i haven''t listened to 'take me to church' a lot over the years bc it was played so often in its initial popularity and i love other songs on the album so much more so it rarely makes it onto any of my playlists. but now i finally have a cassette player again and i'm listening to my tapes again ofc i just listen to albums straight through. and i'm like oh yeah. this song is incredible. like this song really is worth every bit of fame & acclaim. this song launched his mainstream popularity for a reason.
whereas 'would that i' was immediately my fav song on his second album so when its insane viral popularity took off on tiktok in 2022 & we got into the next era of hozier fame i was like hell yeah hell yeah. i love when my favs become fandom favs because then they always get played at the concerts >: )
