Hozier's Hymn to Virgil

“There’s points where Virgil picks Dante up and carries him over certain places, and puts him on the back of beasts who fly him over ravines and all of this fantastical stuff. He holds this guy when he faints and trembles and weeps,” Hozier said. “Dante the living human in this poem is, like, horrified. And then he arrives at the end of it, and Virgil says, ‘Well, I can go no further.’ And Dante, the writer, knows on some level that Virgil is not a man who deserves to be in hell.”

I think the thing that makes people think Armand is like especially cold and calculating is that hes been alive for so fucking long and he's been through so much that hes always thinking so far ahead of everyone else. And not in a smart way! Hes not a genius. It's just that to him he's seen all these patterns play out so many times before it's like he's watching the end even as he sees the beginning. He's incapable of getting attached to Claudia because to him she's simply already dead. She's just a ghost. He distances himself from her the same way you distance yourself from a comedically obvious redshirt. He can't live in the moment. Hes always already mourning the future.

He acts obsessive and jealous over Louis because he's so convinced that Louis is going to leave him that it's like Louis has already left. He can barely even see him. It's like Armand's future self came back to tell him Louis was going to leave him but failed to mention how or when or why so Armand lives in a constant desperate state of trying to prevent a future he knows is inevitable. Any time there is any hiccup in their relationship Armand thinks "is this it? Is this why he leaves me?" and then goes to insane saw trap lengths to prevent that from happening. He couldn't leave the memory of San Francisco intact because what if THAT was what made Louis leave him and he feels the future loss of Louis so intensely in every moment that he knows he wouldn't survive the real thing so if this really is how it happens he knows he would do anything to change it so he has to change it right here right now its not his fault its destiny its fate its already happened its self defense!

And he's a fucking self fulfilling prophecy! Louis IS going to leave him and it is going to be because of everything he did to try and make sure that that would never happen! Its time travel baby one meets their fate on the road they take to avoid it! If he had just let himself have Louis in the moment and not kept his eyes locked on the future maybe they COULD have been happy together but he's too afraid to look away from the thing he thinks is going to be the end of him so he summons it into his life over and over again.

“Take Me to Church” is essentially about sex, but it’s a tongue-in-cheek attack at organizations that would ... well, it’s about sex and it’s about humanity, and obviously sex and humanity are incredibly tied. Sexuality, and sexual orientation — regardless of orientation — is just natural. An act of sex is one of the most human things. But an organization like the church, say, through its doctrine, would undermine humanity by successfully teaching shame about sexual orientation — that it is sinful, or that it offends God. The song is about asserting yourself and reclaiming your humanity through an act of love. Turning your back on the theoretical thing, something that’s not tangible, and choosing to worship or love something that is tangible and real — something that can be experienced.

- Hozier, in an interview with The Cut

You’re very thoughtful with your music. There is a message behind your music. Why do you think that’s important?

I think there is a time and a place for fun music, for stuff that’s just candy for the ears. And I jam a lot of that, and I make a lot of that, too.

This gremlin has been infesting my brain each week on end since this season of iwtv began. Making a playlist was imminent and I'm quite proud of how it turned out, so I thought I'd share <3
