First 😍

Hillary

Btw I got tickets to see Hozier in September and I am ecstatic 🤩

Butchered Tongue is about the Irish language and how the English literally outlawed the Irish people's ability to speak it or even teach it to their kids. So all that remains is a "butchered tongue," remnants of what people can remember and what they're still rediscovering.

Emily O

So glad you guys loved to someone from a warm climate, that might be my fav! In butchered tongue he’s talking about the native Irish culture and language being violently removed by the British colonizers. The Irish language was almost lost due to a campaign of physical and economic violence perpetrated by the British crown.

Meg Rhoads

Can confirm: He sounds like that live. I can't recommend seeing him enough. Truly the best concert I've been to, and I couldn't even see since I'm so short.

Karlina

Okay so butchered tongue is amazingly beautiful and he is talking about what Irish people experienced at the hands of Britain at a time where they were having their culture and language stripped from them. Living for these reactions and y’all falling in love with this mythical man.

Holleylamps

He extended the album - Unreal Unearthed : Unaired. 6 more songs!

Cynthia Garcia

After you finish the album, you NEED to do the EPs he released to add to the album!

Riclyn Sherman

READY for part 4! Those last two songs are amazing. K got it - psychopomps the farrier of the dead. It’s based on the level of hell that is “fraud” .. I think the song itself is about duality of life. How there is no light without darkness - All living things die, but we can still see how their life shines.

Mary (onlyeverthus)

I haven't heard this album (Hozier is one I've had a hard time getting into), but Kaniyia talking about how hymns were important to enslaved people made me look up the song, because I know Hozier is Irish, and Ireland has a very, very troubled history, and this is from the Wiki page for the album: "The track 'Butchered Tongue' refers to attempts by the British administration to destroy the Irish language through colonialism." Which is why I would bet Hozier puts in a lot of lyrics in Irish, because that and the Scots language are two languages that have been suppressed and are probably close to being "dead" languages (like Latin), in that they're not commonly spoken anymore. It's nice to see people, especially younger ones, making efforts to keep that from happening. The band Snow Patrol is also Irish, and a lot of their newer songs also have a bit of Irish pride vibes to them.

Ashley

You guys absolutely need to do the extended version of the album after this!!

Ashley

Also in abstract (psychopomp) the animal is in fact dying not being saved 😅 a psychopomp is what guides spirits to the afterlife in mythology, so the “person” he refers to is more so putting it out of its misery

Taylor G.

I’m ready for the reaction to his first two albums! Those are even better to me!

Kay K

He doesn't sound like that live. He sounds better. He is amazing live. Feral, even. Hands in his pockets or on the guitar and just pouring all his feelings. Just...breathtaking. Yes. Go to his concert. It's a live changing experience.

Mary Beth S.

Yall the way I whispered to myself in the darkness of my room “K gets it” Kaniyia you are SO emotionally intelligent, I love watching you react to the “deep” songs

Mary Beth S.

MMMF!!! Can’t even WAIT for part 4😭🤍

Nicole Caporino

I hope you guys are doing the unending too because you GOT to hear July and wildflowers and barley

Marissa Franco

Please check out Abstract live! And All things End! He’s amazing live.

Abbie Holder

y’all would probably have fun with his live little impromptu warm up of “the humours of whiskey” - it’s an old irish folk song, less than a minute, but his technicality is just so effortless 😭

Nina Alves

Can’t wait for part 4 and everything that comes after that!! 💖

Abs

Pleeeeeeease review his debut album!!

Kathryn

Hozier has shared a lot of the specific inspirations for this album and I feel like y’all would find it really interesting because you’re almost spot on with how you’ve interpreted it! Can’t wait for the last part and I really hope you do more Hozier videos in the future because he’s truly so talented!

avenraine

I’d like to clarify Butchered Tongue because I actually wrote a paper about colonialingualism and how languages are fragmented through colonization as the first act of violence, specifically through an analysis of contemporary cultural media like Brian Friel’s “Translations” and Hozier’s “Unreal Unearth: Unending.” Hozier is mourning his language — Irish Gaeilge will never again be what it was, and all that remains of it is largely lost on those who should have inherited that culture and language. the pitch cap is a form of torture used against the Irish during early uprisings that was “perfected” by an English general so people could survive it — but they were permanently disabled and were scalped in the process. the Irish were the first to experience chattel slavery, particularly on the basis of “race,” and Hozier laments the losses that came of that treatment in this album. while many compare the narrative to Dante’s Divine Comedy, what Hozier is actually narrating is a love letter to the lost history of the Irish and the brutality that created the Irish Diaspora and the widespread loss of language and heritage — which is also why he uses extensive allusions to Greek myths. he’s a brilliant and well-educated man, and this album is a culmination of a lifetime of lived and learned Irish history — a return to the mission of the Celtic Twilight, one could say. if you want more Irish artist recs, Flogging Molly and Kneecap are AMAZING groups who represent this history!!

Nikki

I can’t listen to To Someone From a Warm Climate without crying

Marissa Batey

I love Anything But. I feel like you get to see Hozier’s real Irish sarcasm come to life. A seemingly cheery, upbeat song with lyrics that have a double meaning. Lines like “if I was a stampede you wouldn’t get a kick”, “if I was a riptide I wouldn’t take you out”, “if I had his job you would live forever” all sound sweet and maybe even romantic on the surface, but he’s really saying “I would avoid you at all costs in every possible scenario” lmao

R Curran

Abstract is about how a person gives kindness to a dying animal and helps them into the afterlife. The kindness this person shown made him have love for this person. I know you had a difficult time recently with a similar experience, this song hits hard and is quite deep around this experience. Hope you are all doing well.

Allison Fuller

Late to this but in "Butchered Tongue" when he sings "as a young man blessed to pass so many road signs..." it's a reference to literal road signs in Ireland which now have all the names in both English and Irish. As many others have said in the comments the song is about Irish language being nearly wiped out by the British but it's an official language in Ireland now so as you pass through the country you get to see the language "still singing here above the ground."

Jade Baker

You guys gotta listen to Unending as well! I feel like you’d really enjoy Hymn to Virgil, as well as Wildflower and Barley. Hopefully you guys do soon! He has never missed with anything he’s come out with 😭
