For weeks after his death, Ozzy Osbourne’s music appeared on charts all around the world, with multiple songs and several albums rising high. Streams and sales of everything he worked on during his lengthy and storied career became immensely popular once more, as people wanted to honor his legacy after the sad news of his passing spread around the globe.
Whenever such a spike occurs, there must always be a descent, and for several frames now, Osbourne’s music — as well as the work of Black Sabbath — has been falling down the Billboard charts, and even vanishing, at least for the time being.
This frame, one of Osbourne’s most famous tunes rebounds and becomes a top 10 bestseller again, joining several other classics from his discography.
“No More Tears” Returns to the Top 10
Osbourne’s “No More Tears” returns to the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart. This week, the single is back at No. 9 on the list of bestselling tunes on platforms like iTunes that Billboard classifies specifically as hard rock.
“No More Tears” on the Hard Rock Chart
“No More Tears” didn’t reach the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart until this summer, despite being released many years prior. The smash debuted on the chart dated July 19, climbed to an all-time high of No. 3 in early August, and has now spent eight weeks somewhere on the roster.
Three Ozzy Osbourne Hits Chart At Once
Osbourne claims three spaces on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart this week. Last frame, “Crazy Train” ruled, and it now dips to third place. The late legend is replaced atop the tally by “End of You” from Poppy, Amy Lee, and Courtney LaPlante, which debuts at No. 1, while AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck” lifts to the runner-up spot. At the same time, Osbourne’s “Mama, I’m Coming Home” holds in fifth place.
Only AC/DC Matches Ozzy Osbourne
Osbourne is one of only two acts that claim multiple wins on the current Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart. AC/DC is the only other name to do so. As “Thunderstruck” misses out on another frame at No. 1 by one space, “Hell’s Bells” reappears at No. 7.
Ozzy Osbourne Returns to an Albums List
Osbourne also manages to return to the Top Hard Rock Albums chart this week. Blizzard of Ozz, his debut solo full-length, breaks back in at No. 25, the lowest possible spot. That set also climbs more than 10 rungs on the Top Album Sales tally, pushing to No. 31.
