to the dark side, but I'm not the devil, I'm just Ozzy Osbourne - a guy from a working-class family in Aston who quit his factory job and went out into the world to have fun.
