Ozzy Osbourne has officially revealed the setlist for his highly anticipated 2025 “Soul of a Madman” Tour — a farewell spectacle crafted to honor a legacy of darkness, defiance, and undeniable greatness.
After over five decades of redefining rock and heavy metal, Ozzy Osbourne has officially revealed the setlist for his highly anticipated 2025 “Soul of a Madman” Tour — a farewell spectacle crafted to honor a legacy of darkness, defiance, and undeniable greatness. The tour, which Ozzy has called his “final ride through the gates of hell,” will be his last full-scale global trek, capping off one of the most extraordinary and turbulent careers in the history of music.
The announcement of the setlist alone has sent shockwaves through the rock world, confirming that the Prince of Darkness intends to bow out not quietly, but with a thunderous roar that spans every era of his reign — from his Black Sabbath roots to his iconic solo career.
A Farewell Through Fire and Fury
The “Soul of a Madman” Tour will span more than 30 cities across North America, Europe, and Asia, with special one-off appearances rumored for select festivals and legacy venues. The tour is expected to blend live vocals, immersive visual effects, and archival audio from Ozzy’s most unforgettable performances, making each night both a concert and a tribute to his unmatched influence.
The 21-song setlist is divided into three acts, plus a blistering encore, and takes fans on a journey through Ozzy’s signature chaos — from Sabbath’s apocalyptic doom riffs to the soaring anthems of his solo years.
ACT I: From the Depths of Sabbath
- Black Sabbath
- War Pigs
- Iron Man
- Children of the Grave
- Fairies Wear Boots
- Snowblind
The opening act dives deep into Ozzy’s Black Sabbath days — the dark, riff-driven sound that gave birth to heavy metal itself. With Tony Iommi rumored to make guest appearances at select dates, this portion of the set is designed as a thunderous curtain-raiser, awakening old demons and sacred riffs that still haunt rock history. “War Pigs” and “Iron Man” will feature immersive war-zone visuals and stage pyrotechnics synced to every guitar blast.
ACT II: The Blizzard Blows In
- I Don’t Know
- Crazy Train
- Mr. Crowley
- Flying High Again
- Over the Mountain
- Bark at the Moon
Act II explodes into Ozzy’s solo prime. Backed by his current touring band — featuring guitar virtuoso Zakk Wylde — this section is a showcase of Ozzy’s early ’80s hits, written with the late Randy Rhoads and continued with some of the most memorable metal riffs ever composed. A holographic tribute to Rhoads during “Mr. Crowley” is set to be one of the tour’s most emotional moments, with archival footage and vocals intertwining with the live band.
ACT III: Shadows and Reflections
- No More Tears
- Mama, I’m Coming Home
- Shot in the Dark
- Road to Nowhere
- Under the Graveyard
- Dreamer
The third act brings in Ozzy’s more reflective and emotional tracks. “No More Tears” is expected to feature a full string section, while “Under the Graveyard,” his recent semi-autobiographical ballad, serves as a poignant moment of introspection. Fans can expect large-scale LED screens flashing images of Ozzy’s life — the highs, the lows, and everything in between — from wild stage dives to hospital beds, capturing the full arc of the madman’s journey.
Encore: One Last Scream
- Diary of a Madman
- Suicide Solution
- Paranoid
The encore is raw, unfiltered, and ferocious. “Diary of a Madman” will be performed in full theatrical glory, while “Suicide Solution” stands as a reminder of the controversy and chaos Ozzy always carried — and survived. The final song of the night, and perhaps of his touring life, is “Paranoid,” the track that started it all. As flames rise and the lights dim, Ozzy will scream his final lines to a sea of raised horns and tears.
The Final Bow of a Living Legend
In a press conference streamed live from Birmingham, Ozzy said:
“This tour is the end of the road. My body’s not what it used to be, but my heart still beats for the stage. I want to give you everything I’ve got — one last time.”
He added, half-smiling through his signature snarl: “I’m not going to fade away. I’m going out loud.”
Fans React: “We’re Not Ready”
Reactions across social media have been explosive. The hashtags #OzzyFarewell and #SoulOfAMadmanTour are trending globally, as fans brace themselves to say goodbye to a man who wasn’t just a musician — he was a movement.
Rock legends, including Metallica, Judas Priest, and even former Sabbath bandmates, have expressed their support and awe, with many hinting at surprise cameos during select shows.
Soul of a Madman, Heart of a Legend
As the world prepares for one final ride with the Prince of Darkness, it’s clear that Ozzy Osbourne isn’t just taking a bow — he’s delivering one final, unforgettable scream into the abyss.
The soul of a madman never dies. It simply echoes louder with time.
