Lyrics:
Do you think I’d give up
That this might’ve shook the love from me
Or that I was on the brink
How could you think darling I’d scare so easily?
Now that it’s done
There’s not one thing that I would change
My life was a storm
Since I was born
How could I fear any hurricane?
If someone asked me at the end
I’d tell them put me back in it
Darling, I would do it again
If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I’d go through it again
I would still be surprised I could find you, darling
In any life
If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I would do it again
For all that was said
Of where we’d end up at the end of it
When the heart would cease
Ours never knew peace
What good would it be on the far side of things?
It was too soon
When that part of you was ripped away
A grip taking hold
Like a cancer that grows
Each piece of your body that it takes
Though I know my heart would break
I’d tell them put me back in it
Darling, I would do it again
If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I’d go through it again
I would still be surprised I could find you darling
In any life
If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I would do it again
I would not change it each time,
Heaven is not fit to house a love
Like you and I
I would not change it each time,
Heaven is not fit to house a love
Like you and I
I would not change it each time,
Heaven is not fit to house a love
Like you and I

#Hozier #Francesca #UnrealUnearth
I didn't think I'd have a favourite lyric other than "no grave can hold my body down, I'd crawl home to her." But "heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I" has altered my brain chemistry. Listening to this song isn't enough. I want it injected in my veins
I’m right here with you on this one.
Where's the first lyric from? Is it his?
@@MariaHossain It's from Work song
Can only agree 10000000% with you 😭
Omg totally agree!!!
What I love about this song's incredible artistry is that Hoizer based it on a real-life tragic love affair. Francesca da Rimini (d. 1283-1286), was married to Giovanni Malatesta ("The Lame"), but had a decade-long relationship with his younger brother, Paolo. Giovanni found out and killed them both. Dante knew of the lovers from Francesca's nephew and put them in his "Inferno." Thus, Hozier's song is probably from the perspective of Paolo, who extols his undying love for her, consequences be damned.
i love you for this
Thanks. You should check out Honor Luca's analysis of "Francesca." She explains the historical love affair, Dante's opinion in "Inferno," and how she believes Hozier challenges the poet's interpretation of Francesca and her 'sinful' love for Paolo.
@@rebekahvaught2747 oh I'm definitely going to go down that rabbit hole today haha! I'm consistently in awe of how Andrew takes these creative stances on classic/traditional narratives. with this song the instinct is to think "oh he clearly had an intense love for someone called Francesca at some point', but it's always something much more than that, and i admire that greatly about him; truly an artist in every sense of the word, almost makes me a bit jealous sometimes LMAO
It's impressive (and sexy 😉) how well-read he is. Listening to him talk about his interests and creative progress, you get the sense that he's one of the most intelligent people you could hope to meet. He doesn't mind being intense but does it in a non-toxic way. Does that make sense? Lol, I feel like you could debate him, and he would defend his position without being patronizing.
@@rebekahvaught2747 Smart really is the new "Sexy." It's from Sherlock, in case you wondered.
I'll just leave this comment here so that when someone likes or reacted to this comment I'll be reminded of this MASTERPIECE!
Let's gooo
❤
Just a reminder to start June with Hozier ❤
August is here come here and listen
Seeing it live was absolute HEAVEN✨
I can hear his Irish accent in this one and it adds another layer to his voice he is a true artist
The Irish are an endangered species, as are all Europeans. He should be singing about that authentic tragedy not some tortured, esoteric, meaningless nonsense. Great song though.
I feel like his accent comes through a lot more on this album and it makes me so happy
@joanneanderson4190def from Ireland, wicklow
Each album his accent gets more pronounced.
@joanneanderson4190born and bred paddy
Something about the way he sings " put me back in it", so forceful , makes this song so powerful
ESPECIALLY in that one live performance of "Francesca"!! that moment where you can see even Andrew himself being hit with emotions lives in my head rent-free, it's so beautifully raw. this song is definitely one of my favourites so far.
I cried! 😭😭😭😭
@@sincerelyparand Do you have the name or maybe can you share link of that performance?
Yes!!! That’s the part I keep getting stuck in my head.
It sounds like MHB's channelling a hungry Gaelic-footballer's desire to give the lyric a bang!! at that point
"If I could hold you for a minute, darling, I would do it again" it's just so painful and devastatingly beautiful, Hozier invented yearning when he wrote this song.
he’s a lyrical genius ❤
Yes
@la🎉urxoxx
Goodbye
I didn't think he could come up with anything more painfully romantic than Work Song or In a Week but bloody hell, this is heart wrenching. I can't stop listening and I'm so excited for the album.
Movement, would that I, cherry wine, and shrike are all songs about love. But this one really takes it.
Wait til you read the poetry piece the lyrics are taking from
@@asrahelena8632what's the name of it please??
@@monch2277 it's the V (fifth) Canto from Dante's Inferno
@@monch2277 Honor Luca has a great video talking about this song and its inspiration as well
“My life was a storm, since I was born
How could I fear any hurricane?”
I feel these lyrics in my bones. They bring up all the emotions that I have been holding in. To be able to do that, I truly do believe that Andrew you are a genius.
I want this to be permanently on a loop on my head...
Luckily TH-cam has a loop function now
But "Someone New" always best Hozier song
Defo a contender @@GonzaloMartinez-tc9uk but I am partial to Shrike and Cherry Wine
This song is scarily addictive right now!!
Work Song by Hozier is the best one ! 👌🏻
"i'd tell them put me back in it"
the POWER behind this mans voice. and yet in all his interviews he's so gentle. what a man.
My God. So much to say, but I feel like we're seeing a full lean into Hozier's own personal style. The storm raging outside pays homage to the song. The scene inside is dirty, gritty, animalistic, raw, cathartic, and builds into a perfect storm of voices for Dante's lovers to swirl around forever in. Absolutely gorgeous video.
You said that beautifully. Much love. 🤍
That description, while listening to that very mix of voices right now, is giving me chills
couldn't have described it better myself
I got you
Everyone love him
This song gives me Cranberries vibes in the best way possible, what a work of art. Hozier simply does not miss
Yes! I keep feeling like I'm being transported to the 90s - but I couldn't pin point the band. The music style as well
Yes!! THIS ❤
exactly what i was thinking when i first heard it!
Omg, yes, i was tryna figure out how familiar it felt, the part that says "in any life" 😭imma listen to it again
i tell them put me back in "AHHHHHHHH" and the ZOOOOOMBIEEESSSS part from the cranberries song really mesh.
i'm SO ecstatic for this music video. this album so far (and it's not even fully out yet!) has been incredibly helpful for my peace of mind at this point in my life. i recently became disabled and nearly bedridden, and this song has REALLY helped me to not feel like a burden to my fiance
Hang in there ❤
I wasn't able to accept my disabled body at 25 now I'm 51.If I could with love, give my best advice to you accept &( love your body) as it is,fight like hell & never forget you are NOT a burden to those that choose to LOVE you ✌️🧠💕🤗👍
I am in similar circumstance but with my sister not a fiance. I regularly break down about it. Finding solace is hard but I hope you continue finding it.
❤❤❤❤❤
Your not a burden to anyone rid your mind of that thought and enjoy each day. I'm not saying this without empathy so pls don't be offended I am not trying to tell you what to think as I'm not in your position obviously. Please enjoy your life you can't stay here miserable wasting it most of the time we have regrets over not enjoying the time we had I got diagnosed with cancer which I've managed to beat for 9 years now it could have possibly come back and all I can think about is why didn't I travel more and enjoy my life more I'm angry with myself for not realising life doesn't have to be perfect to enjoy it you just have to be alive and have some fair circumstances. To all the people who dont have those circumstances may there pls come a day when they can look back and know they are in a better place alive and living each day with joy
how can a song be so healing and heartbreaking at the same time
That is precisely his Alchemy! He has this extraordinary power to sublimate the deepest pain into a healing balm that can be soothing and often even ecstatically sweet! I’m in awe of his magical talent! Who else can do this?!! What other artist has ever had the power to heal my deepest wounds with such a beautiful buzz?! Even if I was merely reading his lyrics it would have this effect but then he has this VOICE! He is a singular soul!! The quality of my daily life has improved greatly since I first heard his music ten and a half years ago! Absolutely phenomenal!
Hozier is a literary genius. His songs must be written down in textbooks, learnt by heart, recited during gatherings, thought upon on rainy days and ugly cried during the darkness of the nights.
Na początku było słowo... Hozier ceni ten dar .. To moje osobiste odczucie .To nie słowa rzucone na tzw. wiatr
@@laurakubiak4507...yes, these are not words thrown into the wind. Rather they are words thrown straight at us. Beautiful beautiful song .. Francesca
This was poetic
Oh that the current educational system makes no room to study the brains of genius' such as Hozier. He is such a gift.
beautifully said❤
The last minute is so fucking amazing. Literally sounds like what you’d hear when you make it to heaven and your loved ones and past pets are at the gates welcoming you.
I'm passing through the hurricane....or the storms, eye of the hurricane.
@@derekprospero.. please don't tell ppl how they should talk. You understand the comment well enough.
@@derekprosperoit’s the correct usage of the word. They’re not speaking figuratively, to them this is actually what heaven would sound like when entering.
I was just telling a friend it feels like being caught between Heaven and Hell.
The last minute lyrics is
Heaving is not fit to house a love like you and I
Meaning their kind of love is forbidden into the so called Heavens.
My brother just lost his battle with cancer and life has been heartbreaking. All of Hozier’s new songs (and his old ones too) have been so therapeutic for me these past months. Francesca turns me into an absolute puddle, but gives me hope at the same time. I’m so thankful for you, Andrew 🫶🏻 thank you for sharing your talent with all of us and for getting us through some tough times in our lives. You are a bigger deal than you know!
It is incredible how music can be so universally touching. Wishing you strength ❤
Hozier saved me after the death of husband from cancer in 2015....Sending you strength and love!❤❤❤❤
Please accept my condolences. Death is such a lonely, frightening, horribly sad for those left behind. It seems as if the world should stop. I hope you will be able to enjoy happy times soon. Be well. Take care.
Lost my mum to cancer when I was 18. "Like a cancer grows, each piece of your body it takes." Sunk my stomach. And, "If I could hold you for a minute, I'd do it again." Makes me cry. I'm 20 now. 2 years without a mother's love and it's really difficult. I can't imagine with your brother. Siblings feel like another part of you so having that ripped away, I can't imagine. I'm so sorry for your loss. I wish you so much happiness. It's kinda lovely to see all the family members of cancer victims getting comfort and bonding from this song. Fck cancer.
So much love to you through your grief journey. 💜

That this might've shook the love from me

If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I would do it again, ah, ah
I would not change it each time (I would not change it each time)
Heaven is not fit to house a love (Heaven is not fit to house a love)
Like you and I (like you and I)
I would not change it each time (I would not change it each time)
Heaven is not fit to house a love (Heaven is not fit to house a love)
Like you and I (like you and I)
I would not change it each time (I would not change it each time)
Heaven is not fit to house a love (Heaven is not fit to house a love)
Like you and I (like you and I)
Thank you for these beautiful lyrics - bringing more depth of longing and love for this song…
💖🙏🎶🔥💫
❤
❤
Thank you!
Thank you so much. Now I need to paste and copy.❤
I feel like Hozier's music comes out every time I am feeling down or overwhelmed. And each time his songs become my only companion. Crying to his songs, singing along as loudly as I can, or just sitting under the shower, his songs have never stopped accompanying me.
I have the same experience during the 9 years Ive known of him
Aside from the obvious historical and literary references, I just realized that the song can also apply to queer couples.
With how same-sex relationships are considered as a "sin" in most religions, the lines can be related to a queer couple forcefully separated (and/or killed) by society's heteronormative views.
"Though I know my heart would break, I'd tell them put me back in it", "I'd go through it again" and "I would not change it each time" - their love for each other is so deep and strong that they'd go through it all over again, bear the pain of homophobia/transphobia, just to be with their lover
And of course, the most beautiful line - "Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I" - can be referenced to how queer couples are constantly cursed to "go to hell" for their "sin", so the couple retaliates by:
1. Accepting hell as more fitting for their love, which is an ironical mockery of Heaven as lesser than the grand splendor it is made out to be by religious fanatics, therefore showing the falsehoods of religious extremists
Or
2. Their love is not "sin" at all and is so blessed and passionate that Heaven itself says It is not worthy to house such a love, i.e., their love lies somewhere even beyond the Heavens
Either way, I'm just starting to appreciate the layers of depth in Hozier's works
Comment needs to be studied
Hozier our literary king at work here
He's super aware of the world we're living in and the brutality of it all, he's someone who actually cares, it's really hard to find an artist like him nowadays ❤
This. This is music. This needs to be what we hear on the radio. It's meaningful, it's poetic, it's high quality. It's music
I personally believe that the best songs have the ability to send chills through the body. They’re few and far between but this is one of them
Our own broadcasters don't give Irish artist much airtime and there are really great ones out there
seeing this song preformed live healed me of anything wrong ever and broke me at the same time chills the entire time
when i’m telling you this is one if not the best love song i’ve ever heard ? how tf does hozier create these songs with so much power and beauty and heartbreak and feeling in them ? he’s like a wizard i swear
Hey queen! Girl, you have done it again. Constantly raising the bar for us all and doing it flawlessly. I’d say I’m surprised, but I know who you are.
…I’ve seen it up close and personal. Girl you make me so proud. And I love you.”
Every Hozier album has been released during a different era of my life and I can already feel that Unreal, Unearth is going to be just as crucial to my life as Wasteland, Baby! and the Self Titled album were.
“Do you think I’d give up, that this might have shook the love from me” #bpd
“But it was too soon when that part of you was ripped away” #trauma
Now that I think about it, the same is true for me too. Holy shit
His music helped me to feel again after a devastating loss. I hadn’t even realized I’d closed off so much until I listened to the first LP.
Very well said, I feel the same way in my own life. Each album has come out during a shift in my life, and it brings me back to those times (in a comforting way). And here I am again, in a period of personal change; so I am very much looking forward to Unreal, Unearth.
"If I could love you for a minute, I'd go through it again" had me bawling in my car. Kudos to him for being such a literate, illustrative storyteller.
If I ever go to a Hozier concert I'd just ugly cry and sing the whole time.
That was me on Sunday hearing this song live.
i think about this all the time 😭
This makes me think of my late fiancé. Even knowing all the pain that would come at the end I would go through it all again just to hold him once more
I'm so sorry for your loss. I can only imagine your pain. I hope that you're doing okay.
Same thing to me but we were married and he died of complications with his heart in 2020, he was my childhood best friend and we were just married for 2 years. It's been 4 years and i'm dating someone and I still remember him and love him
It’s simple but so effective. HE HITS IT OUTTA THE PARK EVERY TIME😭😭😭
My middle son died in my womb 10 days before his due date. No song is about "romantic" love anymore, but I heal especially when I listen to Hozier. His lyrics are genial, like a balm on my broken heart...
💛💛💛🦋
I'm so sorry for your loss, truly. From the bottom of my soul I wish you all the healing and peace this life has to offer. I hope that your life is beautiful.🌻🤍🌈💐
@@katharinas9854 Thank you so much! I gave birth to twins a year after, and even though no baby can replace the one that was before, their bubbly personalities made so many new lovely memories.
May his memory be a blessing and may Hozier continue to be a source of comfort, love, and strength for you
@@netovisnica❤❤❤
I hope Andrew knows the depth of his soul-crushing and heart-soaring poetic lyricism because by god, I am stunned to speechlessness at the sheer beauty of his writing and emotion every single time he releases anything
One of the best outros to a song I've heard in decades - what a masterful performance
I LOVE when Hozier does rock!! This so easily could be a Cranberries song, stylistically, lyrically. And with his voice!! What a class act Hozier, you're a genius 👏
Art is how we decorate space, music is how we decorate time ❤️
❤
i cannot express how close to my heart this song hits, i have not heard ONE song out of this mans mouth that i havent fallen in love with.
i would do ANYTHING to see him live
Unreal Unearth is going to destroy me in the best way
I’m so excited hope you guys all have an amazing day wherever you are and you all know you are loved and appreciated even when you don’t feel like it or feel like you don’t deserve it. Y’all are beautiful wonderful people ❤
He is such a beautiful being. Although it is sometimes inevitable for someone with as much sensitivity as him, I pray he never feels unloved
The fact that this was written with someone in mind shatters me to my core. Oh to be loved by Hozier
I like how the final chorus of "Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and mine" sounds like an actual angelic choir.
I tear up everytime I hear this song. The lyrics are so beautiful along with Hozier’s amazing voice, my heart can’t take it. 🥹❤️
the yearning i feel to just be in that room as they play this song forever
Most of all, the level of consciousness of the community that Hozier was able to create around himself is striking. It's like moths searching for light around a lantern.
Every time I listen to Andrew's voice, since his first and second albums came out, he pours out his emotions through his lyrics. You feel overwhelmed with so much going on in the world that you just want to pause and hit play to let his songs saturate your heart, mind, and soul. I hope his 3rd album will take the world by storm when it's released soon. God bless you, Andrew, and thank you for bringing the wonderful vocal talent to our ears. Truly amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Absolutely obsessed with this song, in fact I've started reading Dante's divine comedy. The power that hozier has over me is insane
How is it? I want to read it too but I’m very low income and have to make sure I’ll be able to get through it. I have a book in old English about pirates and I love it but it’s kinda hard to read with the language difference.
@@gelflingmama I am still reading and yes, it's definitely not a fast read. but it's easier than old english depending on the translation u read. I am reading the translation by Henry Longfellow. His translation is quite modern but as i do not know Italian, I'm not sure how faithful longfellow is to the original. I've not bought the book but borrowed it from the library. You can do the same if there are libraries near you or give ebook a chance.
After reading all of the comments, all I can say is, exactly!
What's wrong with you? Do you have to be this GOOD?
All I can do for a couple of days is cry over this masterpiece.
Since I first heard this song I've so desperately wanted to hear a version with him and Florence Welch singing together. The huge orchestral bits reminds me so much of "Too Much is Never Enough" from the FF15 soundtrack and I think hearing the addition of her voice through out the song would be incredible.
This song is nothing but the thoughts of people - made into a beautiful melody- who've lost their loved ones.
It's heartbreaking but you can't really help yourself from playing it again and again. Hoping, maybe, listening to it might send out a message to the universe, to your lost-loved ones, that they are being missed, that they never faded from your memories.
Let’s talk about Francesca!
Francesca da Rimini or Francesca da Polenta was a medieval noblewoman of Ravenna.
She fell in love with Paolo, the younger brother of her old and deformed husband Giovanni, who she had married as part of a political strategy only.
Enraged at their betrayal, Giovanni slew both Paolo and Francesca where they laid.
In Inferno, Dante and Virgil meet Francesca and her lover Paolo in the second circle of hell, reserved for the lustful.
Very Hozier of them 🥺
I am absolutely in love with it! What do you all think about it? 🤎
Francesca and Paolo would love this
The part with the dino plushie sitting by the guitar amp was so cute and unexpecting.
@ 3:34
When he says "Do you think I'd give up"... I melt
This song .. this man.. gives me hope for humanity . Thank you for such an incredible journey with you Hozier .. the love, energy and brilliance you pour into your art is simply life giving … I am so grateful for you and the chance to hear this magic! My daughter says to hear hoziers voice is like your eardrums being kissed .. I agree 💖 please keep creating
My best friend passed Friday night...I think this song fits
Sorry for your loss ❤
"Heaven is not fit to house a love, like you and I"....gosh these beautiful lyrics😭
thank you for writing such morbidly, tragically, beautiful music. your music has helped me deal with my grief and i cannot thank you enough ❤
I love the chaotic editing and cinematography during the chorus! All of the whirling glimpses and flashes of light really feel to me like being in a hurricane. And the band looks great! It's nice to see everyone get some screen time ❤
"heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I" I AM GOING TO SCREAM
i love this man’s brain. his lyrics honestly make my soul light up.
Omg i love him so much 🥺❤️
Decades and decades of brilliant songs by various bands and artists and yet this song has captured my heart in a different way.
This is extremely fitting to Patroclus and Achilles's love story :')) especially from Patroclus's perspective, god it's so perfect
This song is so moving. I’m currently bawling my eyes out thinking about the love of my life and how i just simply want him to hold me. we have been through so much together and he still chooses me everyday. he is such a beautiful soul and every love song Hozier releases makes me cry happy tears
Hozier made me question life with his song "All things end". After hearing this, I won't anymore.
My best friend died of cancer on November 30. This is the last song I sang to him. I keep thinking there was more I could do to change the outcome. More I could do to help. But the one thing I am sure of is that even knowing how painful this loss is and all the hard times we would have, 'I would do it again.' That part of the song always hits me right in that part of my spirit that knows that there aren't any regrets for the love I gave and the hardships we had.
this was ridiculously incredible live, genuinely think i left my body for a minute.
i like to think this song is an ode to francesca da rimini from dante’s “inferno”. one of the first souls damned in hell for infidelity, she described her actions as succumbing to love, whether one would like to consider that as an agent of sin or not. fate being unfair & unjust to all parties involved, francesca “would do it again” to hold her lover again.
This song made me nearly wreck my car I was sobbing so hard. I had to pull over and cry at how beautiful the sentiments were. Well done, sir.
You might need professional help.
@@pasquale1650 Oh no! Someone expressing emotion at art! They must be crazy! Grow up.
Que bonita la estética del video y el sentimiento que me llega al escuchar esta pieza. Que bonito el cariño que le pones a todas tus canciones y que bonito el mensaje que transmites como artista. Gracias por compartir tu arte con nosotros ❤️🥺
Totalmente de acuerdo!!! Andrew es único ojalá viniera a España de nuevo.❤
awesome atmosphere and lights...
and totally amazing band.
and of course I am in love with this song from its first premiere
Hozier dropping Francesca MV right on time for Pride is his gift to us all thank u king
He is king of the lesbians
i mean if you take the song out of context, it really fits for pride month
Doesn’t fit pride at all. Screw pride month.
Lol yeah it's soooo gay. 🙄
@@Grrranola lol
I've said it before and I will say it again: Andrew is truly the T.S Elliot, the William Butler Yeats of our generation. I have been listening to Hozier since I was a freshman in high school and I just graduated college a week ago! I just got dumped after 2 years together and I have no clue what I am going to do with my life. But this music helps me ride the waves as they come. From the bottom of my heart, I owe this man a lot and I am so grateful for his existence.
These lyrics are so amazing..I love this song .
There’s something desperately beautiful about choosing all the hardship that comes with living, just because a single moment with a loved one is worth it.
there is something so loud about that last bit that just makes my mind go silent
My lover name was Francesca, we parted ways, I still think about her in the pink light of love, I know that if I were to sin it would be of lust, just to hear her name again and again in the wind, strip myself of my identity, let me be, just once more, the Paolo of our lost love
The love of my life just left me and this song fits this situation so perfectly I can't stop listening to it. And I had the fortune of watching Hozier perform it just two days ago. I will never get over this
This song....heck, this whole album has consumed my mind, heart and soul. So many songs hit so hard and bring out emotions and feelings that I had forgotten about.
Amazing, how much truth and wisdom. Love the tempo and dynamic changes within the beat.
This new song caught my eye. Just last week, a dear friend named Francesca lost her battle with cancer, so the timing of this was uncanny. Perhaps that is why I took to this song like I have. Great job on this.
I just read about Francesca and Paolo love story. And now this hits even harder...
The video isn't out yet
But I know we will all cherish it and all the effect that got put into the music video
Like all the editors and the people who actually shot everything, the dancers I assume and the people who picked the outfits, or made the settings
We are all very thankful to have you around and help hozier with his music ❤❤❤ -all of his fans
(I havnt seen the trailor I want to be very surprised so idk if there's dancers and who actually help but i assume so )
How did you post a comment before the video was out? Just curious.
@SNK because I got a notification saying it will be out tomorrow
And I watch the trailor til then
And decided to comment
Oh, to be loved like this!
No puedo con todo lo que me hace sentir está canción. Es simplemente mágico, una felicidad y unas ganas de seguir adelante despues de esa relación que hasta la fecha estoy sanando.
Me sentia mal por creer que perdí el tiempo, pero poco a poco me di cuenta que hubo cosas buenas, lo malo me hace aprender sobre mí y lo que quiero, con ayuda de esta canción puedo decir que si, si regresara el tiempo volveria a tomar ese camino y aunque fuera con la mentalidad que tengo ahora... Definitivamente el cielo no esta listo para nuestro amor.
Muchas gracias Hozier y a todo tu equipo por hacer magia con la música.
i didn't think i could fall harder for this man but he comes out with this song and looks like that and i just melt! thank u sir for giving us this beautiful album!
This is just- heartbreakingly beautiful. I get that feeling of something trying to leap out of my throat, and it’s just, wow. Like a human person created this song. And is just someone you could see on a street. It’s just baffling. Even more so, the person this was wrote about also wanders the earth. It makes me want to cry of joy and sadness. Incredible piece. Just amazing
Aww❤
I love your energy.
Es genial porque logra transmitir intensidad y sutileza al mismo tiempo no se, senti fuerza y poder en e video
I love this song, it gives me 90s rock vibes, even reminds me of the cranberries a bit, spectacular!
I simply...love this song
Every time Hozier sings "i would do it again" I just can't help but tear up, what an emotional song! Love you Andrew!!
SUCH A MASTERPIECE!!! Words can't explain what I'm feeling right now, I thought I was prepared but I guess we will never be
I had a loved one pass on Saturday, and singing along to this song, for the past few days, has been surprisingly cathartic. Between good music, good comfort food, and good friends, I'm doing better than I had initially thought I would be. Sometimes peace comes naturally, sometimes we have to create it for ourselves, and right now I'm dealing with the latter, so I'm grateful to have this song to sing along with- despite the fact that I butcher it bad enough to be considered parody.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending you well wishes and hoping you continue healing as much as possible.
@@emmapalya1682 thank you for your kind words; I appreciated it very much.
If "Eat your young" was Feysand song, this one is Nessian.
Cheers to my book fellas

Love how there isn’t a real story or theme to the video because the performance of the group is entertaining enough to stand by itself. Incredible job Hozier. Your team is impeccable!

hozier just woke up one day and said ok time to make the best song of all time :) AND HE DID
Im now convinced he puts drugs into his songs
So glad to have hozier love the album it's a masterpiece ❤❤❤🖤🖤❤️❤️
