I really like the way (beginning at around 5:30) that you're describing how Hozier uses the "two takes" for the chorus, how one is belted, huge and 'pulling away from the mic,' and one is low and close and smooth. I think it's not about managing personal technique and abilities, but it's totally about how he wants the vocal sounds to highlight and ground the lyrics and the story he's telling. The tale, and the consequences, are both enormous and outrageous, and yet hushed and intimate - and he's managed to tell both sides of the story at the very same time with the way he's blended those takes. There's so much depth here - thank you for pointing out an element of it that I might not have considered otherwise!
the song sounds overproduced and meaninglessly flamboyant. the guy has raw talent, putting him in a studio and editing is a terrible idea. not the best version of the song. all of his best is done simple, acoustic, and live. without a shadow of a doubt.

New Hozier music is always a reason to celebrate

Yeah man you gotta look up the story of Leda and the Swan. Gives a lot of context to the lyrics and it gets more complex at each listen
I am kind of in love with you rs loved the way you dived into the song ❤
ahah thanks I guess :)
1 There’s definitely a chorus, and it’s dramatic as can be. 2 He doesn’t make mistakes on a recording. He’s in total control of his choices.
Lol I forgot to center the camera at the beginning
great video !
Thanks guitar headstock!
oh wow you really blundered the editing on this one
it’s intentional to avoid copyright
@@sleeeepy_frog yea i know these are all my accounts, i said that because the beginning is not centered and some text is shifted at the end :)
