Tony Iommi Explains His Eurovision Song

03/08/2013
. (hennemusic) Earlier this week, Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi revealed that he is the man behind Armenia's song entry into the Eurovision song contest.

Now, Iommi is sharing more details about his involvement in the contest. The Sabbath founder said it had been a "new experience" for him.

"I've done a lot of things, but never that," Iommi tells the BBC. "The thing is, I've always thought, 'oh no, not the Eurovision', and here I am in it now."

Representatives from the Armenian Eurovision entry got in touch with Iommi to ask if he could write a song.

"I first said, 'oh God, I don't know' - it seemed really strange, me doing a Eurovision song, I don't usually do that," he said. "But I said, 'I've got a rock ballad, I'll send it over." more on this story
