The world is still reeling from the loss of Ozzy Osbourne, the legendary “Prince of Darkness” who changed the course of rock music forever. And now, Axl Rose — frontman of Guns N’ Roses and one of Ozzy’s closest confidants in his later years — has broken his silence in a way only he could: with music, memory, and a voice full of grief.

In a raw, emotional post shared late last night on his social media accounts, Axl wrote:
“I don’t have the right words for this one. So I’ll let a song speak. One no one’s heard… until now.”
What followed stunned fans and rock historians alike: a never-before-released track titled “See You On The Other Side,” written and recorded in secret by Ozzy and Axl during a series of late-night jam sessions in 2011.
A Hidden Track, a Deep Bond
According to insiders, the song was originally recorded at Ozzy’s home studio in Los Angeles, when both men were navigating personal losses and battling health scares. Though it was never included on any album, the recording was kept safe by Axl — at Ozzy’s request.
“They both agreed it wasn’t for charts or critics,” said one source close to the family.
“It was a song between two broken souls — one last promise that they’d meet again someday.”
Lyrics That Cut to the Core

The track, shared along with a grainy black-and-white video of the two legends in the studio, opens with Ozzy’s unmistakable voice:
Voices, a thousand, thousand voicesWhispering, the time has passed for choicesGolden days are passing over, yeahI can’t seem to see you baby…
Then Axl joins in — not with his usual snarl, but a pained, stripped-down vocal that fans are calling the most vulnerable performance of his career.
Fans React With Tears and Gratitude
The internet exploded within minutes. “I never thought I’d cry to a song by Ozzy and Axl,” one fan posted. Another wrote, “This sounds like two legends writing their wills in melody.”
Within hours, “See You On The Other Side” was trending across social platforms, with millions begging for an official release on streaming platforms.
Sharon Osbourne Responds
Shortly after the song went public, Sharon Osbourne issued a statement:
“I knew about that song. Ozzy played it for me once, quietly, late one night. He said it was their little pact — to meet again, when the noise was gone. Thank you, Axl, for keeping your promise.”
A Final Encore for a Fallen Legend
While many artists have paid tribute to Ozzy — from Carrie Underwood to Justin Bieber and Eminem — Axl’s gesture feels the most personal.
Not just a performance. Not a cover. But a moment frozen in time — two icons, no spotlight, no screaming fans, just friendship and finality.
