Ozzy Osbourne spoke in a recent interview about a possible Ozzy and Van Halen get together. The Prince of Darkness shared a story about Eddie Van Halen once calling him to see if he would be interested in singing in VH.

Ozzy said: “No, no, no. He phoned me up one time and asked me if I wanted to sing in his band — way after Sammy [Hagar had left the band]. I think he was a bit drunk. We’ve all done one of them — calling at four o’clock in the morning, going, [makes unintelligible sound].”
