The album consists entirely of [[cover version|cover songs]], with an emphasis on hard rock from the 1960s and 1970s. This is Osbourne's first and only album to feature cover songs from various artists, although in 1982, Osbourne had released the live album ''[[Speak of the Devil (Ozzy Osbourne album)|Speak of the Devil]]'' featuring renditions of songs from his time with [[Black Sabbath]]. All but 4 songs were originally released in the box set ''[[Prince of Darkness (Ozzy Osbourne album)|Prince of Darkness]]'', released earlier the same year. The additional songs on this album which are not featured in ''Prince of Darkness'' are "[[Rocky Mountain Way]]", "[[Sunshine of Your Love]]", "[[Woman (John Lennon song)|Woman]]" and "[[Go Now (song)|Go Now]]".<ref>{{cite web|title=''Billboard'' album chart history-Ozzy Osbourne|url={{BillboardURLbyName|artist=ozzy osbourne|chart=all}}|accessdate=17 February 2009}}</ref> Whilst he cites The Beatles as his favourite band, his favourite song of all time is [[Procol Harum|Procol Harum's]] "[[A Whiter Shade of Pale]]". He had wished to cover this song but was advised against it since it had recently been covered by a "close musical associate" <ref>Prince's Trust trading Ltd. (2009). Inspired* by music. London: Shoehorn Arts & Culture Books. pp. 116-119. {{ISBN|978-190714901-6}}.</ref> (then-former guitarist [[Zakk Wylde]] covered the song with his band [[Black Label Society]] on their 2004 album [[Hangover Music Vol. VI]]). ''Under Cover'' is the only Osbourne album to feature the work of [[Alice in Chains]]' guitarist [[Jerry Cantrell]]<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/former-alice-in-chains-guitarist-laying-down-tracks-for-new-ozzy-osbourne-album/ |title=Former ALICE IN CHAINS Guitarist Laying Down Tracks For New OZZY OSBOURNE Album |date=August 16, 2004 |website=Blabbermouth |access-date=June 12, 2018}}</ref> or bassist [[Chris Wyse]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.msopr.com/press-releases/ozzy-osbourne-goes-‘under-cover’/ |title=Ozzy Osbourne Goes 'Under Cover' |date=October 5, 2005 |website=Mitch Schneider Organization |access-date=June 12, 2018}}</ref> The album is also available in [[DualDisc]] format.
