Hozier – Take Me to Church

This is not a Christian song, certainly, but the vibe is occasionally transcendant. It was released as a single in Ireland in 2013 and went to No. 2 on what is left of the pop charts in that country. The tune was not released until this past summer (2014) in the US. I happened to hear it on NPR today. The video was directed by Fugazi drummer Brendan Canty, one of the truly nice guys in the punk biz.
