It’s worth pondering if Black Sabbath would have returned the favour had the shoe been on the other foot (though it’s actually quite easy to imagine Ozzy having a go at Fix You) but, in this cosmic reality at least, it seems that even Coldplay love Ozzy Osbourne.
Taking to the stage in Nashville last night, just hours after the news of Osbourne’s death, the band’s frontman, Chris Martin, told the audience: "We'd like to dedicate this whole show to the incredible genius talent, and characterful gift to the world who was Ozzy Osbourne. We send our love to his family.”
