Fans Revisit Iconic Ozzy Osbourne Cameo in Yungblud’s Music Video
Three years ago, two worlds of rock collided in a way no one saw coming. A young rebel shaking up modern punk, and a living legend who helped define heavy metal Yungblud and Ozzy Osbourne joined forces in a music video that’s once again capturing hearts and headlines online.
The video is for Yungblud’s 2022 single “The Funeral”, a track soaked in emotion, energy, and defiance. But what’s making people hit replay in 2025 isn’t just the music — it’s the unexpected, brilliant appearance of Ozzy Osbourne himself. Yes, that Ozzy — the Black Sabbath frontman, the godfather of heavy metal, the man who’s bitten heads off bats and still lived to tell the tale.
As the video begins, the tone is somber: a coffin, a crowd dressed in black, a dramatic farewell unfolding under a stormy sky. But blink, and you might miss them — Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne sitting front and center at the funeral, watching the whole thing unfold. With perfect deadpan timing, Ozzy leans over and says, “He’s a bit much, isn’t he?” while Yungblud starts wailing his heart out mid-eulogy.
It’s hilarious. It’s bold. It’s so perfectly Ozzy.
What makes the moment even more powerful is the sense of respect and connection between the artists. Yungblud, who’s built his career on challenging norms and amplifying the voices of misfits, has long said Ozzy is one of his biggest inspirations.
“Ozzy doesn’t follow the rules,” Yungblud said in an old interview. “He made his own. That’s exactly what I’m trying to do.”
That mutual admiration turned into this unforgettable cameo — and it wasn’t just a stunt. It felt like a genuine torch-passing, with Ozzy giving his nod of approval to the new face of raw, emotional rock.
The video ends just as it begins — with Ozzy’s voice. After all the chaos and catharsis, he turns to Sharon and delivers the perfect closing line: “Now that’s rock ’n’ roll.” Cue the fade-out, the grin, and the chills.
Fans old and new are now rediscovering the clip, sharing it on social media with one universal message: “Make sure you watch till the end.”
It’s funny, heartfelt, and just a little bit wild exactly what you’d expect from an Ozzy and Yungblud team-up. In a time when music can feel overproduced and disconnected, this moment stands out as real, raw, and weirdly beautiful.
Because sometimes, the loudest statement comes in the form of a smirk from a 70-something-year-old metal icon sitting in the front pew of your funeral.
