Chatted with him once before a show and he's just a solid guy as well. Don't know how these musicians stand being away on tour from their little toddlers at home; a huge kudos to Rory for making the sacrifice and standing by his boss & friend to do the insanely taxing tours. No other like Rory but that's got to be really rough! Wishing he and his little family very well.

Ya me too❤

[@WeItschmerz]

⁠@@knott4me561I can’t fully understand your comment, but what I think you’re saying is that he’s already well-known because of his hit ‘Take Me To Church’. That was a one time hit, lots of people know that song only for its title and not the artist that sang it. Also that song is from ten years ago, so the new generation wouldn’t have really known him if he didn’t have another hit like Too Sweet. Now he’s better known by the current generation and better known this decade.

[@studiocelestedesign]

His staggeringly beautiful latest album Unreal Unearth should absolutely have won all the Grammys as well. Not a clue how it got missed, but he'll get his own back given it's absolutely timeless and will be delighting many generations to come. The skill of composition, lyrics, nuance, intent and THAT VOICE is the full compliment of gifts that aren't usually all handed out to one person. And he is endlessly kind & well-meaning. He's so rare.

[@meekcreek]

I absolutely agree. Unreal earth was fantastic from every perspective. However, if he wins a grammy tickets will go from 80$ to 300$ and f*ck that sh*t. In times like these its a blessing when mediocre records get the prizes

The Grammys are a popularity contest for the most part. Wouldn't read much into it.

@@meekcreek The industry machine is awful if it's left to it's own devices. But from what I've seen he seems super invested in making tix accessible to everyone; I was amazed at how low he kept his nosebleed general seating prices, they were just $40 or something. That's really generous of him. I got floor standing for just $140.

Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze? If you're drunk on life, babe, I think it's great But while in this world I think I'll take my whiskey neat My coffee black and my bed at three You're too sweet for me You're too sweet for me I take my whiskey neat My coffee black and my bed at three You're too sweet for me You're too sweet for me Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh I aim low I aim true and the ground's where I go I work late where I'm free from the phone And the job gets done But you worry some, I know But who wants to live forever, babe? You treat your mouth as if it's Heaven's gate The rest of you like you're the TSA I wish I could go along, babe, don't get me wrong You know you're bright as the morning, as soft as the rain Pretty as a vine, as sweet as a grape If you can sit in a barrel, maybe I'll wait Until that day I'd rather take my whiskey neat My coffee black and my bed at three You're too sweet for me You're too sweet for me I take my whiskey neat My coffee black and my bed at three You're too sweet for me You're too sweet for me Whoa, oh-oh Whoa, oh-oh Whoa, oh-oh Whoa, oh-oh Whoa, oh-oh Whoa, oh-oh Whoa, oh-oh Whoa, oh-oh I take my whiskey neat My coffee black and my bed at three You're too sweet for me You're too sweet for me

Which was criminal anyway because he's one of the few artist with albums that are consistently stacked to the brim with songs that could totally stand on their own as hit singles.
