by Paul Cashmere on October 5, 2011

Honda is using the Ozzy Osbourne classic ‘Crazy Train’ done a cappella by a family in the new commercial for the Honda Pilot.

The ad is done Wayne’s World style but with a family gradually all vocally doing the instruments in the song. Wayne’s World kicked off the format all those years ago with Queen’s ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’.

Bob Daisley and Randy Rhodes wrote the song with Ozzy in 1980, a year after Osbourne left Black Sabbath. It first appeared on the ‘Blizzard of Ozz’ album. It is now considered Ozzy’s signature song.

‘Crazy Train’ has grown over the years, especially in the USA, to fall into that wonderful genre … classic rock.

Toto Returns To Melbourne #Review

Toto’s 2025 setlist focuses on the heritage of the band. The setlist was interesting. Compared to how it was curated for Australia in 2019 this time Toto kept to the albums of the 1900s. Mind you, there were no complaints from the audience for doing that. The biggest hits came from those early years.

That first Christopher Cross album was so huge that it became all about the songs, not the musician. Until you see Christopher Cross live you forget what a great guitarist he is.
