music.wikisort.org - Composition"Close My Eyes Forever" is a duet by Lita Ford with Ozzy Osbourne from Ford's 1988 album Lita. It was later remixed and released as a single titled "Close My Eyes Forever (Remix)" in 1989, with the single only differing from the album version in sound quality editing. The song was written by Ford and Osbourne as the result of an accident in the studio, during which they both drank heavily and inadvertently wrote the lyrics to the song together.[3][4] This song is Ford's highest charting single, peaking at number eight on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1989 and also peaked at number 25 on the U.S. Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart. It is also Osbourne's highest charting single of his solo career. "Close My Eyes Forever" was one of four singles from the album Lita.[5]

«Close My Eyes Forever» es un sencillo de Lita Ford, ayudada por Ozzy Osbourne, quien se casó con su mánager, Sharon Osbourne, en el 1988.
Ozzy y Lita se unieron para grabar esta canción que salió como sencillo en 1988. Tuvo buena respuesta por ser 2 personas que habían salido de bandas exitosos hacía poco: Ozzy de Black Sabbath y Lita de The Runaways. La canción demuestra las habilidades vocales que tienen Ozzy y Lita, aunque con la voz un poco distorsionada.
