This Is Huge! Hozier playing "Take Me To Church" with the crowd singing along! Busking in Brighton!

Published 2023-08-05
I just cannot believe we found Hozier busking at Royal Pavilion Gardens during Brighton Pride! More videos to come. In September 2013, when Irish solo artist Andrew Hozier-Byrne released his debut single - a song called ‘Take Me To Church’ - which he had mostly recorded in the attic of his parent’s house in Wicklow (his father a blues musician, his mother an artist), little did he know about the hurricane-strength surge in public interest that the song would spark, carrying him to international stardom.

A full ten years and billions of streams later, Hozier still calls Wicklow home. While his music takes him all over the world, it is Ireland and its people and places, the weather and landscape; where a stream is still something that runs down at the bottom of the garden, that calls him back to where he feels he naturally belongs.

The last decade has brought both public and critical acclaim. Multi-platinum album sales, number one records on both sides of the Atlantic, multiple awards including a Grammy-nomination, film and video game soundtracks and countless sold-out live shows all over the world. But as Hozier prepares to release his third album - ‘Unreal Unearth’ - his passion for his art is undimmed, and his curiosity about our world - and all that is good and bad about it - remains undiminished.

  • Hozier did a snap performance today, before the 'unreal unearth' meet & great event at Residents, an independent record shop in Brighton. Check the other videos of Hozier in our channel. :)

    The way Hozier acts in public makes me think he doesn't actually understand he is famous and is just engulfed in the music. It's amazing to witness
  • @davetommo4739
    This is totally what being a musician is all about.Good guy. No pop star ego rubbish. this rendition humbled me!
  • @ulauca
    I like the way everyone stay in their position, giving Hozier enough space to sing. That would not be the case in my country.
  • @fani5000
    You know a song is a classic when it can be sung by one person and played with an acoustic instrument. What a legend!
  • @letsbereal8653
    Somebody in the crowd was killing it!!!!😂😂😂😂 you go girl!!!
  • @an9828na
    Love how they sang harmonies into it. Makes it more special as it is anything 😍
  • @leongarcia8089
    Loved it when a person in the audience did the harmony for the bridge.
  • @oskit535
    Finally a good singer who cares about his fans
  • @47redtop
    What a lovely man - no special microphones or effects. Just him and his voice. The actual video that went this was utterly heartbreaking, ive never been able to watch it again. Very apt to be here bringing love and joy. A good man ❤
  • @rachelface927
    I’ve seriously never grown tired of this song. And the fact that he’s interacting with random folks on the street and letting them get so close - by far one of my favorite musicians of all time.
  • @CamzMagic
    Love the crowd is singing, especially to beat but his voice just overpowers, unreal!
  • @rgwashere8723
    Somebody in there is singing in harmony with him. Love it.
  • @keys2stone1984
    This is how musicians should be. Taking time with fans in public just to sing a song not in concerts...intimate and appreciative of his fans.
  • @massapin9293
    I spent the entire time looking at the faces of the people in the crowd, some of their smiles when he hits those notes, clearly genuinely impressed.
  • @keiramorley8236
    I was right there yesterday! Was incredible with an emotional meet and greet at a local record shop after. A day I will remember forever x
  • @raymondsykes2954
    It's gotta be such a rewarding and humbling feeling to hear people around you singing your song. Like it's probably one thing to do it on a stage where you have headphones in for the music and all that. Must be so different just in this setting. And it must feel so amazing to hear all those people sing it word for word. Very cool to be able to just do that
  • @EV4RY
    To have your work sung back to you with such enthusiasm and love is a blessing ❤
