I would not want to write something about something I do not think about

The '80s were the worst period. You had these horrible pop bands growing their hair and calling themselves metal.

I've been perfectly happily married for 25 years, and have a nice life. Inane things don't interest me.

I'd sort of dabbled in Black Magic, not practicing it, but I was interested in it. All these horrible things kept happening to me - a lot of my aunts and uncles started dying and I was seeing all these bloody things visiting me during the night.

To me, Sabbath was always just a really heavy blues band. That s all we were. We just took those blues roots and made them heavier.

Ozzy wanted to get us back together. It's been 20 years. We did a couple of songs during his farewell in 1992 and that got the ball rolling.
