This is the perfect environment for him because, and I mean this in the best way possible, Hozier has always looked like that one strikingly attractive and well-groomed homeless guy you see on the subway

it’s so weird for me to realize that hozier, this beautiful mythical mysterious forest mountain man, is also a millennial who sometimes tweets really weird and angsty shit.
This is my favorite song on the entire planet. I want this played at my wedding and my funeral. All these likes! I don't know what to do with myself! You humans are amazing!
Have to mention the amazing girl playing violin behind Hozier whilst also singing along. Also, Hozier's voice somehow sounds way better live than in studio. Dude is a lyrical wizard
I just lost my son, was pregnant for 22 weeks, ik it’s about a woman but this is how I feel without him. I love him, he’s my baby. I’m broken without him. It’s been 19 days since I had him and each one gets harder then the first.
In New York people walk by as a woman was raped in the street and did nothing. They also walked by a dying man that was stabbed and he ended up laying there dying crying for help for hours. Thats how it is in NY.

I’m a tiny person, 5’ 1”, and as such have small hands, and seeing him easily hold that guitar and his fingers effortlessly curl into chords that to me require effort is the most frustrating thing I’ve ever seen and I’m so angry about it.
i remember when i was in nyc i sang randomly waiting for my friends and a person came to me and asked if i can sing louder i said ok and i sang joe tex and these taming blues and she gave me 10$ lmao it made my day
Boys workin' on empty Is that the kind'a way to face the burning heat? I just think about my baby I'm so full of love I could barely eat There's nothing sweeter than my baby I'd never want once from the cherry tree 'Cause my baby's sweet as can be She give me toothaches just from kissin' me When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her Boys when my baby found me I was three days on a drunken sin I woke with her walls around me Nothin' in her room but an empty crib And I was burnin' up a fever I didn't care much how long I lived But I swear I thought I dreamed her She never asked me once about the wrong I did When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her My baby never fret none About what my hands and my body done If the lord don't forgive me I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me When I was kissing on my baby And she put her love down soft and sweet In the lowland plot I was free Heaven and hell were words to me When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her
I would absolutely have missed work if I went to the subway and hozier was down there singing. Who needs a job when you've been blessed by his angelic voice 😭😍
Hozier is an angel descended from the heavens to soothe our souls in these trying times. Every word holds magic, every note has a mystic hum woven into it.

So not only did I already love this song but it now has even more meaning to me. My grandfather passed a little over a week ago. The day before he passed I held his arm and hummed this song for him. I don't know if he could hear me but I couldn't bring myself to speak to him and the only way I could show him that I was with him was by humming. So I hummed a few songs for him. My grandparents were also married for 58 years and I think their kind of love is the kind represented in the song. I know he is in heaven right and now and I have no doubt that my grandmother will one day join him and they will be together for eternity. That's the love I hope to have. That is what this song is. Love for all eternity.
Internet Internet Can you tell me what do you mean, more specificly ? Like he sings about his fame, not love? But there can be also an interpretation of a lover and relationship: so strong that he is assured, death won't stop him from "crawling back"? What do you think?
His songs got me through high school, I found myself crying to this song among others when I didnt want to be alive, & Ill listen to them now while in quarantine :')
Beside the well known Take me to church, this exact song in this exact video was the one that brought Hozier to me and me to Hozier. And I am forever grateful of this fact.
Been living in nyc 23 years. Taken the subway for 19 of those. Never once saw something like this. And people just walking by like he’s a street musician. Ww
This is one of those transcendent songs which could have been written in the 30s, 60s, or 2023. Just so pure, simple, stripped down, and yet utterly complete in every way. Nothing could be removed or added to make this better. Top 25 of the past 100 years.

Petition for Hozier to release an acoustic album of his songs with these people as harmonies so byutiful omg😭

Consider it signed.
This is the band he tours with!! I saw him live in Windsor and it was a spiritual experience
YES
Yes, I second that. 💚
This is the perfect environment for him because, and I mean this in the best way possible, Hozier has always looked like that one strikingly attractive and well-groomed homeless guy you see on the subway
Aidan Childers the reverb from the walls of the subway must have also made him sound even more amazing 😭😭 wish I was there
I laughed at the homeless prt😂😂😂😂 but why is that so true
😭😭
Most hilarious compliment 😂
It’s sad he’s still so underground.
"No grave can hold my body down, I crawl home to her"
I'm so inlove with this line.

I want hozier to sing me to sleep, his voice is so soothing😭
Never heard this one before but it also brought me to tears, his voice is just so amazing.
Hunter Arnold - Really? I’m surprised. It’s been played on the radio heavy rotation since year. Maybe you just don’t recognize the acoustic version?

No offense but, you look like 15 or 16.

I can only imagine going to work and thinking 'oh this musician sounds like Hoizer- *oh my god it is Hozier*'
Omg why are people in the back just walking by this omg guys stop its hozier 😭😭😭😭

It's still crazy to me how Hozier rounded up all of the sirens and made them his worshipers, and we caught this wonderful creation on camera
it's most definitely because he too, is an otherworldly deity and can therefore summon his sirens
Boys workin' on empty
Is that the kind'a way to face the burning heat?
I just think about my baby
I'm so full of love I could barely eat
There's nothing sweeter than my baby
I'd never want once from the cherry tree
'Cause my baby's sweet as can be
She give me toothaches just from kissin' me
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
Boys when my baby found me
I was three days on a drunken sin
I woke with her walls around me
Nothin' in her room but an empty crib
And I was burnin' up a fever
I didn't care much how long I lived
But I swear I thought I dreamed her
She never asked me once about the wrong I did
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
My baby never fret none
About what my hands and my body done
If the lord don't forgive me
I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
When I was kissing on my baby
And she put her love down soft and sweet
In the lowland plot I was free
Heaven and hell were words to me
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
Thank you for posting these lovely lyrics!

This is honestly my favorite song by him. It fits his voice so well
The 22 dislikes are the 22 people who took taxies to work that morning 😂 Hozier is such a beauty ❤️🙌🏼 he really sang the shit out of this song
In moments like this I regret for dedicate this song to a person that didn't deserve something so beautiful that came from my heart.
Right from the second they start humming I transcend to a whole different place.
3:25 is the most insane thing i've ever heard
Thanks for this repeat button that I've just smashed the heck out of 😍
For me it's his expressions as he sings that part too 🙌
This guy could ramble about random stuff and as long as he has that nice background singing I'd love it
I would absolutely have missed work if I went to the subway and hozier was down there singing. Who needs a job when you've been blessed by his angelic voice 😭😍
the little shrug after "if the lord don't forgive me"
No Studio , No previous tech. preparations and sound effects ... Just a pure genius talent voice
Goddamn his voice and his beauty. 😍😍😍
Hozier is an angel descended from the heavens to soothe our souls in these trying times. Every word holds magic, every note has a mystic hum woven into it.

Thank you I really appreciate it!
man, he can TAKE me to church any day. goddamn!
I’d be so goddam late for work if there was Hozier singing in my subway...
I always wonder if he sings it refering each time to the person he wrote it for with thinking "Little did I know then..."
I doubt he’s enamored by his own fame.
He’s a very modest & humble man.
Internet Internet Can you tell me what do you mean, more specificly ? Like he sings about his fame, not love? But there can be also an interpretation of a lover and relationship: so strong that he is assured, death won't stop him from "crawling back"? What do you think?
He’s probably not interested in his fame.
He doesn’t care about being famous.
He values peace & quiet over fame.
Hidden within the lines of this song is the undying love between the souls who left and those who were left behind.
He’s an angel. I have his albums on vinyl and I listen to them all the time ✨
Woaahh he's soo tall even tho there's no stage he still stands out
His songs got me through high school, I found myself crying to this song among others when I didnt want to be alive, & Ill listen to them now while in quarantine :')
I hope you're better now! Stay strong love x
i hope you're still staying strong!! you are so loved. we can get through this, love, i promise you that!!!
Feel u
I never know whether to cry or smile while listening to hozier....so sometimes i just do both
I occasionally come back to these subway versions and do exactly that
This song always has to be my fav from Hozier. I mean, look at the lyrics, it is so beautiful💞
My absolute favorite Hozier song 💜 gives my heart a sweet ache every time I hear it
I don't care about anything else I just really appreciate this very emotional song. ❤
I can't decide whether to play this at my wake or my wedding. or both.
Their voices are so beautiful
Whoa Hozier is tall as fuck. He looks like he’s on a stage alone above them but he’s just on the ground. Big talent in a big man
This song will actually make me enjoy my work.
I love how he makes you feel so much in his songs! Definitely will go down as one of my top 10 artists!!
I like the way he stands on his tippy toes when he sings.🥰 Hee hee So cute. ☺️
The backing vocal dude on the back is rocking it. Love this song, Hozier is just too damn good.
Beside the well known Take me to church, this exact song in this exact video was the one that brought Hozier to me and me to Hozier.
And I am forever grateful of this fact.
He sound amazing everywhere
It’s crazy how he can make a guitar look like a ukelele
You can see the emotion in his face as he sings with the same level of mind shattering emotion. Wow just wow. Fantastic!
I just fell in love with this man, this is so pure
I just discovered this song a few weeks ago and it’s quickly become one of my favorites. It’s just so captivating and beautiful.❤️
As soon as hòźier opens his mouth to sing--- I'm mesmerized what a talented man anything he performs send me into another dimension! Love ya Andrew!
I love everything about Andrew Hozier (the singer) and he's band "Hozier" Too 💖💖💖
Been living in nyc 23 years. Taken the subway for 19 of those. Never once saw something like this. And people just walking by like he’s a street musician. Ww
A song that would sound as beautiful played at a wedding or a funeral. Hozier is truly ethereal
There are no words to describe how beautiful this is
Carrying the torch of Van Morrison, of the irish mystic feeling and magic... Amazing talent.
Just beautiful! Imagine being at the subway that time.
Your music brings me healing. Always what I need to hear when I need a little pick me up.
I hear lotta music this day but non of them I found more relatable than this one❤🫂I love your song so much🥺
Love this man. Voice is amazing.
Congratulations from Brazil.
His fingers are perfect for barre chords
lol 😂
It's perfect for my p**** too
That's what I said too
If i was getting on the subway in New York and just heard Hozier’s beautiful voice and saw him, i would’ve dropped dead.
This version gets more beautiful every time I listen to it. 👏
Some people accidentally pressed the dislike button 😤
maybe they thought it's download :))
I think they thought it said dis.I.like
This song is so beautiful 😢
This is one of those transcendent songs which could have been written in the 30s, 60s, or 2023. Just so pure, simple, stripped down, and yet utterly complete in every way. Nothing could be removed or added to make this better. Top 25 of the past 100 years.
❤
I am so grateful for these talented people around. It seems there still is a few...
It’s 2021 & this song still comforts my soul!
the number of emotions I would be feeling to witness this
OMG!!! Great voice!! The vocalist on back so good too!!! I love it!!!
No grave can hold my body down, I’ll crawl home to her ❤️
If I ever get the chance to experience this in person one day, I’ll surely shed tears of joy and feel blessed just to be alive.
That first note gave me so many chills..this man is so amazing
Absolutely breathtaking... My favourite version of this song.
got me in tears man
This dude is way too awesome!!
One of my favourite songs ever, this version makes me wish I was in choir again so we could try this
this song and his voice sends me to another plane of existence, seriously
This is so beautiful in so many levels ❤️💕👌🏻
Truly the voice of an angel his songs move your souls and make you feel things. This is a true musician. 🙏🏻♥️
