A Sober Ozzy Is A Happy Ozzy

(hennemusic) Ozzy Osbourne sat down for an extended interview with his son, Jack, in the first of a three-part series for Noisey entitled Back & Forth. The Black Sabbath frontman shares his thoughts on health, drugs, and how kids don't know what "jamming" is.

Asked what advice he would give to his 21-year-old self, Ozzy replied: "Don't do drugs. [But I would tell a 30-year old Ozzy] take more drugs. [Laughs]"

"I did what I did when I was 21 and I did what I did when I was 30. But now, I feel better today than I've done in a long time. I'm 66," says Ozzy. "I work out, I exercise a lot, I go for regular physicals. Call me a hypochondriac, and I don't care. I don't smoke anymore, I don't do drugs anymore, I don't drink booze anymore. And I think that says a lot for why I'm [still] here. There's no mysterious hex from Satan�"

"To be honest, I really love being sober," he adds. "People who never smoked pot in their lives think, at my age, a joint wouldn't hurt. But it's the other way around. I've been doing dope and booze since I was about 14. To be clear-headed, and be okay with being okay."
