Hozier - Almost (Sweet Music) (Live at The Current)

[@ijones_88]

I’m convinced he knows something the rest of us don’t. Playing that and singing at the same time is a HELL of a challenge

[@jickay]

I'm trying to learn this song and man it's rough to do both

[@jesse.a366]

I feel like it’s the way he keeps his eyes open while he sings. Idk. I get what you’re saying though.

[@sanyudass1286]

You should check out neon by john mayer if you think this is hard to do

[@thomaschristopherwhite9043]

John Mayer Neon Where the light is concert. You'll know when you see it.

[@angusmiller574]

Hell just playing it is hard enough for me!

[@katetaleska7352]

The man writes lyrics like no one.

[@who7063]

The lyrics are literally just names of old jazz songs copy and pasted

[@Ella-iv7wv]

who yes BUT his other stuff? his lyrics are stunning. Nina Cried Power is a great example. definitely check it out if you haven’t!

Listening to hozier makes me forget I exist for a few minutes, it’s nice

[@vanwool94]

Hozier serves as a constant reminder that I have absolutely no musical talent.

[@Zsaisse]

if it's a balancing act the universe did to take my talent (lack thereof) in music to to give to Hozier then by all means take it all away.

[@holyyoghurtman1952]

Take him as example and start practicing. Aim high, start low. I did, I started playing guitar this summer and I took it one song at a time, if it seems easy enough I have a go at it and I keep at it untill I can manage it enough. Then I go on to another.

[@warningsigh6118]

Do you know AURORA? Every time I sing I think about her perfect voice. I will never be as good at this And, yeah, the same with Hozier, totally agree x)

[@beverlydavison4699]

Same

[@morgenwinecoff9870]

Hozier's backup singers are a special kind of attractive

[@tabithaminyue6266]

The whole lot and kaboodle of them got pulled right from the Seelie court to support and share in the magic making of their Prince, of course they are a special kind of attractive.

[@azureshenanigans]

Seelie? Nah this is beyond courts, this type of magic is far more ancient.

[@rajalakshmi6810]

They are forest nymphs so obviously they are deadly gorgeous

[@AndromedaMes22956]

The way he sings sounds so effortless, it’s amazing

[@mexicanbadger4567]

1:13 to 1:35 might just be the sweetest 22 seconds of lyrics, melody and backing vocals ever recorded.

That lil dodododo shes hitting in the background is something special too. Jst every person and every aspect of this is breathtaking to me

[@tannybananny2833]

Sometimes I look at this man and instantly become a Renaissance sculptor slaving away carving stone to capture his likeness but not even coming close. It's one thing to wonder what it would be like to be this man's muse; it's another for him to be your muse.

[@harper.the.confused]

Hozier makes my existence feel so surreal sometimes

[@benjimontgomery9826]

His voice, the lyrics, the band, the arrangement, the rhythm, the time signature. This song is pure awesomeness!

[@ricotta4625]

This whole band is absolutely incredible. Also shout out to the sound design. It's a masterpiece

[@alegarrido8504]

Hozier's voice is forever my drug

AMEN!!!

Right.

[@AnotherPersonnn]

It does now :) Took way to long tho...

[@chrishatton2642]

The syncopation between the claps, bass drum, guitar line and time signature is sick AF. Beautifully recorded and produced.

[@avanikaushik3423]

To be honest I would totally just listen to him reciting the alphabet but this is nice too.

The chills I get from the layers and amazing vocals of this song 😎

[@jamesjojo7646]

I came in from the outside Burnt out from the joy ride She likes to roll here in my ashes anyway Played from the bedside Is "Stella By Starlight" "That Was My Heart" The drums that start off "Night And Day" The same kind of music haunts her bedroom I'm almost me again, she's almost you I wouldn't know where to start "Sweet Music" playing "In The Dark" Be still "My Foolish Heart, " Don't ruin this on me I wouldn't know where to start "Sweet Music" playing "In The Dark" Be still "My Foolish Heart, " Don't ruin this on me Tell me who, and I'll be thanking them The numbered lovers of Duke Ellington Do I owe each kiss to lip and cheek as soft As Chet can sing "Let's Get Lost" And "Let The Good Times Roll" Let "Smoke Rings" from this "Paper, Doll" Blow sweet and thick 'til every thought of "It Don't Mean A Thing" I've got some colour back, she thinks so, too I laugh like me again, she laughs like you I wouldn't know where to start "Sweet Music" playing "In The Dark" Be still "My Foolish Heart, " Don't ruin this on me I wouldn't know where to start "Sweet Music" playing "In The Dark" Be still "My Foolish Heart, " Don't ruin this on me I wouldn't know where I wouldn't know where I wouldn't know where, I wouldn't know where I wouldn't I wouldn't know where I wouldn't know where I wouldn't know where, I wouldn't know where I wouldn't know "The Very Thought Of You" and "Am I Blue"? "A Love Supreme" seems far removed "I Get Along Without You Very Well, " some other nights The radio news reader chimes Reporting "Russian Lullabies" She'll turn to me awake and ask, Is everything "Alright" I wouldn't know where to start "Sweet Music" playing "In The Dark" Be still "My Foolish Heart, " Don't ruin this on me I wouldn't know where to start "Sweet Music" playing "In The Dark" Be still "My Foolish Heart, " Don't ruin this on me I wouldn't know where to start "Sweet Music" playing "In The Dark" Be still "My Foolish Heart, " Don't ruin this on me I wouldn't know where to start "Sweet Music" playing "In The Dark" Be still "My Foolish Heart, " Don't ruin this on me

The band's names are a bit off... It's Cormac Curran and Rachel Beauregard. Jess Berry is often introduced to the audience by her artist name Thandii, and pretty much everyone calls the violin girl Suzanne Santo (her last name is Santosuosso).
