How absolutely endearing watching this interview before his success took off, that he seems and sounds exactly the same as the interviews he's done now and thus far! Same nervousness, soft spoken, articulate and still so effin down to earth Andrew. Bless his parents for having raised such a fine, and genuine young man!

Fitting he said one of his influences was African American because when i heard TMtC the 1st time i envisioned an old black guy with a choir singing it. Lol lo and behold it was a lanky Irish lad. very talented dude.

Sweet, green Hozier!! He did a great job for his very first interview. Get that man some sunscreen!!!😳

Just seeing this now and having been his fan since I first saw him on SNL, I am totally gobsmacked that his first ep came out on my birthday! So shy and cute here; he did an admirable job in his first interview, but he must have been hurting afterward from that sunburn! Ouch!

Look how far you have come. You are so darn talented. And Take me to church made it to the top. One of my favorites ever. Absolutely am obsessed with your music and words. ❤😊 I relate to all your songs. So deep and hits my heart and soul to the core.

Love the photos at the end. Nice shots in themselves, but I love Andy's shorter hair around the front. Those curls are delightful. <3

[stephaniebrennan]

I am really finding it hard to warm to that interviewer...She should get her facts straight before she starts putting people in awkward positions...she's quite pushy...:/

What's the name of the song playing at the end?

[BlackthornTree]

Did he just misspelled his name as "HOZIEOR" at 3:11 or am I going crazy😅
