Hozier on what Sinéad meant to him, 'Unreal Unearth,' and the weirdest pronunciation of his name!

[@skyguppy1]

He always talks as if there's a sleeping baby in the next room ❤️

[@mkdegrat]

That’s such a cute way to describe it, love that 😂

[@giuliab21]

I love this comment

[@mkdegrat]

@@giuliab21 I also love this comment, I keep thinking about it

[@KimCafri]

It draws you in

[@Changelingheart]

I think he's the sweetest guy around. Stunning, really.

[@fancynancy074]

I love how much he drives home how Black music has influenced him every chance he gets. It’s important and he never misses a moment to contextualize where his sound came from. ❤️🙌🏾

[@robertmcmanus9185]

A genuine man. None of the ego and nonsense you get from so many artists. An impressive guy.

[@signe2102]

Its actually insane how much I love him😭

[@musiclover-cu5jy]

He’s kind of the perfect man, perfect human.

[@Elisanna91]

I've seen a lot of Hozier interviews, and this one was so good. Scott is great at not putting too much of himself in the interview but enough to feel personable and genuine. And the questions themselves were really spot on and good solid asks. Great interview.

[@juliakimm3624]

‘Bog daddy’ is iconic

[@chimdi]

Loved this interviewer because you can tell he did his research! I appreciated hearing Hozier reflect on how hard he worked to promote his first single and album vs. it being solely about the Internet virality. And it was interesting hearing him try to grasp the surreality of being a touring artist living between words. I can't wait to hear the other songs that didn't make it on Unreal Unearth!

[@Changelingheart]

His puns are not annoying either - Unreal Unearth. 🌿🪻

[@alannamccarthy3797]

Soft spoken!! So interesting . Great interview .

[@zoeollie202]

Hearing “there aren’t very many paparazzi in Ireland” I think about that also with Harry Styles, it’s good to hear that artists get to have the lives to themselves that they want, but it makes it so much more clear to me that LA culture and America normalized stalking celebrities and needing to know what they’re doing at all times, even if it’s nothing to do with their artwork. I think about how some people may feel like through social media they may need to be constantly doing something public or “noteworthy” to seem busy and justify their popularity and it’s exhausting and sad to think that tabloid culture made so much money off of celebrities that it’s normalized to not let them have even a bit of privacy as if we’re entitled to their every second. I’d much rather you be beekeeping, swimming, quietly reading undisturbed at home.

[@robertmcmanus9185]

They're artists in the 2nd place. They are people first and foremost. Glad some folks can be artists and live a decent life. They enhance our lives... wish we didn't have to impinge on theirs.

[@alannamccarthy3797]

He has grown into his craft so very well!!! I’m so grateful that he shares his talent ! Amazing artist! ❤

[@johncallaghan1787]

Really impressed with presenter too. Very interested, patient and knowledgeable. Thanks again for great interview. Hozier is class

[@hannahahle]

Could’ve listened to another hour of that - absolutely delightful!

[@Changelingheart]

He is just about the kindest most beautiful human I've ever heard of. The way he moves, sings, writes, interacts. A quiet brilliance like the stoic philosophers only he has been graced with an ability to give heart. His writing skills are unmatched for now. I love lyrics buth his has an interwoven knowledge of historical stories, myths, and unheard of books. The melodies or lilting, and sweet, fiery and strong, gut wrenching ...this man has all the tools. And the gift of magic is too. 🌿 ❤💐🪷🌻🪻❤🌿

[@yvettedouglass4642]

He mentions a music festival in Dingle. I looooved Dingle. Definitely a gorgeous town in Ireland. I was lucky enough to travel around Ireland for my Honeymoon (we are since divorced, but it was such an undeniably magical trip). I joked with the keepers of the B & B …”you’ll want to Dangle in Dingle” 🤣🤣🤣✨✨✨But really, this is about Hozier. One of my most favorite artists today. He and Miley Cyrus and Florence and the Machine, as well as The Lumineers. 🫶🏼💓✨😌

[@lavhayez]

Such a brilliant interview, possibly one of my favourites of this particular press run. Thank you!

[@jasminec6373]

Absolutely incredible interview. I loved hearing about Hozier's early influences and the level of respect that he has for music and the artists was palpable throughout, but especially in the compiling of those lists at the end. An absolute joy.

[@LoveAboveAll4]

This interview feels so calming. I enjoyed this knowledge. Thank you

[@kooosamonkey]

Just such a great interview... different vibe than most... but same vibe that the man always brings... his pure self. Love you darling Andrew!

[@BrittanyNCrosby]

Such an insightful interview that captured Hozier's journey, from his own talent to his influences. Loved the top 5 (or, 7-8) at the end and the Red Rocks shoutout. A remarkable album and artist. Can't wait for the tour.

[@janetclaireSays]

Great interview, but I have to comment on the typical New Yorker thing to say, that everyone works in NY but only a handful of people work in LA outside of musicians and actors. How ridiculous. Hozier even seemed baffled by that statement. I'm with Hozier when it comes to Sinéad O'Connor - what a terrible loss. She was a treasure and definitely had an impact on my life.

[@tiffanywalsh5526]

Beautiful sharing of Sinead O’Connor

[@ShwetaSciResearcher]

This is one of the best interviews of @hozier 🖤✨

I must hear hiim multiple X a day. Need He, and that voice, like a good drug.

[@thinking102]

Me to😊

[@Brassroses]

I think the bog daddy thing comes from the feeling a lot of us get from aspects of your music feeling connected to nature? Certain lines I think stick with us and lead to us feeling a connection to the land in a really visceral way.

[@studiocelestedesign]

Great little chat! That background framed cover though, what is that as a universal background hahaha. Super distracting & juxtaposed against Andrew's gentleness. Sorry for the tiny critique I just find it funny. ;) Fab interview; thanks! Lucky you to chat with the man for a bit; he's a real one.

[@samuelleask1132]

Legendary man

[@ericac3251]

Very polite of Hozier to not get aggravated with his interviewer. Andrew would explain something about his life (the fact he talked all about how in Ireland,his friends from school call him Hozier since 12 vs traveling and doing interviews he’s Andrew etc (34:37) etc). Then be asked, “I’m sure at home you’re Andrew an not Hoz..” 🤦🏾‍♀️(34:52). He did this so much I stopped watching right after. Love to listen to Hozier interviews but 😣.

[@giancarlocasaldi4515]

Very very good 😊

[@mikeluongo537]

He is a grand soul. AND SOOOO FKING COOL!

[@anewdawn2009]

Mad respect for his respect for Sinead O’Connor

[@FractalSpace888]

Hozier: “does this song spark joy?”

[@gypsyrose2720]

Thank you Hozier for that lovely mention to Sinnead O'Connor.....Powers that be were at work💫 Lions gate portal on August 8 (8/8), the Sun, Sirius (the brightest star in the sky), Orion, and Earth completely align with each other and the Pyramids of Giza.⛰️ The Lion's Gate refers to a period of days before and after-from July 28 until August 12-when the power of Sirius is believed to be activated by the Sun. Leo and your inner child being the key astrology areas. Sinead passed over 26 July 2023 Sinead was sent to Rest in Power 8.8.23🌈... the strongest dates of portal energies release is between 8th and 12th🌬 Timing of the powers that be in her crossover is not surprising at all... Her last time here on earth in this lifetime was a massive syncronisitie for me🕠....awoken early hours with a ringing in my ears, being guided to look out to the sky I was astounded to see sirus🌟 and a pyramid ⛰️star cluster 🌠 side by side rising at 4.30am 8.8.23 ... I instinctively spoke out loud, farewelling Sinead. Now AEST 9.9.23, I learn she was set free in Bray, C. Wicklow, Eire (Ireland) on the 8.8.23 kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5jKhH-Iq5ZksMU Dad and I have many precious memories on The Isle of Eire, especially C. Wicklow. Always in tune with you my beautiful Sinead 💚 Thank you for the FABULOUS music throughout lifes toughest moments, teaching me to speak from my heart and never let folk belittle me, be bloodline or not REAL GOLD ⭐️DOESNT FEEL THE HEAT OF THE HOTTEST FIRE ♨️ Our ancestral familys both stem from the O'CONNOR clan ...high kings of ancient Eire🇨🇮 FAREWELL SINEAD O'CONNOR🍀 💚U👩‍🦰 See you on the other side one day where we will dance , sing and party with the fae🧚‍♀️ #sineadoconnor #sinead #sinéadoconnor #sinéad #bray #brayhead #brayheadwalk #ireland #ireland🍀 #ireland🇮🇪 #fae #highking #oconnor #lionsgate #lionsgateportal #wicklow #pyramidsofgiza #sirus #sun #orion #leo #innerchild #innerchildhealing

God bless you and Sinead...I am also Irish. 🙏 I can't wait to meet her Rip

[@Just.for.fun.376]

"okay, I'll burn my boats to move forward" - is that a quote or something or he just talks like that 😮😮😮😮

[@julieannelovesbooks]

It’s probably a quote but he also 100% just talks like that.

[@thinking102]

One of the reasons the world embraces the pure magic hoziers lyrics, poetry and songs are is because of that exact reason they spoke of that many of us ate looking for the feeling now in our lives and hua music allows us to feel so much

[@RachelAnastasiaFurman]

youngblood picture starring was ...a choise

[@24starchild]

I have a question… Why on the planet is talking about Sinead part of the title when it takes nearly an hour for her to come up in the conversation? That’s misleading. Although I do really respect and admire what Hozier said about her, about how powerful she was and how taken for granted. Maybe because she unabashedly pushed us way out of our comfort zones. He vindicated himself by putting her in his the top five however. (also impressed that Thin Lizzy made his list ) Honestly, I never really listened to this guy because I thought he was immediately over commercialized. I saw him on television one time and thought he was utterly full of himself, but he vindicated himself in this interview. You still shouldn’t have put Sinead in the title of the video, that was taking advantage of her legacy by using her as Clickbait. From someone from Ireland who views her as their hero, and was in the top 2% of listeners of her music last year. 🙏

[@magspies]

Great interview, though not sure how much of a fan of Phil Lynott he is. Hozier doesn't pronounced Phil's surname correctly - the Irish way, and the way Phil did vs the English/US way.

Wonder why Andrew fidgets do much furing interviews? Is he uncomfortable talking sbout himself? Or maybe personal details about his inner feelings?
