The Osbourne Family Album was a various artists compilation album based on the television series The Osbournes with the songs selected by the family. It included the theme song "Crazy Train" (Pat Boone's version) as well as contributions by Ozzy and Kelly. The songs were interspersed with dialogue from the show. The odd number tracks are dialogue from the show while the even number tracks are songs. Released on 12 June 2002, it was dedicated to family member Aimee[1] who chose not to participate in the television show. The album was released during the second season of the series.[2] The album received a parental advisory sticker for the dialogue tracks, which contain profanity. A clean version of the album was also released, which censors out the profanity with bleeps.
