Hit Song’s Music Video Protests Russia’s Anti-Gay Laws

“Take Me to Church” by Hozier is currently the most played song on Spotify and has been nominated for the Grammy Song of the Year. The music video features a Russian gay couple being chased down and beaten by a mob.

Hozier described his video saying, “The song was always about humanity at its most natural, and how that is undermined ceaselessly by religious [organizations] and those who would have us believe they act in its interests.

“What has been seen growing in Russia is no less than nightmarish, I proposed bringing these themes into the story and [director Brendan Canty] liked the idea.”
