Hozier's music is either:

--soft and slow and comforting, like a musical hug/cuddle, the type I'd probably cry to, something I've listened to when I'm on the edge of anxiety-related panic, warm

or:

--fierce and loud and emotional, roaring in your ears, makes your heart pick up, makes you feel something if you haven't in days, hot and fiery in your chest

Both types are filling; that's weird to say in a music sense, but it's like I'm hungry but I don't know it until I listen to his music and then  it's like "wow I  n e e d  this"

His songwriting is really exquisite and I love the images I get from the lyrics. And then his guitar melodies and riffs are always really fresh and new and unlike anything I've heard. The talent is overwhelming. +He puts so much effort and soul into his music and I love it. I aspire to be that amazing of a songwriter
