Hozier's new track "Too Sweet" is like ear candy! Vocal ANALYSIS of his new hit single!

Hozier's "Take Me To Church" is one of my all time favorite songs to come out of the last decade, and some of the amazing covers that have been done have let that song continue to live on towards infamy. So when he dropped a new single last month that's already reach number 1 on the top 100 on Billboard, it was no surprise for that to happen, and no shocker for me to want to listen to it for the first time here!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Hozier performing "Too Sweet" for the first time.

[@SubroutineLtd]

Most underestimated lyric in this song IMO: "Pretty as a vine, sweet as a grape, if you can sit in a barrel, maybe I'll wait"

[@OpDDay2001]

I... just got it. I didn't the barrel line until just now. Wine. He's saying if she ferments (matures) into Wine, he'll be there.

[@SubroutineLtd]

​@@OpDDay2001 I think something similar. He is saying she is too sweet and contrasts that with his love of black coffee, neat whiskey and hard living. Whiskey is distilled from grain and stored in barrels to mature. Same goes for Brandy which can be distilled from fruit, including grapes. So I think the analogy is for hard liquor rather than wine which ferments in bottles - point is of course that in the future she may become less sweet and be right for him.

[@AsTips_]

his music is poetry i love it

[@analiamariarabelocavalcant5499]

How it’s underestimated? It was the part that went viral

[@SubroutineLtd]

@@analiamariarabelocavalcant5499 I am not aware of it going viral but if you say so I am happy to concede that. Admittedly, I didn't do a statistical survey of lyrics, or a line by line social penetration analysis. The context of this comment was the fact it was missed reaction video, to which this comment was appended - sorry if that was not self evident.

[@Coddlesworth]

Only Hozier could write a song where he basically says: "It's not you, it's me." ... and women still just swoon.

[@kirstenwyatt9675]

It really strikes me as a "bad boy" and "good girl" where they give it a go, but the song is the guy going, "want to give my way a go? No? Maybe we just don't fit." But yeah, a "it's not you, it's me" kind of vibe.

[@Shane_Bozelie]

Instead of "it's not you, it's me", it feels for me "we have different lives and needs, maybe we just do not fit"

[@Coddlesworth]

@@Shane_Bozelie Yeah. That's why the joke works. 😁 The reason "It's not you, it's me" is viewed negatively is that it's generally a cop out and a way to avoid being real, wherein this song presents real and honest communication... which is sexy.

[@chriswyszkowski640]

This works so much more with TCV putting together the wedding bells and the ensuing comment. I did not see that connection.

[@Tophusification]

This song has lived rent-free in my head for two full weeks.

[@kristie1929]

Yep. It's still living here rent free 😂

[@kamallb4650]

Same

[@chrissyd5601]

Finally more Hozier. I love the metal analysis but we need a look into Hoziers lung power.

[@foxyybfly]

ugh for real. agreed.

[@callumkent7155]

Shame he is now a raging liberal like most celebs scared to have own opinions. Well in public anyway

[@KP-ness]

'Arsonist's Lullaby' is my all time favorite song by Hozier but this song is a close second ❤

[@CorruptTree]

I was going to comment something similar and I was scrolling and found you had the same opinion as me.

[@lucidcacophony]

I came to say pretty much this!

[@tiafielding]

It's one of my top 2 songs of all time. I'm so sad more people don't know it!

[@NychelleStephens]

I don't know this song! Will check it out.

[@izzysilva1981]

Mine's Movement

[@samfisher6606]

Hozier is steeped in Folk and Blues and Jazz standards. I highly recommend you look into him even more. If you want to check out his lyricisms, some of my favorites are "Jackie and Wilson," "De Selby (Part 1)," "De Selby (Part 2)," "Angel of Small Death and the Codeine Scene," "Nina Cried Power," "Francesca," "Eat Your Young," and "Damage Gets Done." He also did a live acapella version of one of my favorite Irish folk songs called "Humours of Whiskey" which I love so much!

[@tdh1990]

Nina cried power is an extraordinary song. The video makes me cry every time too. Thoroughly recommend!!

[@belll429]

Yes please

[@majonkie]

Definitely! All the Hozier, he makes the most wonderful music AND seems to be a good egg ❤

[@welljer]

"Work song" is what really turned me into him. Been in love with him since

[@foxandscout]

The live version of Nina Cried Power with Mavis Staples: so freaking great! I was lucky to see him in a smallish place (Bowery Ballroom,NYC- a venue I love) for a cheap price. It was a special sneaky announcement during his MSG gig (sold out and way to expensive). And I was lucky enough to get a ticket! I did not get to see, but that same week he played a bunch of songs at the back of a restaurant. I saw it live online so I wonder if it’s on KZbin? The year prior, I saw him at a medium-sized venue (great seats) when he toured Wasteland, Baby! Since then I just can’t afford tix. I was just lucky with the gig at Bowery Ballroom. Standing only, low stage: they don’t oversell so it’s comfortable and you can see from anywhere. One good thing about living in NYC: lots of opportunities to hear music one loves. I was fortunate enough to accidentally see Hozier 5+ years ago… when I was going home after work, (in midtown) at a subway station down by the tracks. He sang 5 songs including Take Me to Church (first song-I missed most of it); Work Song; Nina Cried Power. Other musicians have played in subway stations including Ed Sheeran and U2. The least expensive at his upcoming shows in Queens, NYC in June are just too expensive plus it’s a long subway ride from me in Brooklyn, 3 trains. And it’s a big outdoor stadium. My good friend lives a few blocks away: she said you can plainly hear shows when standing outside. So maybe a last minute decision… depending on the weather…

[@jen.g.]

I was lucky enough to see him perform this song live for the first time in Raleigh on 4/20. I got the tickets for my daughter-but I left the show a fan myself. If you get a chance to see him live, do it! So fun!

[@Laze_n_Daze]

FINALLY!! I've been waiting for Hozier for so long!!

[@beth_winegarner]

Meee tooooooo

[@fififel40]

Sameee

[@missstorrm]

oh wow, i thought this day would never come ;)

[@Sebrof3]

One could’ve always hoped !

[@sededoinfinito]

Me too!!!!!

[@squidpaladin]

i have also been waiting so much to hear her cover Hozier

[@santiagoFvl]

YES HOZIER!!!!! I definitely agree, he's got one of the best voices in radio today and his songwriting is just as good. If you want to check out more, his last album is SPECTACULAR, best lyrics and vocals he's ever done IMO. He really uses his whole entire range in Who We Are, that song blows me away every time

[@MrCookalooka]

I am in love with your ability to be so transparent and open with your excitement over good music; it's infectious. It always makes me smile to see someone so passionate about their craft. Honestly, it inspires me and reminds me to stay open and honest about who I really am and what sparks my genuine excitement like you do with music. Thanks for all of your content, you've got me nerding out over metal screams and vocal folds, and scaring people, probably looking batsh*t insane as I'm driving down the freeway practicing screaming new vocal techniques on the way to work.

[@justinw1765]

The song seems to be about a partner (or ex) who is obsessed with health/diet, longevity, structure/discipline, and a kind of purity, whereas he says he wants it gritty, chaotic, anything goes, carefree, spontaneous, and darker. He's the "bad boy" and shes the "good girl".

[@MordredsGirl]

I’d argue it’s more complex than ‘bad boy’ ‘good girl.’ More along the lines of ‘I’d rather interact with the world as it/I am, rather than expressing toxic positivity and trying to optimize my life.’ There’s an article called ‘i found the tenth circle of hell’ and it’s a great breakdown of the song and the general public’s interpretation of it.

[@foxyybfly]

@@MordredsGirl as a person who struggles deeply with mental health issues (diagnosed completely over and over) i agree with this. sometimes it is easier to live in that space than bring others into it. some people get it, and some people don't need to be in it.

[@justinw1765]

@@MordredsGirl Well I agree for the most part, which is why that came at the end and was "quoted". But one could argue that it is the ego part of us that gets in the way of self improvement. We need a balance between accepting (and being conscious) our shadow and ourselves, warts and all, while also trying to improve/evolve/grow. These "characters" in the song are two necessary, opposite sides of the same coin. Hozier is Pisces and the lass is Virgo. They are attracted to each other precisely because they are not whole people and each has what the other lacks and what balances/complements each other. But opposites both can attract _and_ repel at different times, just like opposite signs in synastric astrology. It's this dance of push pull and integration-polarization that happens. In real life, Hozier seems to be obsessed with sex, and very well may be a sex addict. That is a very limiting pattern to be stuck in. His ego will tell him that it is ok, because it is what he enjoys, meanwhile that quiet, still, inner voice that comes from his Spirit/Expanded self may be whispering, "you need to change this, to heal, you're holding us/you back".

[@user-pb1vg1fi5t]

@@justinw1765 Did you throw your back out with that reach?

[@dresden123456]

Seen Hozier live a few times now, and he's just fantastic. The voice, the lyrics... just fantastic. (Seeing him again in June and I can't wait!!!)

[@foxyybfly]

never seen him live but going through the comments seeing this same gorgeous narrative makes me wonder how isn't bigger. i just discovered him off this song and i am shoooooooooooooook.

[@Julia-tk2em]

Seeing him in September! So excited

[@Sunshineandhydrangeas]

Just saw him this week for the second time and he was amazing! Again! I will totally go see him again in the future.

[@cristhiangabriel8453]

Hozier did the credit song for god of war ragnarok, the lyrics are so brutal and real (no idea if he wrote it himself) but still so beautiful, combined with his voice and the instruments was all I needed to be in love with this man's voice

[@beth_winegarner]

He did write the lyrics!

[@DragonLandlord]

The title is "Blood Upon the Snow"

[@foxyybfly]

@@beth_winegarner i am sure he did because as someone who is actively learning music i keep getting recommended him as a song writer, but saw reddit being dicks to him. so this makes sense!! he is awesome so far from my deep dive i am obsessed!!

[@tim.noonan]

Now you have to do his song Blood Upon the Snow! End credits song for God of War Ragnarok. I’d recommend a playthrough beforehand but that’s a 50+ hour commitment 😂

[@kirstenwyatt9675]

The song is amazing on its own, but yeah, after you have played through it is so much more tear jerking.

[@denathegale9324]

This song has been my new obsession! So excited for this video! Fun fact: in one of his posts about the song, he said it’s partially inspired by an Irish phrase that can describe someone as “too sweet to be savory.”

[@kikivon3501]

IDK if you’re seen the subway platform version of Take Me to Church Or, “It will Come Back” live sessions version. Both are a absolutely amazing

[@kirstenwyatt9675]

Ooh! I need to dig through her catalog to see if she responded to that, because you can really see his form in the subway video!

[@miriameisman6364]

seconding this!

[@mrVojjin]

If you'd like to check out more Hozier I cannot recommend his song Francesca more highly. Since it was released last year it has become my favorite love song ever recorded 😍 It has a number of REALLY good live recordings as well where he shows off his ability to switch vocal 'modes' on a whim even more. It's really spectacular.

[@chrissyd5601]

The one he did in Glastonbury was gorgeous 😍 gave me the Cranberries vibes at the end.

[@opesam]

My reading of the TSA line is that everything is closely monitored and controlled, whereas he drinks, smokes and just dgaf... Her body is a temple (ref. Heaven's gate), his is a theme park! 😂

[@llc358]

I agree. Basically just two ways of saying she is very careful about what she eats/drinks/puts in her body, as opposed to him.

[@johnsmoak8237]

Being careful just means different things to some. For example, I'm more frightened of distracted driving than I am of drunk driving. Not all of my family and friends agree with me on that, but then...all of their crashes have been bc of distraction...and none of them drink...

[@Hoganply]

A dose of giddy Elizabeth always goes down smooth. Thanks, Hozier.

[@cuponoodles7541]

"Who We Are" and "I, Icarion" are two of my absolute favorites of his songs rn I definitely recommend listening to them!

[@losj3020]

I, Carrion is one of his best IMO! His voice combined with the lyrics and the music of that song sounds so timeless. Francesca is amazing but I Carrion truly sounds like an ancient love story. And the way he injects the emotions into it - the love, desperation, and acceptance. I could talk about it all day long

[@tamaramoody1038]

The lyric videos visuals are there because this song was written for his album Unreal Unearth! The aesthetic of that album was all dirt and stuff like that. It's one of my favorite albums of all time, AMAZING listen, highly recommend

[@foxyybfly]

omg i just discovered him. did he do the dirt thing because people seemed to write him off aa one hit person? i saw that on reddit but i am floored because i am astonished by his gorgeous voice and lyrics. i am so curious about him and know nothing

[@tamaramoody1038]

@@foxyybfly He has done some pretty in depth interviews for this album cycle and fans have made some very comprehensive album breakdowns here on YT, those sources might be more illuminating for you

[@markmarlatt1105]

The Songs ICarrion and Butchered Tongue are really deep. Had to google a bit on both. Butchered Tongue in particular is a really rough topic to covet in a song

[@katherinec1153]

Unreal Unearth is supposed to follow the journey of Dante's Inferno, which is why the dirt/worms sort of focus. De Selby 1 and 2 are based on a book called The Policeman, and introduces it, then you go through the different circles of hell. There is a LOT of lore/lyrics digging out there, if you look!

[@lifeaftereverything4986]

Arsonist’s Lullaby has to be your next Hozier song. One of my all time favorites from Hozier.

[@nevanoshaughnessy2311]

What a voice!!! I loved 'Take me to Church' and didn't think it could get much better from that, then his collaboration with Meduza with "Tell it to my Heart' was next level ... BUT ... 'Too Sweet' is OUT OF THIS WORLD good! I'm very proud of this fellow Irishman!

[@AdaminaCarden]

The way you descibred what makes his voice so gorgeous is so accurate - it's that control between light and airy and condensed across his whole range. Plus, lyrics, man does lyrics

[@maximan4363]

Total genius!! Vocal perfection!!! I LOVE the Bass, but OMG his vocal control is awesome - what a beautiful song! One of best songs of all time!!!

[@oveohlen3550]

I just love his voice, story telling, and sense for flow, drive, and rhythm. Both Unreal Unearth and Wasteland Baby are incredible albums worth listening to. If you want a treat to analyze, I highly recommend his live session of De Selby (1) and De Selby (2) - including a treat of Irish accent to have a linguistic nerd-out regarding dialects and their specific phonations :)

[@GabrielGarciaF]

This song has been stuck in my head since it came out, and watching you listen to it with such joy makes me happy in a way I didn't expect 😊

[@trevatrevs]

how i interpreted "you treat your mouth as if it's haven gate" is like someone who refuses to put junk, or anything "too sinful" in their mouth. treating it like a temple like you said. and the "the rest of you like you're the tsa" as in they're being just as strict with the rest of their body's "security". the symbolism/metaphors in this song slap almost harder than the bass IMO. i love love love this kind of imagery in music. truly a wordsmith and a master of his craft. and that verse that comes after, tells me this isn't someone they want to outright reject from their life. they're just someone who needs to "lose a little of their sweetness" to be palatable. cause they go on to say "babe don't get me wrong, you're as bright as the morning, as soft as the rain, pretty as a vine, as sweet as a grape", but he's saying he doesn't want the grapes, he wants the wine!. "if you can sit in a barrel," THEN "maybe I'll wait" but until then they're going to "take my whisky neat, my coffee black, and my bed at 3" i.e. I'll enjoy the bitter things in life that are real/more palatable to me. this song blew me away. i spent 6+ hours listening to it so I can try and sing It for karaoke asap.

[@k2thepeak]

Noah Kahan is really killing it vocally now. And, he and Hozier are good buds and frequent collaborators. Really some of the best music being released. I’m so happy I watched Elizabeth’s reaction before the song set up in my head. Every listening I’ll be reveling in his nuances.

You neeeeeed to hear De Selby part 1 & 2, they are technically two songs but flow right into each other. You are gonna loveeee every moment of it! So glad you’re getting into Hozier!!

[@foxyybfly]

excited for him and excited to hear the song!!!

[@poeticrapier]

Saw him in 2015 after his first album dropped at a small venue, and then just last fall in a major arena. I would love to hear more from him, "Common tongue" has some of the most clever writing he's done

[@justsomegirliknow]

Now you have to do Why Would You Be Loved. I cannot stop listening to that song either!

[@justinpickering5906]

I love him singing the whiskey song, he has such a pure voice

[@Lielrbd]

We all need more Hozier in this chanel

[@BryanBarnhardt86]

Hozier is a phenomenal artist

[@davidrobinson7895]

Hi, first time watching your channel in the uk. Love your infectious enthusiasm for this song,which is the best song I've liked for a long time. Another great song i think you would like to review is a group called London Grammar the song called? Lord its a feeling -orchestral amazon original . Its out of this world and give goosebumps every time I listen. Keep up the great work.

Real Love Song. I think Elizabeth would love it

[@sparkle_queen101]

I had to skip u talking and looked up hozier video found an hour looped version I’m hooked .missed him so much didn’t realise till I heard this

[@lonesomevalkyrie]

Love Hozier! I am seeing him live in August, my second time seeing him.

[@avanjou]

Thanks for doing a Hozier song, keep it coming! The earth and ants background has been used in a lot of material since his last album Unreal Unearth came out. It's also on the album cover. That album is inspired by Dante's nine circles of hell so maybe that ties into the decomposing earth imagery.

[@JonnyJabberwockey]

YESSSSSSSSS please do more Hozier songs!! I highly recommend "Angel of Small Death and the Codeine Scene" and "Movement"

[@gabis.e9432]

pleasee do more Hozier! his songs are amazingg

[@maryvallas772]

I just listened to this song for the first time with you! I'm glad you did the lyrics video it does really help to understand it. I'm a bit stunned actually because I relate to these lyrics completely! The lack of sleep, the late work hours... all of it! This is exactly how I felt about my husband when we met! I still think it, 16 years later! 😂😂😂 When he's comparing her body to the TSA, I think he means that nothing gets through, particularly fluids. 😂

I personally prefer listening to studio versions of songs before live. I like hearing how they intended it exactly.

[@Gyledresch]

Obviously Hosier has one of the best voices of this century, but that's not what gets me about his music; it's how talented he is as a song writer. He contently wows me with the caliber of his writing.

[@brandonhensley9685]

I got too see him live he was spectacular

[@kelpeigh]

I thought the inclusion of the bells was very clever because we associate them with weddings, yes, but also funerals. It’s a play on beginnings and ends in a breakup song.

[@Acewhip]

Think the PHAT bass really helps balance his light airy vocals. The kind of juxtaposition which is just delightful 😁

[@benmason9755]

His tiktok video where he presented the rough version of Unknown from Unreal Unearth is a PERFECT example of him in the raw, without accompaniment, while still being completely AMAZING.
