“If you want a metaphor about oral sex, right here you go!”
I just love that he saw that person’s interpretation and was like CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
True chaotic bastard energy
Hozier: they realized i was making songs about oral sex so i just made more
in hozier fashion, let's quote oscar wilde : « Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power. », so there's moment's silence
he doesn't even try to sing. he opens his mouth and music escapes.
That's how singing should be for everyone ;)
S Sayali as someone with a musical background, if you’re good that’s how it’s supposed to look and feel- and we stan that
Good description, yes
And it's the most beautiful music !
Everybody say thank you Hozier
THANK YOU, HOZZY!!
thanku hozya
thank
thank you hozier
Thank you *jesus
knowing that hozier also blushes at his lyrics makes everything so much better
hozier: here’s a song about oral literally all of us: aw hell yeah dude
Props to whoever gave him such good head to inspire this song, we salute you ma'am/sir/whomstever
100 points to Gryffindor (or whatever house you belong to) for this spot on comment....
@@michellemichelle5202 nah mate he said that about Take Me To Church. He literally says the song is about the relationship between power and sex, or between the people In power and oral sex. "Not to be crude", sure, and to be taken with a pinch of salt, but "if you want a metaphor about oral sex, there you go". I'm quoting literally here, there's not much way around it.
@@michellemichelle5202 mate i didn't sat that's what the song's about tho? He literally says he had that lyric in his mind ("that moment silence when my baby puts the mouth on me") and I just assumed that had to come from somewhere lmao. "The song is supposed to be ironic" as is this comment, it ain't that deep
@@michellemichelle5202 mate i don't know where you got this fantasy of me drooling at the thought of being topped by Hozier when this comment is literally about saluting the person who topped him to inspire this song. It. Ain't. That. Deep. Mate.
@UC353Wr9lUZF6Jp-wgjzUpvQ you’ve definitely misinterpreted it. No emotional response from me whatsoever 😁
Imagine being the person who ispired Hozier through a random comment on the internet.
Olga Konstan That’s exactly what I was saying to myself
I'd like to inspire this song by having sex with him XD
I love how he combines religion and sex..divinity,power passion.. As if to ask what's more pure? Which one is really divine?
YES YES. like I feel so close to God when I listen to Hozier but also so close to the dark side...wow
@@sydneybrewster2880 That's poetry for ya.. we all get out of it what we need.
I've always loved the hypocrisy of people viewing oral sex as an act of submission on the givers behalf but it really couldn't be more different, the receiver is literally trusting this person enough to let them put the most sensitive part of their body between their teeth.
Somehow hozier captured the mutual power that comes from giving oral sex in a loving and raw way.
So in conclusion: Take Me to Church is not about oral sex; Moment's Silence is.
props to him for being so eloquent while sheepish
I wasn't sure if "when my baby puts her mouth on me" meant kissing or oral sex. Now I realize, it's the latter. Only Hozier can write about oral sex so poetically.
HAHA same I always though about kissing, then I saw this interview and my mind exploted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! gosh
The way "come" is a double entendre gets me every time. Pure genius
i fucking love that this rockin bop was inspired by a GENIUS comment, so iconic
Rachael Poulin i know! Thanks to whoever directed him to genius 😂
I love to know that he was looking at them 😂 Just imagining him looking at the various interpretations people post where they’re like ‘it obviously means this’ and he was like ‘it does?’
every time hozier explains the meanings to one of his songs i'm completely blindsided, like this is about oral sex?? cherry wine is about domestic abuse??? what??? but they get more and more beautiful the more i understand them :)
To me cherry wine being about domestic abuse is pretty clear from the lyrics
I missed about cherry wine too initially
I know this is weird but your fingers are STUNNING
His hands are stunning. He could probably do hand modeling. twitter.com/hozier/status/646212773647486976
Not weird. Im in love with his hands too.
i just have to show some solidarity here ... i'm obsessed with men's hands. What can i say? some girls go abs and some go pecs ... lol hands make me WEAK. All the power and potential in a man ... from love to violence comes through ... his hands. His talents ... his intent. It's a tough fixation to have lol ... hands are naked things and they make the whole man naked when you look at them.
On that note .. yes ... STUNNING : )
LOL I thought the same! His hands are so slick and smooth looking. Perfect for...guitaring. 😁
;)
I'm not getting much done at the moment with binge watching Hozier videos all day.
been there, done that, and really, what's more necessary than binge watching His Hoziness all day?
This is me. All day . Every day. I'm a 42 year old smitten mother who is in love with Hozier. I need a support group.
Most people don’t break the fourth wall these days. I respect that man.
Same, this is getting out of hand, although I'm loving it every minute :D
I'm thinking of having a break from it. I'm prone to anxiety and I'm feeling too much of love and emotion already LOL
How do I date him
in your dream
Story of my life
Get in line?
Faith and Prayer that God brings you a Hozier clone. I pray daily for it!! 😂😂
He spends his Christmas at his small town, go there for Christmas and accidentally meet him. Your welcome, also may i be invited to the wedding.
You are a blessing to our generation Hozier. If I ever come to Ireland it will be for you and because of you.
Without a doubt..
relatable... I visited partly inspired by him
I reside in his domain
Ditto!
I visited Ireland because of him and let me tell you it was totally worth it. It was so, so much better than expected. I saw the video of NFWMB and I fell in love with Killruddery house so I thought that I need to go there and see it in person. About three months later I visited Ireland with my mother and we've seen a lot of the country but we're still far away from enough. We didn't go to Killruddery house, even though it was (together with Ireland's stunning nature) the reason for this trip. But that only gives me one more reason to return to this absolutely beautiful country.
Now I even plan to study in Ireland and let me tell you, nothing would make me happier than studying there.
I love Ireland as much as I love Hozier's music.
If there's two things that I would recommend everybody to do is to go to a Hoziers concert and to travel to Ireland if you get the chance. Both are incredible and incomparable experiences that are definitely worth it and create memories and feelings you won't ever forget in your life.
"not to be crude" but i made an entire song about getting pegged what about it
P J oh but he did
P J in dinner and diatribes?
@@acadia8378 I think he did lol. If you listen to his songs, even the love ones, he is clearly a bottom(at least I think so lol, none of us really know for sure!) 😆 He made a song about oral sex because people assumed take me to church was about getting oral sex. So he said “challenge accepted” and made it a story about power or whatever lmao. But seriously, he seems to be pretty honest about what his songs are about, and I’m taking his word for this one. Musicians tell stories. This song seems to be just that.
@@acadia8378 He’s an interesting songwriter for sure
can you elaborate?
I am utterly CRUSHED that Moment's Silence and NFWMB are not on the album!
Yes they are! They're on the deluxe version on Spotify 😊 NFWMB is the 14th track and Moment's Silence is the 15th
@@anar.3360 I didn't know that! But they are not on the CD copy I got for ordering tickets for his concert :c
He's a shy guy, Bless. Explains and blushes. What a lovely unassuming man.
Songs like this is what I want all songs about sex to be like. It feels and sounds like worship
His vibe is just so good. Like I can definitely tell hes a sweet and kind person
The way he says "baby" is just gorgeous
*searches up how to become hoziers guitar*
I'm now really listening to the lyrics knowing the whole song is a metaphor for oral sex. How beautiful😏
Well... It was pointed out to me in a youtube comment that Hozier might be talking about his "you know what" in the song "It will come back". Now I know why to I always thought it would be the perfect song to do a striptease to an ex.
+Chrizelda Bernil yes I've seen that comment too and it's made me look at that song in a very different way lol
@@konstantinatoga4403 It's a better, sexier but also more profound way. Good poetry always expands and gives multiple dimensions to the subject.
IT WAS ABOUT BLOWJOBS AT CHURCH. I KNEW IT. I LOVE THIS MAN SO MUCH.
Ruth Ramírez he kind of said it wasnt tho?
I think for hosier,blowjobs ARE church.
A blowjobed church)
no, Take Me To Church is about Catholic oppression. Hozier is saying that people are free to interpret however they feel called but no, he did not write Take me To Church about oral sex, it's about sex as holy and the church being the knife that carves up the free and natural sexual human
Hozier: my soul escapes my body and floats to heaven when my gf goes down on me
Wlws/lesbians: HOLY SHIT YEAH EXACTLY
He's also making a comment on, as he says, the link between people in power and oral sex - as when it's misused as a means of granting opportunities or exerting dominance - "they do the deed we do through their deformity." Contrasting with an expression of pure sex and love.
Fuck that's deep damn and very erotic love it
That's not the lyric though. He says: "Those that would view the same we do through their deformity
Who view the deed as power's creed, as pure authority"
Can we just take a moment and respect that man's hands?
Seeing him live blew my mind and cracked my heart wide open. Of the 200 or so concerts I've been to this was top 10 for sure. See him if at all possible. You won't regret it.
I will be watching him perform two nights straight - concert then festival. Super excited! People have been saying his performance live is on a different level.
i saw him for the first time this year (though i’ve been a fan for years) and i was absolutely blown away. i’ll be seeing him from the pit in 2024 so freaking excited
I can listen to him humming all day~
holly crap the way he says blablabla melts my heart
Sometimes you get a poet and other times you get a musician.
He is both…..
he feels his songs…..he writes his poems into harmonies…..I bet he dreams oils on canvas and pretty lights.
I bet his muse is a gent breeze or thundering from the clouds.
He truly is breathing art.
And that voice…….Jesus Christ!
He’s just so, goodness, he’s just like, he’s so I just truly, Ugh. He’s full of light. He’s so sweet, you just can’t help but admire him in an endless number of ways.
Thank you to whoever it was who posted that interpretation. 🙏
Also, can we have a series where Hozier just recites the lyrics of his songs? His voice is so soothing to listen to. 💙
I need a cold shower every time I hear him speak.
He did a livestream of him reading poems. Have you seen it? I think it was on Tiktok, but I saw it on CZcams.
*After listening to this I have become omniscient.*
I would like to thank the incredibly wrong, yet unintentionally influential person, who wrote that Genius annotation (or 'tate) - your complete miss led to an amazing hit!
I saw him in Cologne two days ago and I have to say I'd put my mouth on him anytime. My dying wish would be to have him call me baby, I love how he says it. Or how he says anything. He's so magical.
HAHA girl... all of us...!
wow I didn't expect that metaphor..
Hozier's direct analysisof his songs really enlightens the listener's; while comparing and contrasting our interpretations against his. How "Well-Rounded" can an Artist be, when they engage, entertain, teach, and seduce their listener's through video, song, and concert. Hozier is much too young to be this skilled, gifted, intelligent, and charismatic. He figured everything out "before" age 30 (This year 2020); while Other Artist/Musician/Entertainer's take full, extended careers and lifetimes to figure out. I am really hoping that he gets rewarded with a few Grammy's for his phenomenal music and hard work. His youth allowed him to tour a whole year and six months of exhaustive venues; but remain stellar in his performance and craft. His bandmates are equally talented. I truly hope to attend one of his concerts during his next tour. Keep up the fantastic work Andrew💞.
You mean "worshipping like a dog at the shrine of her lies" wasn't a deliberate metaphor for oral sex? I thought it was the most thinly veiled reference and really informs the whole chorus of that song, from power dynamics in a sexual relationship to the church villainizing women's bodies.
Chrizelda Bernil I love your interpretation, please don’t abandon it
@@isisoliveira6796 Oh... so you're the Isis he sings about. I think he even surprises himself and might have subconsciously meant it. I can see how amused and glad he is that his songs are being given interpretations beyond his target meaning. As long as the interpretations are not in conflict with what he was trying to convey...
Chrizelda Bernil 😊😊
Chrizelda Bernil
i thought that line was about how he was only sleeping with her because the church was sort of forcing him to or else we wouldn’t have been accepted (because the song is about gay love and religion and such) and how she was feeding him “lies” while they’re together intimately. There’s a line, “my church offers no absolutes she tells me ‘worship in the bedroom’” so that was my interpretation I guess.
@@alexandriaking8544 I doubt it. I'm pretty sure Hozier's said he's straight. Take me to church is about the church's oppressive views on sex and sexuality in general. It focuses on gay people in some ways but it's not just about sexual orientation.
The 'worship in the bedroom' line is probably about the church being a shaming and controlling force and Hozier views having sex as better, a break from that. Additionally, that line equates sex and the woman he loves to praying/worshipping and god. The idea of worshipping in the bedroom is not part of the church, but rather a replacement and a counter to the church.
You have an interesting theory but I don't agree.
The way he plays with words and imagination...his mind...too powerful! ❤
0:21 the whole world should look this calm, green and pleasant.
Such a beautiful man
The way he got all shy explaining the song like a teenager being caught downloading “it” on illegal website. Just own it dude, its all said and done 😭😭😭
can we just take a moment to think about Hozier being one of the greatest lyricists of all time?
I THOUGHT I COULDNT LOVE HIM EVEN MORE THAN I WAS BOI I WAS WRONG
this is not a song , it is an experience
He honestly deserves more attention. He's amazing!
I'm in cardiovascular distress
Not gonna lie, I had no fucking idea what this song was about till I searched for interpretation. Good to know that my innocence is still present despite all the fanfics I’ve read.
wait so he saw a comment, realised something and made this song? i love him
He literally said, "you want a metaphor for oral sex, here you go."
Giving his fans what they want apparently.
Hozier is truly an amazing, kind, passionate, compassionate, empathetic, intelligent human.
I could listen to him all day.
omg he literally saw someone talking about oral sex and wrote a whole damn song about it
chaotic energy
His songs are a wonderful piece of art...
...Love Hozier so much.
How amazing when I get a notification on my device day after day of Hozier new video or interview after a long disappearance, I do really enjoy listening n watching u
Up there as one of my fave tracks Ahhhh
Thank you Forest Daddy 🙌🏼
soooo glad that amazing/talented Hozier is back !!!!!!!!!!!!!
The music is amazing, I love how this man can say things so beautifully.
I really like what he say about genius and how he never would determinate the meaning of his songs. It’s really important to absorb art and be capable of find a meaning witch fits us . In my opinion it’s all about this.( at the same time I really love when Hozier talk about his songs and express more clearly his feelings 💓, please don’t stop )
So beautiful!! how can so much beauty and talent go together in one person. This is a treasure.
I freaking LOVE this song. It's one of my absolute favorites!!!!
the verses and the melodies of Hozier they are greats
His voice is superb ! Oooh !
Chills...a foreplay by reflective ideation-it picks you up, wherever you stand, on the topography of sexual power dynamics, and moves you to a much richer part of the land. I guess this is true of all that he creates. He refers to it as subversion of expectations, but that’s very humble for the actual soul-enrichment he gives to the open observer. His music calls to mind, for me at least, “store up for yourselves treasures in heaven”
I hope someday soon that I can see you perform Hozier. Your voice and lyrics are out of this world! And the way you and the band play together is outstanding. You can see the way the music you conjure touches everything around you including yourself.
Yes, your channel is as magic as you are.... I love knowing what your poetry means to you.
You have such a unique sound I'm glad you're still making music keep up the good work. Keep pushing on keep getting inspired
More of this please
Hozier is a two different people when he talks and when he sings.
Love you and your music
even his hum’s sound immaculate
I knew there was a reason I liked this song so much
Please keep these coming, loved this!
He's inspired by such strange things... it's fascinating
Definitely hear the Booker T tones in this song! 💖
God damn Hozier! You're the man! Go for!!
I love you hozier❤
i love him omg he keeps blessing us!
the chorus is so great im gonna cry
Every time he puts out a new song, I wanna know they lyrics so bad. I absolutely love his lyrics and sound
Yes, I was waiting for this blessing
This man...
I will never be over this
Love this..
LOVE THIS SONG!!!
I genuinely believe that this man can't write a bad song
This is great
Love this song
It has the flavor of Smokestack lighting from Howlen wolf, I INSTANTLY WANTED TO EAT THIS SONG ITS THAT GOOD💜💜💜💜😍😍😍😍😍
I need a sing writing class with this man. Like, desperately.
The greatest poet of our time. The only artist who creates real Art.
"and the reason comes on the common tongue of your loving me"
wow that is not subtle in the slightest
*I LOVE YOU AND YOUR TALENT FOR GUITAR*
~ALL SONGS IS GREAT FOR ME~
thank god we have him
You are The best💕💕
love you so much❤️
