#Hozier #SongAssociation #ELLE
You can tell that he breathes music every second, he really chose the right path as a musician
You would think that, but in his recent interview with Zane Lowe he discusses how he actually doesn't lol
@@DonPasquale_0:21 0:24 i want to go see him please
@@DonPasquale_huh
@@DonPasquale_ I think though when he was younger he was immersed in it.
he had no choice lol
It's kind of sad realizing how unusual it is for a male artist to speak so beautifully and highly of so many female artists.
Uhn. I realize that now too.
More of an issue with publications and their interviews tbf. Im sure the vast majority of male artists would love to share their enjoyment of female artists they look up to.
@@Eric-bp2hi It's giving "not all men 🥺🥺🥺"
@@communist_oranges looking for issues that aren't there bud
He's so refreshing to me in general.
Hozier singing Ariana Grande was not on my 2023 bingo card but i enjoyed every second of it.
He has done a full cover of Problem
boy do I have great news for you. he's covered Problem.
Ur obviously not a fan. Hes expressed his admiration many times.
Just because they didn't know he did a cover doesn't mean they're not a fan. Not everyone has time to dive into everything an artist does@@meha1839
@@meha1839shut up lol
I'm a simple woman. I see Hozier, I scream and then click.
Someone: How many times? Me: Yes!
It's a common vice, I can confirm
MY MOM THOUGHT I WAS HURT 💀
We're just simple women
SAME THOUGH
Best song association EVER. He really has the voice of an angel and brought up all these unique and fantastic songs. Forest man did it again
forest man HAHAHAHA
He was written by a woman. Simply the hottest person on earth, the perfect combination of inteligence, looks, talent and sensitivity. A true gift to us mere mortals.
Couldn't agree more with something in my life.
true true true
💯
This is astoundingly accurate
Like coollen hoover?
His little "etcetera etcetera" each time he sings a song of his own kills me
I need Elle to start making a playlist for each person that comes on the show cause that just sounds like the most personal playlist for a person. These are the first songs to come to someone’s mind and i think that’s really cool
I'm signing this petition
I second this!
Yes, we want this!!!
Sounds like a cool idea, but I strongly disagree about it being a peek into their soul, the way you imply. It's just the first songs that come to mind during a game where the objective is to give a right answer under the pressure of a ticking clock, so people are not gonna say the most personal song they associate to that word, but simply the song that the word evokes more rapidly to them in that one brief moment. I like to play along whenever I watch one of these, and in this case my answer for "stars" was I See Stars from the Mean Girls musical: a song I don't like from a musical that I only mildly enjoy, but that has "stars" right in the title and is fresh in my memory because I listened to it less than a month ago. Not a favorite, just a quick throwaway to score a point.
I need a full cover of each one of these songs. They were incredible.
There is a video of him singing jealous guy
there is a cover of problem on spotify by him
That’s all I could think of. I need a cover of Problem by Ariana Grande
@@c.assa. A thousand and two blessings on your head. This is now my new favorite thing.
my sentiments exactly!
This is a person who knows, understands and loves music. This is by far the best Song Association to date. Unlike other artists, who naturally go for their own lyrics and always seem to repeat the same song, he shared so many genres and each version was beautiful to listen to.
Love him but he used like 4 of his own
Jacob collier?
I mean they're literally fishing for them to promote their own music, they intentionally pick words from their new songs. Also did you see Lizzo, Trixie Mattel, Ariana Grande???
Liz Gillies was the best one in terms of knowledge of music
interesting i’ll be honest i haven’t watched a lot but of the ~20+ i have none of them ever repeated songs or sang their own more than one or two times max
the fact that he’s just casually singing and he still sounds like he does live???
Dude if he could just record a lullaby album or something like his voice is so relaxing it’s angelic
exactly my thoughts!
I would listen to a whole album of his Irish singing
Or him speaking, like on the Calm app or something
I'd never sleep, but that's okay. I can just listen to It other times.
I don’t know how to explain but every song he sang sounded like his own songs
He’s magical
I honestly didn't recognize half of the songs because they just become his own when he signs them, they sound like his songs 😍
I just love how much he is just praising other artists here, especially ones he has worked with (Brandi/Maren)
very proud of him for not singing his own song for the second one cause Almost (Sweet Music) was the first thing i thought of 😂 the way he talks about other people and music is so beautifully full of love and admiration
Ikr as soon as it showed sweet I started singing "I wouldn't know where to start"
For me was Cherry Wine (the blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine)
i thought of work song lol 😅 “my baby’s sweet as can be, she’d give me toothaches just from kissing me”
Same!!! @@yourawfulhearttosong
What a beautiful human, he sings each word from the heart, even in a simple interview!
Hozier is like a unicorn we don't get to see much of him on social Media doing interviews, Hey, we do count on you to save modern Music. I think this will always be my favorite video on this channel.
been a fan of his music for more than 10 years now and this is the first time i watched an interview of his, HE IS CAPTIVATING AND WITTY.
Oh he's excellent in interviews, well worth checking out some of the recent ones on the press round for the new record. ❤
3:14 - 3:17 when he says "ill tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife" and he looks up at the camera while singing in his honey sweet voice... the spiritual DOUBLE TAKE i did
1:55 find as wine explains him fr
Omg same 😭
I can never get over how beautiful his voice is
can i just say how refreshing it is for a musician who's not necessarily in the pop genre (despite being quite popular in their own genre) to praise those who ARE in the pop genre and industry? maybe it's been a while since i've seen indie/alt artists talk about pop music, but it used to be these musicians would act high and mighty, better-than-thou because they're not making pop music, but the way hozier celebrates all music is just so, so nice and should be the bare minimum at this point
Rename this video “Me being completely enamored with Hozier’s entire existence for eight minutes and fifteen seconds.”
You can tell how in tune he is with music in the way he knows how far before the word in question he can start singing to still have it fit in the timing. So many songs where he hit it with one or two seconds left, purely out of love for its context in the song it's from.
Wow the Hozier and Ariana Grande crossover was ABSOLUTELY something we needed to hear❤️
He has a full cover on spotify...it might still be here on KZhead too 😊
@@amandafeliciano542 omg I totally forgot he did cover it….thank you for reminding me😭❤️
His a cappella casual voice is the prettiest thing on this planet
*adorable little nervous giggle* “I went back to Arianna Grande again.” - Very relatable sir.
How can you not love this guy?! I saw him live a few years ago and after the gig he introduced everyone - I mean everyone on his team, not only the band. I'd never heard anyone do it. Much respect for him
Saw him this summer and he still does that, from the sound guys to the stage photographer. Amazing!
Yep saw him a couple weeks ago, he still does this and then a “credits” runs on the screen after the concert listing literally every single person remotely related to the concert. First time I’ve ever seen an artist do that
Everything about this man is so soothing. I would watch him literally watch paint dry and it would be an incredible experience. Thank you Elle
He could sing me the alphabet song and I would be mesmerized. His vocals are so beautiful and I love his range of music!
His concert was still the best concert ive ever been to, his live vocals sound just like the album. He oozes talent its disgusting and lovely at the same.
I’m seeing him twice in a week in June! Hoping to have a blast 💥
It's funny - the moment I saw this in my recommended I knew he's gonna be the guy to get all 15. Just... couldn't imagine him sitting there and thinking and not getting anything, you know? You can tell this guys' head is FULL of great music and combined with his very calm demeanor and laidback attitude it makes him perfect for quick musical memory games like this.
pretending that they were all within 10 seconds is just disingenuous editing though lmao
His cover of Problem is one of the best songs ever recorded in the Radio 1 Live Lounge. Same could be said of his cover of Sam Smith's Lay Me Down
Hozier is the definition of enchanting.
hozier quietly singing is my new favorite thing.
I have never been so in love with someone i feel like I’m a teenage fangirl again
"Thank you for watching me"?!?! Excuse me Sir, thank YOU for existing
Can we just have a Hozier album where he just sings Acapella like this. His voice is so smooth and you can really hear how beautiful it is.
I honestly thought he was going to sing 'Say my NAME' by Destiny's Child. He did a nice cover of it for Spotify Sessions (as well as one of Ariana Grande's "Problem").
I love his music it's just ethereal. His voice makes me smile.
I have never been so excited for a song association episode!
the fact that he didn't sing Sweet Thing by Van Morrison for the word "sweet" despite having the most heavenly cover of that song...
Agreed, that one always makes me cry 😂
now I need a Ariana and hozier collab
For the people who were floored by Hozier singing a little tidbit of "Problem" in his first album's special edition (Hozier), he sang the full version of it !!!!! (He sort of threw in "Regulate" too and it sounds HEAVENLY)
7:19 when i saw talk, i was truly hoping for his own song, it's one of my fav ones. but, i appreciate his choice too 🥰
Agreed one of my favsssss
Hozier and Gaga need to do a Jazz/Folk album together. Rufus Wainwright and Natalie Merchant should be on that album too!
I could listen to him all day
HE IS A LEGEND HE IS THE MOMENT
Hozier singing one of my favorite The Frames songs is the joy of my day. His voice is perfection.💚
I NEED HIM BIBLICALLY
GIRL
He is such an incredible musician! Love that we thought of the same songs when the word "Story" came up.
I could listen to this man speak about anything for the rest of my life and be perfectly content
What an incredible musician. He enchanted me with every single one of his notes. And what beautiful songs came to his mind.
I was going to comment how this is the best song association yet and how much of an incredible artist, songwriter, singer and everything else Hozier is, but everyone in the comments have already covered it all. I'm glad he's recognized as the legend he already is and will forever be.
Every time he sings he has his own style. It sounds like a whole different song. I love it. I love his unique choices, have a taste of the kind of music he enjoys and inspired by 🤎
His voice is so perfect and soothing 🥰 MASSIVE feels!
He seems like just a genuinely kind, incredible person. An artist at his core. One of my fave yet!
His voice doing 'cry me a river' was just silky perfection 😘👌
This was so brilliant thank you Elle so much, I've missed seeing this man and all his wonderfully endearing mannerisms and soothing voice
This is such a delight!! I love how much Hozier makes a point to compliment and showcase other artists!
His voice is so perfect and soothing MASSIVE feels!. I love his music it's just ethereal. His voice makes me smile..
His voice is so beautiful, I’m in awe 😭❤️
OMG his voice is so beautiful, and his soul seems to be so gentle. Amo amo amo su voz.
Ugh I love his whole vibe and the voice is just beautiful ❤❤
4:54 I want a full cover of Cry Me a River by Hozier like right now
i could listen to him do this all day!! He just has such an effortless voice, it’s beautiful ✨
he is perfection, but here especially. his hair his knees his eyes his voice i adore him
Hozier is so much fun. And he's just so chill
Hozier is just like me!! Gushing over Paul Mescal, Piers Brosnan & Cillian Murphy!!!
You make EVERYTHING sound beautiful! PLEASE make an acapella lullaby album 💖
he's so kind, a lovely person ❤
Hearing him sing all of these songs. Are just awesome
i love him so much, Happy 10 years to take me to church!!!!
He voice is so enchanting and he is absolutely gorgeous. ❤️
With the word “sweet” he could’ve sung his song cherry wine which I love ❤
I knew he would nail this! He is such a great lyricist!!!
I love how even without a microphone his voice sounds studio recorded
He has such a soft voice! I really enjoyed this video.
HOZIER please do more covers- they are beautiful
him just humming the songs is the most beautiful sound ever
Is insane the way I love this man and his mesmerizing voice🥺🥺
His voice and demeanor are so lovely
How anyone can come away from this not only alive but also not wanting him is insane to me
💀
Real lol
Could've done the whole package deal and thrown in No Tears Left To Cry as well. 😜 His voice is mesmerizing! Also love how he manages to sing while biting his nails, lol!
I need him to do a cover of each song!! He absolutely makes each song his own not only cause of his range but because he deeply appreciates everything about those songs!! From the artist to the lyrics!!! Hes amazing!!!❤❤❤❤
I love this man more than I'd ever love myself
3:20 Kiesza’s cover is a must watch, as well, if you’ve not seen. Incredible 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Hozier is always a gem, his voice is so angelic my mind is always lost when he sings 💛
I can't even begin describe Hozier. He's just so beautiful and likeable ❤if he was a drink he'd be a bittersweet coffee or something🤣 i just love him and I'm so honored and blessed to have seen him in concert for the first time this year it was an amazing and fun time. We're so lucky to experience him as a person and artist.
I saw him last night and truly have never been so in awe of an artist
no matter how many times i hear him sing i can never get over how beautiful his voice is
I like his versions of the songs even more!
I feel like my soul's been waiting for this all my life.
He’s so soft-spoken, i never would have imagined that for someone that bleeds poetry like his life depends on it.
everything about this man is beautiful from his voice, music taste and ofc the visual himself
This was lovely. Thank you
I could hear him sing for years non stop ❤
Wow this is the first time I saw Hozier being featured like this, bravo👏👏👏🎼🎤🎸
He is such a known artist but for some reason I still feel like he is underrated
I adore you, Hozier! Exceptionally beautiful voice, lovely face and gorgeous hair😁 One of my favorite musicians these days❤️
