"I Don't Want To Change The World" by Ozzy Osbourne

John Michael Osbourne, more commonly known as Ozzy, rose to fame in his groundbreaking heavy metal band Black Sabbath in the 70s. Earning himself the nickname "The Prince of Darkness," Ozzy lived up to this reputation with outrageous partying and on-stage antics, which only increased in intensity after he was fired from the band in 1979.

Osbourne has sustained remarkable success ever since, which came full circle with a Black Sabbath reunion in 2011. While never a major presence on the Top 100, he's sold tons of records around the world and he's known for a number of classic rock hits like "Crazy Train," "Goodbye To Romance," and "Mr. Crowley."

The first single Ozzy landed on the chart was "Shot In The Dark," which managed to reach #68 in 1986. His biggest chart success came soon after in the form of a haunting duet with Lita Ford called "Close My Eyes Forever," which peaked at #8 in 1989. 

Riding this resurgence of popularity, Ozzy worked on his biggest commercial success yet, the 1991 effort "No More Tears." The title track went to #71 and his acoustic-driven power ballad, "Mama, I'm Coming Home," landed at #28, giving him his second best chart success. Ozzy's only other Top 100 appearance came in 2007 when "I Don't Wanna Stop" reached #61.

"I Don't Want To Change The World" is another cut from "No More Tears" that remains one of my favorite Ozzy tunes. It didn't chart, but won a Grammy for Metal Performance. Like several other songs from this masterpiece of an album, it was co-written with Lemmy from Motorhead.

"Shot Of Poison" by Lita Ford

Born in London, Lita Ford hit it big early in the states as a member of The Runaways. The blond bombshell struck gold again as a solo artist in 1988 with "Kiss Me Deadly," which smooched its way to #12. Her creepy duet with Ozzy Osbourne did ever better, scaring its way up to #8. These tunes helped boost her record, "Lita," to #29.

Lita's follow-up 1990 record, "Stilleto," fizzled, but she managed a minor comeback hit jumping on the "poison" bandwagon in 1991. A lot of poison was in music in the late 80s and early 90s, both literally and figuratively. We had a band named Poison, songs called "Poison" by Alice Cooper and Bell Biv DeVoe, and now Lita Ford's "Shot Of Poison." It is a catchy tune that deserved better than #45. It would serve as her last charting hit.
