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.
I wholeheartedly agree with you, but if you were looking for an additional voice to melt over, I literally just started listening to them and I guess I'm just a little excited to share/can't believe I didn't listen sooner, but Conor Mason with the band Nothing But Thieves seems just incredible. You can tell that every word sung is deeply felt and meant. th-cam.com/video/vS67vfcp-S4/w-d-xo.html
Well in a different style I can recommend you Tamino. He has this unique voice and style. His vocal range is very large (I'm not sure if it's the right word but hope u get it) and his music is ethnic Egyptian sounds mixed with beautiful English lyric.
The first version (which I’ve loved for so long now) is like falling in love. Hozier’s version is like falling OUT of love, but desperately wanting to keep holding on, missing that spark that used to be there.
Oh snap. I think 22 likes is the most I’ve ever gotten on a TH-cam comment. Sweet, guys 🤙🏻 thanks!! Glad y’all feel the same. Makes me feel less weird for thinking that LOL. Edit: UHHHH SO LIKE HUNDREDS???? THAT’S A FIRST???? 🖤
AM version : let's go to the bar and get wasted while broken hearted Dua lipa version : just have a wine and sobbing on a sofa Hozier version : stay sober through the night and cant sleep because im so overthink and depressed
Arctic Monekys "Do I Wanna Know": taking another sip of your drink as you stare at someone you've been flirting with at a bar all night Hozier "Do I Wanna Know": sitting on the couch with that close friend you've had a crush on forever, having a deep conversation, and making momentary eye contact when a pause in the conversation lasts just a bit too long
Hozier made this song his very own. This version destroys me. It perfectly captures the tone of limerence and lost love. It's haunting, it hurts, and it's so incredibly beautiful. Well done.
but the song was originally made to sound desparate and intense which I personally prefer, hozier songs are more of the sad kind and it's good for him I guess.
The fact that Hozier apparently listens to and likes both Arctic Monkeys and Florence and the Machine has got to be one of the best things in the universe
I think everyone usually talks about his voice, but he is a great musician. He is conducting them. Keeping time for them when he sees them slowing. And the harmonies different rhythms are beautiful and I think he deserves more credit for that.
This is exactly how covers should look like. The artist takes someone else’s song and sing it in their own style, so you have the same song but a completaly new feeling from it. I love the orginial and I love this cover. Beautiful ❤️
@@zoe__7 it's and from frozen... Actually few yrs back I had this colorbook app for Disney... And I had this ana's picture and colored it according to my choice.... So you know it's kind of imagination ana
Notice how he changed it from a minor key to a major key, making it even more emotional when he hits those minor chords. Not many people would have thought to do that, covering a song. He's a true innovator.
Caoimhe (Kwee-vah, it's Irish Gaelic, they've crazy spellings) Barry and Karen Cowley. They are also a band called Wyvern Lingo, they are fantastic they just released an album recently. They opened for Hozier early on in their career. Karen had a duet with Hozier on his first album.
The original (which I absolutely love and keep going back to) sounds like being scared of rejection. night out drinking and meaningless sex with random strangers. This sounds like drinking on your sofa alone while looking at their pictures, depressing basically.
3:54- 4:18 the girl doing the harmony that is highest and loudest in this bit is singing the sweetest melody and i can't get over how great it is and it's now stuck in my head
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.
I love both versions so much! They are like two stages of recovering from one-sided love. Hozier's version is filled with a deep heartbreak, and longing, and sadness, and yearning. Original feels like you are swallowed by the void, depression and absolute apathy, indifference to everything. I'm not sure which stage goes first
All you commenting about the beautiful capella throughout this should probably know that the backup singers have their own band called Wyvern Lingo. They make some super gorgeous music similar to this, go check them out!
The original was a man afraid of rejection yet also afraid of being with her This rendition is the same man but after he finally got his answer, one he wished he didn’t want to know in the first place
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.
They completely changed the overall tone of the song and have now turned it into this hauntingly beautiful rendition. It's so completely different than the original, like a work all it's own, and it's absolutely fantastic.
redder_dominator there actually is a slower ballad-esque cover of mr. brightside done by run river north, you might want to give it a listen it’s quite good imo
That moment when you realize that, no, you really *really* DON'T wanna know that the person you've been feeling for doesn't feel the same. That you'd rather live in ignorant bliss because you know just how fucking bad it's gonna hurt when that realization hits. This cover captures that completely.

this is friends to lovers core , the yearning, the fear of losing something you already have but you're falling deeper and you don't know if the other person feels the same way but you wanna hold on to the hope that maybe they do..
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???
One of the back vocals, the one with the most prominent voice at the end, she could take my life and i would thank her. She is Killing It with her voice and of course, as a gay i am obligated to pay my respects the forest witch father Hozier for his existance.
@Joshua A. Wegmann Of course i have a huge urge to announce i am gay wherever i go. I can't go tell my parents i am gay even though i am 22 and mostly independent, without fearing my father murdering me. I can't tell some of my friends because where i live, most of them are homophobic. I fucking apologize that i see this shitty youtube account as a safe space away from my real life people and happily try to be myself and it inconviniences you. And yeah, start announcing you are straight everywhere, literally NOBODY is stopping you. At worst some of my rightfully jealous gays will mock you for it. It's not like your life literally depends on staying silent about liking whoever the fuck you like. Go hate your wife or something.
Joshua A. Wegmann run with it dude! Go one step further and respect gay people like they do to you! Maybe after that you’ll see how much of a douche you were being to people who just want acceptance without a huge fight over it. We only say it as much as we do to see how many people are like us or are allies, or to pay respects and compliment. You should definitely do more of that, and maybe you’ll find the people you talk so harshly to are human too.
Joshua A. Wegmann this is literally the dumbest thing i’ve read in a while. you’re reeking of privilege and it shows. you don’t have to fear for your life because of your sexuality but some of us live with that fear EVERY single day. imagine getting so bothered by a harmless comment on youtube. homophobic much 🤢
Female vocalists can elevate a song so much. Whenever daddy Clapton performs the song Layla he almost always has female backup vocalists and it makes the song just that much better.
fun fact: if one of the backup singers sounds familiar it’s because they’re karen cowley! they had a duet song with hozier on his debut album called “in a week”!
Amazing how he managed to make this a completely different song. Hozier doesn’t get enough praise for being, in my honest opinion, one of the greatest voices of our time. What a talent.
AM version: broken up with, bitter and ready for some shit talking and rebound at the bar Hozier: A slowburn with someone who you dated and broke up with but are still friends and you're caught in an endless dance around one another wondering if they still love you
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. 😍🔥

'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)
the way lyrics just gained that depth and and whole new meaning
Hozier is the personification and sound of heartache
And Jeff Buckley
@@yasmineazaiez2737 Haha the World will know soon enuff who is who😉in ALL cases of this actorbased "reality"😂
you're forgetting about Tamino. "Habibi", "Persephone" and "Indigo Night" cut right trough your soul... in a good way.
He needs to cover a song from Cigarettes after sex because my heart will be even more in love!
Oh imagine 'K.' or 'The less I know the better'
@@NightmaresWonderland Heart and brain melting if it happens :O
FFS YESSSS
this comment and the comments to it is Gold.. I hope.. I hope..😭
Oh, yeah Cigarettes After Sex...
Love them..
listening to hozier sing ANYTHING will make you truly feel your feelings
this is friends to lovers core , the yearning, the fear of losing something you already have but you're falling deeper and you don't know if the other person feels the same way but you wanna hold on to the hope that maybe they do..
The tone is so much sadder in this version. Love it because the lyrics seem to have more meaning this way.
They do and this is perfect dont get me wrong but the passion in the original song. THAT ANGRY LOVE thats whats real
I never thought I could be relaxed into sadness but here we are
Madison Moss this
Hozier is king of this. Cherry Wine’s lyrics are so chilling yet the song is so lovely you feel so peaceful listening to it
I like you.
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???
I could not of said it better
yeah
the way their voices go together at 1:51 is so beautiful
so real
also 4:00 :)
Such a breathtaking rendition.
Speaking of "breathtaking", don't you thinking the beginning of this version sound like "Take My Breath Away"?
this is one of the best covers I've ever heard. The emotion just pours through. Im not sure how someone couldn't like this.
All of his covers / songs are so emotional
THIS is the tune I found that makes me think of them somehow and I play on repeat
My gosh... I didn’t even recognize this as the same song. He OWNED this! I’m in love.
One of the back vocals, the one with the most prominent voice at the end, she could take my life and i would thank her. She is Killing It with her voice and of course, as a gay i am obligated to pay my respects the forest witch father Hozier for his existance.
Pınar TAŞ same 😭😭😭
ikr like step on me pretty voiced lady
@Joshua A. Wegmann Of course i have a huge urge to announce i am gay wherever i go. I can't go tell my parents i am gay even though i am 22 and mostly independent, without fearing my father murdering me. I can't tell some of my friends because where i live, most of them are homophobic. I fucking apologize that i see this shitty youtube account as a safe space away from my real life people and happily try to be myself and it inconviniences you.
And yeah, start announcing you are straight everywhere, literally NOBODY is stopping you. At worst some of my rightfully jealous gays will mock you for it. It's not like your life literally depends on staying silent about liking whoever the fuck you like. Go hate your wife or something.
Joshua A. Wegmann run with it dude! Go one step further and respect gay people like they do to you! Maybe after that you’ll see how much of a douche you were being to people who just want acceptance without a huge fight over it. We only say it as much as we do to see how many people are like us or are allies, or to pay respects and compliment. You should definitely do more of that, and maybe you’ll find the people you talk so harshly to are human too.
Joshua A. Wegmann this is literally the dumbest thing i’ve read in a while. you’re reeking of privilege and it shows. you don’t have to fear for your life because of your sexuality but some of us live with that fear EVERY single day. imagine getting so bothered by a harmless comment on youtube. homophobic much 🤢
My word the female vocalists had such gorgeous voices! Especially on those last few lines 😍
Exactly
I cant get over it
And one voice sounds sooo familiar
@@belanna0dd i think you’re hearing karen cowley! they had a duet with hozier on his first album!
Female vocalists can elevate a song so much. Whenever daddy Clapton performs the song Layla he almost always has female backup vocalists and it makes the song just that much better.
I come back to this over and over. ..how is he possible??
when the harmonies are so good you cant tell their voices apart 😩
The song lyrics make so much more sense after listening to this cover idk why
Imagine Hozier cover Slow dancing in the dark by joji
Oh, my god. That their my friend would be heaven.
Didn't know I needed this
We can't have that, it would be to powerful.
That’s a shout 🔥
i would die
fun fact: if one of the backup singers sounds familiar it’s because they’re karen cowley! they had a duet song with hozier on his debut album called “in a week”!
Fucking incredible duet too
I didn’t think I liked this cover at first because it changes the whole meaning of the song for me but now I can’t stop thinking about it.
This song makes me want to cry it's so pretty and it makes me feel so perfectly and exquisitely lonely.
Morrisey,is that you?😂
Bro!!! The chick is playing cello and background singing like WHAT?!?!?!?!?!
The art of Chris Bryant Alanna Henderson. She's awesome
That guy playing the guitar and singing lead though
Multitasking -- 100
BBC must be understaffed
@@HotFish i didn't know this was the group she came from! Thank you.
Amazing how he managed to make this a completely different song. Hozier doesn’t get enough praise for being, in my honest opinion, one of the greatest voices of our time. What a talent.
Exactly, if he would've sold out he could've been THE voice of our generation
Doing ok at the moment all the same, bout to have one of the biggest songs of the year@@tmerk4292
the cello *transforms* this cover istg... it makes it come alive.
I need this to be released on Spotify, immediately
You can find it on Spotify, just look up Hozier Do I Wanna Know and it should come up~
@@hhughes9465 It's not there
Alli / denise it’s there
H H I don’t see it! :(
@@xVioletx11 that's so weird!! I was about to get the link for you but I can't find it on Spotify anymore either
Artic Monkeys- Madness
Dua- Sober
Hozier- Agony
2019
Genius
Nobody sings this song like Alex turner! Love the Artic Monkeys!
I NEED MORE SONGS WITH THIS VIBE.
Just listen to all of Hozier’s original music
this is fucking beautiful i can’t explain the chills that permeate wherever i am when this plays
I came here for a cool guitar and I left soaked in tears 😭
Mr.crackagaming108 im there for u m8 i feel the same
Haha
1:33 never thought I’d see the day Hozier CHOSE to NOT say “baby” in a song
Kate Jeffries that’s just how the original song goes
Phantom1pr no the original lyric is “baby we both know”
Kate Jeffries Oh damn i just checked you’re right my bad
Phantom1pr no problem lol
I’m so used to this cover. I forgot the original was “baby.”
The fact that hozier took a song that originally sounded so sensual and made it sound so calm and peaceful- I’m in love
I love that he had Wyvern Lingo as his back-up singers. They are an amazing band! Well done!
hozier proves he is the softest angel by doing this in MAJOR KEY
THIS SO CHILL I LOVE IT
It makes me feel like I'm high tbh
therefore it is good Lulune Monexe
Isobella Austin Very very very good
No it wasn't this was terrible
+Cosmo Rumbis okay then
AM version: broken up with, bitter and ready for some shit talking and rebound at the bar
Hozier: A slowburn with someone who you dated and broke up with but are still friends and you're caught in an endless dance around one another wondering if they still love you
This cover lives in my head rent-free 😭 I love him!
I’m 3 years late and I never knew how much I needed this in my life
I'm in the same boat man
This cover is the reason I get up in the morning.
Mac Braun Wow! Maybe me too, these days
Did you set it as alarm tone?
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. 😍🔥
i'm happily married but suddenly feel broken hearted because of this cover.
This makes me feel like calling an ex that's never existed
Lol
Hearing this song, sung by Hozier, hits different in your thrities.
This is such a lovely fall song.
the acapella part at the end almost killed me
I was just innocently eating my spaghetti, but now that I’ve seen this, my life will never be the same
honestly same i was literally watching twilight for some laughs and now i’m watching this questioning every relationship i’ve never had
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
