[@alliefiscus9222]

It's still crazy to me how Hozier rounded up all of the sirens and made them his worshipers, and we caught this wonderful creation on camera

it's most definitely because he too, is an otherworldly deity and can therefore summon his sirens

[@riyaraghavan95]

Right from the second they start humming I transcend to a whole different place.

[@thewrdofthenrd]

So not only did I already love this song but it now has even more meaning to me. My grandfather passed a little over a week ago. The day before he passed I held his arm and hummed this song for him. I don't know if he could hear me but I couldn't bring myself to speak to him and the only way I could show him that I was with him was by humming. So I hummed a few songs for him. My grandparents were also married for 58 years and I think their kind of love is the kind represented in the song. I know he is in heaven right and now and I have no doubt that my grandmother will one day join him and they will be together for eternity. That's the love I hope to have. That is what this song is. Love for all eternity.
