No More Tears is the sixth studio album by British heavy metal vocalist and songwriter Ozzy Osbourne. Released on September 17, 1991, the album charted at number 17 on the UK Albums Chart[3] and number seven on the US Billboard 200 albums chart.[4] No More Tears spawned four songs which reached the top ten of the US Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, including the number-two "Mama, I'm Coming Home",[5] and it contains the Grammy-winning track "I Don't Want to Change the World".[6] It is also one of Osbourne's two best-selling albums in North America, along with Blizzard of Ozz, having been certified quadruple platinum by the RIAA[7] and double platinum by CRIA.[8] It was the last Ozzy Osbourne album to feature drummer Randy Castillo and bassist Bob Daisley.

Overview

Guitarist Zakk Wylde contributed songwriting and guitar to the album, while Motörhead bassist/vocalist Lemmy Kilmister co-wrote the lyrics for four songs.[9] Although Mike Inez performs in the album's videos and promotional tours, long-time Ozzy Osbourne bassist Bob Daisley plays on the entire album. Inez is credited as a writer for the title track; although he does not perform on the actual recording, the intro bass riff was composed by him.[10]


The 2002 reissue of No More Tears featured two additional tracks entitled "Don't Blame Me" and "Party with the Animals". Both tracks had originally been released in 1991 as B-sides.

According to professional wrestler Chris Jericho, when asked what "A.V.H." stood for, Osbourne responded with "Aston Villa Highway".[11]
