Lyrics:
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her

This song has so much of the energy as one of my favorite lines of poetry, “They asked ‘Do you love her to death?’ I said ‘Speak of her over my grave and watch how she brings me back to life.’”
Which poem is this? ❤️
I'd like to know what poem too! :)
@Samantha Parker same
It’s an arabic poem by Qays Ibn al-Mulawwah, not Mahmoud Darwish.
@@leyanf4951 thank you
Crying because I don't think I'd ever experience the kind of love hozier sings about.
ur pp and username indicate a kickass personality so u will
I teared up without really knowing why, but your reason hits me
Same
Oh same. Dont hurt me like this please 😔
Every one is created for a purpose and has the right to get a chance or chances in life. Dont worry, happy times come when least expected.
“No grave can hold my body down I’ll crawl home to her”, Good lord this song always gives me chills. The utter devotion in his voice and in the lyrics makes my heart bleed with intensity and hope…
You explained my feelings about those lyrics perfectly
kzhead.info/sun/qqhtg7GsfaSAo5E/bejne.htmlsi=E_TfKtkB_k05r-9E Borrowed lyrics, but still beautiful ❤ an homage to real music.
@@Sam-ke8tche songs of his partner 😭
this is what angels sound like
Makes me cry, I will forever be a zombie to my wife. Lol
You ever have one of those dreams in which you meet, fall in love with, and live a whole life with someone you've never met? This song fills me with the same sense of loss I feel upon waking.
The bittersweet pang of this...
I feel you
do you smoke dmt before?
"Our Great Depression... is our lives."
Nah tbh, I'm not that desperate, tho the song is one of my fav.
"Lay me gently in the cold dark earth; No grave can hold my body down, I'll crawl home to her" GOOD LORD THIS LINE MAKES ME FEEL THINGS I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW I COULD FEEL
She gives toothaches just from kissing me. Wow the lyrics
@@anweshagoswami5668 my favorite lines
2+2=22 Green is my favorite color of the alphabet.
I know right?!
Someone needs to get laid, BAD
If someone asks me how I want to be loved I would simply tell them "It would be something similar to a hozier song" because words can't express enough how he makes love sound so fiery, so tender, so poetic and all consuming whenever I listen to his work. Hozier makes loving feel like a religion I have to worship every single day rather than just be something I should acknowlege its existence. Plus, watching this reinforced my big fat crush on Irish guys, that can rock a long mane of hair and has a knack of twisting words like a medieval bard. My single ass quivers in delight and admiration at the thought.
Girll those words you put in...wow..
@@chocolatewafflez2454 omggg wasn't expecting this compliment. 🙈🙈🙈 Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
I feel this intensely.
You know you have a crush on the tall Irish guy when he becomes a character in your dreams 🙄.
us Irish lads do know how to put our charm on 🇮🇪🇮🇪 Hozier is probably our best singer
The fact that somebody wrote this for a woman is just magnificent !
Hozier has this ability to sing from other peoples' perspectives. It's like he can crawl into the lives of other people and describe their lives. My mom had that ability; she was murdered in 1989 (at age 19) by persons unknown, and when I inherited her journals she had written these poems and songs that described the struggles of people she'd never met. It was the 80's; no google, no internet access, just intuition. Hozier has that same effect and affect. It's incredible to listen to. Like Amy Winehouse
The earth is fluff to this Woman. I believe she was great because she was able to give birth to such a wonderful person as you. And I really hope, that her's death was easy, and her's life was interesting, and she is now, there with a calm soul ... In the soft ground. God bless you!
Wow. Thank u for sharing this. I’m so so sorry for the pain of loosing your mother. I hope she is Resting In Peace
@@yourfavoriteoompaloompa139 thank you sweet one ❤️ Unfortunately my story is like so many others. And of course, other people will always have it harder than others. I was blessed with caring grandparents who raised me, and a stepmom who loves me and my children, and through all the bad in my life, I've learned to appreciate the good things and wonderful people. Things really do happen for a reason, and because of my mom's untimely passing and the passion my family and I share about finding her killer(s) I was able to become nice and compassionate and caring. Don't feel bad for me, because I'm living life the way my mom would have wanted; with perfect love and happiness and trust. But your words mean a great deal. Be safe, and be happy. Blessed be.
Have you considered publishing her poems? This hit my like a revelation!
@@jamesbarnes6818 once my grandma passes then yes, absolutely. She's really distraught even after 33 years. And her other daughter passed in 2020 so she just feels vulnerable. All of us grandkids shower her with love and attention, and we try to distract her with baby showers and wedding announcements and her great childrens' accomplishments. I think she'd appreciate notion, but it would make her relive things she doesn't deserve to relive
hosier said "fuck it i'll just invent love" and then wrote this
*HOZIER
This comment is everything!
pog
At best he is revisiting (not inventing) what love used to be like not that long ago. Sad the newer generations dont know anything about that life.
@@misswebb1991 newer generations don't know what love is? Ffs 🙄
I would ask to play this at my funeral but a song about crawling out of your grave might not be occasion appropriate
Imma born again Baptist and imma have my brothers ride Harleys on each side of the hearse on the way to the grave yard bumping highway to hell when I die so I'd think you'd be ok lol
Hozier has played this at a funeral for a young woman before
I say go for it 😊💕😙
It was played at my cousins funeral. He left his wife and 3 month old girl behind. When this played there was not a dry eye in sight
I'm literally listening to this again because it's on my funeral playlist lmao
Used this for our first dance last night at our wedding. It was absolutely perfect.
Congratulations!
I walked down the aisle to this last month and it’s such a beautiful song.
CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations!!
I walked down the aisle to it! So perfect.
"If the Lord don't forgive me, I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me." Such powerful words. This is what I hope to find some day.
My wife and i dated when we were in high school we got engaged but were too young and immature; so we ended up not working out then. I moved on with my life not liking to dwell on the past. I told myself I no longer loved her. That year work song came out. And even though her and I no longer communicated and I swore up and down we would never get back together, this song would shake me to my very core and I would always think about her. Four years later we lived very very different lives and in even more different worlds and we both happened to be in our home town at the same time for a couple days and we crossed paths by simple chance. Those hours we spent together before she left the next morning were more meaningful than the four years before that day. It was as if we never spent a day apart. Today is the one year of when we started dating again. And we married February 16. It still shakes me how much i love this girl... Edit. I never expected to have so much feedback on this comment. But a little more detail for those who care. After we had our seemingly perfect night together she left town the next day and I tried to think little of it (I told myself we will never be again) but one day whilst playing my ps4 I called her out of the blue and we talked on the phone for about 6 hours that night. We hung up and did the same thing a couple nights in a row. Then one night I FaceTime her and we spent all night FaceTiming. A day or two pass and we started watching movies together and even getting the same dinner in order to be as close as possible without being near one another. One night our movie ends and we are both lying down drifting off to sleep facing the camera she says half asleep "I still love you". with my heart in my stomach i simply say I love you too. It was Thursday night when this happened. She lived about 9 hours away and I told her I'm going to visit her in a couple weeks or a month and she said jokingly/half serious "why not this weekend". "I work a lot and need to make plans' I told her. But something about this girl always made me spontaneous. So I switched shifts the next day with my buddy and with little to no planning I drove out to see her. We had a great weekend together and we talked about taking it slow and seeing where things go. The Sunday before I left she showed me in a little momentos box that she still had her engagement ring and her bands too. This made my heart sing it truly did. We spent a week or so "taking it slow" but we clearly both wanted to be together so we became official. 😇 the next hurdle was me telling my mother (my mom loves loved this girl very much. And my wife has a huge amount of respect for my mother so it was very important to her that she accept her back again) when I initially told my mom about us getting back together she instantly rejected the notion and did not want me to date her again. She said the only way she will accept her again is if she still had her engagement ring. My wife then gf quickly produced a picture with it on her hand. And my mom laughed and was happy for us. This happened late June early July. By late October I proposed to her and we flew to Canada and eloped in February. (Reasons as to why we did this is a whole other story thats us in my profile pic) lol
Awww so sweet. Btw Feb 16 is my birthday💕
God this made me cry.
@@benjbayot6879 im 15 feb
Such a sweet story. Good luck!
I love the story
Can we talk about these dancers.. the choreo is amazing. It's like their souls are connected.. like they are more than in love.. something deeper.. if you told me this was a dance company and they are nothing more than dance partners, I couldn't believe you.. they seem so in tune and in love.. which makes this song so much more
I belong to this dance style, to be with a partner is to take a soul mate. We spend months with each other. There is love making that takes place, not this hardcore porn you see, no wham bam thank you ma'am. It can take hours. I'm glad you enjoyed this number.
@@mattysee24 That was oddly specific, yet also informative. Thank _you_ .
Have you seen the original? The red head (Jillian) and her partner (Frank I think) are absolutely magnificent, breathtaking, magical
@@CoreDancer22 for real...each time I see the video they are the ones that grab my attention...I don't know, but there is a sweet passion between them that feels so real
Yessss I feel like it ties in so well to the meaning of the songggg.....
*Lyrics:* _Boys, workin' on empty Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat? I just think about my baby I'm so full of love I could barely eat There's nothing sweeter than my baby I'd never want once from the cherry tree 'Cause my baby's sweet as can be She give me toothaches just from kissin' me_ _When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold, dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her_ _Boys, when my baby found me I was three days on a drunken sin I woke with her walls around me Nothin' in her room but an empty crib And I was burnin' up a fever I didn't care much how long I lived But I swear I thought I dreamed her She never asked me once about the wrong I did_ _When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold, dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her_ _When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold, dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her_ _My babe would never fret none About what my hands and my body done If the Lord don't forgive me I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me When I was kissing on my baby And she put her love down soft and sweet In the low lamplight I was free Heaven and hell were words to me_ When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold, dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her _When my time comes around Lay me gently in the cold, dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her_
2024 anyone still here…?
Always
Yup
DWTS - Riker Lynch & Allison Holker danced to this….SO GOOD
Ofc
Love this vibe ❤❤
*"When, my, time comes around, lay me gently in the cold dark earth. No grave, can hold my body down. I'll crawl home to her"* If thats not poetry I don't know what is. Well, I do know what poetry is, and that's definitely something!
Simo I know right? It's really beautiful.
Yes but I wouldn't want him to crawl back creepy..........
True
"...No grave, can hold my body down" - Johnny Cash - Ain't No Grave. Another beautiful song
that lyric makes me wanna cryyy
Hozier doesnt sing about love, he sings about devotion
M. Daniela Navarrete A. undeniable truth
That’s what I was thinking. Still a beautiful song but won’t get that kind of love from anyone else
kzhead.info/sun/h8-aZ9JsboqrdYE/bejne.html
@@mallorysistrunk4077 a man can only dream HM? Hope I can provide that kind of love to someone at least
Love is devotion, devotion is love
Hozier doesn’t sing about love, he is love.
GOD is love
@@yesenia1449 & God lives inside everyone of us 🤍
@@yesenia1449stop spreading bs
To this day, I experience such euphoria. This song brings out every emotion one can possibly feel. A masterpiece is simply an understatement.
It is absolutely beautiful, isn't it?🖤
I know what you mean. I just barely heard this playing in the background to a movie trailer and it gave me that same feeling so I just had to come listen to the whole thing again.
I was looking for the word to describe it and you’re right, it’s Euphoria.. Their music just resonates with me soul.
one of the most amazing things about hozier's music is how he makes love sound like a spiritual experience. and there's something just so powerful about the connections he describes- mind, body, and soul, intertwined so closely so sometimes the lines blur regarding where one person ends and the other begins. there's something beautiful about that
I wonder if he experiences love like that....
@@katalexander8852 it's amazing to experience it like that ❤
He sings about sex with such reverence! Pure and beautiful and spiritual sin
It is a spiritual experience tho
Isn't that the bare minimum for love lmao
hozier keeps giving me unrealistic expectations for relationships Edit- four years later I've found it we've been together for a year and half and we're in love love
They're not too unrealistic. It just takes a lot of actually searching for the right person.
Real people are far and between. The sad truth about human nature. Let he/she without sin cast the first stone,...
i dont have weed :(
@@nilbadia2936 :'((
Lmao whyd this get so many likes I was just horny n hormonal 😔
I was so lucky to see Hozier yesterday and he played/sang this song and my soul shifted. It is beautiful, it is powerful and it is so so full of love. He's not just a singer, he is a poet and he writes love songs like I've see no other. They feel authentic and so full of pure passion and adoration
Hands down one of my favorite Hozier songs. That said, the choreographer for this video also deserves some huge kudos. They clearly understand the nature of the give and take in a long term relationship, and how the partnership is more than the sum of the parts. Combined with the song, it is something magical and evocative that gets me every time I watch it.
There's some kind of beautiful ancient-age vibes that he gives off with his music, yet it's still so modern. Truly amazing art:)
Because the lyrics speak of the same devotion that has kept humanity going all these years
@@emilybarclay8831 I think I know how you feel, that human spirit that just marches on, it’s hard not to admire it.
Welcome to Ireland

does anyone else get that feeling when you listen to Hozier and it's more than you liking the music but it almost resonates through your whole soul and you can feel it on a spiritual level even if the words don't actually relate to your life at the current time and you just kind of feel this ethereal moment where all at once this sort of sonorous tone in his voice washes over everything in a swirling kaleidoscope of graceful serenity and mysterious chaos and sometimes it's uncontrolled or wistful or messy but it's always beautiful and you can't help but to feel it so incredibly deeply with your entire being
Yes.
You summed up so nicely! The answer is: absolutely.
it's in words
+Sarah Mead I couldnt have said it any better..
Try listening to the REAL Work song by a jazz quartet. If you put in work song on KZhead it's the black and white one, has a similar experience.
as a mother, the chorus brings me to tears whenever i think of it aimed towards my son. i get so sad thinking that at one point, we may exist on this earth without each other and i'm already mourning it.
This is hands down one of the most beautiful videos ever. The dynamic partner dance echoes his lyrics in a way that is more than perfect.
I still can't get over that song, even after probably a hundred listenings. The way he describes how he feels home with his lover and what it's like to be loved in spite of his mistakes is incredible. I love that he goes so deep into all the feelings ("I'm so full of love I could barely eat"). He's such a wonderful lyricist and poet
Emy Jolie hi
@ofure obaseki Yes, totally! I think he once mentionned that he likes to explore each feeling to its deepest and purest form, this is totally what he did with love in this song 🙂 this is probably due to his love of poetry and his love of the blues
Emy Jolie I love it because it’s not like these new songs about fucking all night or getting drugged up together. It expresses how true love should feel. Not this fake idea that love is some kind of joke like these rappers or Ariana grande.
me too this guy just wonderful
Makes you feel hope that you'll find someone who will love all of you😊😊.
What an amazing song! I remember about two years ago a few young people from Ireland (where Hozier and myself are from) died when a balcony in Berkeley collapsed. One girl, Olivia, she absolutely loved Hozier and he flew to Ireland and performed this song at her funeral. I remember watching it on the news. Hozier came, sang and left. Didn't take any attention away from the sad setting in the church... but we all felt he honoured that poor girl so well. What a hero. He's a national treasure!
Just to point out, he didn't just show up, he was asked to sing by the girl's parents, and this was apparently her favorite song. You should be proud of him, he's sound.
billiey giles ah yeah I know! he sure is great though for going ahead with this!
He truly is, that is a very loving way to show respect, may she Rest In Peace.
@@SRM30 hes from Bray County Wicklow
I went to his show in Berkeley right after it had happened. He dedicated the concert to them
The music performance, the choreography, the dancers' chemistry, the lighting, the filming, the editing skills... all so fitting 👌 It comes together perfectly!
Just found this song and it is pure as can be. Brings out every emotion I didn't know I had. His voice is so heavy and light. Perfect.
LYRICS: Boys workin' on empty Is that the kind'a way to face the burning heat?

Thanks!
Can you even imagine being the woman this song was written for?????
To love someone so deep...
Thank you
Yes
I was just chilling listening to this song and I swear as soon as the chorus started two flies started fucking on my table wtf hozier
Datzz gr8 m8
I'm dead now, lol
lmao rip
:)))) so meaningful
It's not even funny! I was one of the flies, actually.
There arent enough words to express how beautiful his voice is and this song. . . Magic... Literal goosebumps. ❤
It unbelievable how well the dancers/actors express the music so well through their movement and energy. Their intense, loving, thinking facial expressions are beautiful.
god : how much talent you want for your son ? i was... hozier’s mom : *yes*
best comment ever!
jennifer widmeyer thanks :)
no grave can take his body down!
Yeah. All of it.
God: you want him to be a good singer, good poet, or good looking? Hozier's mom: *yes*
Hozier, King of the Manbun.
ikr :)))
❤❤❤❤❤
I wish you could meet my friend. It's hard to believe, but he looks even better than Hozier.
+Kendra Mackie no way. that's impossible
+andra mitru I'm serious. He's the most attractive man I've ever met and seen.
I lost my 21 month old in May and when i hear this song i cry thinking of her..."when my time comes around, lay me gently in the cold dark earth. No grave can hold my body down, ill crawl home to her.."
I’m so sorry. I just had a miscarriage 2 weeks ago. When I die, I can only hope now I can crawl home to my baby.
I am so sorry I can not imagine, You are so strong ❤
2024? Anyone
Hell yeah!
Of course ❤️
Yessir I’m Here
👋🩷💜❤️
Hi there
The chemistry between those dancers is fucking intense and so real.
+Koopa368 I know right...I love it!
It's fucking amazing! And passionate!
+Koopa368 What it is fantastic that is I'm sure they are all professionnal dancers from a troup, but they all look like couples, because of the chemistry you're talking about. And that's so beautiful !
+WildlySmuack182 Go watch "Work song Troubadour Trial" by Jillian Meyer. She is the choreographer and proposed performing this at one of his shows. Plus you get to see the dancers a little clearer.
I know!! It's electrifying
"In the low lamp light I was free, Heaven and Hell were words to me." Some of the best lyrics in the history of music. I love it.
I agree
He is the poet of our generation!!
I feel like saying he's amazing is just stating the obvious. But he's amazing. I saw him at the House of Blues in Boston and it blew my mind. He's awkward and very humble and quiet, but when he sings, he SINGS. There's no need for the "performance" element. The whole band actually, they're mesmerizing. And this song is beautiful. They all are. It's refreshing to hear music like this, lyrics like these. Fan. For. Life.
I just saw him in Dallas an I 100% agree. I couldn't even find words to describe how incredibly his show was. I'm still I'm awe.
People do a big performance because their music is poop
Very Nice!
I wish I was able to go to that show. I love his album. I found put about the show too late, though. Hopefully next year...
I know, it's a sad thing that today most artists are more concerned with being like everyone else and doing exactly the same (rap, twerk, or anything related) and they don't add any feelings to their music. But it's great to have artists like this band.
Fun fact: the 37th time you watch this video is just as enjoyable as the 1st.
SO TRUE
I was about to like this comment then I saw that it was at 69 so...
Cozier With Hozier agreed!
So true!!
Jusin tumberlake
My love was sent to be with the angels. I found out shortly after he passed that I was going to have our child. This song accurately depicted the love story I shared with him. I’m so grateful I found it.
This is my wife and I song! She literally saved me when I had an empty crib because of my life choices. She never judged me for whom I use to be. Crystal made me a better man/father figure. And I got him back in my life and will never let him go!
This song has a very special meaning to me. I was a struggling alcoholic for five years and I finally said enough was enough this year. That's when I found the love of my life, who immediately became my number one sobriety supporter and advocate. She never asked questions about my past actions or words. She sees me for who I am now, not who I was then. The lyrics of this song are an almost perfect reflection of our story. I'm 16 weeks sober now and deeply in love.
Congratulations! Wishing you the very best!♥️
♥️dear stranger, I am really happy for you
Proud of you ❤
congrats!
Awwww tooo much gratitude 💯❤️❤️💙🌼🕊️ happy for you!!!
This video is proof that Hozier is a siren.
King Of Cheez Wizz the whole truth
Imagine him and aurora collaborating. It would be EPIC
Lol
The slowed and chopped version is a lot better
Whats a siren
For me his voice just does something to the soul. Makes it shift, and touches every corner.
This man is just .. perfection. If his music can bring such a euphoric feeling I can only imagine what type of energy he gives off.
I feel like this is what a religion led by hozier would look like
Well, he's an atheist so it's probably not going to be a religion; but a philosophy more perhaps?
A religion doesn't have to revolve around a god, its mainly just an organized worldview.
Woah
Sign me up immediately
Lightning 107 he’s a Pisces sun so it makes total sense lolz 😅
This man is a fucking poet.
Italia Perez
You are right
i was jjust thinking about the imagery he puts in his lyrics. its a breath taking image he creates with this one in particular.
Italia Perez His music is a pure magisty
I thought you wrote goat
Absolutely love this song. This was first dance song with my wife at our wedding yesterday
CONGRATS TO YOU AND YOUR MRS
Same! Congratulations! We got married in May❤
There is just something about the words and the way he puts so much emotion in what he says. This song just brings me so much comfort yet sadness, because of just how easily this song seeps into my soul. And somehow I feel how he feels.
Hello there Chelsea nice meeting you here

I thank you for the lyrics bc my audio processing is trash and I struggle to understand him sometimes
TY!!
"I'm so full of love I can barely eat." I love that, I do.

Hi, Yoda.
Call, you did, hmm? Wish to learn of the Force, you do? :3
she give me toothaches just from kissing me ☺☺ that's my favourite part
this music video is just so beautiful! ethereal! whimsical! magical! serene!? calming! harmonius! all the besutiful things at once it makes me feel things ive never felt before -- the dancers-the chemistry the music oh god
Oh my god, the choreography and visuals are amazing. Divine. Exactly what the song deserves
The song is for everyone Those who long for love Those who are in love Those who had it and lost it And those who are afraid to love again
Wow you are right I got shivers listened to it for 1$t time tonight I'm gotten reply
Ok NOW I'm crying.
I'm sobbing
I don't know if it's the song, his voice or his man bun but I think I'm in love.
all of the above
I'm going with all of the above
its everything Im a straight man and I love him not in a sexual way but one far deeper ..❤
it's his mouth, seriously, his mouth
it's the bun... I know
I feel peaceful while listening Hozier’s music. It brings out my buried feelings and resolves them all. So, thank u bud
This song, this video, this choreo- pure lovely and amazing art. I so appreciate the beauty taking over these minutes. ❤
Is it me or do you to feel like Hozier doesn’t get enough recognition?!?!?!
Omg I know!! Never!! He never gets the recognition he deserves!!
hes recognised worldwide,,,.... and it still isnt enough!
Yasss!! Us og Hozier fans should make a secret society and break down his songs that have so many hidden meanings in it!
Me everytime I listen to him I go on a rampage telling my friends about him, they can't comprehend how much music their missing.
It has 70 million views and its not even his most popular song, what do you mean?
this song is like a favorite book, each time you listen you hear something new that resonates deeper in you
This isn't a song. It's an absolute masterpiece.
The message behind this song is so empowering. Love it!
His voice is so crystal clear and fresh ice to my ears 💜😍
did you ever buy an album because you heard like 2/3 songs and they seemed really cool and everything but then you listened to the whole album and you were like shit so there are only 3 solid songs on it and the other 10 or so are just there chilling in order to make a full-lenght album? did you feel betrayed and like you wasted 1hour of music listening? well it seems like with hozier you won't ever feel this way again go hozier you're the hoziest out there
The first part of your comment freaked me out and then I read the last two lines xD
Ragini Jain haha omg sorry now that i read it again i see what it looks like at first! :p
Ragini Jain that's what I felt when reading this comment ahahaha
I love this because it's so true.
Came close to flipping out in the beginning but after I read the rest it made sense
Every so often we get one; pay attention boys and girls! This is not music, it's the universe exhaling!
I
That is incredibly well said and a great description for great music.
I feel like music is the universe exhaling, and the stuff that usually passes for music is not music.
yes 🙏
Anogoya Dagaati reminds me of Jim Morrison and van morrison
I don't want everyone to find this song I want it for me from him. It's 4:00 in the morning, didn't sleep all night. This song takes away all the sorrow, tiredness and fills me with hope, calmness, and light
I saw him live and his voice sounds exactly like this, if not even more ethereal 🌙
I still can't believe Hozier didn't get a best album nomination at the Grammys!
Only albums released between October 2013 and September 2014 could have been nominated for the most recent grammys, and since his was released in October 2014 it can still get a nom this year!
olivialove124 yeaaaaaah🙌🙌hope he wins
ooohhhh :P thanks for that, now I'm not angry :D
0% nudity 0% sex 100% talent
agreed ;)
Mr. XD it's still romantic and sensual though, it makes it all the more precious to me
0% drama 0% cursing
Mr. XD Agree.
sex can also refer to your gender so it's 200% sex
after 8 years of listening to this song, it still makes me tear up time from time. im so proud of him.
I’m convinced music & devotion like this still exists❤ . Hozier’s music reminds me so, I’ll never settle till I find it ❤
that feminine urge to punch a wall when u hear "when my time comes around, lay me gently in the cold dark earth, no grave can hold my body down, I'll crawl home to her"....unparalled i think
100% Annabelle Lee vibes and I’m so here for it! 😩
banging my head into the wall
"In the low lamp light I was free, heaven and hell were just words to me". This is real love. To be completely lost from your surroundings in that one moment with that one person, as if it's the only thing that exists. Everyone should experience this.
Unfortunately for me the woman I experienced feelings and moments like this with is a complete knob and dumped me recently, I can feel myself falling into a drunken mess like before we got together, but despite everything she's put me through I'd still crawl back to her. Sad times
I love what Hozier's music conveys.🖤
Yes. Absolutely. Hozier speaks to my soul.
Ive never wanted to be a microphone before...
In Creative Music class in High School we were taught to pretty much be kissing the mic when we sing 😂😂
Loreli G Hahahahahahaha best comment ever!!

Slam Diggy oop we don’t choose our sexuality dood
Love this song & the heart & intensity of the lyrics.
This man can make my heart cry with every word he sings. The kind of love I've always wanted but sadly a lot of us will never find 😮💨
Holy shit this guys voice is like medicine
omg i know😍
yes I agree :)
Agreed!
yaass
I just saw him last week in San Francisco and he puts on a hell of a show. I've noticed people complain about his stoic features while performing on TV and his videos, but in concert he's really expressive and powerful. he's very relatable in person too, so shy and he did a hell of a cover of ariana grande for "funsies" he said. lol. I love music, but few artists touch me so deeply that I want to insert myself into their stories and live through their eyes. it's music for the soul, truely, and my favorite type, acoustic soul, bluesy and folk. if you havn't yet heard the album, you are missing out on a truely great artist of our generation. he's just a youngen too and I honestly don't think this album will be his best piece of work. did I mention he's absolutely gorgeous too? I think I actually melted and lost a piece of my soul at that concert. lol. and if the Irish accent wasn't the sexiest darn thing ever! :)
Jess M.R I'd have to agree with you here lol. People complained about his features??
yea, he performed this song on a TV show awhile back, also when he performed on snl I kept seeing those comments. I think he just feels more comfortable on stage in his own show rather than on national television, and he said himself he's still not used to all the press. btw, your baby is adorable :)
aw, she's so cute! I wasn't very close to him, upper level of the venue but I had a really good view!!
I'm Irish too. A lot of people say our accent is sexy. I always wonder what it is about it that makes it so appealing
I don't know, I just feel like everything is better if it comes from Ireland. lol.
Lyricism and incredible music aside, can we appreciate the video for this?? Holy hell if this isn't a short movie I don't know what is.
the music video is so magnificent 🥺
Such love. So much love x hozier sure can create.
I just want someone who talks about me like Hozier talks about his lovers
Or someone i love so much that i talk about them how Hozier talk about his baby
Or someone who can atleast dance with me like this on this song all night :'(
For those who want to know...the style of dance in the video is contemporary waltz.
I was wondering! thank you
Thanks :)
thanks so much
Thanks
Beautiful
What a beautiful song. His voice is something else
This is my all time favorite song. All I need is someone who feels the lyrics in their bones like I do ❤
Work Song Hozier Boys workin' on empty Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat? I just think about my baby I'm so full of love I could barely eat There's nothing sweeter than my baby I'd never want once from the cherry tree 'Cause my baby's sweet as can be She give me toothaches just from kissin' me When, my, time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her That's when my baby found me I was three days on a drunken sin I woke with her walls around me Nothin' in her room but an empty crib And I was burnin' up a fever I didn't care much how long I lived But I swear I thought I dreamed her She never asked me once about the wrong I did When, my, time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her When, my, time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her My baby never fret none About what my hands and my body done If the Lord don't forgive me I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me When I was kissing on my baby And she put her love down soft and sweet In the low lamp light I was free Heaven and hell were words to me When, my, time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her When, my, time comes around Lay me gently in the cold dark earth No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her
K thanks you
Thank u!!!!
Thank you
I was looking for this, thank you
Do you have any idea why is it called 'work song'?
this song reminds me of the quote that goes like "why do you love him, who the world hates so?" "because he loves me more than all the world"
This song brought me comfort during the most painful time of my life.
Crap does this mean hozier is going to be added to my list of obsessions
+14freckles14 I believe it does.Dare I say it might grace the top of that list?
+Gio Cali not as long as tool exists but still up there.
+Jacob Woolf how dare you not capitalise the 'T' in Tool... Maynard would be mad, if he gave a flying fuck about us puny mortals..
+Luke Taylor "who are you to wave your finger?"

Hozier makes me feel like love is a religion
it sorta is. at least the good parts are
It is though. Wanting to be better in pursuit of a better life. If you treat your love as a diety, and they are worth being viewed as such then it may possibly be the best religion on earth. Imagine a god who loves you and wants you to have good a good life. Who holds you accountable but understands your missteps. a power that at your lowest moments holds you in the warmth of their love and makes you feel alright. Something that pushes you to be kind and honest, and only asks that you do the same for them. A being who only wants you to be the best you that you can possibly be. That's one hell of a religion.
As it should be.
Love is the greatest gift from God, which is why the bottom circle of hell is for betrayal, because it takes advantage of love.
It probably is the one true thing. Who knows??
He understands, a hard life, & humanity . This is why I luv his music compositions ! They are beautiful, & Tells us about how to keep going, & being strong to survive !!! I luv it all & GOD BLESS YOU , HOZIER !!! Courage, Devotion, Strength, Determination, Love of Life, Survival, & Love of her, him, or anyone that makes your Life, Worth Living, & There for You !!!
This song makes me cry every time it’s so pure and has so much meaning 🫶🏽
I really like the reference back to Cherry wine. "I'd never want once from the cherry tree," because even if cherry flowers are popular for symbolising love, it actually symbolizes short love, or infatuation, hence why 'Cherry wine' is the song about unhealthy relationships.
I keep thinking about your comment while listening to both songs. Your beatiful mind understood completely these masterpieces as they were part of you. Perhaps they are, perhaps are parts of everyone's soul, still resonating even in dim light. Wish you the best ❤️
Thank you.
Everytime I hear the lyric "So full of love, I can barely eat." All I can think of is that I hope that never happens to me.
