Thank you very much for posting this! Shrike and To Noise Making (Sing) are my favorite Hozier songs. I was really hoping he would perform them (especially Shrike) in last year's Unreal Unearth Tour, but he didn't. At least I can watch this. Thank you!
I couldn't utter my love when it counted Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now The words hung above But never would form Like a cry at the final Breath that is drawn Remember me, love When I'm reborn As the shrike to your sharp And glorious thorn And I'd no idea on what ground I was founded All of that goodness is goin' with you now Then when I met you, my virtues uncounted All of my goodness is goin' with you now Dragging along Following your form Hung like the pelt Of some prey you had worn Remember me, love When I'm reborn As a shrike to your sharp And glorious thorn I fled to the city with so much discounted Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now I was housed by your warmth Thus transformed By you're grounded and giving And darkening scorn Remember me, love When I'm reborn As a shrike to your sharp And glorious thorn
This song pierces the heart, sure as the bird that he has so poetically utilized in his melody. I love the guitar part too. Definitely one of his best songs from this album. Saw him on his first major tour in 2015, and regret not seeing him on this one. Looking forward to see him play live again.
WOW. I mean, wow. Cursing the tall people in the front haha, but my goodness this was nearly like attending the concert in person. (Again, WOW). Thank-you. WHAT CAMERA OR PHONE IS THIS?? It's amazing. Warmth from Vancouver! x
@@sarahmonkey99 Ok yes a $2,500 Camera should do it! ;) Haha, no but it's astounding. And god he left his heart out there in the auditorium, my goodness. It's breathtaking this version.
Why cant kids these days just stfu while he's playing? It must be maddening to try to perform with a pack of wild jackasses screaming, then the dude just talking loud as fuck 5 feet from the stage while hes trying to debut a song? I wanna throw dogshit in his face.
