Results for: Too Sweet

Hozier has become the first Irish act to top the US Billboard Singles chart since Sinéad O’Connor with his song ‘Too Sweet.’ The song reached number one on the Billboard 100, making him only the fourth Irish artist ever to reach the summit of the chart. O’Connor spent four weeks at number one in 1990 with her iconic single ‘Nothing Compares 2 U.’ The only other Irish acts to pull off the feat are U2, with ‘I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For’ and ‘With Or Without You,’ and Gilbert O’Sullivan with ‘Alone Again (Naturally).’

Ten years after the success of ‘Take Me To Church,’ Hozier has achieved another milestone with the release of ‘Too Sweet.’ The song has ascended to the top spot on the Hot 100 chart, making it only the fifth No. 1 from an Irish artist and the first since Sinéad O’Connor’s ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’ in 1990. Despite being released as part of an EP for tracks that didn’t make the album’s final cut, ‘Too Sweet’ has captured the attention of listeners and critics alike.
