Ozzy Osbourne - Beatles And His Dogs.... Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne drew inspiration from an unlikely source in the recording studio - pop act The Beatles.The rocker confesses he's been a lifelong fan of the Liverpool, England, group - despite his heavy metal tastes lying uncomfortably against their more commercial sound.And he even credits the foursome with giving him the motivation to achieve global success.He says, "Sometimes people wonder how exactly The Beatles inspired Black Sabbath, but they inspired me to keep dreaming and those dreams haven't gone to waste because I get letters from Paul McCartney now."Meanwhile the former hellraiser says he prefers the company of his pet pooches to most humans because they're much easier to understand.The rocker currently boasts 11 dogs at home but never tires of the constant canine company.He says, "I love dogs. I can relate to them better than some people. They've all got their own personalities."The kids get new dogs and then they f**k off to Europe for work and I'm left with them. But dogs are alright - they don't sit around all day going, 'Hmmm, how can I rip him off?', unlike a lot of the people I've met in my life."
