@@alsubartosh6535 In ancient Greek myth, Atlas was the giant who held up the skies. So I guess Hozier's saying the person he's singing about is like a mythical creature holding the whole universe.
Holy shit... He's definitely my favourite songwriter and musician from the current century. Also can we take a minute and appreciate the girls? I'm obsessed with their vocals and how well they all blend with Hozier and his songs in general! Btw that last purely vocal part with all of them gave me goosebumps. AMAZING!!!
yep, he totally got into the heads of so many people (forest magic). Thanks to him now i got into Heaney's poetry, Ella Fitzgerald...and stopped liking Polunin (for his stupid pro-Putin manifesto) for messing with Hozier's vision of art (got no better words to describet it...ughh)
@@hanami741 It was so sad hearing about Polunin. The initial inspiration of an out of vogue dancer, the misfit, was super cool and refreshing but then he snapped like that and oh boy, that was a slap in the face, honestly... Especially taking in consideration Hozier's beliefs and social activism that is totally on the opposite side of Sergei's. For me it looked like a total mockery and it's sad that it didn't came out earlier, before he even started to work with Hozier.
@@MrsAferova yeah exactly, it totally saddened me and made me kinda angry. And it also makes me think how stupid Polunin is, because c'mon i bet his pro-Putin views (which means no tolerance, homophobia, etc.) had been there before and he got to like Take me to Church so much he danced to it? He seriously never bothered to check the lyrics, or Hozier's statement behind this, such pure ignorance...dude has no integrity at all, takes part in projects that aren't in line with him....and then indirectly goes all against it. I really liked his dancing, but now i don't feel like checking his artwork at all. He might be just an uneducated victim of his environment...but on the other hand he's been living outside of Russia and Ukraine, to find out what is propaganda and what isn't. I just wish Andrew was able to express his opinion about it and just be straightforward instead of sweeping it under the carpet
@@hanami741 Hey there, im a big fan of Hozier from Russia :) What happened between Polunin and Andrew? Did Sergey speak disrespectful of Andrew's music?
saw him live twice this year and I will never get over his performances, his presence, his control, the way the whole band interacts and how they get the audience to match their energy. movement is simply transcendent.
Just happened to pause and then hit play at the incredibly resonant "baaaaaaaaabe" at 2:35 and like --- WHO SOUNDS LIKE THIS ????!!! Who gets to be able to make such a sound from their throat like this. One in a billion, this man.
Oh what memories... I had an opportunity to met him that day in Berlin before the concert. He's such a great guy. And nothing moves me like 'the movement' does... 🖤
[Lyrics] I still watch you when you're groovin' As if through water from the bottom of a pool You're movin' without movin' And when you move, I'm moved You are a call to motion There, all of you a verb in perfect view Like Jonah on the ocean When you move, I'm moved When you move I'm put to mind of all that I wanna be When you move I could never define all that you are to me So move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree You do it naturally Move me, baby You are the rite of movement Its reasonin' made lucid and cool I know it's no improvement When you move, I move You're less Polunin leapin' Or Fred Astaire in sequins Honey, you, you're Atlas in his sleepin' And when you move, I'm moved When you move I can recall somethin' that's gone from me When you move Honey, I'm put in awe of somethin' so flawed and free So move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree You do it naturally Move me, baby So move me, baby Like you've nothin' left to prove And nothin' to lose Move me, baby Ooh, ooh, ooh Oh baby, oh baby Move like grey skies Move like a bird of paradise Move like an odd sight come out at night Move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree You do it naturally Move me, baby So move me, baby Like you've nothin' left to lose And nothin' to prove Move me, baby So move me, baby Shake like the bough of a willow tree You do it naturally Move me, baby
this is one of the rare songs that make me feel something. like really feel something without remembering an experience or someone. it just makes me feel and sometimed it even makes me cry but without no background story.
Let's face the truth here. The studio versions of his songs are amazing, sure. But these sessions and his live versions are nothing less than a religious experience! That acapella, that melody, the backup singers- heaven! That's it, thanks for coming to my TED talk!
I’m actually dying and seeing Hozier is on my bucketlist. I got tickets for June! I just have to live that long. I’ll give it my all because it’s a really meaningful achievement to be able to experience my favorite music live. If I can be there in June, I’ll die with more peace in my soul.
I just: -read your comment -saw where I was in the video(nearly at the end) -and had a moment of realization that I had been watching for at least four minutes it felt like one at the most
It’s not normal for human ears to experience utter perfection. The gods of music came down to bless this performance; that’s clear enough. Shockingly beautiful. I’m dumbstruck. ✨
Of course Hozier was going to take a Masterpiece and MAKE IT BETTER!!! Can he even stop being so goddamn perfect?!?!? Also, Everyone in this video is heaven itself! #TheCircle
that last part where they're all acapella & that melody!! i want to live in that feeling forever
So much love in everything.... 🙏
That's when the instruments all stop and it's only human voices singing. It's the most powerful part for me too! ❤
Everytime. In every live version of this I've heard.
wann do that too.
hozier: you're atlas in his sleeping
me: no honey, *you're* atlas in his sleeping
S Sayali, exactly!😃
What does he mean saying Atlas? What is it mean?
@@alsubartosh6535 In ancient Greek myth, Atlas was the giant who held up the skies. So I guess Hozier's saying the person he's singing about is like a mythical creature holding the whole universe.
@@LoopyDewdrop Thank you so much,I was dumb enough to Believe that he meant Atlas with all the countries 🤣😂😅
I've just noticed how Hozier isn't even singing into the mic in the last harmony bit but you can still hear his voice over everyone else.
Shows the true power in his voice
Love this so much!! It's like Irish gospel....❤xx
Hozier is one of the old gods
Legend says he becomes a tree at night
or a werewolf
A blackthorn tree to be exact.
@@nicole0991 or a cedar tree perhaps?
Joseph Fabian13 I love you too!!!
LMFAO
That Jacket...That Reverb. This performance was lovely and choral , the backing singers were great as always
only Andrew can pull a grandpa coat just fine
I don’t know if that makes sense, but Hozier is like the renaissance of modern music
🎶

Is this what heaven feels like? Because I'mma stop sinning from now on and start going to church (wink wink) just to sit outside this door forever.
first off, I just wanna thank the cinematographers for that excellent high-def close-up visual of Hozier's beautiful hair,,,, thank you
Hozier’s voice has an ethereal aspect to it which is complimented greatly by the backing vocalists and with this cameraman’s fantastic work
HE IS SO FREAKING TALL
6' 5" is already giant territory
Feeling oppressed with my 5'8 stature smh 😭
territorial piss 5’3 +1/2. Try. Me.
I am 5' 1" :")
Hello, I’m 4’11”, we wouldn’t be able to fit our faces in the same photo standing up, hahahahaha
Nails it. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
its kinda a crime how handsome he is ughh
True.
Also, nice to see someone with a Deaky and Rog icon! :)
He is not handsome to me just so cool that I do not care if he is handsome or not
He is not handsome to me just so cool that I do not care if he is handsome or not
@@alsubartosh6535 i think he is so beautiful.
This is how Hozier is meant to be listened to, in an abandoned building with SO MUCH ECHO
God that final set of harmonies and the acoustics of that space were damn gorgeous
the best part!
Note that Hozier is still singing with all others in that part, but without the microphone...
The perfection of this is scary
When every ounce of physical and mental pain that you've been bearing with vanishes because of this performance.
The amount of soul they put into their performances blows my mind. Everything they create together is absolutely beautiful. 🌻
saw him live twice this year and I will never get over his performances, his presence, his control, the way the whole band interacts and how they get the audience to match their energy. movement is simply transcendent.
this is C E L E S T I AL wtf
Hozier, the backing vocals, the venue, the camera rolling... This is amazing
Just happened to pause and then hit play at the incredibly resonant "baaaaaaaaabe" at 2:35 and like --- WHO SOUNDS LIKE THIS ????!!! Who gets to be able to make such a sound from their throat like this. One in a billion, this man.
Oh what memories... I had an opportunity to met him that day in Berlin before the concert. He's such a great guy. And nothing moves me like 'the movement' does... 🖤
Wie geil! Die Möglichkeit hatte ich leider nicht, habe ihn aber immerhin beim LollaPalooza letztes Jahr gesehen 😍
Last part - making harmony together is crazy gives me goosebumps
That last harmonizing melody. My God, I want to live forever amongst it. 🖤
Oh lord,when he moans and groans...all types of chills up my spine!
This is incredible, I literally don't know what to type. The talent in that room is unbelievable. I swear Hozier isn't human, he's too perfect.
This song totally moves me... what a BEAUTIFUL version!! I don’t know why, but I love when he says “Move like a bird of paradise...”
[Lyrics]
I still watch you when you're groovin'
As if through water from the bottom of a pool
You're movin' without movin'
And when you move, I'm moved
You are a call to motion
There, all of you a verb in perfect view
Like Jonah on the ocean
When you move, I'm moved
When you move
I'm put to mind of all that I wanna be
When you move
I could never define all that you are to me
So move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
You are the rite of movement
Its reasonin' made lucid and cool
I know it's no improvement
When you move, I move
You're less Polunin leapin'
Or Fred Astaire in sequins
Honey, you, you're Atlas in his sleepin'
And when you move, I'm moved
When you move
I can recall somethin' that's gone from me
When you move
Honey, I'm put in awe of somethin' so flawed and free
So move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Like you've nothin' left to prove
And nothin' to lose
Move me, baby
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh baby, oh baby
Move like grey skies
Move like a bird of paradise
Move like an odd sight come out at night
Move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Like you've nothin' left to lose
And nothin' to prove
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
I've got goosebumps everywhere
full body chills with that last harmony. literal angels, i dream to be a part of something as beautiful as this in the future. incredible performance
That is a song which im obsessed like a real obsession
Me too, I literally can't stop listening to it
He’s so incredible. I cannot even fathom his talent🖤
I need a 1 hour extended version of the last part
From 4:20 till the last second, everything just transcends into a different universe!
Right
this is one of the rare songs that make me feel something. like really feel something without remembering an experience or someone. it just makes me feel and sometimed it even makes me cry but without no background story.

Love the way this Irish humming bird sings.
He’s a genius. Not many like him anymore
I love this slightly slower treatment - it seems deeper, somehow.
No matter what time of the day I hear anything by Hozier...his songs always lift my spirit on high!
I question my existence everytime I listen to this song. I feel like theres a choir of angels singing in my ears
I’m actually dying and seeing Hozier is on my bucketlist. I got tickets for June! I just have to live that long. I’ll give it my all because it’s a really meaningful achievement to be able to experience my favorite music live. If I can be there in June, I’ll die with more peace in my soul.
Wow, this full screen was almost as good as seeing him live standing in the first row, I swear 😍
this heavy bass is what gives gravity to all the other aspects of this piece - awesome
This was celestial and brought down to earth! I love it!
This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard.
I may have cried. The ending gave me chills! Nothing but love for you all!
that last part is hauntingly beautiful and i would be more than okay if it were the only sound i'd be hearing for the rest of my life
i could cry listen on the last part every single time 😭 it’s so beautiful...
This. Is. Insane. Can't wait to see him live again some day. Amazing!
The harmonies at the end give me life!
This brought me to tears today. At the 4:19 mark, I just started crying, at the magnificence of it all.
i was found dead after the amazing harmonies they made in 4:19
I just:
-read your comment
-saw where I was in the video(nearly at the end)
-and had a moment of realization that I had been watching for at least four minutes it felt like one at the most
This is the sound of heaven.
Gosh , I was chewing gum n I bite my inner cheek from the excitement 😭😂
It’s not normal for human ears to experience utter perfection. The gods of music came down to bless this performance; that’s clear enough. Shockingly beautiful. I’m dumbstruck. ✨
Been listening to few covers of this but nothing comes close, shows how incredible Hoziers voice is. One of a kind.
This fills me with a deep sense of yearning
A stellar performance
What a way to open my day.
Amazing.. His voice goes straight to my soul ♡
Great song ,fantastic Hozier and his group ! Thank youuuuuuu ! It makes me shivers ... move me baby ...
💕💕Beautiful! I can listen over & over again!!! Absolutely Beautiful!!!💕💕
hearing those harmonies never fails to fill my heart
This song touches my soul and especially that last part soothes my broken heart.
Of course Hozier was going to take a Masterpiece and MAKE IT BETTER!!! Can he even stop being so goddamn perfect?!?!?
Also, Everyone in this video is heaven itself!
#TheCircle
I feel a different way when I listen to his music. It’s just so beautiful I want to protect it
This song is just so beautiful
That hair,that voice,that face😍😍😍😍
4:25 -> Look out the power of his voice and the microphone position
That first sop in the choral parts!???? Amazing!!!!!! All of this is brilliant
Absolutely BEAUTIFIL!
A MASTERPIECE
I liked the video before watching it because I knew it was gonna be great
Anyone know where i could find more music with the same feel as that acapella ending? that was haunting and beautiful
HorribleMM Andy the rest of his music, start of ‘dinner and diatribes’ and they are scattered delicately throughout all his music
Check out Ibeyi. Completely different style but some similar feeling I think.
Best version!!
This is so beautiful I'm crying
This song, is great. But this song acoustic like this, is at their BEST version.
Shivers....
that was beautiful. the last set of harmonies tho *goosebumps*
Why is Hozier still amazing 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Just can't stop listening to this beautiful song 😍💕👏
This is so beautiful! What a wonderful song! What a wonderful live session. Pure beauty! 😍😍👌🏻
Didn't think anything could top the original but this version really came close. So so great!
some Legends were told and remembered for centuries...beautiful song,great place,cool moans,best acapella,amazing voice from my fave😍❤🎤
Wow 😌 Amazing acoustic version like i prefer. The acapella part sounds like Heaven 😊💖🙏🏻
Wooowww 😭😭😳 IM SPEECHLESS . I do not stop replay
This is so beautiful.
His voice gives me the shivers. Such an amazing performance 🐨☄
Hi, I worship hozier.
