Ozzy Osbourne still wants to collaborate with Paul McCartney — even though the latter doesn’t seem inclined to make it happen.
Speaking during a new episode of his SiriusXM show Ozzy Speaks, the musician, 76, opened up about his interactions with the Beatles bassist, noting that working with the legendary musician is high on his list of to-dos.
When the show’s co-host, Billy Morrison, asked Osbourne who his dream collaborator would be, it took the Black Sabbath frontman a total of one second to respond with “Paul McCartney.”
However, Osbourne quickly added: ‘I would be honored, but I couldn’t…’
Morrison doubled down on Osbourne’s hesitancy to duet, asking, “Why not? … Put it out into the universe. You never know.”
Osbourne then recalled meeting McCartney in 2001, saying, “He’s a really nice man. I was like, ‘Grrr.’ ”
This is not the first time that Osbourne has brought up his affinity for McCartney and the Beatles. In fact, in a previous print interview that the former did with Heat Magazine, as reported by Far Out Magazine, he noted that he once pleaded with McCartney, 83, to play bass on one of his songs.
“Meeting Paul McCartney was f—— phenomenal,” Osbourne shared with Heat. “I was in the studio at the same time as him and tried to get him to play bass on one of my songs. But he said he couldn’t improve on the bassline that was there. I said, ‘Are you kidding? You could p— on the record and I’d make it my life.’ “
