You wish! I wish! We all wish! Finally there's art in the lyrics again, after a long time. But you know what? The grammys will be for Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Cyrus, Eilish and more of that crap music... If you notice, 'Take me to church' was pure art, I mean the music and the lyrics! But they choose Sam Smith :/ Hozier has proven he's a great writer, J.Joyce would be proud. Plus, Ireland is a country that has true musical gems: U2, The Cranberries, Sinéad O'Connor...
@@renemoloney9403 well from my understanding.. "you treat your mouth as if it's heavens gate"-- heaven's gate can imply a connotation "saint like" you are too nice..very selective with your words and the things you say..because it's followed by "the rest of you like you're the TSA" the TSA is airport security so suggesting this person is too guarded. So he is saying she is very soft and sweet, careful with words enough to not hurt anyone, or cause trouble, hence the chorus I think I'll take my whisky neat... strong and brutally honest then well yunoo anyways.. hope his helps..I.could be wrong haha :)
@@Brandon-yr3nj I get the "we're so different, this is not going to work" but I also get the flirty vibe when he says "you can sit in a barrel, maybe I'll wait", it's like he's saying "oh, actually, maybe this can work if I wait you to mature", or like "maybe we can get along if we give time to time" idk lol
@@Brandon-yr3njYou don't seem to be very familiar with Hozier. He respects women very much. You could even go so far as to say he worships them. He would never do that. Plus, all the women described in his songs are very passionate, strong, and even a little cruel. So I think he's being completely straight up in this song. He likes his women to have some bite to them.
@@Brandon-yr3nj flirty? yikes, he's laying all his cards down & telling her they don't suit each other, he's roasting her lowkey, the barrel line is sarcasm & humor it's the most straightforward Hozier song I wish people analyzed Cherry Wine this much maybe it won't be played in so many weddings
I'm gonna be honest, I am deaf and I recently got a Cochlear Implant, this song besides "Beautiful Things" by Benson Boone is the G.O.A.T I hope whoever is reading this, knows that their hearing is a gift. But I do NOT wish i was a "normal" hearing person. I love who I am, and yes, people do and will bully me, but i don't care :)
I couldn’t agree more - hearing is a gift, sight is a gift, being alive is a gift. I’m so glad you were given the ability to enjoy this song and many others. And I say🖕to the haters and bullies, they are losers who will never be happy
@@Happycat37330 a grape aging in a barrel is saying she needs to mature or change in some way before he could be interested. I don't see how you can take it any other way 🙂
@Happycat37330 wait for what though? I think the major theme of the song is her innocent and sweet nature and his incompatiblity with that. This makes the most sense to me. The great thing about art is that people perceive it differently ❤
@@Happycat37330yes in my opinion he is softly rejecting her. Singing her praises,, just that he would rather live his life more roughly and a different lifestyle than her
@@Happycat37330 hozier loves a tragic romance! And some people just prefer someone who is wiser, more open to experiences, less innocent and clean cut. Or at least more open to the darker aspects and walks of life. Especially if one is not so innocent themselves. She also tries to tell him to live more like she does, and he says he just isn't like her. He could find someone more compatible, and so could she. Nothing wrong with preferences!
Imagine being an overall happy and energetic person, always trying to look on the bright side and being able to successfully manage your problems, then you date Hozier and he writes this song about you after breaking up
I rarely take my coffee black and I do not like whiskey. But I still relate to this song, cause I feel like it's saying "we enjoy things different, and aren't drift compatible, but that is not a bad thing. You're a little overwhelming, but I still love you, even though our tastes are different."
Hoziers mature enough to know how to speak to someone with different ideals and not offend them. He’s also talented enough to turn it into pure musical gold
Congratulations, Hozier and Band on your first #1 on Billboards hot 100. I've been a fan of yours since "Church". You so deserve this!!! 🎉🎉❤❤❤🥳🥳🥳🥰🥰🥰!!!!
RIGHT??? Like he releases something and I go "damn this is one of his best songs out there, I'm not sure if he could write something that could match this." AND THEN HE DOES??? WHAT DOES HE EAT????
@ValeriaDehesa I think you ignored the part where hes talking about how happy he is to work really late and how good he does his job when there's no one bothering him.
@@nateconley.6209 He is not exploited, lol. He doesn't work late because he is being forced to. He has the freedom to choose and chooses the night. That's literally part of the meaning of the song. Anyway, thinking more about it I think it is about rejecting this over-discipline without meaning when he says "the rest of you like you're the TSA". I don't think it is so much about clean-girl core now, but I still think it is about freedom instead of forced discipline
This month the loneliness was really crushing me without mercy. Love love love how this song made me not only love myself, but fall in love with music all over again. Its been a while since i felt this happy just bc I’m able to listen.. ❤️ Just the right amount of sweetness for me, thank you, Hozier!
The lines “Soft as the rain, pretty as a vine, and sweet as a grape” are soooo double edged because we know the rain isn’t always soft, vines aren’t always pretty, and grapes can often be sour!!
I don't think that's what he meant, the rest of the song doesn't suggest it. I think h'es just saying that she's good and there's nothing wrong with her.
Yeah but even in this irony its not demeaning the other person. Sour grapes are still preferred, heavy rain is still needed and all the vines are useful. It's just that he doesn't like it. What he meant could be different to every person who listens to this. All about perspectives @@miyamotomusashi4556
It's the spaces, places, the times where the two energies, personalities complement and make something bigger, brighter and more wonderful that make this song hopeful to me.

@@andreagutierrez5338 This! Scrolled for this comment. He’s saying you’re too good for me. Which I’ve been told before. It’s like saying it’s not you it’s me with the understanding that if I was a better person you’d be perfect. 😭

this song reminds me of the lyric from Nobody on Wasteland Baby where he says “I’d be appalled if I saw you ever try to be a saint, I wouldn’t fall for someone I thought couldn’t misbehave”
I love that lyric!! It kinda comforts me, it generally reminds me that it’s okay to not be perfect and follow all the rules in life all the time. Because imperfection is actually more interesting than perfection. That’s how much I’ve analyzed that one line lol 😄
I am unreasonably upset that this song has been out for so long and I only just listened to the full thing for the first time this morning. I am OBSESSED
Right when you feel sorry for her, she's the morning sun, then a vine, and then a grape, and then into the wine vat. That's good poetry. And this isn't a "it's not you" breakup. There are times when you know that someone is ready to sign on with you but also that it would be a bad idea for them, So you bow out, and the sweetness is a compliment and the reason.
This is the most magical way to reject someone and tell them that you’re not meant to be together. I’m going through this right now so this song makes my heart ache. This man’s voice UGH 🥹
@@Amy-sx7hwI think ironically it's not even dirty. It talks about oral sex so respectfully and lovingly. Not to say there aren't any dirty/horny Hozier songs. We all know there are:)) But this one (moment's silence) doesn't feel dirty

I love that hozier is getting the recognition he deserves. I also hate it because tickets for his show were PRICEY. but totally worth it. I can't wait until August 🥰🥰🥰
Just went through one of those "It's not you, it's not me, we just want different things" kind of breakups and this song is both calling me out and comforting me about it. Absolutely beautiful as always
I'm 45 seconds in and I paused. This is what I imagine pure Serotonin feels like, injected straight into the aorta. Thank you, I think we all needed this.

This is my anthem!! I go to sleep at 3 or later. The best time to go to sleep is when the sun comes up and the birds start to sing! I made costumes for plays for years and I had to work that late to avoid the phone and other interruptions. Thanks Hozier - not everyone understands this and just thinks we are sloths. Do another song about people trying to give you 7 or 8 AM appointments! Terrifying!
Lol! 😆 Have you ever seen the old black&white footage of The Beatles concerts, where the audience is jumping up and down and screaming? Those are fangirl origin story folks haha
Congratulations on your No.1! Much deserved to a fantastic artist that brings generations together, myself, my 14 year old and my 17 year old love all your music and can't wait for a fun filled night of memories at our first gig together in Glasgow!🥰

Ahhhh the Irish poeticism....we are the best lol ☘️😁
Right when you feel sorry for her, she's the morning sun, then a vine, and then a grape, and then into the wine vat. That's good poetry. And this isn't a "it's not you" breakup. There are times when you know that someone is ready to sign on with you but also that it would be a bad idea for them, So you bow out, and the sweetness is a compliment and the reason.
"You treat your mouth as Heaven's gate."
The multiple meanings and sexy imagery of this line.
This made me giggle
It could be like for oral stuff....or it could be like a preacher/ sweet talks
I'm swooning...🤭
I thought the cult personally 😂
@@emilystjacques5238BDBDBDB YOURE SO REAL
As a diabetic, anytime I see something that I shouldn't eat, now my brain just sings, "you're to sweet for meeeeeeeee"
That’s pretty cute haha
As another diabetic, i relate too (when im in campus or my parents aren't on sight)
😂
This is the most magical way to reject someone and tell them that you’re not meant to be together. I’m going through this right now so this song makes my heart ache.
This man’s voice UGH 🥹
Look at it this way: being another's perfection is infinitely better than being no-one's
Hi to everyone who’s listening and scrolling through the comments. I hope you’re having a good day and if not that tomorrow is a good day ❤
aww thank you! I wish the same for you :)
Thanks have a good night from 🇵🇪
Thanks from Egypt 🇪🇬
same to you doll 💕💕
I needed to hear that, thank you 💕
"I will take my whiskey neeeeeat" that part alone is enough to melt souls
Yeah I know I have no idea what note that’s called😭😭
The first line of this song that i heard and was immediately sold 😂
Billboard Hot 100 🚀🚀🚀
Hozier one of the last popular artists that still make amazing music.
I am never recovering from his falsetto in this song. I could drink his voice like whiskey, intoxicated by every word
I KNOW RIGHTTTTTT? IT'S ABSOLUTELY NEAT.🤌🏻
This man has no bad songs
Well, more like 'dirty" than bad @@loyaltyoptimismversatilityerud
@@Amy-sx7hwI think ironically it's not even dirty. It talks about oral sex so respectfully and lovingly.
Not to say there aren't any dirty/horny Hozier songs. We all know there are:)) But this one (moment's silence) doesn't feel dirty
its a masterpiecr too@@loyaltyoptimismversatilityerud
True
@@mrswarley2602this song is about oral sex?
This singer's voice is too sweet for a convincing delivery of the lyrics. I love the sweet voice btw
The voice, the sound, the beat, the lyrics...Perfect!!
I never was a morning person. Thanks, Hozier!
He said "nocturnal freaks RISE"
The Good Omens edits are going to devour this song
I was looking for this comment! omg thx
Crowley to Aziraphale. ❤️❤️❤️

Hozier is just Ineffable Husbands CODED, [it's Ineffable teehee]

Nothing to say except amazing. Thank you Hozier. My love for music is back.
no one is talking about:
"as sweet as a grape
if you can sit in a barrel
maybe I'll wait
until that day"
enough for me.
"hey you're sweet 'n all, but maybe you could ferment a bit? maybe stop telling me to quit going to bed at ungodly hours yeah?"
It is the most striking line
yup the funniest & most biting line for me, setup was great with all the compliments previous them boom go chill in a barrel let's see if I'll wait
Amen 👌🏻
I love the undertone vocals in in the chorus, they’re so subtle
Didn’t hear it until I read your comment
A masterpiece in 2024? . Thank you Sr , you never disappoint :')
I love that hozier is getting the recognition he deserves. I also hate it because tickets for his show were PRICEY. but totally worth it. I can't wait until August 🥰🥰🥰
Just went through one of those "It's not you, it's not me, we just want different things" kind of breakups and this song is both calling me out and comforting me about it. Absolutely beautiful as always
I'm 45 seconds in and I paused.
This is what I imagine pure Serotonin feels like, injected straight into the aorta.
Thank you, I think we all needed this.
truly poetic!
NUMBER ONE IN THE UK CHARTS! ❤ SO HAPPY! 😈😇
Great lyrics and I love the bells. #1 song.
The only gift I'd wake up for is Hozier. And it was well worth it.
hoziers voice is literally heavenly
#1 song in the US
Once you hear the church bells during the second part of the first chorus…. Chills. Hozier never disappoints. ❤
Did I stay up all night for this?
Yes…..
Was it worth it?
ABSOLUTELY
we're on vampire hours like Hozier
I wake up at half five every day and still wasn't early enough. He's Irish so can he please respect our timezone rather than americans' please I can't be doing this 😭
@@mab6201 I tend to avoid youtube concerts. I maybe should have clarified but I'm not remotely Irish, we just share a timezone lol.
The bells in the background at 1:27 are amazing
Exactly what are these bellls called i love them everytime i hear them in a song
they're wedding bells@@yohjinonoki- i saw someone else say that the wedding bells are there because he can still envision a future with the other person even though he's holding himself back to protect the other person's innocence
actually sobbing
Sounds like wedding bell😢s
@@zaczaexec2945 i tried searching on yt for that sound effect i didnt find any can you help
Haha I got to this comment at the perfect timing- they’re incredible!!!!
This is my anthem!! I go to sleep at 3 or later. The best time to go to sleep is when the sun comes up and the birds start to sing! I made costumes for plays for years and I had to work that late to avoid the phone and other interruptions. Thanks Hozier - not everyone understands this and just thinks we are sloths. Do another song about people trying to give you 7 or 8 AM appointments! Terrifying!
Love to see Hozier finally admit he communes with the spirits of the earth
CRYING SCREAMING THROWING UP
Lol! 😆 Have you ever seen the old black&white footage of The Beatles concerts, where the audience is jumping up and down and screaming? Those are fangirl origin story folks haha
yo
I am so FERAL for this man, it's ridiculous. This song is so good, but all his songs are masterful..
What a voice, just incredible ❣️
You know, you're bright as the morning, as soft as the rain
Pretty as a vine, as sweet as a grape❤
Finally, I NEED this song injected into my veins.
BITING AND KNAWING AT THE BARS OF MY ENCLOSURE!!!!
ME TOOO
SAMEEEEEEE!!!!
Congratulations on your No.1! Much deserved to a fantastic artist that brings generations together, myself, my 14 year old and my 17 year old love all your music and can't wait for a fun filled night of memories at our first gig together in Glasgow!🥰
Thank you RUclips recommendations for showing me this masterpiece, I can’t stop replaying
