Today's song is one that is a song that got me to like an artist that most people already absolutely loved. Shot In The Dark by Ozzy Osbourne is the song. I never really cared for Ozzy prior to this song and the album it came from. I didn't really care for what was called "classic rock" then, which was bands from the 1970's, such as Black Sabbath, Ozzy and many others. It just wasn't my thing for various reasons.

When this album and the song came out and I heard it, it clicked. I listened, enjoyed and really started to appreciate Ozzy as a human and as an artist. I really started listening to prior stuff and absorbing it all. Today, I'm a big Ozzy fan and am so glad that a song of his really changed things.

Do you have a song from an artist that did something similar for you?

[Verse 1]
Out on the streets, I'm stalking the night
I can hear my heavy breathing
Paid for the kill, but it doesn't seem right
Something there I can't believe in

[Pre-Chorus]
Voices are calling from inside my head
I can hear them, I can hear them
Vanishing memories of things that were said
They can't try to hurt me now

[Chorus]
But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
Just a shot in the dark
Always creeping up on you, alright
