Many of you have certainly heard Irish musician Andrew Hozier-Byrne, better known by his stage name Hozier, on the radio. Everyone should listen to his two albums, “Hozier” and “Wasteland Baby,” on which he makes the best use of his platform. Through his songs, Hozier conveys themes about politics, social issues, homophobia, drug misuse, domestic violence, and even human rights. Consider listening to some of his best tunes.
1.”Someone New”
This song has been referred to online as Tinder’s theme tune, which depicts cynical, depressed individuals searching for a connection but only experiencing fleeting pleasures that leave them feeling empty. Not just for teenagers, this is a true reflection of the current generation.
2.”Shrike”
This music will give you shivers, a racing heart, and shortness of breath. Hozier implies that he is “singing like a bird” from the death of a loved one throughout the song by equating himself to a bird that is known to yell or weep.
3.”To Be Alone”
The emotion of being with a woman is so great that even the heroine becomes insignificant, according to this song about the alluring power of a woman. Even though she is not good for him, he is addicted to this lady.
4.”Work Song”
The phrase “No grave can hold my corpse down, I’ll crawl home to her” describes the kind of connection that most of us would like to have. Hozier only thinks about his child to make himself feel better when he is fatigued on the way to work every day.
5.”Cherry Wine”
Every single time I hear this song, I cry. This was an honest representation of the confusing feelings associated with domestic abuse as well as the sick and depraved love the couple had for one another.
