EXCLUSIVE: Kelly Osbourne Found an UNRELEASED Ozzy Track on His Desk — But What She Heard Left Her Completely Stunned
It started as an ordinary afternoon at the Osbourne family home — Kelly Osbourne dropping by to check in on her father, legendary rocker Ozzy Osbourne. But a casual tidy-up of his desk turned into the discovery of a lifetime.
Tucked beneath a pile of handwritten lyric sheets and old fan letters was a dusty black USB drive. “I thought it was just some old files or maybe demos we’d all heard before,” Kelly told the Daily Mail. “But when I plugged it in… I froze.”
On the drive was a single audio file, untitled, unlabelled. The moment she hit play, she realised she was listening to something no one outside of Ozzy’s head had ever heard — a fully recorded, unreleased song.
But here’s the twist: it wasn’t the screaming, bat-biting heavy metal track you’d expect from the Prince of Darkness. Instead, it was a slow, haunting ballad, stripped back to just Ozzy’s gravelly voice and a soft acoustic guitar. “It was unlike anything he’s ever released,” Kelly said. “It sounded… vulnerable.”
As the song built to its final verse, Kelly’s shock deepened. The lyrics shifted from universal themes of love and loss to something intensely personal — a direct message to her. “He sang about watching me grow up, about his mistakes, about how proud he was,” she revealed. “It was like he was talking straight to me through the music.”
Kelly admitted she broke down in tears before the track had even finished. “I called Mum straight away and said, ‘You need to hear this. Now.’” Sharon Osbourne, according to Kelly, was equally stunned. “She said it was the most honest she’s ever heard him be in a song.”
The family is now debating what to do with the track. While Kelly believes it should be released so fans can hear this rare side of Ozzy, she’s also fiercely protective of it. “It feels like our little secret,” she said. “Like Dad left a piece of himself behind just for us.”
Whether it ever sees the light of day or remains a treasured family keepsake, one thing is clear: Ozzy’s final unreleased track isn’t just music — it’s a love letter hidden in plain sight
