“Take Me to Church” is one of the great pop songs of our time. The anthemic blues-gospel track tugs expertly at strings of devotion and disillusionment.

Yet, Hozier’s voice may be the song’s greatest weapon. Plenty of songs on Andrew Hozier-Byrne’s 2014 debut translated Irish folk tropes into fresh, palatable chart music. But “Take Me to Church” alone had the gripping drama and propulsive anthemicism to make Hozier a bona fide folk star.
