== Background == Guitarist [[Zakk Wylde]] contributed songwriting to the album, while [[Motörhead]] bassist/vocalist [[Lemmy|Lemmy Kilmister]] wrote the lyrics for six songs; however, only four were used on the album.<ref>{{cite web|title=Zakk Wylde Interview|date= 22 September 2010|url= http://musiclegends.ca/interviews/zakk-wylde-interview/|publisher=Music Legends|access-date=28 May 2013}}</ref> Although [[Mike Inez]] appeared in the album's [[Music video|videos]] and promotional tours, long-time Osbourne collaborator [[Bob Daisley]] plays bass on the entire album. Inez is credited as a writer for the title track; although he does not perform on the actual recording, the intro bass riff was composed by him.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.classicrockrevisited.com/interviews02/Bob+Daisley+Interview.htm |title=Bob Daisley - The Interview |last=Wright |first=Jeb |publisher=Classic Rock Revisited.com |date=April 2002 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070516075317/http://www.classicrockrevisited.com/interviews02/Bob%2BDaisley%2BInterview.htm |archive-date=16 May 2007 |access-date=16 November 2015 }}</ref> The 2002 reissue of ''No More Tears'' featured two additional tracks entitled "Don't Blame Me" and "Party with the Animals". Both tracks had originally been released in 1991 as B-sides. The version of "Don't Blame Me" on the 2002 reissue contains a different set of lyrics than the original b-side. The original b-side version can be found on the single and the original Japanese pressing of the CD. According to professional wrestler and [[Fozzy]] lead vocalist [[Chris Jericho]], when asked about the title of the song "A.V.H.", Osbourne told him it stands for "[[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] Highway", a homage to the football team he and his [[Black Sabbath]] bandmates followed as young men growing up in [[Birmingham]].<ref>{{cite book |last1=Jericho |first1=Chris |author-link=Chris Jericho |last2=Fornatale |first2=Peter Thomas |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=hq2nAwAAQBAJ&q=chris+jericho+the+best+in+the+world+at+what+i+have+no+idea+Aston+Villa+Highway&pg=PT135 |title=The Best in the World: At What I Have No Idea |location=London, UK |publisher=Gotham Books |date=14 October 2014 |isbn=978-1592407521 |access-date=16 November 2015 }}</ref>
