About I, Carrion (Icarian)

“I, Carrion (Icarian)” is a reimagining of the Greek myth of Icarus as a love song. Hozier has explained that the song imagines Icarus as so in love that he is unaware that he is dying; the speaker in the song does not care whether he falls, as long as his love is with him. The artist said while explaining the song live: "This song has tried to imagine that he was so enamored and so breathless and so ecstatic in the moment that he felt the air rushing by him, that he never knew he died. .
