A song with a mystical theme, said to be one of the most enigmatic lyrics in Black Sabbath’s catalog.

It was written by Ronnie James Dio, who became the new lead singer after Ozzy Osbourne’s departure.

It is included on the 1980 album Heaven and Hell.

Evil WomanBlack Sabbath9rank/position

In July 2025, just a few days after what turned out to be their final live performance, Ozzy Osbourne passed away, bringing Black Sabbath to an extraordinarily fitting close.

As the progenitors of all heavy rock, their monumental legacy will undoubtedly continue to be celebrated.

But did you know their debut single, “Evil Woman,” was actually a cover? The song was originally released in 1969 by the American blues-rock band Crow, reaching a respectable No.

17 on the Billboard chart in the United States.

It’s fascinating to compare the original with Sabbath’s version, so be sure to give both a listen.
