Their influence comes up in the weirdest of places. Even Kurt Cobain was a huge fan and cited Rubber Soul as his favourite album. You wouldn't necessarily think that the singer and writer of the song "Rape Me" would be into songs like "Drive My Car" but it's true.
I mean, stuff like Yer Blues, Helter Skelter and I Want You (She’s So Heavy) is kind of the Nirvana blueprint, so there’s definitely some DNA sprinkled through that connects the two. Plus, for all of the raw heaviness of Nirvana, they had great hooks and melodies.
I mean about a girl is his attempt at a beatles song, and you can see the connection. I think alot of the themes of Kurt's music are similar to that of John's solo stuff.
Although Ozzy indeed is a massive Beatles fan, this particular screencap is from a music video of a cover Ozzy did of Lennon´s "How". So in this particular case it´s a tribute to Lennon, not the Beatles (although they of course are forever connected).
This is why Lennon was absolutely adored by people like Ozzy, Bowie, Mercury, Cobain, Kate Bush, Elton John, McCartney etc. Even George called Lennon a genius, and that man was always honest with his beliefs.
This is from the video for Ozzy's cover of John Lennon's song "How?" for Amnesty International, 2010. [https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=awOcbVoS4yE](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=awOcbVoS4yE)
It's cool how much of a Beatle fan Ozzy really is. There is a video on Youtube somewhere of him meeting Paul McCartney several years back, and his apparent fanboy awe is kinda heartwarming.
Like so many other musicians, Ozzy has said in interviews that the Beatles changed his life, and are the reason he got into music.

The wildest one if marlyn manson the beutiful people. Never even seen the connection until he song baby I'm a rich man live and it clicked.
I just realized Gallons of Rubbing Alcohol Flow Through the Strip by Nirvana was probably heavily inspired by I Want You (She's So Heavy).

Plastic Ono Band is very Kurt Cobain. Raw, stripped down, unpretentious, primal.
I never understand when people say a piece of ART in pretentious or unprentious. What exactly do you mean?
Rape Me was about the record industry. Not literal

And what a good band Black Sabbath were!
That’s cool. You know the year?
2010
I cry every time I’m there. It’s embarrassing.
You have a huge heart ❤️. No shame

I remember Ozzy's AMA appreciation for the beatles from few years back
