Hozier - Would That I (Audio)

In Indian folklore there was a singer called "Tansen", who could sing "malahar" so well that he'd summon rain storms and fires by his voice... now I know what those rain storms and fires were in the hearts of the listeners ... Hozier has the same effect.

[@riddhimanna8437]

Hii Indian here...and I agree! Also did you listen to Hozier's rendition of My Lagan Love? It's the most tranquil song that I've ever heard in all of my existence.

[@stepan7742]

damn he sings like the sun warming your skin outside, he sings like the smell of smoke and the rain, he sings like the currents and the fires and the wind blowing from up north. He sings like the smile of a lover first thing in the morning, like the bitter taste of coffee you love so much. He sings like the embrace of your mother when you come home. damn

He’s comparing his old love to trees and his new love to fire. She consumes his old loves by burning them away while he stand by to watch.

[@sevdagh7729]

Or he forgot his old love to the willow while it was burnt but fell into the burning flames of the that?😶.it is quite passionate and pure but scary ,though.. Or i get the song wrong😅

He said he was alight too though it's the passion of fire.

[@Arix91]

See, I see it differently: I think he's comparing the types of people he loved to elements. Good women were the wood, where the fire women were a bit more toxic but passionate and kept him alive. It feels like he's processing why he has the need to love the fire, he's trying to be with the wood which is more inviting and less damaging....but unfortunately he Workships the fire: "with the road of the fire my heart rose to its feet" and he "settled soft and as pure as snow" ready to be melted by the fire.

i don’t think i’ll ever be the same after listening to hozier. this music makes me want to run away in the best way ever. like i could kindly and gently decompose. like i could mean something without ever being known.

[@flickchic238]

Hozier is the definition of poetry. Look up the meaning of poetry and you will find Hozier with his flowers and instruments.

[@justbreathe7816]

I love all the songs but this one is my favourite. The melody, the lyrics, it just makes you reminisce the memories you did not have.

[@juliathompson804]

Something about this song today moved me to tears. By god, Hozier, you've done the most and I am so grateful.

[@Kennedy749]

I love this, its like Shrike part II

[@cesarguzman4355]

That chorus gives me life, thank you Hozier for your music.

[@teahoskin7457]

I love this song. it sounds like a pagan song; a man who fell in love with a girl born of the fire and a girl born of the earth. It's absolutely magical, utterly entrancing

[@manuelfritz121]

Not gonna lie, this legit makes me feel like I'm in a fantasy story, and I'm here for it.

[@ManjushaChandran]

I love listening to this song so much! It gives you all kinds of feelings, fills you with awe with lyrics, music. This is pure, magical!

[@mallory0322]

Beautiful!! Love this!🌼 Michael Hutchence is hauntingly coming thru in the chorus. Intense..

[@-niemand-6848]

This song feels like hope, a peaceful and empowering kind of hope

[@pheaviny]

This song is filled with immense glory, and Hozier's articulation is impeccable and brilliant

[@naturegame8624]

This song is one that brings me energetic comfort. The way he sings is the way that I aspire to be like. The instrumentals are just as it needs to be, unique, a tale of adventure. Each piece of this song could stand as a good solo but together there is no physical greater peace.

[@naturegame8624]

The aesthetics of the song to me gives a beached rocky forest. The trees all a warmer vibrant green contrasted by their shadows. The feel of the warm smooth sand under your feet while hanging out with a best friend even if you don't have one. There is a dark grey mountain beside you that holds tall stocked dandelions (not puffy) sparcely spread across along with patches of moss and a small water stream.

Hozier if u see this which u won’t but I have one of the worst cases of tourettes and I can’t touch anything without breaking it or failing any simple task. I no joke fail 98% of anything I do during the day. I can’t live with being unable to do anything AT ALL. I’ve signed up for the final exit network and am so scared to do it. I’m actually terrified. I don’t want to do it but every day, all day Is a struggle. I have non stop Tics that are totally debilitating. I can’t even make my own food without burning myself or fling ingredients everywhere. Then having to clean it up and repeat. My point is I listen to your music everyday and it help sooth me and make me feel better. Your song are so interested to my ears and it just makes me feel so good. Your voice is so deep and euphoric I’m so happy that you are making such beautiful music. Thank you Hozier for helping me through the hardest times!

[@kimblake9356]

I saw Hozier in Vienna, Austria about ten days ago and it was magical.

[@tinarcollett8790]

I discovered Hozier a few months ago, and I fell in love with his music..so heartfelt and beautiful. It feeds my soul....

[@chrizeldabernil8323]

I think this is my fave! Could still change. Actually likely to change depending on mood and circumstance like the debut album. But oh this is sublime, The verses so sweetly sung like courtship and the chorus so passionately felt like the consummation yes!

[@aliasfakename7569]

10/10 Best singer songwriter of the century

''I would have gone with you to the end, into the very fires of Mordor''

[@ahmadh653]

that bass starts at 0:53 WOOOOOOO It gave me goosebumps and i was like wow few seconds later the chorus came on and it gave me a harder goosebumps.

[@spencersuen3360]

The first minute of this song is some of the most soothing music to ever bless my ears

[@v0rteks644]

That's my girl. She's the fire that consumes the wood of my pain. We're long distance, but she's coming to see me next week. I say I wish she had any idea how much I love her, but I think it's like looking in a mirror. Since the moment we met, my instincts told me she was the one, but my trust issues from past relationships got in my way. She's been so loving and understanding, and I'm so grateful to have her in my life. She's the one I've been waiting for. I'm truly the luckiest man in the world, and I remind her of that every day. I can't wait to finally put my arms around her. We've saved those three big words until we can truly look each other in the eye before we say them. We've said them in other languages, and found virtually every loophole to tell each other how we feel, but I already told her that I want that moment to be one neither of us will ever forget. It will be the beginning of the rest of our lives together. My cup overflows, and it's all because of her. I love you, Raquel.

[@cabu511]

elegant ahh writing

[@masquerademage]

this is incredibly sweet. i hope you two had the best time getting to see each other in real life.

[@v0rteks644]

@@masquerademage thank you! Life has managed to get in the way of our plans several times lately, but she's still coming down. She'll be here in about 2 weeks!! :)

[@Nocsucal-BeatGod]

Unfreakn real how brilliant this is. From the composition and absolutely incredible lyrics/poetry to his voice & delivery. Perfect

[@Rubyllim]

god I love this song, the story of a man who once feared intimacy but now relishes in it is so amazing how he describes his ability to love and care, and to be loved and cared for as a fire razing and destroying all of the walls he's built around himself is just amazing

[@noorqadri3507]

Oh to write poetry and song like this.

[@jane9561]

Come to think of it, his songs really sound like forests and faes and magical wood creature music lol

[@notahooman3598]

"Though I've handled the wood, I still worship the flame" that line gives me chills every time

[@Daniela-tk9pl]

You sound like my dreams, I'll always recognize you.

[@amiaz14]

Yes ♡

[@kayci4514]

Damn. Hozier just makes me so happy. I swear I wouldn’t know what would happen to me if I didn’t discover him. Like i could be having the worst day ever and all I would have to do is listen to his voice

[@teaffeeblend]

probably one of the most romantic songs that I've heard in a long while...it really is soothing
