poor countries are not ‘underdeveloped’, they are over EXPLOITED, our resources UPHOLD the economies of so-called ‘developed’ countries — you would be nothing without the sacrifices you forced us and our people to make.

tweet from psychopompmike: the fact that Hozier's least streamed song is Jackboot Jump is telling and the TikTok girlies aren't ready for that conversation tbh. inset tweet from same user: I wanna say something controversial yet so brave...

🙃 Regular reminder that while Hozier has amazing love songs, he is ALSO very outspoken about his leftist politics, specifically anti-fascism, anti-racism, reproductive rights, Palestinian rights and more.

Take Me To Church and Foreigner’s God are scathing critiques of organized religion, specifically the Catholic Church and the colonization of Ireland.

Moment’s Silence is about oral sex but it’s ALSO about how that specific sexual act is often distorted to a show of power rather than that of love.

Nina Cried Power is an homage to various (mostly Black) civil rights activists from the US and Ireland and a call to follow their path.

Be criticizes anti-migrant policies and Trump and his ilk.

Jackboot Jump is about the global wave of fascism and about protest and resistance.

Swan Upon Leda is about reproductive rights and the violent colonial oppression of Ireland and Palestine.

Eat Your Young is about the ruinous way the 1%/capitalism and arms dealers prioritize short-term profit over everything else to the detriment of the youth/99%

Butchered Tongue is about Irish and other indigenous languages being suppressed and erased by imperial powers.

If any of the above surprised you, please, please delve deeper into Hozier’s music, you’re missing such an important part of his work.

Image 1/5: An illustration of Crowley & Aziraphale from the show Good Omens. Aziraphale is contentedly sitting on a tufted chair: one leg crossed, reading a book, scotch in hand. Crowley looms, looking down at him with INTENT behind his eyes. He’s made quite a dent in his scotch. Aziraphale is completely oblivious.

Caption: I have a feeling that beneath the little halo on your noble head (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)
Image 2/5: Crowley leans over Aziraphale, his knee on the chair as he sets his scotch aside. Aziraphale looks up and notices him for the first time as he idly turns a page.

Caption: There lies a thought or two the devil might be interested to know (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)
Image 3/5: Crowley is fully straddling Aziraphale in his chair now, calmly taking off his reading glasses and setting aside his book for him. Aziraphale looks up at Crowley, curious, no longer distracted. He goes to set his drink down.

Caption: You’re like the finish of a novel that I’ll finally have to take to bed (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)
Image 4/5: Crowley leans in to cup Aziraphale’s face, his thumb between his lips. Aziraphale is flustered, blushed. The scotch is dropped to the floor and long forgotten as he tries to figure out where to put his hands.

Caption: You Fascinate Me (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)
Image 5/5: IN FOR THE KILL. Crowley leans in to kiss Aziraphale, one hand on his cheek while the other grips the back of his neck. Aziraphale sits up, leans forward, and gives himself permission to enjoy this. His hands are still tentative, but he’ll figure it out soon enough.

Caption: …So. (lyrics from You Fascinate Me So by Blossom Dearie)

You Fascinate Me So, Blossom Dearie

AU where Mr. D claiming to be Percy’s dad accidentally counts as Claiming according to Greek god law or whatever and now all the other gods legitimacy believe Percy is his son, but if Mr. D corrects it, he has to explain to Zeus why he pretended he was Percy’s dad so now he’s like “YEP ol’ Perry Johansson is MY child wowie just look at the little fry, you have your mother’s eyes. Please stop standing next to water or you will blow my cover”

Meanwhile Poseidon is just standing off to the side like “how on earth did I dodge THAT bullet”

Tumblr: fae king hozier haha bog man who writes songs about nature

Hozier:

a screenshot of what hozier said the song eat your young is about. it says “I don’t know how intentional the reference to Jonathan Swift was in this. That essay [Swift’s 1729 satirical essay A Modest Proposal in which he suggests the Irish poor sell their children as food] is such a cultural landmark that it’s just hanging in the air. I was more reflecting on what I felt now in this spirit of the times of perpetual short-term gain and a long-term blindness. The increasing levels of precarious living, poverty, job insecurity, rental crisis, property crisis, climate crisis, and a generation that’s inheriting all of that and one generation that’s enjoyed the spoils of it. The lyrics are direct, but the voice is playful. There’s this unreliable narrator who relishes in this thing which was fun to write.”
a screenshot of what hozier said the song butchered tongue is about. it says “This reflects upon what is lost when languages are lost off the face of the earth. I’ve been lucky enough to travel the world for the last 10 years, going into places that had either Native American or Australian place names—some of the places I mention in the song—and asking people what the place name means and being surprised that no one is able to tell you. The song nods to some of the actions, some of the processes that are behind the loss of culture, the loss of language. There is a legacy of terrible violence, but we have to acknowledge not just that, but also bear witness to this generosity and welcomeness that I experience in those places.”
