"SWEET" SUCCESS FOR HOZIER

Hozier's instant new hit, "Too Sweet" (Columbia), alighted at #1 on Spotify's U.S. chart on 4/2, making the Irish singer-songwriter the first rock act to top the chart in 2024.

Over at Apple Music, the cut has soared to a new peak of #4. "Two Sweet" enters the Top 5 on Shazam.

Is a rock song by a seasoned act topping DSPs in 2024 a truly fascinating moment? Or a sign of new listening trends from a generation desperate to hear instruments and power chords?
