Hozier - Blood "Nobody has actually heard of me"

[@justinwmusic]

The most impressive thing to me is that he'd already developed his own singing style at that age and that it's endured

[@GardensAndGames]

Look up "Chanson de Mardi Gras" by Anùna. Hozier is a soloist on that song and you can still hear his style.

I’m writing this in November 2023, @Hozier is 33 & on a fabulous tour & he is still the sweet, kind, sincere, funny man he was at 21. His mum & dad did real good & his voice has always & will always be ABSOLUTELY MESMERIZING 💯❤️🙌🏻🎵🎼🎶🎸

@@safiyaxoxfashion5000 What’s not to love, right?, he’s one of the good ones, so genuine

[Verse 1] Tryin' hard to recognise Some pure motive inside of me A creature that would horrify Any child that I used to be Oh, give no faith to show Started to smile so I showed my teeth No more than flesh and bone Doin' so much just to watch someone bleed [Chorus] But I love the very blood of you It keeps its heat in spite of you Oh, the heart that beats To keep you here with me always [Verse 2] Tryin' hard, I nearly find Innocence in spite of me Oh, creature that would terrify Any child left inside of me Oh, that's a cold insight Nothin' above us and nothin' below Ahh, but you might be right If there is no heaven and there is no soul [Chorus] I just love the very blood of you It keeps its heat in spite of you Oh, the heart that beats To keep you here with me always Always, always, always Oh, I love the very blood of you It keeps its heat in spite of you Oh, the heart that beats To keep you here with me always Oh, I love the very blood of you Leaks and squeeks you black and blue Oh, the heart that beats To keep you here with me always

[@caydenseely8859]

I love this video because you can tell he’s young, still inexperienced in the music business and all the ins and outs of songwriting that he has basically perfected now. BUT, you can still see the talent, the potential, watching it now in his career the most shocking this is how young he looks here lol, because his sound and “brand” is already developed and it’s easy to tie this to his self-titled album just a few years later. Also I need this as a studio version STAT

Okay, I have a theory, Hozier is a vampire!! He's pale, handsome, and listen to the lyrics of his songs. About monsters loving something to sweet. Especially this one. There's no denying it! (okay, on a note of sanity...I know there's no such thing as vampires but I'm just having a little imaginative fun) :)

He's what Edward Cullen of Twilight should have been if the writer was any good. Coz I'd definitely believe it if he said he's hundreds of years old.
