Singer held a final show next to the band on July 5; just over two weeks later, he died at 76 years old
The profile of Black Sabbath On Instagram published a final tribute to Ozzy Osbourne. The singer left us on Tuesday, 22, at 76, after suffering for over half a decade with a series of health problems.
Brief but quite significant, the page released only a photo of Osbourne smiling during his farewell and group show, Back to The Beginning, England, last July 5. In the caption, two words: “Ozzy Forever” (in Portuguese: “Ozzy Forever”).
Over the course of just over an hour, the post raised more than 455 thousand likes. In addition, 15,600 comments were left by fans from around the world.

Ozzy Osbourne had a series of comings and goings from Black Sabbath. Left in 1977 to return the following year – and break once and for all in 1979. Then he participated in a show at Live Aidin 1985. The definitive return of Sabbath’s original formation took place in 1997 and lasted until 2006. After that, a final lap occurred in 2011, lasting until 2017 – not to mention, of course, the punctual farewell in 2025.
Ozzy Osbourne’s death
The cause of the death was not disclosed. However, it is known that the singer’s health had been weakened for years due to a number of health problems-including Parkinson, whose diagnosis was revealed to the public in 2020.
In a press release sent to the press, the artist’s family stated:
“It’s more sadly than words can express that we have to report that our dear Ozzy Osbourne passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded with love.”
Then he added:
“We ask everyone to respect our family’s privacy at this time.”
