- Hozier delivers the most haunting version of the Scottish traditional song, "The Parting Glass."
"The Parting Glass" is a Scottish traditional song, often sung at the end of a gathering of friends. It has also long been sung in Ireland, where it remains popular and has strongly influenced how it is often sung today.

This is a traditional funeral song sung at wakes. Hozier originally covered this in 2020 during covid to remember the ones we lost. Its haunting
It's a traditional song that was sung at the local pubs when it was closing time... It became a funeral song over time
Hozier never misses the mark. He always makes it look so effortless. So memorable. ❤
I speak two languages and I don't have the words to describe the beauty of this in any of them

I speak 6 and still couldn't
This song in an Irish accent is just glorious. First heard this in Assassin's Creed IV, and I maintain, Irish singing is amazing
Of all the money that e'er I had
I've spent it in good company
And all the harm that ever I done
Alas it was to none but me
For all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all
Oh, all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And of all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They'd wish me one more day to stay
But as it falls unto my lot
That I must go and you must not
I'll gently rise and I'll softly call
Good night and joy be with you all
you got to love a singer who is so relaxed with his hands in his pockets; he knows it's HIS song.
I fell in love with this song after I heard Sinead O'Connor singing it. That is so great that this folk songs are sang by popular singers, it gives them new meaning every time, and that is how Celtic traditional music has become a nurturing soil for good half of contemporary pop and rock music. ❤ Other is half if African)
I just love this guy so much. An amazing voice and a humble soul. I really hope to be able to watch him perform live one day.
Bravo to the amazing Alex Ryan on keyboard for his beautiful and haunting arrangement of The Parting Glass.
His voice is so warm and resonate, absolutely lovely.
Irish song pogues sung it for funerals but a wake in Ireland is like a great day out 😂
Y'all that song was written in 1770 by Sir Alex Boswell btw. Idk why it says "his song"
Don't care who wrote it ,Hoziers version is epic
@@pmc237you should care, because the song has a long and storied history. it was traditionally played when gatherings of friends would disperse in Scotland (it also has strong Irish influences, which is part of the reason the song has special meaning for Hozier). appreciating the roots of the song makes it that much more impactful; you can read all about its history in a condensed form on Wikipedia. his rendition is so beautiful, as is the new boygenius version, but the lyrics themselves are gorgeous too. and it’s important to acknowledge that the song has been around for at least four centuries. meaning someone else (or perhaps multiple people, possibly including Sir Alex Boswell in the 1700s) molded the song into what it is today.
Thanks for the history lesson
You mean the other commenter saying Hozier knows it's "his song"? That's not what they meant. They meant that, especially with a traditional Celtic folk song, when you really know a song in your gut and you can ornament it so effortlessly, it becomes "yours." In Irish traditional circles, you're not said to know a song, you're said to "have" it, which I believe is a holdover from how the Irish language would express that concept. So while Hozier didn't write this song, he has it - it's his. (It's mine, too, though my voice isn't as beautiful.)
Buried my dad last Sunday. He wanted this song played at his funeral. Didnt happen. Pissed me off. No instead my niece read the words, like a poem. Please.. i hope my dad haunts those who didnt follow his wishes.
Beautiful song Hozier sings from the heart ❤️
Beautiful ❤

Anyone else remember this being the hidden song at the end of Give Me Love by Ed Sheeran?
It’s a Scottish song, best sang by the Irish.
People forget he used to sing with Anúna for several years
He's not performing "His" song. Beautiful version
THIS IS A COVER! This song is hundreds of years old 🤣
Why the laughing emoji?
Really hit by how damn tall the man is here lmao
I'm guessing his people are furious he is claiming this as his own?
He's not
More female singers should have the confidence to keep their sexuality out of their performances like this guy. Hands in pockets. Listen to this story nd never mind my looks.
Wtf is this comment ?
Moron.
