Hozier is mind blowing live. Literally sounds better live than on the albums. Plus, he a beautiful person - literally and figuratively.
I'm sooooo upset that I missed the tickets for the festival I just know it'd be amazing 😭
He gets this growl in his voice when he does It Will Come Back live? Maaaaannnnn 😩😩😩
I just know that song is AMAZING liveeee
wheb Be does that growling, I lose my shit. I want to touch His hair!
16:24 In a Week has a special place in my heart. I love that every now and then, we just get a spooky fairy tale, Like Real People Do is another one. Why can't "Normal" song premises be that interesting lol.

I love the way he takes known lore and takes it from a different POV. He did something similar with Francesca. To me, it seems that he was talking from the POV of Francesca's lover Paulo. He's saying that, while they're being punished for their "lust" he's fine with it. He loved her so much he'd do it again just to be put back in.
From Eden paints the snake, aka the devil, im a much more nuanced way than the bible sees him. Its tongue in cheek, sure, but it's also adding a voice to someone who doesnt get one in the original story. Kinda like he did in Francesca
I totally have the same vision for Work Song! I also see talking about the two different versions of work. I get the same imagery you do, but also him talking about the work him and his partner put in to make their relationship as strong as it is. That their love is deep because they keep choosing each other without judgement. That might be a reach but damn it I love that song!
He did a slower, more acoustic version of From Eden when I saw him live, and there was something so tender about it? Like you could really feel his care and love towards this more innocent person, and his like, regret towards knowing he'll be a corrupting influence, but still his desire to get closer to them. While I've always liked the song, hearing that version of it live gave it a whole new life for me and it's one of my favorites now. I'm pretty sure there's a recording of it on CZcams!
Love the reaction!
Going to find that recording on right now!!!
The most recent version in Austin is the one I saw, but the version at the Sacramento Memorial Auditorium is another great slower version!
Every single time you said “idk if you guys know what I’m saying” I knew EXACTLY what you were saying!! The chorus in Work Song makes me go absolutely feral every damn time
Someone New is kinda literal, & the audacity of the 1st line "Go take this the wrong way" addressing presumably his girl confronting him about his wandering eye. Look up the verse because they are highly quotable & delicious to sing & say.... oh & the lowkey shade to Aretha too with the reference to her signature song "I Say a Lil Payer", it's Hozier at his most fuckboi. Cuz he does have those songs too besides love & devotion.
Wait I didn't even notice the Aretha thing😭
I’ve never seen any of your videos but I love Hozier so I decided to give it a watch. Love your reactions and commentary!
Ahhhh I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, hopefully you'll continue to watch the journey!!
I still cant figure out what album is best. Wasteland baby was the first one i listened to all the way through and immediately went to this one. Also your calling out work song as a... work song (like a sea shanty) was spot on. He starts the verses adressing the "boys" and telling them whats keeping him going. I enjoyed your take on the "ugly but clean" line in cherry wine also. I hadnt gone there before but you are 100% i think.
It felt like saying the frozen song was crazy but it's all I could come up with in a split second, and Cherry Wine is so gut punch but beautiful song to me
@@angelwood886 I'm so excited to see your take on the other album. It's all good
i actually love this video so much. not only do you provide hilarious commentary, it’s so satisfying to see you actually *get* the meaning of the songs. as a hozier fan, it’s so refreshing to see someone look deeper into his work and do more than surface level analysis. like, when you said that maybe hozier was talking to the other workers in work song, i was so excited because that’s how i interpreted it too! anyway i’m really excited for your wasteland video because wasteland baby is my favorite album. have a good day!
Would love to see you continue reacting to Hozier's discography it's good stuff.. but also I would love to see you react to Chappell Roan...shes soooo good!!!
I hadve one mroe Hozier album to do, but I was thinking about doing Chappell Roan ever since I heard a snippet of her HOT TO GO song, this might be the confirmation 🤭
Please your reactions are so wonderful 😭you had me WHEEZING ily!!!! ❤
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video 😭🫶🏾 ilyyyyy
She’s so much smarter than she gives herself credit for
Literallyyy she got so much right!
Yeah, Cherry Wine is SUCH a beautiful song...but such a gut punch as well!
Sorry im spamming the shit out of your comment section but girl you need to give yourself more credit! You've been on it the whole time. Love that you're liking his work so much ☺️
Noooo never apologize for the spamming, I love itttt
If you like Hozier's style of songwriting, please check out Noah Kahan! His lyrics hit DEEP
This mans pen game is absurd
There's a 3 song EP attached to this album. Check it out.
hes also got abt 10ish singles that were not put out in albums if you wanna give them a listen
I did not know that, I absolutely have to listen to them
omg you are so damn cute. Love Hozier, love you
You were spot on with your interpretation of foreigners god! I think the website youre using to look up lyrics and meaning isnt that good
I thought I was going so far into left field 😭, and that website definitely sucks I think I'm going to start trying to find interviews from him instead.
@@angelwood886 oh definitely do that for empire now bc that one is out of pocket lol. in a good way
Oh, shit.
So you've experienced the greatest written album in modern music.
OMG NO I MISSED THE DROP- i was snoozing ngl- BUT OMG ITS HEEEREE
Edit: i was gonna try and find something about jackie and wilson for you but its all other people’s Interpretations of it, so like….🧍
Edit 2: From eden is so good🙏 and yeah they were in the garden before eve ate the forbidden fruit and convinced adam to also eat of it and that’s when they got cast from the garden
Edit: foreiner’s god is about colonization and forcing religion on the people of that region so yeah you were right about that (this is like the collective interpretation of the song)
Edit 4: i love run, its my favorite in this album along with sedated- wastland baby is my FAVORITE album ever- if you do check itnout please do the special version because it has a new favorite song of mine and it just🙏 its so good. The album is like about the world ending so keep that in mind if you do.
It’s okayyyyy we all need a good snooze every now and then, and I knew I was kinda right on foreigners god but once I remembered the woman from the beginning I thought I’d lost the plot 😞, and Album about the world ending…. Noted 🥲
