Sobre el álbum
El álbum Bark at the Moon marca el inicio de una nueva y exitosa era para Ozzy, ya que es el primero en contar con el virtuoso guitarrista Jake E. Lee. Tras la trágica pérdida de Randy Rhoads, la banda se enfrenta al desafío de seguir adelante. Por lo tanto, este disco es una poderosa declaración de resiliencia, manteniendo la esencia del heavy metal de los ochenta, pero con un toque más afilado y moderno.De hecho, la canción que da título al álbum es un himno inmortal, con un riff icónico y un videoclip que se convirtió en un clásico de la MTV. Además, el estilo de Jake E. Lee, más agresivo y con una técnica deslumbrante, aporta una nueva energía a la banda. Por otro lado, el álbum está repleto de temas potentes y melodías memorables. En consecuencia, "Bark at the Moon" no solo superó las enormes expectativas, sino que también consolidó a Ozzy como una fuerza imparable del metal.

Letra
[Osbourne] Screams break the silence Waking from the dead of night Vengence is boiling He's returned to kill the light Then when he's found who he's looking for Listen in awe and you'll hear him Bark at the moon Ha ha ha ha ha... Years spent in torment Buried in a nameless grave Now he has risen Miracles would have to save Those that the beast is looking for Listen in awe and you'll hear him Bark at the moon Hey yeah, bark at the moon They cursed and buried him along with shame And thought his timeless soul had gone, gone In empty burning hell - unholy one But he's returned to prove them wrong (so wrong) Ooh, yeah baby Howling in shadows Living in a lunar spell He finds his heaven Spewing from the mouth of hell Those that the beast is looking for Listen in awe and you'll hear him Bark at the moon Hey yeah, bark at the moon Hey yeah, bark at the moon Oh Oh yeah, bark at the moon - You're No Different5:00

Letra
[Osbourne] There's no present, there's no future I don't even know about the past It's all timeless and neverending And for me to think it's all too vast It goes forever and ever You thought you knew but you never There goes tomorrow Journey to the centre of eternity Journey to the centre of eternity The time is coming, but also going And it's leaving never to return It may be heaven, could be forever But if it's hell then you can watch me burn It goes forever and ever You thought you knew but you never There goes tomorrow Journey to the centre of eternity Journey to the centre of eternity I've got to travel forever It's all within my mind An endless path to endeavor Forever is a long, long time There's no secrets and no corruption In the centre of infinity There's no limits to non-existence And no begining to my destiny It goes forever and ever You thought you knew but you never There goes tomorrow Journey to the centre of eternity Journey to the centre of eternity Journey to the centre of eternity Journey to the centre of eternity - So Tired3:57

Letra
[Osbourne] I'll never bother keeping up with you Burning the candle at both ends, it's true You know the writing's on the wall Why do you ride to take a fall Slow down, you're moving way too fast Slow down, you know you'll never last Slow down, your haste is making waste Slow down, and join the human race, yeah I tried to tell you time and time again You know you'll have to pay the consequence Now you're obsessed with such a pace But slow and steady wins the race Slow down, you're moving way too fast Slow down, you know you'll never last Slow down, your haste is making waste Slow down, and join the human race, yeah You seem to run around and 'round in vain People are saying that you've gone insane Tell me just what you're running from One day you're here, the next you're gone Slow down, you're moving way too fast Slow down, you know you'll never last Slow down, your haste is making waste Slow down, and join the human race - Waiting For Darkness5:14
Letra
[Osbourne] Waiting for darkness Why doesn't anybody see, now Deafened by silence Why doesn't anybody hear I'm waiting for darkness Playing with fire But they're screaming when they're burned, yeah Out of the sunlight Hasn't anybody learned I know what they'll find It's in their mind It's what they want to see Spare me from the light Here comes the night And here I'll stay Waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness Promise me rebirth And then you tear me from the womb Give me my freedom And then you lock me in a tomb I know what they'll find It's in their mind It's what they want to see Spare me from the light Here comes the night And here I'll stay Waiting for darkness You gotta believe You gotta believe it's true I'm waiting for darkness I just can't conceive Why darkness is overdue I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness Who knows the answers Is it friend or is it foe Don't ask me questions There are things you should not know I know what you'll find It's in your mind It's what you want to see Spare me from the light Here comes the night And here I'll stay Waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness I'm waiting for darkness - Spiders
