[@studiocelestedesign]

Chatted with him once before a show and he's just a solid guy as well. Don't know how these musicians stand being away on tour from their little toddlers at home; a huge kudos to Rory for making the sacrifice and standing by his boss & friend to do the insanely taxing tours. No other like Rory but that's got to be really rough! Wishing he and his little family very well.

[@eisbaerenhasenzahn]

That voice turns every song into a hymn. Goosebumps.

[@CranjisMcBuckets]

maybe someone should...take him to church

[@Divergent333]

The hymn reference reminds me of another Irish great. Check out Jack L if you don't know him already.

[@ericalamothe2958]

I seen Hozier in concert twice and would happily see him a 3rd time. I also got my niece and sister listening to him. One of my absolute favorite singers.

[@claudias.3569]

seeing him for the second time this fall and I'm literally so excited. I'm not a big concert go-er either.. like at all, but I'm obsessed with Andrew 😂

[@lb5368]

Saw him in 2019 (Movement was my theme song for like 2 years lol), and lucky enough to be seeing him again in September. I'm beyond excited for his success🎉

[@MK-fe5un]

His good music is even much more than this ✨❤️

[@lb5368]

@MK-fe5un I agree! Too Sweet is catchy, but tiktokers are wearing it thin. His music is fantastic and deep, and every time I listen, I hear something new. ​

[@AC-hu5tg]

Check out Movement too. SO good!

[@SnarkyRogue]

[@fret4yourprozac]

Voice like butter. He is perfection.

[@celestina0603]

Same feeling here ❤

[@studiocelestedesign]

His staggeringly beautiful latest album Unreal Unearth should absolutely have won all the Grammys as well. Not a clue how it got missed, but he'll get his own back given it's absolutely timeless and will be delighting many generations to come. The skill of composition, lyrics, nuance, intent and THAT VOICE is the full compliment of gifts that aren't usually all handed out to one person. And he is endlessly kind & well-meaning. He's so rare.

[@meekcreek]

I absolutely agree. Unreal earth was fantastic from every perspective. However, if he wins a grammy tickets will go from 80$ to 300$ and f*ck that sh*t. In times like these its a blessing when mediocre records get the prizes

[@aaronkeane2336]

The Grammys are a popularity contest for the most part. Wouldn't read much into it.

[@chibiyumeusa]

He's just so good. This and Eat Your Young are absolute bangers from his new album, but I don't think there's a song he's made I don't like. So talented as both a songwriter and performer, his voice is incredible. I saw him live on his tour for Wasteland, Baby and it was an amazing show, so no surprise his tour has been sold out for ages now.

For me the standout in Unreal Unearth is DeShelby P2. That song just plays on repeat in my house.

Just saw him in concert and he is just amazing, best concert I’ve ever been too. Honestly love his live performances more than his recorded work, sounds heavenly. What a shame Colbert didn’t interview him? Hozier is just so so thoughtful and well spoken in interviews. But I do hope he gets some rest soon. He looks so tired :(

[@alberty7865]

Just a few months ago he was in those "one hit wonders of the 2010s" lists, now he has a No. 1 song!

[@chibiyumeusa]

Which was criminal anyway because he's one of the few artist with albums that are consistently stacked to the brim with songs that could totally stand on their own as hit singles. I still can't believe Nina Cried Power and Work Song in particular were not astronomical hits. He has such good songs and surrounds himself with so many talented musicians to perform them. His vocal and songwriting skills are truly amazing. I'm glad he's getting more recognition and hope people go back and listen to all the gems they missed on previous albums if they only knew him for Take Me To Church.

[@surette2012]

Francesca, too sweet, eat your young, abstract (psychopomp) all from his newer albums are trending and objectively my favourites from him? I could list off every song, but Yk haha ❤Whoever green lit that list obviously isn’t following his career and just threw his name in the ring because take me to church was so monumental.

2 questions to 2 different groups of people. 1. To the world : how can you not love this person, especially after listening to THAT voice!? 2. To his PR : why don't we see more of him?
