Considering I posted “So Tired“ music video, I might as well try with Bark at the Moon. Highest quality on YouTube, rendered in 1080p. Lyrically, the song deals with a creature of some sort who once terrorized a town, was killed, and later mysteriously returned to once again wreak havoc upon the villagers. The music video, however, borrows heavily from Robert Louis Stevenson's classic Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde story, depicting Osbourne as a “mad scientist“ who ingests a substance in his laboratory which causes him to transform into the werewolf depicted on the Bark at the Moon album cover. Thought to be insane, he is subsequently committed to a mental institution. The make-up effects were done by Rick Baker, best known for his work on John Landis's An American Werewolf in London and the music video for Michael Jackson's Thriller (which Landis also directed). The music video for the song was partially filmed at the Holloway Sanatorium, outside London, England. In the early 1980s infancy of the music video medium, the video, which was the first Osbourne had made, was highly anticipated due to his outrageous image. Drummer Tommy Aldridge played on the studio recording of the track, but the video features his replacement in the band, Carmine Appice. Lyrics: Screams break the silence Waking from the dead of night Vengence is boiling He's returned to kill the light Then when he's found who he's looking for Listen in awe and you'll hear him Bark at the moon Years spent in torment Buried in a nameless grave Now he has risen Miracles would have to save Those that the beast is looking for Listen in awe and you'll hear him Bark at the moon Hey, yeah Bark at the moon They cursed and buried him Along with shame And thought his timeless soul had gone (gone) In empty burning hell--unholy one But he's returned to prove them wrong So wrong Oh yeah, baby Howling in shadows Living in a lunar spell He finds his heaven Spewing from the mouth of hell Those that the beast is looking for Listen in awe and you'll hear him Bark at the moon. Hey, yeah Bark at the moon Hey, yeah Bark at the moon Whoa Whoa Yeah, Bark at the moon (Howls) Writers: Ozzy Osbourne, Jake E. Lee and Bob Daisley
