Scott's Metal Track of the Day - Bark at the Moon by Ozzy Osbourne

Today's Metal Track is Bark at the Moon by Ozzy Osbourne. This classic is the title and opening track off of his 1983 album by the same name. The song is about a creature that attacked a town, was killed, and returned to life to attack the town again. However, the video portrays a scientist (Ozzy) who drinks a potion in his lab that causes him to turn into a werewolf. The album cover features Ozzy in this same werewolf costume.

This song was written by Jake E. Lee and Bob Daisley but Sharon Osbourne threaten to fire them from the band if they didn't sign over their rights to the song. So they did. One of the many 'not so cool' things Sharon has done over the years.
