"Flying High Again" is a song by British heavy metal vocalist Ozzy Osbourne, from his 1981 album Diary of a Madman. Released as a single, it reached number sixteen on the UK Singles Chart and number two on the U.S. Top Rock Tracks chart in 1982.Though widely thought to be about drug use, Osbourne has stated that the song was actually inspired by his successful re-emergence as a solo artist after being fired from the band Black Sabbath and subsequently believing his career was over.
