Over the weekend, Hozier performed his single, 'Too Sweet', and The Pogues' classic Christmas hit, 'Fairytale Of New York' on Saturday Night Live.
For the first time since 2014, Hozier performed on the SNL stage, where he performed his hit 'Too Sweet', as well as 'Fairytale Of New York'. You can check out footage of these performances below.
Hozier performed The Pogues and Kirsty McColl's track, which has been at the centre of a hotly contested debate in recent years, due to its use of homophobic terms in its lyrics, including the word 'f****t'.
The 'Take Me To Church' hitmaker performed the track with the altered lyrics: “You’re cheap and you’re haggard”. Check out this performance here.

Shane MacGowan passed away in November last year aged 65.
Earlier this month, Shane's widow Victoria Mary Clarke said that her late husband always found his success surrounding the 'Fairytale of New York' to be "amusing".
Victoria also added that Shane MacGowan was not overly "fussed" about Christmas either.
“Shane wasn’t fussed about Christmas at all. Like he always said, ‘It’s Jesus’s birthday’", she said. “He never thought it was about presents or turkeys or any of that stuff. He indulged me because I always insisted on having a tree, and he would think that was cute with the decorations".
“But he wasn’t fussed about presents unless they were things he really wanted. The last Christmas he was here, I got him some albums that he absolutely loved, and he was really excited about them. He wasn’t a materialistic person".
