I was expecting this to be better given by how good TMTC and From Eden are, but it's still cute.

GO IRISH: Sure, Hozier got a lift from his SNL performance on 10/11, but that exposure wasn’t nearly as impactful as the stunning Beats commercial featuring “Take Me to Church” that premiered on Sunday during NFL game telecasts. Here’s how we know that: In terms of album sales, Sunday/Monday combined was +54% over Friday/Saturday. As for the single, the Sunday/Monday combo nearly tripled in sales over Friday/Saturday with a +193%. In essence, Columbia, with seemingly infinite patience, has pulled off a classic example of “Don’t fire until you see the whites of their eyes.” Of course, the strategy only worked because the record is so special. Well done all around. (10/21a)

Hozier scores the week's lone new top 10 on the Hot 100, as "Take Me to Church" rockets 33-9. It adds the top Digital Gainer award for a second week, powering 13-2 on Digital Songs with a 107 percent surge to 132,000. Multiple metrics push the song forward, as it also darts 22-10 on On-Demand Songs (2.3 million, up 43 percent) and 46-17 on Streaming Songs (4.2 million, up 62 percent). Its airplay is building, too, as it nears Radio Songs with a 23 percent lift to 21 million.

Helping spur the following of "Church": it's featured in a new Beats by Dre commercial (which highlights LeBron James' return to the Cleveland Cavaliers). Plus, in recent days Shazam blasted all 11 million of its email subscribers about Hozier, this month's #FeaturedByShazam artist. His self-titled debut full-length debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 three weeks ago and has sold 99,000 so far.

"People have reacted to this song, but also went deeper into his music, seeking out more to purchase or stream," says Columbia executive VP/GM Joel Klaiman. "That's a sign that proves what we knew: that this isn't just a hit song. He's a special artist."

Wow this album is so good.
"In the woods somehwere" gives me the feeling I didn't have since Bon Iver's For Emma Forever ago
The feeling that literally makes me want to pack a bag and go live in the forest forever and figure out the meaning of life

Favorites are definitely In the woods somewhere,Take me to church;Sedated,Angel of small death and Run

Best debut of the year along with FKA twigs!
