* OZZY OSBOURNE - "Crazy Train"

Lyrics: https://genius.com/Ozzy-osbourne-crazy-train-lyrics

“Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love and forget how to hate”

The kid playing those arpeggios at the start of the "guitar solo" did very well.

It’s been a while but a DU poster put up a video of older kids at a music school and they played No More Tears and if you looked away from the screen, you’d swear it was the real thing..they were that good. I pull it up on YouTube every so often because I love how the kids are so into the music. Thanks for the smiles this brought. Happy New Year
