While Take Me To Church and From Eden have some decisively religious connotations, Hozier is a self proclaimed atheist. He told The Telegraph: From Eden is spoken from the Devils point of view. I always loved in blues music how the Devil can be a character who walks and talks. So awful is your state that it seems to be a presence around you. I dont really spend time thinking about the nature of God but Im interested in what people say about God, how it is used to control people and change policies in the physical realm.
I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
