Your support makes all the difference.Hozier has unveiled the new video for "Work Song", and it's predictably lovely.
Using the same cinematic style as seen in "Take Me To Church", the footage shows Hozier performing with his band on stage as the audience pair up for some passionate ballroom dancing.
Backing singers provide additional atmosphere in the church-like surroundings while the steady hand-claps make for a gospel feel.
Theme of love, sin and religion are also continued, with lines such as: "My babe would never fret none/About what my hands and my body done/If the Lord don't forgive me/I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me."
Earlier this month Hozier dropped the video for "Someone New" featuring Game Of Thrones star Natalie Dormer, following her co-star Maisie William’s appearance in the video for "Oceans" by Seafret in February.
"Work Song" is the latest official single from Hozier’s 2014 self-titled debut studio album.
