Lyrics:
Do you think I’d give up
That this might’ve shook the love from me
Or that I was on the brink
How could you think darling I’d scare so easily?
Now that it’s done
There’s not one thing that I would change
My life was a storm
Since I was born
How could I fear any hurricane?
If someone asked me at the end
I’d tell them put me back in it
Darling, I would do it again
If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I’d go through it again
I would still be surprised I could find you, darling
In any life
If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I would do it again
For all that was said
Of where we’d end up at the end of it
When the heart would cease
Ours never knew peace
What good would it be on the far side of things?
It was too soon
When that part of you was ripped away
A grip taking hold
Like a cancer that grows
Each piece of your body that it takes
Though I know my heart would break
I’d tell them put me back in it
Darling, I would do it again
If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I’d go through it again
I would still be surprised I could find you darling
In any life
If I could hold you for a minute
Darling, I would do it again
I would not change it each time,
Heaven is not fit to house a love
Like you and I
I would not change it each time,
Heaven is not fit to house a love
Like you and I
I would not change it each time,
Heaven is not fit to house a love
Like you and I
#Hozier #Francesca #UnrealUnearth
This should be your boyfriend's answer when you ask him if he would still love you if you were a worm.
THIS COMMENT CAUGHT ME SO OFF GUARD 😭😭😭✋
Only if he loved fishing
🤣🤣🤣
Lol ❤
WHY DO WE ALL ASK THAT? even if you don't want to ask it as a girl you know somewhere you know you asked it in one form or another. 😂
Born too late to explore the earth, born too early to explore the cosmos, born just in time to ascend with Hozier
I love this so much 😂
First introduced in 1876, Heinz Tomato Ketchup remains one of the best selling brands of ketchup. In 1907, Heinz started producing up to 13 million bottles of ketchup per year, exporting ketchup all over the world, including India, Australia, South America, Japan, Indonesia, New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom. Heinz ketchup is often served at restaurants in the United States and Canada, as well as many other countries. As a condiment for many foods, such as french fries, chips, hamburgers and hot dogs, Heinz ketchup uses the slogan, "America's Favorite Ketchup." As of 2012, there are more than 650 million bottles of Heinz Tomato Ketchup being sold every year throughout the world.
@@mynameismo7700who tf dips chips in ketchup? What are you, Canadian?
everyone dips chips in ketcup i swear, they're the chunky french fries if you're american
I would say that we born in the best time ever
"My life was a storm since I was born, how could I fear any hurricane?" This line is amazing knowing the context. Paolo and Francesca were two lovers who were killed by Gianciotto, Paolo's brother but also Francesca's husband, when he found out they had a relationship. In the Divine Comedy, Dante puts both of them in the second circle of Hell, Lust. Their punishment is to be eternally buffeted about by a hurricane so strong that tears their bodies apart-- which is a metaphor to represent how they let themselves be ruled by their lust without controlling it.
Oh, thank you. I didn’t know what the reference was. I’d also forgotten that the album is loosely organized around the nine circles of hell.
Thank you
@@musiclover-cu5jy 9 so we'll have more songs
Thank you Betryl.
Thanks for the context!
"Love, which pardons no one loved from loving in return, seized me for his beauty so strongly that, as you see, it still does not abandon me." - Francesca, in hell, met by Dante.
Hello fan
Can you explain this to me please?
@@Jaqvander I haven't read Dante but from my take on the quote it seems she was in a relationship prior to her true love and the quote is saying that even though she was loved by someone, love doesn't care about that sometimes and she ended up falling in love with someone else while in a relationship and she loved him so truthfully that even in hell she loves him
@@honeybee8059yes! it’s a reference to the story of Paolo and Francesca. Their story is introduced by Dante with that sentence, if i’m not wrong
I love this quote. Great selection! 😇💫
"heaven is not fit to house a love like you and i"
sir excuse me WHAT
YOU CANT JUST DROP THIS MASTERPIECE AND EXPECT ME TO MOVE ON WITH MY LIFE???
wait, does he mean that their love is too great for heaven to hold or that the love is more... idk, toxic/dirty, that it's not fit for a pure place like heaven?
@@rj-hg1kq i think it's both!! hozier has often written songs about loving another person being more holy/righteous than any religion (especially seen in take me to church) so i think it could go both ways :)
@rj i think the context is more fitting on this, when you look at the divine comedy and the story of Francesca and Paolo, since they were put in the second circle of hell, lust, for their absurd relationship
@@shreeteshthapa1387 oh thanks, i'll look into that :)
SERIOUSLY THOUGH
every time i decide which hozier lyric i want to get tattooed...he drops something even more mindblowing. at this point i'm just going turn myself into a billboard for his discography 😭
Literally me 🤣🤣🤣
Please send me your selection, i can NEVER choose
There's far too many golden lyrics out there!
fellow genshin and Hozier enjoyer, you must have immaculate taste
Sameeee 😅😂❤
Suddenly my name is Francesca
This comment wins so much I just gotta put this out there 😂
That's my real name
I feel blessed
@@Fran-ku5nw just letting you know we’re all jealous of you
@@tamyawaiters7078 :) hehe thanks i guess
no cuz now Im genuinley curious who this Francesca is >)))
Sobbing, screaming, absolutely shattered. His new releases are all PERFECT for my current situation
That's the Aha! Aha! part in the chorus. All of us weeping with Paolo
Paulo?
@@musiclover-cu5jy Paolo, referencing to Dante's Inferno's Francesca and Paolo
sobbing, crying, throwing up, dying. this song is so fucking good
Im here weeping like. My heart is strung tight
Paolo and Francesca were lovers in real life and in Dante’s Divine Comedy, condemned to hell for their lust. In hell they are still together and (because they are in hell) incapable of remorse for their sin, therefore their love becomes eternal because of their damnation
I was actually born in a blizzard, so the line "My life was a storm since I was born; how could I fear any hurricane," hits me. My life has never been stable, but whenever there are songs or stories that have lines like this I remind myself that I can be strong. My "Francesca" has been the eye of my hurricane for four years now and she makes every uphill battle, every whirlwind, every circle of hell worth it. One minute with her makes everything worth it.
This is so beautiful. I feel happy for you 🤍
This just warmed my heart
Oh man. This is profoundly beautiful. All the best to you and your “Francesca”!
Beautiful ❤️
Oh boy my favorite part of Hozier, do I want to be the singer or the muse. He has such a way of explaining love in ways no one else can.
Such power in the phrase "Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I"
August 18th can't come fast enough
I gotta wait till October
July 5th for me :))
January 22nd!
I'm not a religious person but Hozier's music takes me to another place
I went to a Hozier concert recently and I can confirm his music turns the audience into a congregation
It’s purely spiritual in a way that religion could never even attempt to move me
perhaps it might even possible take you to church..?
@@gracehenshall-flynn5420 lmaooo
religious =/= spiritual
"Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I"
Hozier never fails to make me cry.
He certainly knows who to quote from. Hozier is great, and just like Dante was writing fanfic based on his favourite Roman and quoting Virgil willy nilly, Hozier's doing the same thing. The line is straight out of Dante.
Let’s talk about Francesca!
Francesca da Rimini or Francesca da Polenta was a medieval noblewoman of Ravenna.
She fell in love with Paolo, the younger brother of her old and deformed husband Giovanni, who she had married as part of a political strategy only.
Enraged at their betrayal, Giovanni slew both Paolo and Francesca where they laid.
In Inferno, Dante and Virgil meet Francesca and her lover Paolo in the second circle of hell, reserved for the lustful.
I believe that this song could be from the point of view of either Francesca or Paolo, saying that it was all worth it, that they would literally go through hell again If they could be together one more time.
Very Hozier of them 🥺
I am absolutely in love with it! What do you all think about it? 🤎
Thank you for this!!!
I stared at those worms and dirt for what felt like hours before being held here.
I've always found Dante very harsh for putting them in hell. They had no choice.
@@goro_majima98 in his writing, it’s clear that he’s sorry for them. He doesn’t judge them and doesn’t give them such a harsh punishment since they are still together.
For me, poetically, thats Paolo's point of view. In the Comedy, Dante only talks to Francesca. Maybe, only now by Hoozier, we hear about what surpasses Paolo's. Dante did the same with this two lovers, noticing them.
My best friend died six weeks ago. I've been too consumed by my grief to listen to any music, but by god this song sums up my emotions so well. I would wander through every single circle of hell, climb every mountain and swim every ocean and experience every bit of agony I've ever been through all over again, two times over if I could just hold her for one more minute. I will look for her in this life, the next, and every life my soul will live, probably including past ones. This song, paired with Unknown, have resonated with me so deeply and helped me realize that I'm not as alone as I feel I am. Maybe this was a bit trauma-dumpy, but I just wanted to share this true testament to how deeply soul-healing Hozier's music is. I don't know who this man sold his soul to to make this kind of life-altering music, but it must've been a worthwhile transaction.
I am so sorry for your loss.
Beautifully said I’m so sorry for your loss. May her memory be a blessing .
Im sorry for your lost, im glad this songs made you feel something positive again, and I know grief is hard and long but it feels lighter with time and love. I wish you very happy things from now on❤️
Just wow …… this is what life is about the raw emotions. Beautifully written. I am sorry for your loss of your soulmate.
I am so sorry for your loss. I know it’s not easy. my dad passed away when I was very young so I know grief is so exhausting. can I pray for you?
Clawing my face off, kicking in the drywall, eating every piece of glass in a 50 mile radius
I can't even imagine how ethereal this song will sound performed live.
I went to a small concert before this was released and he played it as a gift. I wish I could go back in time to that moment every day it was AMAZING
This is perhaps my least favourite song on the album and yet live it was perfect and incredible.
There is no song that this man creates that I don't appreciate! He truly is a gifted artist.
Getting real "Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine" energy from this. Highest compliment. Every time the song ends, I tell them put me back in it
absolutely real
like ‘sun bleached flies’ by ethel cain
HIS VOICE! 😍 This is amazing!!! I am so excited to see him this October.
isn’t he playing in raleigh in oct?? i think i’ll be there too
Yessss! And seattle and vancouver
@@yaugernet Portland for me!
Mee too!!!!
I'll see him November 1st!!! I hope all y'all have so much fun!!!!!!
As I've been severely lacking in my reading of Irish poetry, but absolutely love the Divine Comedy, being able to actually appreciate all of Hozier's literary references with this album is so incredibly fun. Amazing songs, and I feel like I can experience them on an even deeper level now
"My life was a storm since i was born how can i fear any hurricane... heaven is not fit to house a love like you and i ".... this gives me shivers , with hozier you can really feel the lyrics, the music, its really well composed as a whole thing but even if you separate this elements it just keeps Being pure art by itself, when you get to appreciate this things in live its really Worth it.
I have never been so happy to be named 'Francesca' in all my life! And the song is beautiful, it makes me tear up! xx
Same!
Me too😭😭. This is my love song
I believe that I’ve been gifted by the heavens the honor of having my favorite artist making a song with my name on it
Hello fans
same girl!!
I’m literally weeping!!! What can’t Hozier do!!!! Literally the rock 80’s influence is so strong!! I can’t wait for the album to come out!!! I’m died, decreased, buried 6 feet in the ground already! I’m gonna be in heaven when august comes around
Yes! Every other new song I think wow this is the return of the power ballad
The into has been stuck in my head for days and I'm so glad to have the rest of the song to go with it now
God i cant explain what this song makes me feel...... Maybe a longing about love like that... i love it so much. As usual Hozier has given us a masterpiece.
Although it seems this song is about losing a girlfriend/ spouse. The lyrics resonate with me so much as I sit next to my dad in a hospice, who’s on his last legs because of cancer. When he passes he can join my mother in heaven. They can be with each other. And as the song speaks of, I wouldn’t change a thing of my childhood up until now, no matter how painful. If I could relive being with my parents, knowing I’d lose them again, I would. Thankyou Hozier, for producing such a beautiful song ❤
more strength and power to you, loads of love to you and your family. keeping your father in prayers
Love to you, Ella. I am fighting to hear the song the exact same way as you for almost the same reasons. I truly wish I could give you some soup and a hug.
I am so so sorry. I lost my dad to cancer as a young child and this song really resonantes. grief and the unknown is scary. can I keep y’all in my prayers?
another bop from the grave
how many times is this dude going to be resurrected for our serotonin
i'm crying at 9am. this is wonderful. the raw emotion and power in his voice is magical.
Too much
Somehow I missed the notification....just listened and I'm bawling like a baby....I've seen him 6 times now, I was really waffling about seeing him this tour but this song convinced me, I just dropped $200+ for a GA ticket to Chicago, i should have trusted my gut and got tickets when they dropped lmao
If love doesn't feel like this then I don't want it
Lyrics for those of us that like to be able to read in their own time:
Do you think I'd give up.
That this might've shook the love from me,
or that I was on the brink.
How could you think, darling I'd scare so easily?
Now that it's done,
There's not one thing that I would change.
My life was a storm
Since I was born.
How could I fear any hurricane?
If someone asked me at the end,
I'd tell them put me back in it.
Darling, I would do it again.
If I could hold you for a minute,
Darling, I'd go through it again.
I would still be surprised
I could find you, darling in any life.
If I could hold you for a minute,
Darling, I would do it again.
For all that was said
Of where we'd end up at the end of it.
When the heart would cease
ours never knew peace.
What good would it be on the far side of things?
It was too soon
When that part of you was ripped away.
A grip taking hold
like a cancer that grows,
Each part of your body that it takes.
Though I know my heart would break,
I'd tell them put me back in it.
Darling, I would do it again.
If I could hold you for a minute,
Darling, I'd go through it again.
I would still be surprised
I could find you, darling in any life.
If I could hold you for a minute,
Darling, I would do it again.
I would not change it each time.
Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I.
I would not change it each time.
Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I.
I would not change it each time.
Heaven is not fit to house a love.
Like you and I.
Tysn!!!!! ❤
so happy I got to experience this type of music in my life
Going through a very hard break up right now. This song breaks me but I ain’t mad at it. Thank you Hozier.
Am I the only one who lost their Hozier loving soul mate? This song is speaking to me from the other side, hitting my core, my existence like only Hozier can do. Sad and happy moments all wrapped into one. Damn. ❤
There isn’t a word to describe this amazingly beautiful gift.
This song makes me want to live my life to the fullest and experience the most I can
It amazes me that I live in the same lifetime as Hozier
Never thought I would listen to a song by my favorite artist with my name on the title! But this is amazing just like the rest of his music 💛
babe wake up new song hyperfixation just dropped
I feel like this is gonna be his next radio banger. I could be wrong, but it's got a very indie rock vibe and people love that.
I felt that as soon as I listened to it, too. A variety of people will love the sound and words, especially the chorus.
I was in a sports-type restaurant and guess what came on? I was so happy!
This feels straight out of the early 2000s and it’s incredible
Andrew, again you've managed to steal my breath while my heart is racing. Only you can make sonic poetry like this. I love your wild spirit. Cannot wait to hear the full album and see you live again!!
Damn this bitch, put herself on a first name basis with him 😂
God... to have the love like Hozier's love
Dancing wildly whilst sobbing at 6am...this is just...everything. amazing!!!! 💜💜💜
Meeeeee
Hello lovely fans
Ah yes good omens anthem
I love how much his Irish Accent is so clear in this song right from the get go to the very last second ❤❤❤❤
my god...iam speachless. thank you hozier. i was in such a depressive time of my life. but you, Hozier, were able to give hope to this Francesca with your song. Thank you so much.❤
I love this! me too, it’s so cool to have this song for us Francescas
Hoziers voice sounds like the true raw inbodyment of peace. He can sing of anything, love, loss, the world honesty everything... no matter what it is I am immediately made tranquil by his beautiful music...
The fact he can create music that ACTUALLY makes you feel like you’re in a cyclone is just peak artistry
My name is Francesca I literally SCREAMED when I saw the title, the song is SOO good
This man, every song is a masterpiece. I love him.
The devotion in this dark flawlessly descriptive song that pledges eternal damnation is perfection!!!!!! Can't wait to here it in person in September.
Hell yeah 🎉
I've been listening to this man for years and I love all his songs.
Fighting the urge to just send this to my partner without any context. He doesn't understand English well so he would probably just be confused. I met him through my abusive ex. That man almost ruined my life, but if I could go back I would do it again, as the song says, because I wouldn't have met my love otherwise. I'm so glad I have him. I'm never letting go.
I bet that sound he makes in the chorus is the sound of Paolo weeping. He might've been an incoherent wreck in Dante's presence but Hozier gave him voice
Today was my last day in high-school, I know this song is about something completely different but the beginning of the chorus really hit hard today, thank you Hozier❤
ahh mine is in 4 days :]!!! congrats to you!!
@@cottontaelle5863 congrats to you too! I hope everything goes the way you want it to!
@Loneshewolf TNF it was my last day of college yesterday and I played this, it felt so liberating
@@hanguangjunpei wow, that sounds liberating. The song really does hit the occasion😅congratulations btw I hope you find success
HEAVEN IS NOT FIT TO HOUSE A LOVE LIKE YOU AND I AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
This song sounds like something that would play at the finale of a series when a character is at the brink of dying
im loving hearing his accent so prominently in all the new music
And should a man never say to me, along the lines, "heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I," let me drift alone into the daylight. In eight minutes time, I'll have passed you all by.
Most excellent, Hozier.
i love how he didn't notify us of a release date for francesca he was just like "here, enjoy"
A poet like him or nothing >
I’m on my seventh listen and it’s not even been out for an hour yet. This is truly one of the best songs I’ve ever heard, already taking its place as my favourite song of Hozier and possibly my favourite song of all songs ever to exist
Me too, been a fan since the get go but like, I'm floored....missed the notification somehow but been repeating for about an hour....I've seen him live 6 times but I was waffling on tickets to this tour....just dropped $200+ on a GA ticket for Chicago lmao
SO MY NAME IS FRANCESCA,
AND I AM CRYNG SINCE THE FIRST 2 SECONDS
The most beautiful love song that I've ever heard
I've had this on repeat for 2 days now and I haven't stopped crying.
Hey Hozier team! You guys got the Unreal Unearth album release date mixed up in the description! It says April 18 instead of August 18. Thanks for all you do!
This song came at the perfect time. A great reminder not to give up
My god, everything that this man sings is magnificent, and this music makes me remember about my wife. Feels like he wrote this music for us.
Hozier really saw Dante's concept of contrapasso, the concept of the souls in the inferno WANTING to stay in the inferno and said: "I am going to make an album that encapsulates the hell all of us choose to live in and find comfort in every time we learn to love someone or something" and I, for one, love him for it.
(on another note: if he's making songs based off souls we meet in hell then I cannot wait for the song inspired by Judas Iscariot that's going to kill me, surely)
For those who don't know, this seems to be from the perspective of Paolo from the Inferno of Dante's Divina Comedia--Paolo and Francesca were two lovers who were whirling about in hell, caught up by the chaotic winds of their uncontrolled and destructive love.
Cool how much his accent's coming through on this song
I was thinking the same, love it
I hope that some evening in 30 years, I'll hear this in a supermarket and look back on the time I spent with the person it reminds me of.
I don’t know what the rest of the album is going to sound like but this one is absolutely beautiful and probably the best song I’ve ever heard in my lifetime ❤
I went into a record shop and asked if they had the second Hozier cd four years ago. The clerk said he had none in stock. He also said that it would be impossible for Hozier to surpass the success of the first album. Well, he surpassed the first album and now (I believe) has surpassed the second album, He and his music are aging like fine wine! Bravo!
Oh dear god, this song! Going to get a bit poetic here but what else can I say? How can it make me so moved to tears yet leaving me aching to hear it again? His words are always like a rope around your heart.The ending choral is the ringing of heaven. To be parted like this, and to have know such love would rip your very soul apart. Needing to contine, over and over despite the pain, just to be able to hold on to their memory and never let them go.
*SpongeBob glowing and levitating meme* bc I have ascended whilst listening to this ethereal song and his amazing voice 🤯😭😭 this man is a lyricist genius
The end of the song where there seems to be the *faintest* yelling of “Francesca!” in the background is SO Eurydice and Orpheus to me and I’m going to sob violently over it
I have never shed a tear to a song.....
I love how his Irish accent really comes through on Darlin’ and Surprised 😍
An album by Hozier inspired by Dante's Inferno? With this beautiful song inspired by Paolo and Francesca's canto as the lead single? Gentlemen, you had my curiosity, but now you have my attention
my neighbours have to accept this track is also a part of their lives now
the fact the instruments are so loud over the when the "i would not change it each time heaven can not hold a love like you and i" is SO cool because it makes it feel like it can't be held on to because it's so big so loud aaaa
this song seemed boring at first but by the end i was absolutely shattered i havent felt something like this in a long time. truly beautiful
For sone reason I didn't expect this song to go this way! It's very intresting 💚 Love you, Hoizer!
Francesca is most likely a reference to the Story of Paolo and Francesca from Dante's comedy
this is one of the best songs i've heard in years
So excited!! Thank you for always making us smile!
I can't stop listening to this. There is so much passion, it's so ethereal but also raw. Man, this is a masterpiece
When he says “you grabbed me by the taint and turned this sinner a saint” really hits me.
was expecting the intro to be my fav part after he started teasing it but damn it kept getting better🥲 to be loved that much…
my heart just wrenches everytime this song is on. what a masterpiece.
53s ago! Thank the lord for notifications. I’ve been waiting for this song since it was announced. Absolutely love Hoziers music. Much love ❤️. Been a fan since 2017 and he’s been my #1 fav ever since
Hozier’s music is unparalleled.
What a wonderful voice. I love his singing.
I'm so so excited to hear this music live
my soul has been cleansed once more. thank you bog man 🛐
If this song existed in 8-D audio, I think it would absolutely blow me out of the water and destroy my brain with dopamine
I’m not a very happy person, but everytime I listen to Hozier and Kaleo, I may have a glimpse of the adjective.
listened to this for the first time yesterday- my soul has been soothed on a level i did not know existed and i feel calm now- this has been a useful discovery :3
