We’re pretty impressed too.
Hozier did such a good job of his most famous hit to date, Take Me To Church, that it’s hard to think there’ll ever be a better version than the original, but it’s always interesting to hear other talented artists put their own stamp on it.
American singer and actress Demi Lovato paid the Wicklow native the ultimate compliment by covering the song while on BBC Radio One’s Live Lounge this week and the man himself was well impressed.
Hey! Huge thank you to @ddlovato for doing this gorgeous cover of TMTC in the #LiveLounge today. Very Flattered. https://t.co/YbniLhsM58

Like all good covers, it takes what’s good about the original while providing a fresh angle on it at the same time; if it’s good enough for Hozier, it’s good enough for us.
