      i agree ,when he says i needed time alone to write and surely perfect how each song ,in other interviews it was 3 years! as a very sensitive person myself ,i struggle to get the depth of my thoughts out. his awardness is apealing because ,hes real +frightened ,but he does it any way.

      nailed it, lily! i have started to love people who are messy thinkers and have fluid personalities, who dont really know who they are, an air of unsure-ity around them always. perhaps they are unsure because they never settle for an answer and keep seeking the truth, keep going beyond, never let themselves get comfortable where they are. my friend once said, "i hate people who put labels on themselves. if you know who you are (which you probably dont), im not interested".

    His music isn't like most in the fact that he touches a cord that connects all people. He doesn't come off as pretentious and grand. He is simply expressing his thoughts and feelings. There are musicians and then there are artist. Musicians entertain through song where as artists tell a story and connects through song. He is an artist.

    Sometimes I just listen to interviews and keep analysing the body language and the way people talk. It seems like he is always thinking before he says something, just to be as much humble as possible. I mean, people always ask about the success or whats like being a success and I think he just wants to talk about the problems of the world and at the same way being so humble to not say: "hello guys, i'm much more than take me to church." Finally I can say we're having the rare privillege to listen to a true genius of our time, this man could end a war just with a few minute chat with some general or sth. He's so peacful i could hear him for a whole day.

    8:38 this was an amazing point, and one that needed to be stated. Its all too often that when a celebrity gets involved in a protest or organization of good cause that the subject changes to the celebrity, not what is most important; the reason we are organizing to speak out, protest, or stand in solidarity in the first place. Its a huge problem, and one that discredits the hard work of those that have truly put in work, effort, and energy to help end the issue in question.

    A Jewish girl told me decades ago "Irish men are the best men on the planet" Hozier wasn't even born yet! Lol

    Take Me to Church was the crashing wave that was needed during this time of healing wounds. It surely was a wake up call.

    12 years ago he sang in Anuna, indeed he did. Check out his work with Anuna, just search for Anuna with his name.

      Polunin make a video to TMTC independent of Hozier who already had an official video for that song. Hozier showed his appreciation by asking Polunin to be in the Movement video. This was before Polunin's apparent political opinions were known. It's doubtful that Hozier would work with him again if Polunin really does support Putin and Trump.

    I mean a lot of songs on his first album were pretty political and had some pretty pointed messages. Hardly out of step for him.
