At a live show in Paris earlier this month, Bray crooner Hozier was surprised by a 20 member choir, (sneaked into the audience by Virgin Radio) that joined him for the chorus of ‘Take Me To Church’.
Fair play in fairness.
A stunning music video (ideally viewed full screen and with the sound up) for Nils Frahm’s ‘Re’ by 23 year old animator Balázs Simon who sez of it:
Listening to ‘Re’ planted a story and a world in my head, so I decided to create a music video for it.
All together now:
No privatisation.
Irish water, Irish nation,
No privatisation
Ahhhhhh, shtop.

Here, Water Meter Man, stop acting like a mole,
Come up and talk to us and stop hiding
Deep inside your hole.

[Portland, Oregon] First solo work from Cork-based John Blek well worth a listen. Also check out his contemporary country and Irish melancholy work with The Rats (my bro’s the drummer).
