Overview

In the music video for the song, Osbourne initially portrays an elderly man who shuffles to bed one night. As he falls asleep, a painting on the wall changes to a live-action street scene, in which a younger Osbourne enters the stage door of a theater and prepares for a performance, only for his dressing room mirror to shatter. The stage manager is a man with a decayed face, and Osbourne's accompaniment is a pit orchestra whose members are half-dead and covered with spiderwebs. As he sings, a deformed hunchback cuts a rope to drop a sandbag on the stage, barely missing him, and a spectator resembling Abraham Lincoln is shot in the back and falls over the railing of his balcony seat. The young and old Osbournes, the hunchback, the stage manager, and the Lincoln lookalike take a bow, and as the song ends, the old Osbourne sits up in bed and the painting returns to normal and falls off the wall. He then settles back down to sleep.

During the filming of the video, a shard of glass from the shattering mirror became lodged in Osbourne's face and throat. Though some scheduled concert dates had to be cancelled, he made a full recovery.

All of the main characters in the video are portrayed by Osbourne.

gollark: Hey, I *said* (GNU[+/])Linux, isn't that good enough for you, Stallman?!
gollark: Yep!
gollark: Also, though this is more personal preference, (GNU[+/])Linux (distributions) has (have):- a package manager useful for general use (the windows store is not really this)- a usable shell (yes, I'm aware you can use WSL, but it's not very integrated with everything else)- lower resource use- a nicer UI (well, the option for one; AFAIK Windows does not allow as much customization)
gollark: I've seen Candy Crush randomly installed on a Windows machine as well as random unwanted gaming-related services, there's advertising for OneDrive in the file explorer IIRC, control over updates is pretty limited though I guess you can do a bit, and by "spying" I don't mean anything targeted but just that it reports quite a lot back to Microsoft.
gollark: <@151391317740486657> So telemetry/spying, in-OS advertising, uncontrollable updates, random useless programs being installed, and that sort of thing don't happen to you?
