There’s been quite a bit of debate who invented heavy metal. Some say Zep, others say Sab. I’d say they both contributed elements to the genre. While Sabbath may have brought the darker heavier plodding riffs (even though Zep had heavy dark stuff on their first album), Zep brought the wailing vocals which have influenced countless bands.
I don’t ever remember hearing any aspiring singer kid saying he wanted to learn to sing like Ozzy. Robert Plant and Dio have always been the pinnacle to try to reach. Halford and Dickinson probably follow close behind. And finally the Cookie Monster seems to have influenced countless more (I guess all those singers were Sesame Street fans as children). LOL

lol … where can you go? It was a perfect reply 
I also agree with your assessment of Zep and Sab both contributing heavily (pun) to metal
BS - Dirty Women - off Technical Ecstasy. If you haven’t heard the album, you should…You’d dig it.
The neon lights are shining on me again
I walk the lonely streets in search of a friend
I need a lady to help me to get through the night,through the night
If I could find one, then everything should be alright
The sleepy city is dreaming the night away
But on the street I watch tomorrow becoming today
I see a man he’s got taken away women for sale,yes, for sale
Guess that’s the answer, 'cause taken away women don’t fail
Oh, dirty women, they don’t mess around (2)
you got me coming, you got me coming around
Oh, dirty women, they don’t mess around
Walking the streets I wonder
Will it ever happen
Gotta be good then
Everything will be O.K.
If I could score tonight
Then I will end up happy
A woman for sale is
Gonna help me save my day.
Dwarf…That true about Geezer? I had never heard that before…

ID doesn’t lie … when men have flowing golden locks they are honest about their Sabbath
Can Heavy Metal creationism even be discussed without throwing Motorhead in the ring?

You mean the part about Geezer writing nearly all of Sabbath’s lyrics?
Yes, it’s true.

Motorhead is its own entity … they fit in at least 3 genres comfortable and arguably 2 or 3 more …
But they are an enormous influence on metal as we know it today without a shadow of a doubt … I mean Lemmy is Rock

deniro, who he looks a lot like in that picture
Good info ID, I feel better about choosing Geezer in my dream band now lol. The song “Box of Six” by Geezer is a great tune.
“Black Jesus”
Searching for Black Jesus
Oh yeah, sportin jewels and st, yaknahmean?
(Black Jesus; you can be Christian
Baptist, Jehovah Witness)
Straight tatted up, no doubt, no doubt
(Islamic, won’t matter to me
I’m a thug; thugs, we praise Black Jesus, all day)
Young Kadafi in this bih, set it off ni**a…
What?
I do my shootin’s on a knob, prayin to God for my squad
Stuck in a nightmare, hopin he might care
Though times is hard, up against all odds, I play my cards
like I’m jailin, shots hittin up my spot like midnight rains hailin
Got me bailin to stacks more green; Gods ain’t tryin to be trapped
on no block slangin no rocks like bean pies
Brainstorm on the beginnin
Wonder how s**t like the Qu’ran and the Bible was written
What is religion?
Gods words all cursed like crack
Shai-tan’s way of gettin us back
Or just another one of my Black JesuS traps
Who’s got the heart to stand beside me?
I feel my enemies creepin up in silence
Dark prayer, scream violence - demons all around me
Can’t even bend my knees just a lost cloud; Black Jesus
give me a reason to survive, in this earthly hell
Cause I swear, they tryin to break my well
I’m on the edge lookin down at this volatile pit
Will it matter if I cease to exist? Black Jesus
All hail, the pressure no endeavor can fail
Some missin souls turn to hoes when exposed to jail
In times of war we need somebody raw, rally the troops
like a Saint that we can trust to help to carry us through
Black Jesus, hahahahaha
He’s like a Saint that we can trust to help to carry us through
Black Jesus
Outlawz we got our own race, culture, religion
Rebellin against the system, commence to lynchin
The President ain’t even listenin to the pain of the youth
We make music for eternity, forever the truth
Political prisoner, the two choices that they givin us
Ride or die, for life they sentence us
Oh Black Jesus, please watch over my brother Shawn
Soon as the sky get bright, it’s just another storm
Brothers gone, now labeled a statistic
Ain’t no love for us ghetto kids, they call us nigglets
History repeats itself, nuttin new
In school I knew, e’rything I read wasn’t true
Black Jesus
To this click I’m dedicated, criminal orientated
An Outlaw initiated, blazed and faded
Made for terror, major league niaz pray together
bihes in they grave while my real niaz play together
We die clutchin gla*ses, filled with liquor bomblastic
Creamated, last wishes nia smoke my ashes
High sigh why die wishin, hopin for possibilities
I’ll mob on, why they copy me sloppily
Cops patrol projects, hatin the people livin in them
I was born an inmate, waitin to escape the prison
Went to church but don’t understand it, they underhanded
God gave me these commandments, the world is scandalous
Blast til they holy high; baptize they evil minds
Wise, no longer blinded, watch me shine trick
Which one of y’all wanna feel the degrees?
bi**hes freeze facin Black Jesus
All hail, the pressure no endeavor can fail
Some missin souls turn to hoes when exposed to jail
In times of war we need somebody raw, rally the troops
like a Saint that we can trust to help to carry us through
Black Jesus
Some say, some day, some how, some way, we gon’ fail
And it ain’t hard to tell, we dwell in hell
Trapped, black, scarred and barred
Searching for truth, where it’s hard to find God
I play the Pied Piper, and to this Thug Life, I’m a lifer
Proceed, to turn up the speed, just for stripes
My Black Jesus, walk through this valley with me
Where we, so used to hard times and casualties
Indeed, it hurt me deep to have to sleep on the streets
And haven’t eaten in weeks, so save a prayer for me
And all the young thugs, raised on drugs and guns
Blazed out and numb, slaves to this slums
This ain’t livin… Jesus
[singers repeat in background 3X]
We believed in you
Everything you do
Just wanna let you know, how we feel
Black Jesus!
Searchin for Black Jesus
It’s hard, it’s hard
We need help out here
So we searchins for Black Jesus
It’s like a Saint, that we pray to in the ghetto, to get us through
Somebody that understand our pain
You know maybe not too perfect, you know
Somebody that hurt like we hurt
Somebody that smoke like we smoke
Drink like we drink
That understand where we coming from
That’s who we pray to
We need help y’all
“Who Do You Love?”
Ever since I was a young scrub
I was a thug on the corner with my niggaz slangin drugs
I’m runnin from the narcs when they pass by dont ask why
I’m a hustler till my ass die
Even if I do come up I be ready when they run up, huh
I’ll be a nut to put my gun up, huh
I never trust these hoes at all, fucking with them tramp ass sluts who Suppose to fall
Since she played you for you money but the shit was cool
Guess its true niggaz be bitches too
You cant see how she worked you, all up in her skirt
Now you looking like a jerk, cause she hurt you
Now heads up dont be a playa hater
Just peep game keep your mind on your money watch the bitch change
See hoes love thugs, and thugs love loot
Hand it over motherfucker before I shoot
Who do u love
[Chorus (x2): 2Pac]
Maybe it’s the thug in me
Maybe it’s the thug in me
Tell me, Who do you love?
Maybe its the thug in me
Maybe its the thug in me
Who do you love?
[Verse 2: 2Pac]
Im livin that
Thug life baby, steady smoking endo going crazy
Baby come and hug me when you rub me, turn the lights down
We in the dark do you love me
Everyboy is talking bout they know me
But they aint down like my motherfucking homies
Tell me what you need when you see me
And we can get it on biatch take it easy
Don’t try to hold me, control me
But you can take my number, baby call me when you lonely
Cause its a mans world, aint no need to ask why
I’m high till I die, and strapped with my .45
Cause you can loose it in the gutter
I wonder if I die by the hands of another broke motherfucker
They call me the alcoholer I’m all in, thug 4 life nigga ballin
I’m gettin tired of these hoes tryna play me
You can’t fade me, me and my niggaz going crazy
All day long Im straight thuggin, and constantly mean muggin
Breakin the bitches that be buggin, tell me who do you love
[Chorus (x2): 2Pac]
Maybe it’s the thug in me
Maybe it’s the thug in me
Tell me, Who do you love?
Maybe its the thug in me
Maybe its the thug in me
Who do you love?
Not to put the guy down, but I doubt Ozzy has written lyrics of any kind. IIRC, Bob Daisley wrote nearly all of the stuff when he was with Ozzy.
