Hozier – Too Sweet (Official Video)

When it comes to Valentine’s Day, we often picture sweet chocolates, but for those who want to savor a deliberately bitter mood, this is the piece I recommend.

Sung by Irish artist Hozier, this track tells the story of a night-owl protagonist who loves whiskey and black coffee, contrasting himself with his healthy, straight-laced lover.

It’s included on the EP “Unheard,” released in March 2024, and also made headlines for becoming the first song by an Irish artist in 34 years to reach No.

1 in the U.S.

His soulful vocals and a groovy bassline set the stage for a bittersweet yet alluring adult romance.

It’s perfect for nights when you want something deeper than just sweetness, or for relaxing moments with a drink in hand.
