Why does he sound better live? Wow. What talent.

[@pinetree7542]

I’ve seen so many musicians deliberately going for very mysterious vibes in their looks and “magical” themes in music, but I’ve never witnessed someone exuding this much arcane energy without even trying. Look at this man. He’s wearing a denim jacket and yet he gives off powerful fae vibes through the music alone

[@hanami741]

that's an interesting insight, i've never thought about him this way but it is soo true. He wears super plain clothes and doesn't do any voodoo on the stage, but yet he's known as forest daddy xD. And it's so funny when other artists try so hard to have their own style with elaborate makeup and clothes and if you are a pure talent, you don't have to, nobody will even notice

[@wizzmaw3093]

And what I love about that is that he only has that vibe when performing. In interviews and such he just comes across as a very pleasant and rational person

[@gerose1964]

I think it was David Lee Roth ""If you can't do it in a T-shirt & jeans under one white light bulb, you can't do it".

[@jordynraji8518]

His intelligence activates in the business of course he grows in complete perfection in musical mode assignments so much easier & the day so much better👌 ♥️вℓєѕѕιηցѕ нσʑιєя🇺🇸

[@cosman24]

:)

[@emiliearriaga3704]

His voice makes my heart physically ache (in a good way)

[@sunshine-bs2jx]

Me too x

[@kitty6720]

He doesn't even need a microphone, nor does he need any effort - his voice flows so flawlessly.

[@kaygallardo-berry3214]

The background singers are phenomenal. wow can't wait to see him in May!

[@bellejour5983]

Unbelievably good performance of this irresistable song.

[@ams1890]

He’s not even 30, I feel like a total loser...🤓 my god, he’s a gift to us all...total 💯 RESPECT thank u Hozier 🤘🏻💋✊🏻 #power +...I’m impressed with his backup singers & musicians ...total class act #power #fan4life #hozier

[@CherryEmikoHime107]

His voice is heaven omg wtf

[@sunshine-bs2jx]

Breathtaking ❤️

[@a.clarke6997]

6'6" of heaven. Miraculous.

“Power is when my love reaches for me”

[@austinfull8941]

I'm just here to appreciate his violinist Suzanne Santo, who also makes great music, check her out. (She's also his guitarist in most of his performances)

[@loyaltyoptimismversatilityerud]

His bassist is Alex Ryan

[@madboyartistrymua8313]

Everyone looks and sounds so beautiful

[@MinervaAzure]

Oh dear! His live performance so powerful 🥰

[@annmariemitchell9309]

❤Amazing. I could listen to Hozier sing this all day and never tire of it!!😊xx

[@user-lr5fh8wl9i]

I love this man for the music he creates. What I'd give to hear and see what's in his head for a day.. His lyrics are so dark, but he makes them sound nice.

[@hanami741]

yeah, songs like 'cherry wine' or run' are super dark and wicked. Once I read one funny comment that those songs just scream that he likes dominant women way too much (I can't remember how they said it but it was the conclusion xDDD)

[@netizenrealness]

he's so beautiful, ok😚

[@cristiangomez1307]

REAL TALENT. KING HOZIER.

[@robsonnoia4512]

Dude, Hozier seemed to be without patience to sing this song, and if he really was without patience then have more impatience, for I have never seen him sing this way, amazingly wonderful ... gave shivers!

[@ensasanxhaku9300]

They're incredible. So amazing this much talent has come together

[@2DesiUKsi]

Oh my god ❤️I love him. This new album is life. Thank you so much Hozier.

He reminds me of Mary J Blige and her émotion when sining .

[@BILAMINAA]

Как всегда превосходно

[@imudalif]

он просто потрясающий:*

[@alishaw2454]

why does he look like he's giving a lecture to a bunch of students lol

[@irmaamri6249]

Because he is 😬

[@luithbert]

Why can't the album sound like this?

[@inirotimi]

Luis Bazan he said theres a certain freedom that performing live gives him over studios. thats why his albums 10/10 but his lives break all scales

[@luithbert]

@@inirotimi live certainly blows the recording away. I'm referring to the vocal compression they do to his voice in the album. His first album had awful sound when his style lends itself to have excellent musical fidelity.

[@amberperson9418]

Keep tweeting him and his record company to release a live album.

[@luithbert]

@@amberperson9418 That would be fantastic if it were to happen!

What does He sings in the second part? Can anybody help?

Emiliano Conzuelo Second verse: It’s not what’s in front but who’s beside you It’s all that came before and what it provides you All those who held the line Who wouldn’t bow down and resign It’s not the waking, it’s the rising.
