I'm a 62 yr old guy that works a boring factory job. I was working with a summer helper when a good old song came on the radio and the girl knew it and liked it which surprised me. we talked music a little and she said I should make her a song list. I did. Etta James, Nils lofgren, Ray price, all over the board, all good music. when I gave it to her I said she had to make me one back. this was the first song on her list. in 5 seconds I loved the song. By the time they finished the chorus the first time thru i said to myself "this HAS to have been a huge hit. how come I don't know this song??" she's off work now and I don't know when this came out, was it a huge hit and I just plain missed it, or is it brand new? I don't even know how to pronounce the groups name. any insight you can provide will be anxiously awaited. thanks for listening
This came out a couple of years ago. I never heard this song of his on the radio. I just listened to it after I listened to take me to church (the song he’s known for which played on the radio bunches a couple years back). If you like this I’d recommend listening to his other songs someone new, take me to church, and arsonists lullaby. All good songs of his that never got played on the radio. And you pronounce his name hose-yer. Hope I could help ya out a little
His name is Andrew Hozier-Byrne. Better known to his friends as simply "Hozier". He's from County Wicklow just down from the road from me in deepest, darkest Ireland. It's pronounced "Hoe-zee--yer" and he's a formidable talent, clearly.
Nice story my friend! 😉 You should definitely look up Shawn James. Bloodhound, trough the valley, burn the witch to name a few of his songs. He's great, and reminds me a lot of Hozier, just with more dirty old blues and a testosterone filled voice. 🔥
so tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes no better version of me I could pretend to be tonight so deep in this swill with the most familiar of swine for reasons wretched and divine
she blows outta nowhere Roman candle of the wild laughing away through my feeble disguise no other version of me I would rather be tonight and lord she found me just in time
"She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily. Better yet she wouldn't care" These lyrics are so adorable because can you just imagine hozier babbleing on and on about something that doesn't make any sense to anybody besides hozier and people are starting to stare and this girl being like oh don't worry guys he's just being himself ans proceeding to kiss his cheek and hold his hand
Imagine this: You're Jackie, all your life, you and your little brother, Wilson have been raised by your carefree parents. You live in a house in the middle of the woods, with a creek nearby. Feel free to add on!
From my point of view, this song is about a person who got to trully know his or herself at the same time they got to know romantic love. It's such a innocent and fresh but desperate feeling, they are desperate to be saved and experience life the way they always desired but fear this may end as they realize they (the person end their lover) are still too immature and unable to grow together. If they intend to stay together, they Will have to be strong and walk hand-in-hand through their first adulthood experiences, which is way harder than doing it alone.
To me it's about a one night stand. He goes to night club or something putting up a facade. Meets a girl, she calls him out on the facade, he starts to day dream about their future life together and the possibility of maybe throwing away all his facades and this person liking his genuine self (versions of myself buried in the yard outside) then as the girl is sleeping after they have had sex he has a moment of clarity and realizes its just meaningless sex and this person doesnt know the true him (digging up his facades from the garden)
To me its about a missed opportunity. He meets a girl that he has fun with and can have a night of relaxation after a long stressful period (the facades representing the various faces he has to put on for things like work and other responsibilities). He gets carried away with the feeling of letting loose and envisions and entire life like that night, with the girl he happens to be with, but then the night ends he has to "dig up" his old facades and go back to dealing with his respinsibilities, and the girl just leaves before he can figure out a way to get her to stay in his life longer. Its not so much about the girl herself rather than the feelings he's having at the moment and his idea of an idealic life - "Dig up the vindette for the poor soul that comes next."
To me it's about a young boy fresh out of a traumatic childhood and finding comfort in the escape of new young love but then he gets too caught up in his past again and screws their relationship up for himself but he still always has the memory of her and the relief she brought to him
@@thesarahjewel lol, I didn't even remember this song or comment I made Thanks for reminding me of it, I actually have no ideia of what to think of the lyrics now, barely remember them Crazy how much we leave behind with time and how many new things we pick up in two years time lol
Anyone else notice how he sang "I start digging up the years of what's left of me and our little vignette for whatever poor soul is coming next" and in his other son Like Real People Do it's about giving your partner the space and respect to grieve through their own past without demanding to hear about it, and he sings, "Why were you digging? What did you bury // Before those hands pulled me from the earth?" and later in the song he sings, "I knew that look, dear: eyes always seeking // Was there in someone that dug long ago // So I will not ask you why you were creeping // In some sad way, I already know." I interpret as understanding how hurt and scathed a heartbreak can leave the soul - so if his partner reacts impulsively with jealousy or doubt, he gets it. It doesn't justify it, but he understands where the emotion comes from because he's been wrecked before, too. Wow. I love this man.
Bold statement he's had success dang even a music video for Tarzan. Some artists out there got great talent and can't even get a deal. Js don't know if he is the the most underage
“Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside. Sit back and watch the world go by. Happy to lie back watch it burn and rust. We tried the world, good god, it wasn’t for us” These lines are so terribly relatable for me
In a Sense it is. The Black Iris is a famous painting by Keetle which represents the female genitalia. Although the actual meaning goes to Egyptian mythology. Isis was the goddess of love and she was seen as both the perfect example of a woman and a mother. Whilst the Black Iris is a representation of Death which rose from the death of the God Osiris who was killed by his brother Seth.
This song rocks.....well crafted lyrics....his voice is hauntingly beautiful.........just a matter of time before this song gets the air play it deserves
honestly this is quite personal but the only person I ever loved sent me this song saying it made him think of me. If I ever have a kid with him... I want to name them Jackie for this reason. hey James if you see this then uh hi, do you like that name?
I heard this song for the first time about 3 weeks ago. I've since played it about 1000 times. I can't get enough. When I feel sad (which is often), I play it and it makes me feel better.
I get phases where I love a specific playlist or artist for ages and won't play anything else Bro these last few months of lassical music with a touch of Hozier have been amazing, i totally get you:)
Kind of a sad song. Sees the girl, and starts imagining his world with her in it. Soon enough she’s gone and he’s making way for the next daydream. Kinda holds hands with his other song, Someone New.
i remember my dad playing this in the car when i was 10 - 11 years old during June going to Tim Horton's in the morning to get iced hot chocolate and a doughnut and it's one of my favorite memories with this song :)
I don't know why but this song always helps if i'm depressed...... We tried the world, good god, it wasn't for us. ;-) sitting on a roof listening to this song
I've written up the sheet music for anyone who wants to play this song here: www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/jackie-and-wilson-hozier-for-solo-piano-digital-sheet-music/21865880
Can you please please please do a lyric video of "run" yours are the best lyric bids I've found and there's only one in English and frankly, it sucks love your work man
be grateful for pain it builds charactor and sheds weakness from the body, and it makes you appriciate the times when your not in pain and its your reality while your in time. And we all deserve it anyway. But it can get much better
OMG SAME like it just seems like something Lucifer and amenadiele would like (sorry if I spelt his name wrong) but also the detective line reminds me of Chloe and Dan I’m glad someone else said this anyways have a good day even tho this comment is from a year ago lol
I think he’s saying he wants a sort of unyielding young love, like waiting for someone to get home before having a fun time on the town or smthn because he never got to do that by himself.

That's so fucked. I just read this as I listen to those lyrics in the song ..
I love the way he says it
so tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes
no better version of me I could pretend to be tonight
so deep in this swill with the most familiar of swine

I hope he finds that special someone he truly deserves.

Hozier is the most underatted artist out there.
Bold statement he's had success dang even a music video for Tarzan. Some artists out there got great talent and can't even get a deal. Js don't know if he is the the most underage
lmao, you ever heard of kaleo? hozier has been on the radio forever.
And yet... 2.3 million views. Hipsters man 😂🤣
Lmao what
Hozier can't be entirely human... he's too talented. I want to have his voices babies........
name 'em Jackie and Wilson
catlynruthramsden raise them on rhythm and blues
I know I'm late but how would that work? Just like sing to your cervix?
If Keanu Reeves sang like this, he would be the perfect human being!
He's human alright, I can tell by the lyrics. Wouldn't be surprised to hear he's been down to the crossroads, though.
“Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside. Sit back and watch the world go by. Happy to lie back watch it burn and rust. We tried the world, good god, it wasn’t for us” These lines are so terribly relatable for me
Their just so good
Can't decide if this song was written about me or not. Please don't name your children after me.
Too late my great grandchild is now Jackie Wilson the 3rd
It was at from the famous jazzist Jackie Wilson. Whom Hozier has great inspiration from
Holy shit
Oh my go😂 this is my favorite comment
PLS
“We tried the world, good God, it wasn’t for us.”
Why isn't this song more popular???
Veronica star What i'm wondering is why isn't this more popular than "Take me to Church".
Rakeeb Kahn Because Take Me To Church has an important message and this is simply a really good song.
oh that makes sense. Appreciate it!
Rakeeb Kahn You're welcome ^-^
Take me to church is about shooting up heroin.
"Me and my Isis growing black irises in the sunlight," makes me think of an impressionist painting...

She'll sooth me daily
Better yet she wouldn't care"
My favorite part of the chorus 💕👌

I wish lol
I’m here from the future. Sadly this never happened
@@dontfallyoumighthurtyourse4694 Yep, unfortunately, never.
This is without a doubt the best written song of our generation like y'all are sleeping on this genius piece of art
"Dad, why did you name me Wilson and my sister Jackie?"
"What, you don't already know?"
"No"
"You are not worthy of my love"
Randy Copeland. and why are we always listening to rhythm and blues??
Bryan Pritchett JAJAJJAJAA
I wonder how many twins, and children in general, are named Jackie and Wilson just because of this song...
honestly this is quite personal but the only person I ever loved sent me this song saying it made him think of me. If I ever have a kid with him... I want to name them Jackie for this reason. hey James if you see this then uh hi, do you like that name?
@@totallyrealnotfakelifeadvi7547 hey i dont know how to tell you this, but i dont feel the same way
@@darraghconnolly2553 Hi uh, I have no idea who you are
this is the kind of song that id tell my future children to listen too
Same
Your future children Jackie and Wilson?
Jonny Hunter maybe
you know this is about getting drunk and having a one night stand right?
+Daniel Coyne I need you to explain.... Please?
I thought he said, "we'll seal all exits, be detectives, run around picking up clues" close enough i guess. Makes me think of Scooby-doo.
The choir in the back makes me feel like I’m in complete euphoria, I love this song
All his music is poetic this guy is for real
I never felt young... That's our whole generation...
Pussifed is this unfortunate generation
i know and its so sad....
So happy there's a lyrical version of this song which works on mobiles!!! Thank you so much!! :)
Your perfectly welcome!
Kelvin Hallett straight up though. more hozier the better in my oppinion
spencer barrett the best artist to come out recently imo
Ryan Daly agreed
+Ryan Daly so ture

Yup wish i could have joined ya too
meeeeeeee
i want to join too and bang
I’m currently smoking a j with some dudes sitting in my garage with the door open while watching a summer storm brew 👌
Hell yeah
This song is amazing, Hozier deserves more recognition
This song always lifts me up. Hozier sings it in such a carefree manner. The lyrics are simply genius. Should be more popular.
I don't know why but this song always helps if i'm depressed......

My name is jackie and it's nice to finally have a song with my name in the title.
ethereal intoxicated canary try being named Sheldon, all I get are references to "the big bang theory".

What about the Ying yang twins?

still wanting on that hozier song i don't like.
right !
@Jom Jom Cabuang huh
3 years later and its still not happening my dude
Haha~ same!
I listen to this song at least 3 times every time it comes on my iPod
Teaching one of my students this song right now. Great song.
This song is so amazing! Havent listened to hozier for long but this by far is my favorite song.
Obssessedddddd with his album
So glad I finally discovered this song
I don't know why but this song always helps if i'm depressed......

What a masterpiece; right on time for me 🤓🙌🏼
gonna start my 2023 with this song!
Listening to this on road trips👌
I've listened to this probably 50 times today
Listening to this and day dreaming about my future with the love of my life is my favorite hobby
One of my favorites-Obcessed w Hozier...
I love his voice
Ain't no law saying you can't put this up in a higher (sound) resolution than 360p.
this song inspired our youtube channel name!
That's so beautiful
Makes me happy
My new favourite song :-)
I love this song SO much!!
Haven't heard it before. Nice!
I am recovering from a break up with my fiancée. This was made for me.
Just like the song man. She wasn’t for you, mate. On to the next one, eh? Hope the recovery has gone well 9 months later
There isn't a song by Hozier I don't like
same
I hate to say it but I really hate Run....if it comes on I jump to change it as fast as possible.
But I LOVE EVERY SINGLE BIT of everything else!!!
The chorus makes me think of this girl I know...
WHY DID I LAUGH SO HARD AT THIS COMMENT

This so reminds me of somebody.
Happy Birthday Hozier!!! 17th March St Patricks Day! Agggggghhhhhhhhhh
That snare sounds godly
Can I get someone else's opinion on the meaning of the lyric "I need to be youth fully felt cause God I've never felt young"
michael granillo no shut the fuck up
michael granillo It pretty much is saying that he never had a chance at a childhood and that he had to grow up fast.
he's jus trying to say he's an old soul
Wants to be youthful like a child.. carefree and innocent, but is an old soul
I think he’s saying he wants a sort of unyielding young love, like waiting for someone to get home before having a fun time on the town or smthn because he never got to do that by himself.
I JUST WANT SOMEONE TO LOVE ME LIKE THIS SONG FUCK
LMFAO
I always loved this song. Today would have been my ex wife and my 7th anniversary. Now I see this song came out 7 years ago.
If I could live in any song, it would be this one.
How the hell is this the first time I've heard this
This song is so underrated
lovely bit of squirrel
im so glad im not the only one who thought of that
It sounds so happy till you get to the end. The girl left.
Nevertheless, still a great song!!!!!
Friday night dinner 🤣
*Steal a Lexus

First time ever listening to this my boyfriend finally got me to and just wow wow is my only word

Yup, all his.
Oof, that last verse.
