**Jack Black Summons the Spirit of Metal: Covers ‘Mr. Crowley’ with Teen Rock Prodigies in Electrifying Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne**
In a performance that lit up the internet and melted metalhead hearts worldwide, **Jack Black** took the stage with a group of jaw-droppingly talented teen musicians to deliver a thunderous rendition of Ozzy Osbourne’s classic **“Mr. Crowley.”** The tribute, filmed live at a youth music conservatory in Los Angeles, is already being called “the most insane youth metal collab ever filmed.”
Wearing a cape, eyeliner, and channeling full “School of Rock” energy, Jack Black opened the set with a growl: “This one’s for the Prince of Darkness himself… Mr. Ozzy Osbourne!” What followed was four and a half minutes of electrified chaos—complete with dueling guitar solos, a 14-year-old keyboardist nailing every note of Don Airey’s iconic intro, and Jack howling the chorus with operatic power.
The performance was both hilarious and reverent, as Black danced, wailed, and bowed before a candlelit portrait of Ozzy mid-song. Fans and musicians alike were stunned by the precision and passion of the teen band, many of whom were handpicked from music programs around the country.
“**It’s like watching a time machine and a fireball collide**,” one fan posted on X (formerly Twitter). “These kids are the future of metal—and Jack Black is their chaotic wizard king.”
The video instantly went viral, gaining millions of views in less than 48 hours. Even Sharon Osbourne reposted it, calling the performance “absolutely incredible.”
Jack ended the performance with his fist raised high, declaring: “**Ozzy—this one’s for you, brother. Long live metal!**”
With his signature blend of humor and heart, Jack Black reminded the world that heavy metal isn’t just alive—it’s in good hands. And in true Ozzy fashion, it refuses t
o age quietly.
