Ozzy Osbourne Debuts Five Songs On The Charts As Fans Mourn His Passing

Ozzy Osbourne Debuts Five Songs On The Charts As Fans Mourn His Passing

Forbes3 days ago
In the days following his shocking passing, Ozzy Osbourne's catalog experienced huge gains in both sales and streams. Such a surge is not unusual for a beloved musician just after death, and the increase is reflected on charts all around the globe. At the moment, in the United Kingdom — Osbourne's home turf — the grief seems to be especially strong. While a number of his tracks returned to several tallies, perhaps the most surprising move on the rankings right now is the sheer number of debuts he manages posthumously.
Five Brand New Hits for Ozzy Osbourne
Of the seven hits Osbourne currently has on the charts in the U.K., five are brand new arrivals – at least on some lists. A handful debut across every tally on which they appear, while others land on specific rankings for the first time and return to others.
"Crazy Train" and "No More Tears" debut on three charts apiece. "Crazy Train" also manages to reappear on the Official Rock & Metal Singles chart, where it breaks back in at No. 3, a new all-time peak for the classic.
Amazingly, "Crazy Train" is the only one of Osbourne's solo tunes to appear on the Official Singles chart, the 100-space ranking of the most consumed cuts throughout the country. On that roster, one of his most celebrated releases opens at No. 56.
"Mama, I'm Coming Home" and "Mr. Crowley" Debut
"Dreamer / Gets Me Through" is brand new to both the Official Singles Sales and Official Singles Downloads charts, where the single entity enters just below the top 20.
Meanwhile, "Mama, I'm Coming Home" and "Mr. Crowley" debut on one list apiece, though they reach different rankings. "Mama, I'm Coming Home" begins its time on the Official Rock & Metal Singles tally at No. 16, while "Mr. Crowley" narrowly breaks onto the Official Singles Downloads chart, entering at No. 97.
"Mama, I'm Coming Home" Reaches Several New Peaks
While "Mr. Crowley" only appears on that downloads chart, "Mama, I'm Coming Home" becomes a top 10 bestseller on both the Official Singles Sales and Official Singles Downloads rankings as well, breaking back in at No. 6 on both at the same time. That's a never-before-seen peak for the classic on those two tallies.

Lingerie Fighting Championships Up-lists to OTCID Following Successful UK Events

LAS VEGAS, Aug. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lingerie Fighting Championships, Inc. ('LFC') (OTC Pink:BOTY) announced today that they have up-listed to the newly created OTCID market. In order to do so they had to meet all criteria including be fully SEC reporting, be in good standing with state and federal regulators, retain a recognized transfer agent and file a Company Verified Profile and Management Certification with the OTC. 'It was a lengthy process,' CEO Shaun Donnelly admits, 'but ultimately I thought it was worth the time to show our shareholders we're committed to transparency.' Last month, LFC did their first ever events in the UK and fans are still buzzing about them. LFC43: Sindependence Day 2 went down in London on the 4th of July at the historic Stanley Arts building. The sweat had barely dried on the canvas when the league was back in action just two nights later at the Vale Arena in Cardiff, Wales for LFC44: Underground Knockouts. 'Getting to do events in London and Cardiff was absolutely amazing,' Donnelly says. 'For many of our fighters it was a lifelong dream come true.' LFC43 in London was carried on live PPV in both the UK and the US and has already earned more money than any previous LFC event. 'I think the Team USA vs Team UK format really appealed to people,' Donnelly says. 'Even new fans who might not know any of our fighters had an instant cheering interest based on their nationality.' If you missed the live feed, you can still see the LFC43 replay on ToroTV and on LFC's site at (where LFC44 will debut on August 15). When asked if the league would ever consider returning to the UK, Donnelly gave a very enthusiastic affirmation, adding there are other countries he'd like to hold events as well.

Why Marylebone Is London's Most Underrated Neighborhood To Visit

Marylebone district, London, England, UK getty Although it is in central London, near all the main attractions, Marylebone Village is a far cry from the other hectic shopping areas nearby. And with a neighborhood feel, the area is more than just your typical shopping area, with loads of independent shops, bars, cafes and restaurants. Located just minutes from the hustle and bustle of Oxford Street, the area offers an array of shopping, eating and cultural experiences in a picturesque setting, surrounded by period architecture and attractive green spaces. One of London's best art museums is in the area and well worth a visit. The Wallace Collection, on Manchester Square, bequeathed to the British nation in 1897, houses masterpieces from the 14th to the 19th centuries by artists including Titian, Velázquez, Rubens and Fragonard. A guest room at The Zetter Marylebone, London Darren Chung The Zetter Marylebone is a delightful 4-star boutique hotel, in a row of attractive Georgian townhouses, tucked away on a discreet side street, just minutes away from Oxford Street. When stepping inside the book and antique filled parlor, you'll immediately feel you're in a sumptuous home rather than a hotel. The decor is cozy and inviting and while the service is attentive, there's no formal check-in desk, contributing to a laid-back vibe. The property has a whimsical feel with 24 individually designed rooms decorated with antique furniture, floral curtains and fun curios inspired by London's quirky Sir John Soane's museum. If you want to stay somewhere with a typical British Victorian ambiance but with all the modern conveniences like Wi-Fi and decent showers, the Zetter Marylebone is ideal. The guest rooms also feature flatscreen televisions, Marshall or Sonos speakers, tea-and coffee making facilities, a minibar and free bottled water. The Parlor Lounge at the Zetter, Marylebone Andreas von Einsiedel The hotel's activities center around the Parlor, the hotel's lounge, a comfortable space where guests can enjoy breakfast, afternoon tea, drinks and small plates. The cocktail menu has the classics along with some experimental options like Absinthe Colada and the very tasty Green Sorrel Sour. The Parlor at Zetter Marylebone is also the perfect setting for afternoon tea with finger sandwiches, cakes, vanilla and lavender scones and a great selection of loose-leaf teas. A full vegan afternoon tea menu is also available. Rates at The Zetter Marylebone start from £400 per night. Studio suite at Holmes Hotel, Marylebone, London Ben Carpenter Photography Holmes Hotel, a 4-star on Baker Street, is made up of four Georgian townhouses with 118 hotel rooms that range from cozy doubles to luxurious, 50 square meter duplex loft suites. The rooms and suites are individually styled, blending original Georgian features with rich textures and bespoke furniture. Other welcoming aspects are the plush Egyptian cotton bedding smart TVs with Chromecast and a gym. The Loft Suites are like spacious London apartments, while the heritage deluxe rooms offer attractive period details. Sherlock Holmes plaque outside of museum at Baker Street 221b getty The hotel is inspired by Baker Street's most famous resident – Sherlock Holmes and there are quick mysteries to solve on each floor as well as vintage curiosities, hidden nooks and velvet reading chairs. And for a more extensive dive into the life of the Victorian detective, The Sherlock Holmes Museum at 221b Baker street (the address of Conan Doyle's fictional sleuth) is a five minute stroll from the hotel. The bar and restaurant at Holmes Hotel Ben Carpenter Photography For all-day dining, Kitchen at Holmes, an expansive all day bar and restaurant is open to both hotel guests and non residents. Mediterranean-inspired dishes are offered by Head Chef Stefano Motta (the lobster spaghetti is excellent). The restaurant spills out onto a buzzy outdoor terrace on Baker street. A double room at Holmes Hotel starts from £250. Where to Eat and Drink Cafe Murano, Marylebone, London John Carey Chef Angela Hartnett's eagerly anticipated Cafe Murano Marylebone opened last week on 26 July and judging from the busy, buzzy atmosphere, it's destined to be one of the most popular restaurants in the area. Like her Cafe Murano in Bermondsey and Covent Garden, the Marylebone location is a more casual restaurant than her Michelin-starred Murano, in Mayfair, originally co-owned with Gordon Ramsay. And, unique to this location, the restaurant has a breakfast menu too, with dishes like grilled sweet peaches with yoghurt and smoked trout crostini. Drawing inspiration from the chef's southern Italian heritage, the dinner menu features traditional cicchetti , primi , secondi and dolce , with hand-rolled pasta, generous plates to share and regularly changing specials. New and exclusive to Marylebone is half chicken Salmoriglio, roasted to perfection in a zesty sauce of lemon, garlic and fresh herbs. The second new dish is the extremely moreish r igatoni al ragù bianco, a white bolognese-style pasta from Tuscany. Other standout dishes are lamb and pea arancini and braised octopus with potatoes and aioli. Opso from Chef Nikos Roussos offers a new approach to modern Greek food. Yes, you'll find a Souvlaki kebab with Greek yoghurt and classic Greek salad but also on the current menu is lightly cured sea bass in smoked aubergine broth and lamb shank with fresh black truffles. And across the road is Chef Roussos's Kima an equally delightful seafood restaurant that embraces a 'fin to gill' philosophy meaning 'use-all, waste-not' with dishes using the entire fish from head to tail. Caldesi, founded in 2002 by Chef and Restaurateur Giancarlo Caldesi and his wife Katie, is rightly loved for its authentic Italian regional cuisine. Try the spaghetti vongole or the seabass ravioli, both house favorites. Fischer's offers a classic Viennese menu of schnitzel, sausages and strudel, from early morning breakfast and afternoon coffee and cake, to a late-night dinner. Once you've eaten a sausage roll at Ginger Pig on Moxon Street, all others will pale in comparison. With an extensive deli, this is a great place for a hot takeaway roast lunch. Each night the shop hosts butchery classes, where you can learn the tricks of the trade. La Fromagerie, next door to Ginger Pig, has been one of London's most popular cheese and wine bars since opening in 2002. The shop features a walk-in Cheese room where you'll see cheese maturing and dedicated eating areas to enjoy cheese, wine and product. Where to Shop Daunt Books storefront getty Marylebone High street is the main shopping street but don't miss Chiltern Street for its eclectic range of menswear shops. Founded in 1990, Daunt Books remains one of the few independent booksellers in the UK. Housed in a graceful Edwardian building with long oak galleries and graceful skylights, Daunt Books on Marylebone High Street is one of London's most beautiful bookshops. Independent boutique KJ's Laundry, on Marylebone Lane, sells interesting and highly wearable brands from all over the world. From covetable womenswear, handbags, jewellery and shoes to lingerie and beauty products, you'll find an ever-changing repertoire of new finds made by saavy owners Jane Ellis and Kate Allis. Established in 1997 in Wales, Toast began with nightwear and loungewear and today's collections include simple, modern and functional pieces intended to last. The Marylebone boutique has a great range of clothing, homeware and accessories, produced in collaboration with artisans, weavers and mills from across the globe. The London outpost of Belgian ' haute chocolatier ' Pierre Marcolini can be described as a ' maison ' that, like a high fashion house, releases seasonal 'collections.' This is no ordinary chocolate producer. Pioneer of the 'bean to bar' movement, Pierre Marcolini has created his own chocolate from cocoa beans in house since 2001 and you can taste the difference. Agnès b, founded by French fashion designer Agnès Troublé, combines art and fashion in this light and open space on Marylebone High Street. Since 1989, Cologne & Cotton has sold gorgeous bed linen, bath products and soaps, table linen and eau de cologne.

Ozzy Osbourne Receives Rocking Send Off With Public Funeral Procession in Birmingham

Birmingham, England said goodbye to its most beloved son on Wednesday (July 30) as Ozzy Osbourne's funeral procession passed through the Midlands city. The Black Sabbath singer died last week (July 22) at age 76, just weeks after his final live performance at the all-star charity concert Back to the Beginning. Osbourne was raised in the Aston area of the city and the metal icons — made up of guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler and drummer Bill Ward — formed in Birmingham in 1968. The group played their first live show in the city at The Crown, dubbed the 'birthplace of heavy metal', on the corner of Station Street and Hill Street. Osbourne and Black Sabbath's final performance earlier in July took place at soccer team Aston Villa F.C.'s home stadium Villa Park.

A purple floral tribute reading 'Ozzy' adorned his coffin and a purple flower crucifix sat atop the hearse. The cortège traveled down Broad Street and passed over the Black Sabbath Bridge where a number of fans have left flowers and tributes to the late singer; the bridge was first opened in 2019. His wife Sharon and their three children Aimeé, Kelly and Jack, alongside other family members stopped to view tributes on the Black Sabbath Bridge and laid flowers of their own. A visibly emotional Sharon threw up a peace symbol to the crowd to thank the fans who attended, many of whom shouted 'Sharon, we love you!' Ozzy's cortège was led by local group Bostin' Brass, who performed a number of jazzy instrumental Black Sabbath and solo classics, including 'Iron Man' and 'Crazy Train,' as the hearse made its way down Broad Street, with fans providing spontaneous vocals. Speaking in 2011, Ozzy said that he wanted his funeral to be 'a celebration, not a mope-fest,' so fans who attended applauded the hearse as it made its way down the street, and chanted 'Ozzy, Ozzy, Ozzy!' in celebration. He will later be laid to rest in a private ceremony in the city. The procession was live streamed so fans from across the globe could witness the event, and the cortège was paid for by Osbourne's family. Lord Mayor of Birmingham Zafar Iqbal thanked the family for their contribution to the event, and told the BBC that '[Ozzy] put Birmingham on the map. He put Aston on the map.' On July 5, Ozzy performed for the last time at an all-star concert that reportedly raised over $190 million for charities, including local causes such as Birmingham Children's Hospital, and Acorns Children's Hospice. He performed nine songs at the event: five from his solo career, and an additional four with the original Black Sabbath band members – the first time they'd been on stage together since 2005. Following his passing, Black Sabbath and his solo material has surged on streaming and on the Billboard charts. 'Crazy Train' from his 1980 album Blizzard of Ozz recently hit the Hot 100 for the first time, landing at No. 46.
