Just when you think that surely every love song has been written - that the use of the English language has been exhausted to express the depth of emotions- then there’s Shrike...
This and Holocene- Bon Iver are my favorite
Isn't he just amazing!!!
Chilaire Arts #same ♥️✨
This old passion.. Just gives me everytime the vibe of the old never forgotten songwriters I mean the very very best... He is a new time genius thank you so much for your passion in whriting and singing your own songs I love them so much tree guy ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ ps: every generation has its own musical genius that's ours!!!
Very true!
1:27 this is what you hear when you die and your soul leaves your body to ascend to heaven
I think this is one of the best live Shrike performances I've heard so far.
And that’s the truth!!😃
Agreed!
Absolutely. The depth and range of feeling is breathtaking.
I’ve yet to see one that wasn’t a masterpiece.
I saw him this same year at garden of the gods in Portland Oregon and my goodness what a performance that was. Hozier is ethereal
Ive never heard him enunciate so much it made me realize how many lyrics i was mishearing
His accent comes through so strong here.
This is one of the most beautiful performances of one of the most beautiful songs on the album by one of the most beautiful artists of our time.
Listened to this about 15 times in a row. His voice, the lyrics. I liked him before and now I’m officially obsessed.
Unf. When that Irish accent rises and falls, I am swept away.
The raw emotion in this one is breathtaking. You are literally transported to another dimension where only his voice guides you.
This is the most beautiful performance I've seen yet of this song. I can't even describe how it makes me feel.
I totally agree!
This guy is a true genius!
Oh my god the double strings on the violon! This might be my favourite version of the song, they are so talented. You can literary feel like you're in Ireland
I was just asking myself if that effect in the sound of the violin could be two strings played simultaneously... thank you for your enlightening comment! :-)
It’s a style of playing called rolling fiddle (rolling violin). I learned it from my grandpa back when He tried teaching me to play music. It was always my favorite. The violin intro to Free by Zac Brown is a great example. By the way, we saw Hozier in Dallas and it was one of the best sounding shows ever.
Wonderful ❣️ love from Ireland
That sound to me is Dixie, but either way its wonderful.
I think this is better than the live performance shot in Windmill studios.
100% agree. Magnificent.
2:57 when he hits that bum note and cringes but it actually adds to the song's emotional vibe
That was a very "bon iver" ish note haha
Such a perfectionist. Just goes to show you the standard he holds himself to. It's such a beautiful performance
@rose petal nah the way he looked away that had to have been he didn’t mean to do that, he changes his songs a lot Crome performance to performance but he never makes it sound like he fails to hit a note
The sound quality on this version is off the charts. My favorite version of Shrike. I cannot believe he performed this in my city BEFORE I discovered him :(
One of the best song of 2018, undoubly.
I couldn't utter my love when it counted
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
The words hung above
But never would form
Like a cry at the final breath that is drawn
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
And I had no idea on what ground I was found in
All of that goodness is goin' with you now
Then when I met you my virtues uncounted
All of my goodness is gone with you now
Dragging along, following your form
Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
As a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
I fled to the city with so much discounted
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
I was housed by warmth
But I was transformed
By your grounded and giving
And darkening scorn
Remember me love, when I am reborn
As a shrine to your sharp
And glorious thorn.
lovely lyrics. I think it may be founded rather than found in. Either makes sense.
Thank you Jennifer for the Lyrics. ♥️✌
I love you
What a guitarist.
dude is an absolute god of music
What an incredible song & an amazing, captivatiing & moving interpretation
Favourite Shrike performance ❤
Thanks! We feel the same way :)

Love the lyrics to this song! He’s a really great poet. And the rest is obvious.
Best live performance of this tune.
Truly one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard.
I just adore him and all that’s inside his heart and mind!
"Words hung above
but never would form
Like a cry at the final breath
that is drawn"
I'ts hard to breathe through these lyrics! This man came to visit us from another planet to teach us the depth of what real love can be through his lyrics...GAWD I LOVE HIM!
This is an absolutely captivating performance, and I'm astounded it's only received 238 views in its first 12 hours.
Borne of pure talent and true emotion, as always. I'm inspired and moved. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing version of this song. Hopefully you will perform it just like this at ACL in March.
Good Lord that violin takes my breathe away
This gut makes me wanna drop everything and move to Irland.
Wow 😍
It was only when I meditated on the lyrics that I was even more blown away by this magnificent song....:
I couldn't utter my love when it counted
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
Words hung above, but never would form
Like a cry at the final breath that is drawn
Remember me love when I'm reborn
As a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
Had no idea on what ground I was founded
All of that goodness is gone with you now
Then when I met you my virtues uncounted
All of my goodness is gone with you now
Dragging along, following your form
Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
I fled to the city with so much discounted
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted
Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
I was housed by your warmth, but I was transformed
By your grounded and giving and darkening scorn
Remember me love, when I'm reborn
As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
Give me back my ♥

Kb.: fél órával ezelőtt hallgattam, HOZIER nagy rajongója vagyok, szenzációsan énekel!

I’d love to see what kind of beautiful poetry he and Aurora could get up to together.

Alex holding the stage .
Hup !!
He uses words that so many have,so many times,but what he does with them is so much more meaningingful,or poignant,or painful,or all of the above and more.
Not for me
Ach Liam ! You give our family a bad name! 😁😉
