Sorry for your loss , I'm 49 lost my dad in 2008 and I turned him on to Lita and Ozzy they ruled the 80 's your dad must have been awesome he grew up in the same era as me .Hang in there
When my wife and I would hear this on sirus radio we would sing the parts to one another. It was always a favorite of ours. She died this past Christmas at 45. I listen to it now with a mix of happiness of the memories and sadness because there is nobody to sing her part anymore.

I had a brother who died of cancer when I was 9. This was his favourite song. the only real memories I have of him are of him in pain...but I do remember some other moments..like him singing this song . Rock runs in our blood.and art as well..

I'm turning 22 an my car was just towed away I have less then 5$ too my name an a baby on the way life's been hitting hard lately an I know I'm still young. I'm barely going too start a new job I hope too get my life back on track this song helps me get thru some pain. I hope everyone feeling down or struggling gets through it 🙏💚 stay motivated don't let this world take over you. You can do it
Lol I prefer today's music but same here with my dad he was stuck mentally in the 80s and he played this song for hrs and hrs in the car as loud as his expansive speakers could go as we were in back having to here it for about 3-5 hrs everyday for a while year (I was the oldest at 8) I'm 16 3/4 now but even 7 3/4 yrs later i have this song memorized
@@daviddonovan2710 Life ain't the same wihtout Headbanger's Ball, some bottles of suds and a few of your buds to kick back and rock out watching it with. Those were good times 🤘🏻
I’m gonna close my eyes and pretend we’re all back in the 80’s. Young and innocent. No political bullshit at every turn, no cell phones, no computer games. Just great music and great partying with friends. What the hell happened.
This has to be one of the most underrated songs of all time. I heard it in a record shop, loved it and bought it there and then, but I never heard it anywhere else except my cherished copy. That guitar... that solo.. fuck yes.
It'[s not underrated at all. It was a top 10 hit for Ozzy..The only one in his career at the time. I hate when people keep overusing the word underrated on this site. For fucks sake, noting Ozzy did was underrated
1988-ой год))))) И до сих пор круто. И до сих пор нет такого голоса и, наверное, уже и не будет. Мне 34, родился в феврале 1986-го, пишу этот коммент в ноябре 2020-го ))) Все добра от Минского полуночника.
Thank you Lita Ford,right now, I really have appreciated all your music right now and I have had some problems in my life right now and that one is my someone new to try now and pink is my favorite artist.0:59
They still do. It just doesn’t hit you the same because it’s not the people you like. There’s plenty beautiful songs out there they are just different tones than what you enjoy. Good day my man
Life today is easy (almost robotic) compared to old times, and without "real" suffering (or great joy, extremes ...) there is no character traits that "produce a dancing star", just a cold steel of todays high technology making all creative process faster but not nessesary better and the resoults are fast, quick music production, lyrics that where not expirienced by a singer in any form etc. So yes, today is hard to find a gem in music. But it is there. Yet there is a price to pay for that, so we have seen many of great talents go early to death ...
This was the song my dad wanted at his funeral. We played it for him a few weeks ago. I love my dad and miss him so much I feel lost but this song brings good memories
I attended the Lita Ford concert last month (Dec. 2016) in Jacksonville. Happy to report she still has a great voice and can play the axe like a demon. Did "Close My Eyes" with her second lead/ vocalist (who was very good) and it was great. If you get a chance to see her on the tour...do so.
I was an 80’s kid. When this song came out. Most loved it!!! Lita Ford is so beautiful and that Voice!!! She & Ozzie sound great together in this song 🎶 May they both be healthy & happy!!!! Thank you for all the badass Music 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I’m here 12/20! Yes, gods be with the Ozman. I saw Sabbath at Winterland in 1976. He had on a plaid tux and I had purple pyramid. A night I’ll forever remember!
Oh my god....my girlfriend at the time and I were in 9th grade when this song came out and we would sing this to each other. Jesus, to be 14 years old again.
20 February 2021, I sit and cry and goosebumps, like the first time! Where are my 80's? There are no words to express how beautiful this song! Greetings from Russia, guys!
This song is dedicated to my sister Tracy Pittman who passed July 12, 2021. She died of cervical cancer. Please have regular check-ups. She was terminal when she realized there was a problem.
@@ace1122tw not sure how you knew her but yes she did. She donated her body to science at MD Anderson while she was alive to help others who are diagnosed with cancer. She wanted to donate her organs and was distressed because she could not donate due to cancer. I told her you are donating, just not after death.
It's so hot how she gets into the feels and moves the way she does, and the fact that she plays guitar is a bonus for me cause I've been playing for so long and I know what it feels like to play with so much feeling, it's so cathartic, it's like therapy.
I play the guitar but not for very long (I’m glad I spent my graduation money on my first guitar) and i agree playing the guitar is insanely therapeutic in my most stressful moments and I don’t have my strat (i got a candy apple red fender stratocaster with a maple fingerboard for my birthday) I pretend to play it
I so love this one. It cuts to the core of feelings that many people in relationships feel like..been married 2 times. Divorced the same number of times. One thing I have learned. Everything happens for a reason. And it sometimes seems like the world is about to end. But more often than not, what you thought was bad, Was actually a blessing and the best thing for us 😢😮😊❤
Данная эмоция не имеет национальности,языка,пола...она есть достояние человечества,понятна каждому и забвению не подлежит..Господи,спасибо тебе за отдельных гениев, что не дают нам забыть,что мы-люди!.....
I saw Lita Ford (with Yngwie Malmsteen) back in 1988. I won tickets from the local radio station while a student at University of Illinois and won the grand prize of two back stage passes where we got to meet Lita prior to the concert. Lita was very nice to a couple of college guys and made sure we had whatever we wanted from their spread of food & drinks. I know she was never a mega star, but she could still have big-timed us and didn't.
I'm so glad that Jack got to do a road trip with his father.it really made up alot of father and son moments. Ozzy your truly a very gifted man. And have a wonderful family ! God truly blessed you. And thank you for all your brilliant music !
Being 25 and listening to this kind of music makes me wish I could have been born for 96, this type of music is the best and something about Ozzy's voice just always gives me cold chills.
Growing up i had no appreciation for music like this. I was a young and dumb hip hop fan, im now 27 with 2 children of my own and have only recently developed a love for Rock N Roll and the classics. Believe me when I say im kicking myself in the ass HARD for missing out on so many hits for all these years.
I knew I was gonna get sad listening to this song but when i read some.of the comments it really made me tear up. I love how music brings people together and reminds us all of the same thing, loved ones.
This was my parents wedding song. And their 20th wedding anniversary is coming in about 2 years. I hope to be able to learn this on guitar by then and play it for them.
@@-blythe2986 That's the point i am making. The fun of the 80s cancelled out my public school experiences. Even back then they were run by left wing tyrants.
Lita me for it does not pay, no pay, just I want to show you that we used to listen to, and it was excellent, Lita Ford is a classic. when I was growing up, the litas was everything to me. Now it is litas Classic, please respect my classics. I live in Russia and still for me Lita Ford is a classic and the best singer of the world. very beautiful girl and very talented
Lits Ford is such a badass boss woman! Who’d have thought being brought an odd house warming gift would result in such an iconic song that has stood the test of time?! It doesn’t matter how long it’s been since I last heard the song, the moment it starts playing, I’m covered in chills!!
Brilliant songwriting. Love how you learn more about what really happened with each verse and the same chorus actually evolves in its meaning. Oh yeah - and Lita and Ozzy ROCK it!
My father passed away this year at the age of 51 and he loved this song. I miss you pops. You can close your eyes forever now, no more pain and suffering... I love you dad
Sorry for your loss. I lost my father 26 years ago. I was 11.. it sucks man. Hope you're alright.

Nobody has a voice like ozzy, there is sorrow in his voice and it honestly makes me cry

It's why he's a legend.
Remember in the day when Ozzy bit the head of a bat off! Crazy train.fits him. Lol....😃

This song literally brings me back to the year it was released and I can picture everything like it was yesterday.
She had way too much talent to be considered another blond bombshell. It'll go down as the best duet of all time.

Same here. Great time...best music. Today? Just autotune 😷🤢
Check any book by Alvin Toffler- that´s what happened

Go figure.😘
still doing the same at 35 years
To rock and roll legends. When I hear this, it brings me back to My teenage Years. When M Tv Real rock and roll

This is still one powerful song sung by two of the best singers on the planet: Lita Ford and Ozzy Osbourne.
This was my parents wedding song. And their 20th wedding anniversary is coming in about 2 years. I hope to be able to learn this on guitar by then and play it for them.
Phoenix M that would mean so much to them if you could. Your mother will most likely be in tears & it would be a memorable event for both of them.
Yes learn it go on you tube and find it. You can do it!!! Set your mind and do it!!!
Badass song
Please do it. They will never forget it. I'm sure it will be a magical moment to all. Go for it!
That'd be awesome!
This song is so EPIC!!! Lita Ford was just a beautiful, talented badass and Ozzy, well, what can you say about the eternal Ozzy?!!!
Omg, I haven't heard this since highschool, my fav!!!
I’m 25 years old and here I am. I love old rock. They don’t make music like this anymore 🥺🙌🏽
I closed my eyes in 1988. I opened them & it is the new millennium . I should have kept them closed.....
I wish I could've closed my eyes in 1980 if only for a second, but I am cursed to this new age and new generation of music
lmfao!
I'm reading your comment and I feel tears in my eyes. Time flies very quickly....
You said it !
Lol i agree, being a 70s child and 80s teen - music has never been the same!
As soon as the song starts it throws me back to Jr high school when it was carefree times!
This song is one of the best rock collabs of all time! 💙
This video is Beauty and the Beast of good rock and roll.
Even though I got my ass kicked in JHS I still long for the 80s.
@@-blythe2986 That's the point i am making. The fun of the 80s cancelled out my public school experiences. Even back then they were run by left wing tyrants.
Якаж вона гарна😍який вокал!
ozzy...the most recognizable voice in the history of music...only a fool would disagree.
But if it were not for Randy Rhoads after he left Black Sabbath he would have been a nobody
This is just one of the bestest songs ever done in my ears!
Best Male and female duo in rock history. Amazing song. My top ten favorites of Ozzy's. Deep, deep. Song. ❤💔
God this takes me back....😢
Lita me for it does not pay, no pay, just I want to show you that we used to listen to, and it was excellent, Lita Ford is a classic. when I was growing up, the litas was everything to me. Now it is litas Classic, please respect my classics. I live in Russia and still for me Lita Ford is a classic and the best singer of the world. very beautiful girl and very talented
Yes, this should not be forgotten, classic masterpiece. A monster ballad. Trudy
I loved this song in high school. And Lita seriously helped me through puberty. If ya get what I'm saying.
I respect u! U have an exellent taste for music! But my favorite singer is joan jett, i love her music as hell, but i love lita too
Brings me back to the happiest and the sadist time in my life.
I'll take Lindsey Sterling...
I never heard of Lita Ford before but she is really good! And she is a perfect compliment for Ozzy.
+Linda Lawrence She was the lead guitarist in The Runaways with Joan Jett.
+steph abo cool! :)
+Linda Lawrence , One of the Runaways.
+Dimia Keyambella that and Lita is just plain sexy
Lits Ford is such a badass boss woman! Who’d have thought being brought an odd house warming gift would result in such an iconic song that has stood the test of time?! It doesn’t matter how long it’s been since I last heard the song, the moment it starts playing, I’m covered in chills!!
It just doesn't get any better than this .. does it!!... Ozzy! You're Marvelous! Talented! and A True Rock Star!
Brilliant songwriting. Love how you learn more about what really happened with each verse and the same chorus actually evolves in its meaning. Oh yeah - and Lita and Ozzy ROCK it!
Whoever doesn't like this song is crazy!!!! One of the all time 80's best hits
David Perry
Beavis and Butthead hated it. Lmao
Lyrics
Baby, I get so scared inside and I don't really understand
Is it love that's on my mind or is it fantasy?
Heaven is in the palm of my hand and it's waiting here for you
What am I supposed to do with a childhood tragedy?
If I close my eyes forever, will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever, will it all remain the same?
Sometimes it's hard to hold on, so hard to hold on to my dreams
It isn't always what it seems when you're face to face with me
You're like a dagger, and stick me in the heart
And taste the blood from my blade
And when we sleep, would you shelter me in your warm and darkend grave?
If I close my eyes forever, will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever, will it all remain the same?
Will you ever take me? No I just can't take the pain
Would you ever trust me? No I'll never feel the same
I know I've been so hard on you; I know I've told you lies
If I could have just one more wish, I'd wipe the cobwebs from my eyes
If I close my eyes forever, will it all remain unchanged?
If I close my eyes forever, will it all remain the same?
