    Lyrics:
    Babe, there's something tragic about you
    Something so magic about you
    Don't you agree
    Babe, there's something lonesome about you
    Something so wholesome about you
    Get closer to me...
    No tired sigh, no rolling eyes, no irony
    No 'who cares', no vacant stare, no time for me
    Chorus:
    Honey you're familiar
    Like my mirror years ago
    Idealism sits in prison,
    Chivalry fell on his sword
    Innocence died screaming,
    Honey, ask me, I should know
    I slithered here from Eden
    Just to sit outside your door.
    Babe, there's something wretched about this,
    Something so precious about this,
    Where to begin?
    Babe, there's something broken about this,
    But I might be hoping about this,
    Oh what a sin.
    To the strand, a picnic planned for you and me
    A rope in hand, for your other man
    To hang from a tree
    Chorus:
    Honey you're familiar
    Like my mirror years ago
    Idealism sits in prison,
    Chivalry fell on his sword
    Innocence died screaming,
    Honey, ask me, I should know
    I slithered here from Eden
    Just to hide outside your door

    Man, Hozier really milked that drunken conversation with Crowley!
    All jokes aside, I think this song is absolutely marvelous. The lyrics, the melody, the vibe... it has such a sadness to it, and yet it also has a certain lightness - like when you find solace in giving up hope... I don’t know if you know what I mean...
    anyways, this song will always occupy a special place in my heart, it’ll never not be gold

    This song doesn't make me feel sad, just, like, heavy. Like I'm really here and not just an abstract thought. It's grounding, but also ethereal and it really helps me.

      Yes. I understand. The first few notes stir a deeeeep pain inside of my, but by the time the chorus comes in so powerfully, like a wave of water on the ocean it just smoooooths the sand it mixes with. I remember listening to this when it came out, and I had just decided I wanted a divorce from my husband. Life should have been chaotic, but certain tracks like this one just crammed their way into my skull, reverberating, forevermore, moving me along like water and sand. Grounding and ephemeral all at once.

    My favorite thing about Hozier's music is how interpretative it is. So many say this song is sad, and I can see that, but when I first and continue to hear it, to me its about someone who falls in love with someone unconventional tbat is going through a rough time, likely something the singer has experienced in the past. Yet, the singer loves the person so much that they are willing to leave the easygoing-ness of their current life to be there for this person and be with them.

    • @Fallowsthorn
      @Fallowsthorn 2 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      You hit the nail on the head when you said "interpretative" - I was surprised to see people think this song is sad and your interpretation hadn't occurred to me, either. To me it sounds like the singer escaped from a toxic situation (the lowest-hanging fruit being some sort of repressive religious community, which is rather a theme for Hozier), and has since found freedom and validation in being and doing the things that community looked down on regardless of imposed morality. He's acting as the tempter waiting for the listener to realize they're trapped in the same or similar situation and to help them be a happier, less inhibited version of themself.
      ...Not to say that the singer's way is inherently better. He's jealous and possessive ("a rope in hand / for your other man / to hang from a tree") and at least metaphorically violent ("innocence died screaming / honey, ask me, I should know"). But he certainly doesn't feel guilty about it.

      I couldn't agree more. I see this song as a sweet song as he said I slithered from Eden just to sit outside of your door. There's really something about the girl that he couldn't think of the good things and doesn't care abt it just to be with his love.

      I thought it was the desperate-longing-happy feeling of being in love. Wanting and doing so much just to be around the person and yet in the end doing only just that. Probably because that's how I love. Dedicating everything to that one person but never really telling them it was all for them. Just hoping I've put enough love in whatever it was that they'll be able to recognize.

      Love, storytelling is part of the Irish DNA. From the Olde Celtic Bards who had to dedicate years to learn the craft of reciting poems and stories of the Clan, there are centuries of practice in place when it comes to writing and telling stories. From playwrights to poets to musicians Ireland produces loads for a small nation.

      @@yourheartinminedrumming It's not racist or referring to suicide. The song is from the perspective of Lucifer/the serpent in the Garden of Eden talking to Eve. He wants Eve for himself. The "other man" he's referring to is Adam, saying he wants Adam to be dead and out of the picture so they can be together.
      It's also a reference to the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, since by eating from the tree, Adam (and Eve) doomed humanity to sin, and consequently death. So in a sense, the tree did lead to their death, symbolically "hanging" from the tree (also like the fruit that they ate.) There's a lot of symbolism at play.

    OKAY here’s my hot take on how I like to think of this song: Satan (the serpent) falling in love with Eve, in the first verse it seems innocent and lovely but then in the second verse it starts to reveal itself as being more on the evil side. And like he could be saying “honey you’re familiar like my mirror years ago” like he reminds her of how he used to be this brilliant angel before he fell. Just something fun to think about 😊

    He's bad (the only thing that 'slithered' in Eden was the devil), and is saying that there are no good people left anymore anyway.
    This song really hits home for me.

    It's 2018.. In the era of EDMs, Hip-hop, rap and all, here I am still listening to this almost 5 year old song on repeat.
    Hozier is really an artist. No other artist has been so expressive in the past decade.
    His Meaningful lyrics, overwhelming music and above all, soul touching voice are really artistic and exceptional.
    His songs will always be one of the best in the playlists.
    Cheers to his music !!✌️✌️

    • @JasonGastrich
      @JasonGastrich 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Matthew John Pace Take Me to Church is a horrible song. It's hard to understand why anyone likes it. No lead guitar. No bass. No drums. Vocals are droning. Lyrics aren't that clever. It's just a dumb, poorly written song. I was pleasantly surprised to hear From Eden because I thought every song Hozier plays sucks based on the one song the radio plays.

    • @matthewpace3434
      @matthewpace3434 10 ปีที่แล้ว +49

      IMO take me to the church has a dark, deep meaning and it's my favourite song right now. But I respect your opinion.

    • @JasonGastrich
      @JasonGastrich 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Matthew John Pace I've played guitar for 20 years and I can play more than a dozen instruments. I taught music lessons for a decade. The only things I find redeeming in this song are Hozier's disenchantment with church and infatuation with a woman.
      I am also part Irish, fwiw. Part of the reason why I'm sick of it is because Alt 98.7 FM and KROQ 106.7 FM have overplayed it. They haven't played even one of his other songs, even though songs like From Eden are newer.
      It takes a lot to impress me musically. In other words, if there are only vocals at the expense of the other instruments (that I now know they have), they better be off the chart and still I like a full band of instruments to keep me interested.

It's about a man that has done bad things in his life and meets a girl who is innocent and pure "like his mirror years ago" and he wishes to be with her but she is in a relationship with another man. Though you can percieve the song however you wish, that's the beauty of music.

    It's been some years now since the divorce. I still bear an incredible sense of pain and this song conjures that in such a profound way. I had this album playing continuous on my drives to and from work, Hozier my bard before and during the most troubling, disruptive parts of my life--my love leaving me, forcing me to leave, the love I had for her usurped by woe and misery. Now when I hear this sweet song it fills me with that nostalgic feeling, a sort of sweet pain for something that was before, that thing that is lost and will never be again. I listen to this song and wonder if there will ever be another that is fair, another darling of my affections. A part of me supposes it will simply never be so.

      Yep. I'm honestly very thankful for the Good Omens fandom which introduced me to Hozier. Not sure how I missed his music. It's gorgeous.

    I'm here because I've just read a fanfiction on good omens and in the final notes it said that the title was from this song, with a link to it, and I'M HAPPY.

    Makes me feel kinda nostalgic and at home, if that makes any sense. In a society where everything is fast and there's deadlines everywhere, songs like this one make the world spin a bit slower at least for just a few minutes :)
