    Imagine a world where even half the population were as thoughtful and empathetic as this man and the other half valued and aspired to embodying those traits. We have so much potential for goodness. We could be that if we wanted to. I want that for us.

      We don’t need to imagine it- it’s already here. I think people fall into the trap of putting artists on a pedestal and assuming they are some demi-god compared to the average person.
      Have you seen those interviewers that go on the streets and ask regular people to talk about their lives e.g Humans of New York?
      Most of the regular folk you see everyday are having the most profound thoughts in their head. Most people are thoughtful and kind and insightful. Not everyone has the gift of creating art to express this outwardly and not everyone has the honour of sharing themselves and being interviewed on a broadcast.
      The world is a beautiful place. Even the so called ‘villains’ have their role in the plot. Think about all the beautiful literature, poetry, visual art and music created out of sorrow, pain and grief?
      The full spectrum of humanity exists in a constant state of balance. If we go out everyday expecting the goodness in people- I guarantee you the world will reflect this back to you ✨🫶🏾

    This is a fantastic interview. I really appreciate how the interviewer gave Andrew space to really explain Unreal, Unearth and emphasized the power of Take me to Church not as a commodity but as a protest anthem. Also, he totally respected Andrew’s boundaries 👌🏻

    The depth of emotions one can see on Hozier’s face when they are talking about how Take Me to Church has been used around the world as people protest injustices is something special to see. I can’t imagine everything he is feeling in that moment.
    I enjoyed Tom interviewing him. Thank you.

    Beautiful background on his music. Just to relate a little encounter. My daughter went his signing this summer in NYC. He was so kind , wrote the lyrics of a song for her. Admired her pen , she agreed it was nice. Offered it to him , he declined. Adorable man. Also she filmed him, filming his opening act at the MSG concert. He in turn filmed her . Truly was a fun part of the amazing concert. I wish him happiness and continued success.

    Oh to travel back in time and to be lectured by Hozier about Dante in secondary school instead of my teacher who was very boring lol
    Very proud about the most iconic pillar of our national literature being the inspiration for the majestic oeuvre that “Unreal Unearth” is! Can’t stop listening to it. One of my favourite albums of the year.

    Imagine going through a dark time and having him personally write a song for you. His music alone has been getting me through the past few months. The happiest day I had this year was when I was lucky enough to see him in concert. Adore this man and cannot wait to see how he continues to grow 🌻

    I just wish they didnt always ask him the same questions. He kindly answers and repeats them but I think interviewers should check if Dante's inferno question about the album wasn't already questioned like 5 times before

    This was a great interview. Well-researched and dug beneath the surface. Having watched a few of these interviews for this album cycle, it’s clear Hozier’s people or the record company footed the 10th anniversary of TMTC as a talking point, but his answer and specifically talking about Sarina was new and illuminating. Nice job.

    I would love to hear bits of the orignal songs that he talked about which were "to heavily based on dantes inferno". I love the album so much and new nothing about dantes inferno before, but now that ive hyperfixated on the album i would love to hear some of the songs based directly on it!

    This life is the closest to Hell you’ll ever experience if you believe in Jesus, as Lord and Savior.
    If you do not, then this earth is the closest you’ll ever get to heaven.
    For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten son that whosoever believes in Him will have everlasting life. John 3:16 Be sure to read 3:17-18 and you will understand even better.
