Andrew Watt Reveals There Are Unreleased Ozzy Osbourne Songs: “We Made [Them] for a Specific Reason”

Andrew Watt, who produced the last two Ozzy Osbourne albums before the metal icon’s passing, has revealed that there are additional Ozzy songs that have not yet been released.

The two reviewed the material just one day before the Ozzy’s “Back to the Beginning” show in July 2025, with his death following just a couple of weeks later.

Watt said told Rolling Stone (watch below), “There are some songs that we made for a specific reason. And, yeah, that’s all I can say. They’re hard for me to listen to.”

When asked if there were plans to release the songs, Watt replied, “Kind of,” before saying:

“The night before the concert, I actually went in Birmingham with Sharon and a couple of people to go get a curry, and I was texting with Ozzy. He was in his hotel room, and he was, like, ‘Come to the hotel, come to the hotel. I was sitting with Sharon and we were both like, ‘He has a big day tomorrow. Maybe I shouldn’t go, ‘cause he’ll get excited and everything.’ But he was, like, ‘No, you’re coming to the hotel. You are coming.’ So I went. I brought a curry with me and sat with him. And he was drawing like he usually does, and we sat and we listened to the stuff that we’d made, and made notes. That and the next day were the last times I got to see him. But we had a beautiful listening session and talked about a lot of stuff.”

Watt also expressed gratitude to Ozzy for helping him break into the rock world, explaining, “He had so many things he taught me… And if Ozzy Osbourne chose you, he gave you a career. I always loved rock music, but I was a pop producer before he chose to let me stand next to him… and then I got to do all these amazing things after. But he was the first one. And… he chose Randy Rhoads. He chose Zakk Wylde; Jake E. Lee.”

The producer also credited Ozzy for helping to launch Yungblud’s career into a new stratosphere, saying, “[Yungblud] was on an amazing path before the Back To The Beginning concert, but Ozzy chose ‘Changes’ for him to sing… [Ozzy] loved [Yungblud] as a person and what he was doing as an artist and brought him out there. And he sang that song, and it changed his life.”

Ozzy & Black Sabbath: Back to the Beginning, the concert film documenting Ozzy and Sabbath’s final concert, had its world premiere hosted by the Osbourne family in Los Angeles on October 14th, with its wide release coming on October 28th. Tickets to the screenings are available here.
