The track has also topped the charts in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the UK and Ireland.
Hozier joins the likes of Sinead O’Connor, U2 and Gilbert O’Sullivan as the only other artists who’ve achieved the coveted spot on the US song charts.
Sinéad spent four weeks at the top of the charts with Nothing Compares 2 U in April 1990.
U2 had two No 1s in 1987 with I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For and With or Without You.
Gilbert reached the top spot on the charts with Alone Again (Naturally) in July 1972.
