    the original feels like when you’re asking someone out for the first time and you’re terrified of what they’re going to say. this version feels like when that romance has ended and you’re wondering if they still think about you the way you do about them. because to you they’ll always be comfort.

    I genuinely feel Hozier has the best male voice in the business at the moment. It's so powerful, full of range, its soulful, sincere, full of a rhythm, a flow, its hard hitting, beautiful and he gives it his all everytime even when it looks like he is not trying.

    Original: Drunk confessions, meaningless one night stand turned into one sided romance, sipping a drink while staring at someone from the other side of the bar
    Hozier’s cover: The fear of ruining the long-term friendship because of newly developed feelings, yearning, heartbreak, and sadness
    This cover definitely demonstrates the REAL meaning behind the lyrics. The original covers up the tone using cool guitar riffs and bass but Hozier really made me realize how emotional these lyrics are when they’re stripped of that. Hearing them raw does something to me.

    Original feels like you are swallowed by the void, depression and absolute apathy, indifference to everything.

      The same song, the same lyrics but completely different perspectives on dealing with unrequited love. The original feels more like the singer can't even admit to himself the level of rejection and loss he's enduring. Whereas this version strikes me as though he's completely and painfully aware of what he can't change but he still holds to hope anyway, which to me translates as tragically beautiful. Who doesn't know the ache of longing and despair, the knowledge that that release will never come the way you want it to but you hold on anyway. Hoping against hope to be the exception to the rule.

      * that person will find someone else
      * you look like a wishy washy coward
      * you only stay as their friend because of the chance you may be able to get in their pants?? gross
      * you waste the best years of your life on hypotheticals
      * you will continue to suffer internally
      perks of sharing your feelings:
      * you may be able to make something of it (a relationship)
      * you can learn to accept the rejection and move on with your life
      * no more wasting time on feelings that aren’t mutual

    Lyrics:
    [Verse 1]
    Have you got colour in your cheeks?
    Do you ever get that fear that you can't shift the type
    That sticks around like summat in your teeth?
    Are there some aces up your sleeve?
    Have you no idea that you're in deep?
    I've dreamt about you nearly every night this week
    How many secrets can you keep?
    'Cause there's this tune I found
    That makes me think of you somehow an' I play it on repeat
    Until I fall asleep, spillin' drinks on my settee
    [Pre-Chorus]
    (Do I wanna know?) If this feelin' flows both ways?
    (Sad to see you go) Was sorta hopin' that you’d stay
    (Darling, we both know) That the nights were mainly made
    For sayin' things that you can't say tomorrow day
    [Chorus]
    Crawlin' back to you
    Ever thought of callin' when
    You've had a few?
    'Cause I always do
    Maybe I'm too
    Busy bein' yours
    To fall for somebody new
    Now, I've thought it through
    Crawlin' back to you
    [Pre-Chorus]
    (Do I wanna know?) If this feelin' flows both ways?
    (Sad to see you go) Was sorta hopin' that you’d stay
    (Darling, we both know) That the nights were mainly made
    For sayin' things that you can't say tomorrow day
    [Chorus]
    Crawlin' back to you (Crawlin' back to you)
    Ever thought of callin' when
    You've had a few? (Had a few)
    'Cause I always do ('Cause I always do)
    Maybe I'm too (Maybe I’m too busy)
    Busy bein' yours (Bein' yours)
    To fall for somebody new
    Now, I've thought it through
    Crawlin' back to you (2x)

    Hozier’s really good at conveying emotion especially emotions when they’re conflicting and hard to express.
    At least to me, This cover seems less depressing and more “I love you so much, it hurts me”.
    It’s yearning and tender and helpless and definitely somber but it’s the kind of heartache that you get when you’re full of emotion, not devoid of it. Y’know???

    The look on his face at 2:27 as hes just playing and listening to the backup singers... always makes my heart tingle

    I’m ngl this version makes me appreciate Alex’s insanely good lyricism even more than the original. He and Hozier are the best in that area.

    This cover is so moving. This is how covers should be done. So many times people cover a song and they play it like the original artist plays it.... covers are an opportunity to see the music and the lyrics in a different light. Hozier gets it. 😍🔥

    Hearing this song, sung by Hozier, hits different in your thrities.

    Hozier making us feel things that we tried so hard to conceal. Damn.

    I'm convinced that Hozier and his backup singers and musicians are all angels
