Top Ten Black Sabbath Songs (with Ozzy)


It's been awhile since I have done a Top Ten List, so it's about time I drop one. Black Sabbath was a very big part of my youth. In high school I would stay up really, really late and listen to Sabbath in the dark - I remember listening intensely to Planet Caravan on repeat, with only the blue/green glow of my stereo light humming in the background.

Alright, without further ado, here is my Top Ten Black Sabbath Songs (with Ozzy).

10. Children of the Grave

09. It’s Alright

08. Hand of Doom

07. Wasp/Behind the Wall of Sleep/Basically/NIB (this is all one song)

06. Black Sabbath

05. Sweet Leaf

04. Planet Caravan

03. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

02. Wheels of Confusion/The Straightener (again, one song)

01. Hole In The Sky


On a side note: I absolutely love it when bands use their own name in songs. You notice there are two songs above that do this. The Clash were the absolute best at this – We Are The Clash, This Is Radio Clash, Clash City Rockers, What’s My Name? – so awesome.
