"My life was a storm since I was born, how could I fear any hurricane?" This line is amazing knowing the context. Paolo and Francesca were two lovers who were killed by Gianciotto, Paolo's brother but also Francesca's husband, when he found out they had a relationship. In the Divine Comedy, Dante puts both of them in the second circle of Hell, Lust. Their punishment is to be eternally buffeted about by a hurricane so strong that tears their bodies apart-- which is a metaphor to represent how they let themselves be ruled by their lust without controlling it.
"Love, which pardons no one loved from loving in return, seized me for his beauty so strongly that, as you see, it still does not abandon me." - Francesca, in hell, met by Dante.
@@Jaqvander I haven't read Dante but from my take on the quote it seems she was in a relationship prior to her true love and the quote is saying that even though she was loved by someone, love doesn't care about that sometimes and she ended up falling in love with someone else while in a relationship and she loved him so truthfully that even in hell she loves him
wait, does he mean that their love is too great for heaven to hold or that the love is more... idk, toxic/dirty, that it's not fit for a pure place like heaven?
@@rj-hg1kq i think it's both!! hozier has often written songs about loving another person being more holy/righteous than any religion (especially seen in take me to church) so i think it could go both ways :)
@rj i think the context is more fitting on this, when you look at the divine comedy and the story of Francesca and Paolo, since they were put in the second circle of hell, lust, for their absurd relationship
Paolo and Francesca were lovers in real life and in Dante’s Divine Comedy, condemned to hell for their lust. In hell they are still together and (because they are in hell) incapable of remorse for their sin, therefore their love becomes eternal because of their damnation
every time i decide which hozier lyric i want to get tattooed...he drops something even more mindblowing. at this point i'm just going turn myself into a billboard for his discography 😭
I was actually born in a blizzard, so the line "My life was a storm since I was born; how could I fear any hurricane," hits me. My life has never been stable, but whenever there are songs or stories that have lines like this I remind myself that I can be strong. My "Francesca" has been the eye of my hurricane for four years now and she makes every uphill battle, every whirlwind, every circle of hell worth it. One minute with her makes everything worth it.
He certainly knows who to quote from. Hozier is great, and just like Dante was writing fanfic based on his favourite Roman and quoting Virgil willy nilly, Hozier's doing the same thing. The line is straight out of Dante.
Let’s talk about Francesca! Francesca da Rimini or Francesca da Polenta was a medieval noblewoman of Ravenna. She fell in love with Paolo, the younger brother of her old and deformed husband Giovanni, who she had married as part of a political strategy only. Enraged at their betrayal, Giovanni slew both Paolo and Francesca where they laid. In Inferno, Dante and Virgil meet Francesca and her lover Paolo in the second circle of hell, reserved for the lustful. I believe that this song could be from the point of view of either Francesca or Paolo, saying that it was all worth it, that they would literally go through hell again If they could be together one more time. Very Hozier of them 🥺 I am absolutely in love with it! What do you all think about it? 🤎
@@goro_majima98 in his writing, it’s clear that he’s sorry for them. He doesn’t judge them and doesn’t give them such a harsh punishment since they are still together.
For me, poetically, thats Paolo's point of view. In the Comedy, Dante only talks to Francesca. Maybe, only now by Hoozier, we hear about what surpasses Paolo's. Dante did the same with this two lovers, noticing them.
@@goro_majima98It was a kind of religious fanfiction, his interpretation. He felt sorry for them and wept for them, whereas the further into Hell he descended the more he changed as a person as well, no longer pitying anyone damned to be there
Oh boy my favorite part of Hozier, do I want to be the singer or the muse. He has such a way of explaining love in ways no one else can. Such power in the phrase "Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I" August 18th can't come fast enough
My best friend died six weeks ago. I've been too consumed by my grief to listen to any music, but by god this song sums up my emotions so well. I would wander through every single circle of hell, climb every mountain and swim every ocean and experience every bit of agony I've ever been through all over again, two times over if I could just hold her for one more minute. I will look for her in this life, the next, and every life my soul will live, probably including past ones. This song, paired with Unknown, have resonated with me so deeply and helped me realize that I'm not as alone as I feel I am. Maybe this was a bit trauma-dumpy, but I just wanted to share this true testament to how deeply soul-healing Hozier's music is. I don't know who this man sold his soul to to make this kind of life-altering music, but it must've been a worthwhile transaction.
Im sorry for your lost, im glad this songs made you feel something positive again, and I know grief is hard and long but it feels lighter with time and love. I wish you very happy things from now on❤️
As I've been severely lacking in my reading of Irish poetry, but absolutely love the Divine Comedy, being able to actually appreciate all of Hozier's literary references with this album is so incredibly fun. Amazing songs, and I feel like I can experience them on an even deeper level now
"My life was a storm since i was born how can i fear any hurricane... heaven is not fit to house a love like you and i ".... this gives me shivers , with hozier you can really feel the lyrics, the music, its really well composed as a whole thing but even if you separate this elements it just keeps Being pure art by itself, when you get to appreciate this things in live its really Worth it.
Lyrics for those of us that like to be able to read in their own time: Do you think I'd give up. That this might've shook the love from me, or that I was on the brink. How could you think, darling I'd scare so easily? Now that it's done, There's not one thing that I would change. My life was a storm Since I was born. How could I fear any hurricane? If someone asked me at the end, I'd tell them put me back in it. Darling, I would do it again. If I could hold you for a minute, Darling, I'd go through it again. I would still be surprised I could find you, darling in any life. If I could hold you for a minute, Darling, I would do it again. For all that was said Of where we'd end up at the end of it. When the heart would cease ours never knew peace. What good would it be on the far side of things? It was too soon When that part of you was ripped away. A grip taking hold like a cancer that grows, Each part of your body that it takes. Though I know my heart would break, I'd tell them put me back in it. Darling, I would do it again. If I could hold you for a minute, Darling, I'd go through it again. I would still be surprised I could find you, darling in any life. If I could hold you for a minute, Darling, I would do it again. I would not change it each time. Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I. I would not change it each time. Heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I. I would not change it each time. Heaven is not fit to house a love. Like you and I.
Somehow I missed the notification....just listened and I'm bawling like a baby....I've seen him 6 times now, I was really waffling about seeing him this tour but this song convinced me, I just dropped $200+ for a GA ticket to Chicago, i should have trusted my gut and got tickets when they dropped lmao
God i cant explain what this song makes me feel...... Maybe a longing about love like that... i love it so much. As usual Hozier has given us a masterpiece.
Getting real "Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine" energy from this. Highest compliment. Every time the song ends, I tell them put me back in it
Am I the only one who lost their Hozier loving soul mate? This song is speaking to me from the other side, hitting my core, my existence like only Hozier can do. Sad and happy moments all wrapped into one. Damn. ❤
Although it seems this song is about losing a girlfriend/ spouse. The lyrics resonate with me so much as I sit next to my dad in a hospice, who’s on his last legs because of cancer. When he passes he can join my mother in heaven. They can be with each other. And as the song speaks of, I wouldn’t change a thing of my childhood up until now, no matter how painful. If I could relive being with my parents, knowing I’d lose them again, I would. Thankyou Hozier, for producing such a beautiful song ❤
Love to you, Ella. I am fighting to hear the song the exact same way as you for almost the same reasons. I truly wish I could give you some soup and a hug.
I am so so sorry. I lost my dad to cancer as a young child and this song really resonantes. grief and the unknown is scary. can I keep y’all in my prayers?
The first time I heard this song, before I was familiar with the context, I assumed it was about the end of a life together as the narrator loses their love to some from of dementia-- seeing the person they love slowly be ripped away from piece by piece but caring for them anyway and believing it was all worth it. And I still love that interpretation.
I’m literally weeping!!! What can’t Hozier do!!!! Literally the rock 80’s influence is so strong!! I can’t wait for the album to come out!!! I’m died, decreased, buried 6 feet in the ground already! I’m gonna be in heaven when august comes around
Andrew, again you've managed to steal my breath while my heart is racing. Only you can make sonic poetry like this. I love your wild spirit. Cannot wait to hear the full album and see you live again!!
my god...iam speachless. thank you hozier. i was in such a depressive time of my life. but you, Hozier, were able to give hope to this Francesca with your song. Thank you so much.❤
I felt that as soon as I listened to it, too. A variety of people will love the sound and words, especially the chorus. I was in a sports-type restaurant and guess what came on? I was so happy!
the fact the instruments are so loud over the when the "i would not change it each time heaven can not hold a love like you and i" is SO cool because it makes it feel like it can't be held on to because it's so big so loud aaaa
The beginning of the song starts so softly and sweetly, progresses into somewhat of a headbanger, then ends softly again but with a more tragic sad feeling (for obvious reasons.) I'm constantly in awe of what Hozier and his team create, their work deserves more love 💖
Today was my last day in high-school, I know this song is about something completely different but the beginning of the chorus really hit hard today, thank you Hozier❤
I’m on my seventh listen and it’s not even been out for an hour yet. This is truly one of the best songs I’ve ever heard, already taking its place as my favourite song of Hozier and possibly my favourite song of all songs ever to exist
Me too, been a fan since the get go but like, I'm floored....missed the notification somehow but been repeating for about an hour....I've seen him live 6 times but I was waffling on tickets to this tour....just dropped $200+ on a GA ticket for Chicago lmao
Something about the chaos of the ending lines has me coming back so desperately. The rest of the song is perfect, don't get me wrong, but it evokes an almost visceral reaction in me
Oh dear god, this song! Going to get a bit poetic here but what else can I say? How can it make me so moved to tears yet leaving me aching to hear it again? His words are always like a rope around your heart.The ending choral is the ringing of heaven. To be parted like this, and to have know such love would rip your very soul apart. Needing to contine, over and over despite the pain, just to be able to hold on to their memory and never let them go.
In 2010 to very early 2012 I went through some VERY difficult times. Lost it all, had to rebuild. The cavalry was not coming to save me. Fighting back I felt like Edmon Dantes in a way turning into the Count. At the end of it all, I met the love of my life and married. The hell I endured shaped me into the person who was perfect for her, and the hell she endured transformed her into someone perfect for me. Perfectly flawed, yet beautifully perfect together. On Monday I heard this song for the first time, live in Pittsburgh. We went through hell to find love, my wife and I, and I'd do it again. I cannot thank Hozier enough for writing this song.
Hozier really saw Dante's concept of contrapasso, the concept of the souls in the inferno WANTING to stay in the inferno and said: "I am going to make an album that encapsulates the hell all of us choose to live in and find comfort in every time we learn to love someone or something" and I, for one, love him for it. (on another note: if he's making songs based off souls we meet in hell then I cannot wait for the song inspired by Judas Iscariot that's going to kill me, surely)
What's this... This is not a song only.. This is LIFE... CANT STOP LISTENING AFTER BREAKING UP WITH MY LOVE IM SOrry but so happy i found this masterpiece ❤ thank you, thank you ❤
Hey Hozier team! You guys got the Unreal Unearth album release date mixed up in the description! It says April 18 instead of August 18. Thanks for all you do!
I don’t know what the rest of the album is going to sound like but this one is absolutely beautiful and probably the best song I’ve ever heard in my lifetime ❤
I went into a record shop and asked if they had the second Hozier cd four years ago. The clerk said he had none in stock. He also said that it would be impossible for Hozier to surpass the success of the first album. Well, he surpassed the first album and now (I believe) has surpassed the second album, He and his music are aging like fine wine! Bravo!
And should a man never say to me, along the lines, "heaven is not fit to house a love like you and I," let me drift alone into the daylight. In eight minutes time, I'll have passed you all by. Most excellent, Hozier.
This song is a gift to the world made perfectly by a wonderful man.A grove on the outside but a deeper meaning on the the inside,just absolutely gorgeous.
The more I listen to this song I imagine a really passionate aerial straps performance of a couple spinning around, being flung apart and coming back together, and I feel it's such a perfect thing for this song.
This song came out exactly when I needed it. I'd been grieving the loss of an artist that I love so so much and I would like to believe Hozier wrote these lyrics especially for me.
listened to this for the first time yesterday- my soul has been soothed on a level i did not know existed and i feel calm now- this has been a useful discovery :3
Going through one of the worst phases of my life, 2023 hasn’t been a kind year, but I was dealing with it good. It’s only Hozier who could make me cry; his new album fits my situation almost perfectly and I just felt everything at once, couldn’t keep the tears in anymore. God am I glad to exist in the same time as He.
I personally enjoy how a lot of his music talks about a love so intense and all consuming that it either borders on being sacrilegious or entirely is. I have loved and still do love like that, at 18 I met a guy while on the brink of unaliving myself begging whoever was listening to send me a sign or a reason why. He loved me so gently and so patiently despite all of my hurt and trauma that he became my whole world. He some how brought out the best and worst in me, in loving him I finally understood loving someone to damnation. I've never found music that accurately described way I felt until I started listening to Hozier.
it gives me goosebumps the whole album I am so in love with your work I can't stop myself listening to you, and reading those books where your album inspired from and with your experiences to understand and to connect with it and to the emotions you have poured into it, it was a masterpiece.
