Hozier is an Irish solo singer and songwriter who marked his debut in 2013 with his song called "Take Me To The Church". He had the slightest idea of how much would he be loved by the people who crave more and make him an international star.
Released in 2014 as part of his album "Hozier", Cherry Wine is filled with emotions that arise out of an abusive relationship. This song is from the perspective of a man who has been abused by a woman, again and again. And yet, he is too innocent to understand this emotional and physical abuse. His voice is soulful and the melody is acoustic with minimal instrumental. The listeners get mesmerized by the melodic string and hearing it brings them peace, exactly how he has made peace with the woman abusing him. The word "cheery wine" is a depiction of blood and pain, but to him, it is sweet. It is the innocence of the man that makes the song beautiful and heartbreaking.
"Cheery Wine is a tour of an abusive relationship with a new modern perspective."
Musically, the song is simple and sweet. The melody perfectly complements the gloomy, haunting lyrics and the theme of the song. A somber atmosphere has been created by the instrumental play. Hozier's vocals are filled with high and raw emotions. Knowing people who have experienced similar situations, I can agree that the perspective is completely honest.
'Cheery Wine' by Hozier is a very emotionally painful song that touches the deepest chords of the heart. With a beautiful voice and somber vocals, the artist has blended the art of storytelling and captivating melodies, making it a standout track. The link to the song has been embedded below.
