I always come away from Hozier music with a reading list of poetry and literature. Thank you, Andrew, for thr broadened horizons and reading lists that never fail to inspire my darkest corners of creation

Can't wait to hear these back to back on the album... and repeat them an obscene amount of times 😂 2 more days!!

You can’t understand the level of obsession I have with these two songs back to back.

I think De Selby Pt 1 is among the greatest songs of all time. How he taps into the soul there is beyond words. People in 1000 years time will still be talking about this song, that’s how powerful it is🙏

He’s so awkwardly adorable, I just want to give him a big hug.

I love the experimentation with the sounds in the selby part 2, i freaking love it

The way ‘no closer could I be to god’ has been in the back of my mind for WEEKS this song shook me in a real way

The freedom of darkness - this is a powerful trope for the descent into the circles of Hell. Can't wait for this album.

i could listen to him talk for hours.. and im so grateful for the ability to listen to hours of his music whenever i please. i cannot wait to see him (in less than a month!!) beyond excited for part 1. i often feel "kind of part genius, part lunatic." every album, and single, of his seems to find my ears exactly when i need it.

I cannot wait for a Hozier song in Irish! I’m a little emotional about it haha

I honestly have to say that I have been waiting with baited breath for this new Album. and after spending the morning here in sunny Johannesburg South Africa, I have come to the realization that you are my favorite Male musician/artist. It's you Hozier and Florence and the Machine, now imagine that as a collab. In a perfect world, that collaboration would come to South Africa to play a few shows! I Absolutely love the new album. Thank you for singing to my soul today.

always a treat to know what inspired the lyrical poetry. <3 (and what an impressive memorization of Irish! Somewhere in Co. Wicklow a primary school level teacher is giving themselves a pat on the back! :D )

If I had Hozier as a Math teacher, he explains everything so well and and so calm❤️❤️❤️
eemriyah
He has such a beautiful mind I love how he can break my heart while wearing funky socks and high tops
