As bizarre a headline as we have ever written.
Have you ever had a dream, woken up and immediately wished you could see it again?
Not just a normal dream. Something that you know you’ll never get to see, purely because of how bizarre it is.
Well, whatever it is, do not give up just yet.
Blindboy, of Rubberbandits fame, once had a dream where Hozier covered the song ‘Saint Dominic’s Preview’ by Van Morrison.
I also once dreamt that Hozier covered this. It was brilliant. I can't get it out of my head, even though it never happened. https://t.co/FppBxLF5BJ

Hozier caught wind of this (over a year later, it seems), and made Blindboy’s dream come true, literally, by posting a cover of the song on his Instagram story.
Have a look:

And like we said, this is all quite a strange experience, but just listen to how incredible the Bray man sounds.
What a voice.
We would be very interested in seeing Hozier and Blindboy collaborate in some way again. Maybe he’ll appear on his podcast one day, or perhaps they’ll do a song together.
A Hozier cover of ‘Horse Outside’ would go down a treat.
