What does listening to Hozier feel like? Well, I doubt that I will be able incapsulate it in a way which accurately makes whoever is reading this feel something.
Such poetry, myth, history, and art are interwoven in his voice and lyrics.
What are words but creation of man? A creation of man so wonderful and cruel. A creation by which evokes such splendid passion or drowning melancholy. Hozier, balances the light and dark so beautifully resembling a Greek myth.
When I listen to Hozier, I visualize the first blushes of spring, dewy moss in a forest with tall trees, the strong addicting petrichor in the dawn, seaside cottage, first morning cup of tea with silky milk and sugar cubes, ripe ruby colored pomegranates awaiting to be eaten by Persephone, the turbulent agitated waves of the biting cold ocean, chilly zephyr whispering secrets into my ear, apples with pure honey, a large white bathtub sitting alone in a large bare room with walls the color of buttercream and decorated with gold panels dressing the walls with vestments, Hades dark robes covering Persephone’s glittering sheer periwinkle tunic, and with a gentle kiss, black cherries, the two opposing forces of nature interwined, time stopped, white orchids, dying embers of a fire, aged booked, sounds of breaking waves on the coastline, crunchy leaves, knit sweaters, crescent moon, Orion in the sky, Moscato rosé wine bringing warmth contrasting the gelid numbness on pink fingertips, long hair dancing with the Aura, and that is just a glimpse of what Hozier’s music makes me visualize.
