[edit] Children sound clip

The sound clip at the beginning with children talking...It seems like I hear it everywhere. I don't think it's just from that movie. I once heard it during an episode of Full House...the one where the family rebuilds a playground after it was vandalized. However, this may have been released before or after the song was released.

Is it just a common sound byte on keyboards/snythesizers, maybe? I don't know, but I thought it seemed interesting. 24.13.187.147 04:06, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

I hearby dispute this article, for not having a NPOV. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.121.152.162 (talk) 02:24, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Ozzy Osbourne - No More Tears.JPG

Image:Ozzy Osbourne - No More Tears.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:25, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] in the lyrics (and video) there is no indication that a molestation or for that matter a rape, actually takes place

The most he says is "Little angel come and sit upon my knee" For people to extrapolate this to child rape is wrong and slanderous. Ozzy Osbourne is a family man with no arrests or convictions for child abuse. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.121.152.162 (talk) 02:25, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Of course Ozzy Osbourne is a family man and a nice guy. But the song clearly has allusions to child abuse/kidnapping, especially with the line "Would you like some sweeties, little girl?". But that doesn't mean that he can't write about subjects like this. Look at Janie's Got a Gun by Aerosmith. Just cause musicians write about taboo subjects, doensn't make them bad people. 24.14.105.100 (talk) 06:18, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
