Ed Sheeran and Hozier unite their voices in an emotional performance: 10 years of friendship captured on stage – Music

The summer tour of Ed Sheeran It has only just begun and it has already left us great memories that we will never forget. Since his time in Rock In Rio a few weeks ago until his last performance in NetherlandsEd has not disappointed any of his followers.

The ‘Thinking out Loud’ singer coincided with music greats at the festival ‘Pinkpop’, like Sam Smith or James Arthur, and has not missed the opportunity to share the stage with one of the singers of the moment, Hozier. The ‘Too Sweet’ singer welcomed his partner with some nice words: “I want to invite one of the biggest artists on the planet to the stage. An incredible composer and magnificent person. Please welcome Ed Sheeran to the stage.”

Their voices merged to interpret the song ‘Work Song’, a song included on the album ‘Hozier’. This is the only song by the artist that does not take the title from the artist’s own lyrics, but rather the repetitive rhythm led me to think of the typical songs dedicated to a moment of work (work song). In this song, the protagonist is suffering because he has not seen his love and, because of this, he becomes so delirious that he stops eating.

Through the social networks, both were grateful for this beautiful collaboration. Starting with the video that Ed uploaded, in which they are seen preparing the song, we read the following words: “I met Hozier for the first time in 2014, we did a few festivals together and became fast friends. This is the first time we’ve played together on stage and it was so much fun. I’m a big fan, thank you so much for inviting me to sing one of my favorite songs of yours! “You and your fans are amazing.”

“I’ve been asking for this for years! I’m very envious of the people who were at that concert”, “It was incredible to see the two of them on the Pinkpop stage”, “Legendary!! They sang one of my favorite songs and fulfilled all my expectations.” dreams”; That’s how excited some followers were.

For his part, the ‘Take Me To Church’ singer took the opportunity to upload another post from the festival, with special mention to Ed Sheeran: “Yesterday was crazy. Getting to know Ed over the years has been a gift. He is a person who has always shown his support and kindness to the artists around him and is one of those artists who creates a great space for others on his stage and in his works. Thank you so much for joining us, brother, it was a pleasure. You are unique!”.
