Today,
Karen Jonas released a stunning rendition of “A Long December” (Counting Crows) with an accompanying music video. The song and video premiered via American Songwriter, who writes: “reflecting on the past year of canceled tour dates and other plans coming to an end, Karen Jonas was stuck in a strange limbo of hope for a new beginning and what-ifs.”
A note from Karen Jonas:
Like the last chapter of a too-long book, arduous and wordy, December 2020 rolls around. The calendar is finished but with so many canceled plans, I can’t quite call it complete. So I sit, caught between some vague sadness and my Christmas tree, wondering if next year is going to be any different. There are so many what-ifs, so much up in the air.
