Viewers were in tears last night after watching Hozier perform on The Late Late Show.
The global superstar appeared on the show to launch an emergency on-air appeal for the ISPCC, who are experiencing an upsurge in calls to Childline.
The singer promoted a new initiative between ISPCC and RTÉ 2FM, where top Irish artists are performing across 2FM every night for a fortnight to raise funds.
During his appearance on the show, the Bray native sang his hit songs Take Me To Church and Shrike.
Hozier then performed a stunning version of The Parting Glass, which was dedicated to all the people who have lost their lives to COVID-19, including the health worker who died yesterday.
After watching his incredible performance, many took to Twitter to praise the hit musician.
Love @Hozier and must admit this made me shed a tear ???? the first healthcare worker in Ireland to die is a nurse and reality hits ! RIP to her and prayers for her family #StayHomeSaveLives https://t.co/rqQVQhu5mD

If you can get through this without weeping well you’re potentially granite. Well done @Hozier just stunning.
