'Humours of Whiskey' sung by Hozier, but I added some harmonies
Показать описание
So I just started listening to Hozier and his music, and yep, I get it now. He sung an acapella rendition of the traditional Irish song "The Humours of Whiskey" and my brain immediately went "but what if harmonies??" (because of course it did) This isn't really a cover, more of a quick, fun little project.
Audio from this video:
The text and melody of "The Humours of Whiskey" is from a traditional Irish jig.
I own nothing but my voice.
LYRICS:
Come guess me this riddle, what beats pipe and fiddle
What’s hotter than mustard and milder than cream
What best wets your whistle, what’s clearer than crystal
Sweeter than honey and stronger than steam
What can make the dumb talk, what can make the lame walk,
What’s the elixir of life and philosopher’s stone
And what helped Mr. Brunnell to dig the Thames Tunnel
Sure wasn’t it whiskey from ould Inisowen
So stick to the cratur’ the best thing in nature
For sinking your sorrows and raising your joys
And boys, I oft wonder, if lightning and thunder
Was made from the plunder of whiskey, me boys.
