Don’t tell me he has a bit of a dark side to him lol

[@sabsdelgado]

Turns out I didn’t discover Hozier through “take me to church” back in middle school, but rather via his hit song, “monster mash” back during my kindergarten Halloween cupcake party, nice.

[@Jack-o-smasher]

Same tho- (Pre-K, it was one lit as hell sleepover.)

[@papl20]

imagine being creepy jenny and being asked by hozier "is there a mr creepy, jenny?" DEATH

[@zelbernil3790]

So obvious he wanted to be Mr. Creepy Jenny 😭

[@girllord78]

I'm not creepy Jenny, but let me tell you something... when I heard him saying that.... my soul left my body, but my body proceeded to let out the creepiest sound any living creature could've witnessed

"Is there a Mr. Creppy-I'm just kidding! ehe-AHEM"

Did not expect him to fall in love with Creeping Jenny

[@zelbernil3790]

I dunno, from his lyrics alone I suspect he thinks zombies/resurrecting corpses are the height of romance 😂

[@Pinnfeathers]

Seems kind of on brand, actually 😆 Have you heard In A Week?

[@saragomez6605]

I am newish to the Hozier fandom, can someone explain to me the monster mash inside joke?

[@alexgrant948]

I feel similarly about Werewolves of London.

[@janeb612]

“Victoria-HA-thirteen!” 😭 ANDREW!!!

[@sistaoutsider303]

Legit screaming 😭😭

[@terrakengo]

Hozier writes songs on dares, like “How about write a song riffing off a 1700s parody about cannibalism of children but make it uncomfortably sexy so that we need to take a cold shower in bleach after hearing it, and do it in first person, unapologetically wearing a colonizer skin suit,” and he’s like, “Challenge accepted.”

[@mightme6887]

Omfg. I don't think I'll ever be able to think that this isn't the truth, anymore. Thank you for the laugh.

[@leif1075]

Which song was that?? And why would someone dare him.that? And what is the Monster Mash joke..I don't get it..

[@mightme6887]

@@leif1075 Monster Mash is a song that came out in the 1960's, and the song that she's referring to is most likely "Eat Your Young." I say most likely, because I'm not sure that it's the only one which fits that description.

I think your comment made it into an interview

[@papl20]

i was about to fight tooth and nail with the man when he dared to say that "no song is appropriate for a wedding" but he saved himself with work song, because of course, work song IS the pinnacle of wedding songs

[@zelbernil3790]

Like Real people do too, sure the digger was a bit shady digging in the middle of the night, for what? but hey both found love in each other anyway so good for wedding bells too

[@katybienz9012]

Better Love would be a great wedding song

[@shreebubbles]

@@zelbernil3790 i was thinking it would make a nice funeral and wedding song in a way

[@itsme_taylorlee]

My vote is In a Week. So romantic if you’re into that sort of thing.

[@felicitypevideos4224]

I’ve always thought almost (sweet music) would be an odd choice lyrically but has the right tone. To noise making (sing) also has a beautifully romantic chorus. I’ve always planned a chet baker first dance and hozier for the last dance of the night.

[@ingridmiller6188]

if I were creeping Jenny I would simply pass away omg

[@eeeeee2919]

FR LIKE IS SHE OKAY ✋😭

[@MariaDanieladelaRosa]

6:39 WAS HE FLIRTING OMG!???? First time ever i've seen him do that on interviews, so funny.

[@zelbernil3790]

so I guess the thing that'll get you in flirty banter with Hozier is your creepy factor? So 30 year old Wednesday Adams? Goth girl? Ghost girl?

[@anoukb156]

😏😂😂😂😂

[@otoshithekid2957]

My boy folded for Creepy Jenny

[@nishigandhasarma7644]

Them: suggest a song that shows that it will get better eventually. Hozier: suggests a song about dying to prove that we will die so this shitty life will end someday. Us: yeah that's on brand

[@Dr.W1zard]

I mean, he's got a point there

[@angrylittletrees1592]

Pisces energy

[@dan9806]

The last one gave us a glimpse of another side of Hozier. It was really nice seeing him react that way especially when you're into his music for the heartbreak songs haha. It was like a pickup line that clearly worked because he looked at the profile photo immediately afterwards and jokingly asked if there was a mister creeping jenny. My guy, go get it haha

[@paularodriguez726]

This man really said there’s no song of his for a wedding when Nobody exists. It’s my favorite song

[@kathleenheneghan8670]

I picked Movement for that one. :)

[@astrobrat4]

I love knowing that he calls himself out in 3rd person

Man his singing voice is beautiful and now after hearing him talk, damn !!!! he's got a great voice !!!!

[@bigpigeon2002]

he seems like hes getting more used to press stuff and more confident and i love that. if you compare this hozie to 10 years ago hes a lot more confident. probably just aging too and being more sure of himself. hes gonna be the kinda dude whose gonna age like george clooney. you can see it now.

You literally will always find me in the kitchen at parties.. You do this and help out the people throwing the party (hopefully you know them) you can look busy and can check out whenever you need because you need to go take care of something.

I couldn't not smile while watching this. Also can't believe that my favorite song of all time (Kathy's Song) is also beloved by Hozier. Nice.

Several others where interviewers have made comments about being attracted to him after the interview. The only real flirty one of him was an interaction with a woman in the audience - can’t find it. In England - she called out ‘we love you’ and he ‘answered ‘the feelings mutual’ and more interaction - of course, totally sweet and respectful.
