Thank you Mum

Can he breathe underwater? Actually, nevermind, of course he can. He's a nature nymph.
It's the power of Forrest Daddy
@@liatsur hahahahahahahshshhajjkklmoze
lol
poor Raine losing all her art in one night..it truly hurts my heart. but i'm so glad that you get to show us your work on this album, it's breathtaking!
Fleur Tamara I know, how heartbreaking, but she spoke with such grace about it!
Raine did Hozier's first album too
ri8 it's like losing babies
*almost drowns*
Hozier: Not enough
*lights self on fire*
Lmao
didn't he bury himself for unreal unearth? now he has to figure out how to be in air and he'll have all four nations
I saw Hozier smile on a unicorn floatie. Officially happy now.
Jonnathan Ramirez I’m pretty sure my heart skipped a beat
Pretty sure I wanted to be a unicorn.

Best thing I seen all week
“Mom you were hoping to drown me”
Hahahahaha....
Imagine the record sales
Love you both. Thank you
Erase that
Lol
the cover is a painting?!?! literally incredible... such beauty from two generations 💖
Right? This whole time I thought it was a picture with really good photoshop... his mom's talent is beyond
I just thought it was a picture, because I’d seen images of the photoshoot before. But fuuuuuckkk
Devastated to hear his mothers art was destroyed in a fire, but so blessed that she is here to help her amazing son with the art for his art.
Though she's devastated I love how she's reframing it as a "fresh start". What an amazing woman
@@numericalhorror185 absolutely. A true artist in every way. My husband asked of she sells her art. Gotta go dig! Lol
Seriously, that made me teary. Her life's work, gone just like that. It goes to show how fleeting it all can be, and how you cannot get too tied to things, no matter how personal they are. Sometimes you have to let them go, and start all over again. (Reminds me of a girl I met during college - her family lost their home in a fire, everything gone, all photos, all mementos, everything. And she had a remarkable attitude about it all, because at some point they just had to say, "It's gone, we can't get it back, no one was hurt, we still have each other, so we move forward with memories.")
Good god that loss would be such a blow. Even if you shake it off and move forward (because well, you're forced to) that's just entirely awful. I honestly can't get over her technique & skill; she's startlingly gifted. Bless you Raine, and I hope new paintings have brought you many new joys! x
@@studiocelestedesign I looked into her work and it speaks to my soul. I am so glad we get this glimpse into her absolute artistry and what created the Forest God we know as Hozier. Shes incredible, and you can see how her parenting has impacted him, amd by proxy, us. I hope by now shes been able to recover a bit from the loss, amd make new work.
" Sometimes you can't look away, you have to be a witness. " Raine Hozier-Byrne
That gave me goosebumps ❤
Now i get where all that wisdom comes from
hozier is so humorously dark i love it
Naomi Pitocco lol yes me too.
Naomi Pitocco yeah, he’s like living Tim Burton character.
All Irish Ppl are.
thats just irish humour
“Flits between unbridled optimism and hopefulness, and then complete despair and nihilism, and then acceptance and just get the hell on with it to the end of the world” - no one has ever more accurately described my mood swings.
I know right? Feels like he's addressing you personally and completely understanding you at the same time
tell me about it
Abso-fucking-lutely.
Saaaaaaaame
Hozier spoke, 2020 complied.
WOW, I thought that the album cover was a photo, his mom is an amazing artist
Me too!
I thought so tooo!
Hozier looking like a whole snack
Snack? More like a whole meal 😍
@@wingsofblackandwhite4744 ... For real! ♥
WingsOfBlackAndWhite Yes exactly.
ffjsdlkfjks why did i read that as "whale snack"
anyway ur right
@@mallaidhdevlin4512 Yup, too much bone to flesh ratio to be whale meal so just snack it is...
As an oil painter I really admire his mum, not only does she have beautiful technique (the lighting, small details, realism, etc.) but she has a really admirable ability to portray things literally. She isn’t covering things in symbolism, instead she’s portraying them exactly and allowing that to be its own symbolism and meaning. She is a direct and beautiful artist. The fact she lost her works to fire is a tragedy indeed but I’m glad we still have more to see from her
So his MOTHER is where he gets his reflexive inhale between words
Now I can’t unhear it
its funny because a lot of irish people do the inhale between words! -From someone living in Ireland, who has also picked up on this lol
@@kidsareahassle oooh really?! I might just have to start doing this 😂😂
"i am a panderer. an absolute peddler of muck. a proud peddler"
I'm going to have that quote framed.
"That's not true... -_-" I love his mom too
*music cuts*
I can’t get over how tall he is
Same! Loool I just think about him laying down. He must be sooo long. Haha
Bde
Diem C he's 6'5 lol
Yes, not many men are blessed to be 6'6 like him. Love his height!
i guess you can't get over it because he's too tall ahahahaha
ill walk myself out
I’ll be honest Andrew, Raine is probably cooler than you.
I think he'll agree.
The sweetness between he and his mom, the appreciation they have for each other’s artistry and the world around them. Beautiful souls.
His lyrics love women as only a man who loves his mother can.
'' We are all gonna drown. Tally-ho boys!"- said with a beautiful smile on his face, quintessential irishness 😍
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. They’re both just so beautiful in how they think and visualise everything.
Thanks a lot ma'am for giving birth to such a masterpiece.
and for supporting him !
Robin Singh the painting or hozier? Lol
Now he is not only the forest king but also the mermaid king...
Next album; mountain king
I didn't notice that Dover Cliffs were painted on his chest in the cover until now. Can we get a series of art talks from Raine?
WOULD LOVE THIS OMG
I wouldn't even want her to focus on Andrew just talk about her work
Art talks from Raine; sign me up! She's a smart lady. Also, technique. Would love to see just how that level of realism is achieved. It's phenomenal.
Hozier in the unicorn floaty cured my depression.

I had no idea the cover was a painting! Done by his mother, no less!
Such an incredibly talented family.
“we’re all gonna drown, the sea levels are rising, tally ho boys”
-andrew hozier-byrne, 2019
Where did he say that? I love this quote so much lmao
7:03
Her artwork is utterly stunning! It’s such a shame that she lost so much in the fire, but it’s really inspiring that she’s continuing on despite the loss and creating such amazing beautiful pieces
So we FINALLY get to see the woman behind the art. Love ya, Mrs. Byrne.
Damn those aesthetics 💙
yeah, i love it, this 'darkness' is just so sexy, yet not creepy. I love that there is so much artwork around the whole album and there is a whole big concept around it, i bet there will be some music clips with this vibe too. So so different from stupid dancing video on the green-screen we normally see these days
And gotta love the touch of the unicorn floaty
opinion: andrew with wet hair looks like a springer spaniel
A fuckin HAWT Springer spaniel!!! XD
More like an Irish Wolfhound
Chrizelda Bernil or an irish red setter
@@FleurTamara Maybe a mix, coz only his beard, if long enough looks red. But the wolfhound's taller and bonier, scragglier too.
For me he look like Jesus
Him looking at his nails, while his mom’s bragging about his work ☺️. Love it
also actually spat out my drink in the submerged under water theme part saying that yes some songs are romantic but the other part is about the sea levels are rising & we're going to drown what an amazing contrast
That’s my mother in law y’all
Bidushi Pyakurel OUR mother in law 🥰🥰🥰
Everyone’s fairy mama
nabilah. Ooops yesss. Everyone deserves this beautiful beautiful man. We’re sharing.
O U R
this is socialism she is OUR mother in law
You can tell where Hozier gets his "deepness" from. Just listen to his mom talk. What beautiful, intelligent, artistic souls. 😍 xx
There are so many things I love about this, but Hozier putting his hand up when he wants to say something while his mum is talking is definitely my favourite
Very respectful but assertive as well
Roselle I thought that, so cute :)
I love hearing him singing but also speaking, and his mum is amazing too! 💙💙
I love that his mum says that his music treats his audience with respect. And I think that's one thing I love about it - it isn't assuming that music has to just be entertaining - his music is enjoyable and entertaining while also being deep and intellectual and challenging.
He said he won’t corroborate that, though. 😂 Hahahaha.. I absolutely love their very easy relationship!
I want to find the person who disliked this video and just hug them and ask what's wrong.
I thought this was going to end in "and beat the crap out of..." But you're a better and sweeter person than me.
They had a sad childhood
For a send there i thought... but then hugs. Theres still hope in the world
Don't forget to ask them if they've eaten... That could be the problem that started all of this

"We have to look out for each other. We have to stand up for each other. . .Sometimes you can't look away. You have to be a witness. You have responsibity to be a witness."
My God. Where has this wise woman been all my life?
I fell in love with her right there. No wonder he turned out the way he did.
R.I.P. 30 years of Mama Hozier’s artwork. 🥺🖤
Hozier sipping a drink and reading a book under the water is the mood for 2019
cackling over here after 2020
@@GCiambrone shhhhhh shhhhhh it’s fiiiiine
"We have a responsibility to be a witness." Absolutely grabbed my heart. Yes.
I was waiting for this material so hard (didn't even know it would be released). Haunted house, this wet Jesus hair, collab with the mom. Swooooooon.
Amen!
I adore the ebb and flow of optimism and nihilism in his work.. it's kind of like mood swings personified.
"I have responsibility to be a witness. Sometimes you can't look away. You have to be a witness."
Ms. Hozier-Byrne makes extremely beautiful things, paintings AND sons.
30 years of her art lost in one moment. As a painter, my heart sank. This album cover is a beauty
Remember kids, always have a reference photo
You can tell where he gets his utter compassion and humanity from, his mother
Can we all thank this beautiful, talented, kind woman who gave birth to our incredible forest god? She's our queen
His mom is so proud of him!
Why wouldn't she be! Just look at him💟💓
"It kind of just looks at the great bonfire of our time, some songs kind of dance around the fire and have a bit of fun and some songs scream into it and some are in the center of it" I've never found an artist that gets me the way hozier does, brilliant
He was under water for real! such dedication! No wonder his music is divine!
Andrew, your mom did a beautiful job with the album art. I actually thought it was a photograph. So truly beautiful.
I adore his mom
The fact that her reaction to him saying that he almost drowned at one point is laughing? Priceless. Absolutely priceless.
Raine is such a beautiful soul. Honestly I have so much respect for her. It breaks my heart that her art was destroyed. She is such a delight and I can definitely where Andrew gets his disposition and advocacy from. Amazing.
"i won't corroborate that. i am a panderer- absolute peddler of muck" "that's not true" "Proud Peddler."
Like mother like son, amazing talent!! 💖💖
1:14 that 'aem' runs deep in the family
Hozier out here, reminding me to stay hydrated as the world ends. What a champ.
I love the way he laughs when he talks about being under the water too long and his mom goes “you were seeing stars?” And he goes “no you just go dark!”
This is just amazing. I'm so glad both artists (as well as everyone involved with this) are getting the recognition and appreciation they deserve. Hozier, his mother, and their whole team work tremendously to produce wonderful pieces of art.
Hozier often seems so grim, it's sweet to see him funny, and laughing. I feel so awful for his mother, and the other artists that lost their work :O
LOL. I suddenly see where Hozier gets some of his dark humor from... ;) His mom is lovely and SO talented.
yes pop off funky bog man
The attention to detail🤯 I didn’t even realize some of them.
Hozier's music and heart makes my crops flourish, my harvests bountiful, my lakes clean and my forests watered
they seem so proud of each other. it’s very sweet.
Living and growing up with such talanted parents with a creative and artistic atmosphere must be such a havenly bliss
Oh yes, this is a great video. Raine seems like an absolutely lovely woman, it's clear that Andrew was raised with good morals and I loved to "meet" her after all these years of looking at his album art and hear about what she keeps in mind while painting. It was such a pleasure to look at the art in greater detail too, it's impossible to see those little details in the little Spotify image! And as always Andrew is definitely the cutest and eloquent human being alive!!
no wonder hozier is such a great artist, his mom is amazing.
Mermaid king.
Merman! I feel like Derek from Zoolander 😁
I love his wild hair but please... someone teach this man how to take care of curly hair
Lanie Clark he looks good like this imo
Hozier and his mother are absolutely amazing❤❤❤
I have the heart attack everytime he smiles. help
The album tomorrow is going to be so good!!!!
Our woodland elven king 🌿🌱🍃
slash sea god haha
I'm so glad u showed us the details of Ur album cover , and your Mom Raine is so talented , I love drawing and painting portraits too ♥
Absolutely loved everything about this. The mother son bond of affection, and professionalism. Another pro artist saying that it IS a job and important work to be done All the aesthetics are...wow. The lurch in my heart for Raines studio, with 30 years of work poof,gone. I love the intellectual and emotionally charged lyrical stories he tells. I would LOVE to sit at tea with Raine for an afternoon!! such richly souled folk, sigh.
They REALLY DID IT FOR THE AESTHETIC
*i love it*
5:21 "... just went dark. Like 'oh better stand up." Only he could be so casual about almost drowning.
and burning
Well he is 6'6, all he has to do is stand up 😂
Mama Hozier is a really interesting and inspirational person, just as her son.
As an artist myself a fire in my studio is one of my biggest fears. I can't imagine how much it must hurt to lose all your work over night.
He is so sweet and nice to his mom! So cute.
You and your mom are so cute!
Raine may have lost all her art in one night, but she still has Andrew, which might be her greatest creation with all the talent he has :)
I am so suprised not only by the fact that the cover is a painting (I thought it was hazy because of underwater photoshooting distortions), but because of the fact that Hozier's own mother made it! Truly an artistic family...
I listen to his mom and I immediately understand why he is so amazing.
"Irish have a tremendous disrespect for all things"...I connect to that lol
So nice to "meet" Hozier's mom. So sad to hear she lost 30 years of work in a flash... but such a great restart!
The meaning behind the album art is so beautiful. The way that they tie in all of these themes with not only the art but the music is absolutely stunning. I am honoured to be able to live in this era when Hozier is living.
He's so lucky to be able to have these sorts of conversations with his mum.
I'm so hype for this album. Its already so badass and it hasn't even dropped yet. It will be an experience. Also the fact that his parents are so involved in his creative process is so endearing.
The way Hozier described the song Wasteland baby reminds me of a short story called Salt Slow, by Julia Armfield. It’s about a couple trying to survive, adrift on an endless sea that has consumed the world.
Got my preorder today, album is AMAZING!!!!! Totally worth the long wait, can't wait to see you at the Opry!!!!
One of my favorite things is listening to people, especially people with their own ideologies and philosophies. I love that his mom is so involved too. It’s refreshing
The fact that the cover is a painting is absolutely incredible
I have a new favorite contemporary painter.
Tommy MacArthur Agreed
Raine is exceptionally skilled! It was a delight to hear her reasonings and perspectives on the art itself and the album
