    Hello! I'm Andy - a semi-professional singer-songwriter from the UK, based in Germany. I'm a solo artist as well as vocalist of a rock band. I also teach English Language at university level, and this semester, due to covid-19 restrictions forcing an online semester on us, I did a special online version of my course "The Language of Songwriting."
    Alongside a bunch of songwriting challenges, part of the final project included the option of making a reaction/review video to a song that my students particularly enjoy, discussing what elements of the song(writing) are special to them. I never give out tasks I'm not willing to do myself, so I recorded one of my own (Ghost Love Score by Nightwish, also on my channel). I put it on TH-cam for fun to see whether there was interest in this kind of video, and I was really pleasantly surprised at the positive responses! So I've gone ahead and made some more! I want to offer some reviews of singer-songwriters as well as the metal genre, so this is my first one of those.
    In contrast to the many wonderful reactors out there, I'm reviewing a song I already know well. My reactions, therefore, are not as spontaneous or sensational as those of professional reactors ;-) Would you like more?

    Love his voice! Got goosebumps and tears in my eyes! Saw a vid where he performed in an underground station, was very impressing too! Great reaction and analysing! 👍Found your channel by your NW reaction/analyse. Now i must subb after hearing that you would dive into more singer/songwriter. How about something from Rag n bone man? During the pandemic i m more and more into symphonic metal, too. Stay well! 🎧🎹🎤

      Thank you, Jane Doe! Yes, I'll definitely be looking at some of my favourite singer-songwriters! Happy to look at a Ran 'n' Bone Man song or two! And of course more Nightwish! ;-)

    “It’s not the song, it is the singing,
    It is the heaven of the human spirit ringin”
    Those are possibly some of my favourite lyrics of all time. They just move me, and do lift my spirit.

    Such a great video!!! Thank you for pointing out all those technical/arrangement things that bring the song together. I never had any idea!

    So glad for the Suzanne Santo shoutout as well, she's great. A good thing Hozier found someone to fill her big shoes when she ramped up her solo career. Her collab with Gary Clarke Jr. was 😗👌

      Oh yeah, she's fantastic! Discovered her music via Hozier, and I'm kind of addicted to some of the tracks. Will be reviewing one of them soon!

    I love your expert opinion on this as a musician yourself. Indeed I've read a reddit thread abt subtle and elegant bass stylings where they cite Hozier as an example.

      Thank you Debbie! Honestly, this review has got less traffic than I'd hoped - do you know anywhere that the video could be shared in order to draw more Hozier fans in? The more demand there is, the faster the next Hozier review will be here!
