Kathleen - The Longest Year (Official Music Video)

[@SoundsLikeKathleen]

“The Longest Year”, song and video out now. I don’t need to list the utter pile of tragedies, injustices, surreal and bizarre events that have been blizzarding hard on all of us these last few years. So many truths, both good and bad, that we as a culture and species have held solid are, in rapid succession, unraveling. And now, I’m sitting on my couch in my apartment by myself - when I’d love to be out for drinks with friends - hiding from an invisible virus that may or may not kill a lot more people than it already has. All of these insanities have so far lead to great change but also great reversion. I don’t know what any of it means, except that it feels like it’s been one endless year. Stay safe out there kiddos 💕 warnerrecords.lnk.to/LongestYear

[@alyssonmilon5626]

Kathleen you’re amazing. I can’t wait to hear more fucking songs. Amazballz. Love you 😘

[@pippystrimos]

You are going to be Big! I'm calling it 😄

[@AWindy94]

This was otherworldly. And so effortless to vibe with.

[@juniorgod321]

Are you the singer of "Connected" from Tetris Effect?

[@wika36]

Youre AMAZING🤩🤩🤩

[@lizzie_bts]

okay. she’s so hecking ethereal.

[@NA-xp2cr]

Have you heard her cover of pure imagination?

[@VideoMagician77]

Kathleen, mark my words you are going to become famous one day. Your incredible voice, instrumental complexity, and lyrical depth all meet at an intersection of sound that produces a musical experience which is truly unique for the listener. I hope that as you develop and grow, that you never compromise the beauty of what you are bringing to the world and that you continually dive deeper and deeper into exploring the complexities of the human experience. God bless you Kathleen, this was a treat.

This is the first time I don’t regret clicking on a ad

[@daniellehoward4583]

Grace & Dogs Yeah same

[@lahoyasrha]

How the hell did you have an ad that led you there?

[@QuantApplicantMattKulis]

funny listening to this pre-covid, this really has been the longest and strangest year many of us have ever experienced

[@andrewl.6446]

I heard this song four years ago and have been following Kathleen ever since. The content of this song really spoke to me, and her powerful voice delivered the message in a way that resonates through my very soul. All of her other music is made equally powerful through her voice and the range the she commands. More people need to be made aware of how good she is!

[@danae515]

When she says "every other day we break another record" always brings me to tears

[@Candysblock]

You had no idea how prophetic this would be, even though the video came out just eight months ago in March. Signed, November 2020

[@juliettec13]

This song gives me both hope and complete nostalgia. The instrumental is incredible and your voice is ethereal. I love young artists that make music with a strong message, so thank you!

[@rat_baby]

I’ve been listening to this on repeat on Spotify for the past few months... it provides an odd sense of healing but is also just so aching and sad ... amazing job.

[@gooeyshuga154]

I recently found out the Pure Imagination one and this Song is soooo serene and beautiful. You deserve more recognition.

[@el_chino778]

what a talent! this video feels like an acid trip.. love the red tape :P

[@marciephoenix]

It’s a year after this was released and this really hits harder now

[@Kurunyow]

oh my god... she's such a fever dream...I feel like I've been looking for this song my entire life.

[@Marlene-jh3pq]

i literally had chills throughout the entire song, this is the most beautiful song ive ever listened to

[@celestemedina91]

Got this song recommended by spotify, and seriously i'm so in love with it. I can't stop listening to it, thank you

[@sunnyshine4964]

Frick, finding this in 2020 really hits different

[@Fiona-rr9ck]

tell me abt it, she didn't even know about corona🥴

[@lexieparrott1700]

this is amazing. one of the greatest songs i’ve ever listened to!! so glad i saw an ad for it on tik tok!! keep going girl!!

[@twilight_potato]

I absolutely love this!! You have such a heavenly voice, and I can't wait to hear what else you put out!!

[@joelmolina9044]

I really love the message. The world is dying and year after year we add more and more instead of helping to make earth cleaner. I sometimes feel like I’m just one person why does it matter if I don’t litter but I still don’t. I have talked wit most of my friends and most of them don’t litter anymore. Atleast aha . I love the touch of surrealism. So glad I looked you up :)

[@lilyallred5414]

Joel Molina it absolutely does matter more than you could ever imagine! your small influence will save the earth for centuries to come. everything we do affects the future of this planet, and if you can do one thing to make change, or inspire one more person to not litter, you are doing so much more than having done nothing in the first place.

[@evzawny]

Literally incredible and so relevant rn. Bravooo 🤩

[@evzawny]

Okay WHATT, I came back to this & it blew tf up!?! I was last here when you were at 13k views and hoping you’d get big soon! I’d say here’s to so many more :,)

[@jubbzingaroundtown]

Two years later and I still feel this.. it's been the longest (and shortest) two years of my life. So much heartache, pain, turmoil and grief I've ever experienced as a mid 20 yo.. nothing is going to ever be how it was and I fear for the worst nowadays.

[@bianca684]

wow. this damn song made me cry. i connect with it so much. this deserved to blow up, this song has such importance to it, such a strong message, amazing lyricism on climate change. a year after its release and it is more prevalent than ever. thank you kathleen

[@katecoe8322]

Between the message and her incredible voice (and the complementary instrumentals) this comes close to the most beautiful, touching video I’ve heard in a rather long life. I just did a search for this after hearing the KZbin ad, which didn’t provide any info. (I loved the setting in the ad, her voice is the primary focus and the simple garden setting is perfect.) I haven’t words to describe-and someone used ‘ethereal’ which would be one-the beauty of her voice. THANK YOU, KATHLEEN 🥰

[@siobhan28483]

Only discovered this song today on Apple Music… Got goosebumps as soon as I heard it, especially at the part where your voice distorts / echoes. Just beautiful. I’ve lost count at how many times I’ve listened to it already!

[@Mijehake]

Absolutely amazing. The production.. the music.. the lyrics.. everything is amazing 😍

[@thehipi]

A gorgeous composition. Thank you @Kathleen

[@megangrueve]

2:16 with earphones in fuckin slaps!! Amazing song!

[@chloekitching]

OMG, this song is 🔥 Love the mellow sound, its so soothing, I love this song!

[@zackkelley6337]

This gives me exponential hope....amazing lyrical content with a haunting quality to your voice that transcends multiple dimensions...the quality here is beyond anything being produced right now...I will keep my ears open and hope you’re coming anywhere close to me in the near future...thank you for a beacon of hope

[@slimplay.design]

I found out about her for her contribution to the game "Tetris Effect" and been searching ever since for her music and unique lyrics for the longest year. I'm glad I'm finally here to enjoy her creativity.💛

[@lalyynn4295]

I saw this on a ad and I don’t regret clicking! 🤩

[@isabelrivera8196]

This is amazing. Now im constantly listening to this song. I saw it in an ad on snapchat and I am so glad that I did.

[@jaketucker7575]

I love everything about this so much but mostly the fact that everything you say in it can directly be translated into my life, which is exactly what music is for and how you’re supposed to use it, and I appreciate that a lot. No doubt lingers in my mind that you are gonna blow the hell up this year at that and I hope I’ll see you there ;) There is something about this that makes me feel every part of my mind want to scream and sing along because the words are all so very true to heart and the emotion and authenticity pours right out of my headphones and into my soul. Keep up the good work this is what music is about and you are doing everything right I love this and hope you keeping making music for as long as you can 😊😊

[@daniellehoward4583]

This was literally amazing. I wish you the best in all your endeavors and please never stop making music ❤️

[@isabellahawley1179]

I love this so much! So powerful! The warping of the video gives me strong rubber soul vibes!

[@alexwinkler8715]

Omg!!!! Kathleen is the songstress I have been looking for!!!!! I am so glad I discovered her!!!!!!

[@Angelhaswings555]

I agree I literally want to cry Because it’s that good ...

[@caleb-sq8ux]

Cool

[@jasonjayakar]

[@LeonKuwatathe53rd]

I Got This Song On An Ad And Immediately Fell In Love.

[@ThoughtsByGigi]

WOW chills. This is phenomenal!!!

[@rhenstir]

Wow!! I’m glad my imagination led me here!! Awesome such a sweet voice

[@meghand4232]

Kathleen! I just discovered you yesterday and I am in love with your stylings and messages. I only can hear 4 tracks over and over. Do you have other tracks I'm not finding. Newly Addicted

[@jonestraloma]

Have you heard her work on the Tetris Effect soundtrack? Its so good. Ive loved every song of hers ive found so far.

[@marianwilliams7745]

Beautiful voice!

[@zlovas1129]

Kathleen is the best thing in 2020. Her music makes me feel alive.

[@BlazedNotFazed]

I'm living for this. I love it.

[@lilyallred5414]

thank you for vocalizing and visualizing the heart aching thoughts i’ve been having for the last several years. it all feels like an awful slow motion fall into our own end, and even though i did nothing to contribute, it feels as though it’s my responsibility to fix it. but i know that the people who understand the consequences of our actions to the planet as clearly as i do will do everything we can in our power to end this choking of mother earth, of our communities, and the suffering that we as a society have created in the recent decades. it’s artists like you who give us hope and remind us that we’re not alone in feeling the weight of our future. who remind us that it is urgent to fight back and to speak up for those who don’t have a voice. thank you 💜

[@Ladymisscattleya]

Great new find!!! This is only the beginning for what I predict is going too be an awesome career for this incredibly talented artist!!!🕊🎶1💞✌🏼🎶🕊

[@jeagerjack2767]

You probably won’t see this Kathleen... but I still want to say this... I’ve been a big big fan since I first heard you on always afternoon and you are definitely one of the best artist period!!! I just noticed today that this song existed and I’m glad I went to your Spotify and checked on you! I’m glad you are making more great music. I hope you have the fame you deserve and go a long ways

[@vanessar3017]

My favourite song right now

[@daddyfish2183]

The Great Barrier Reef Was recently pronounced dead It's last Holy words were not "Make America Great Again" Which way does the wind blow, Dylan? I'm standing in the storm but I've lost my sense of feeling Ideas climb out of bed And promise that they'll fix it I look at you, you look at me And we excitedly agree That one day we're still gonna change it Something comes up And we all fall back asleep Oh it's been the longest year of our lives I close my eyes and re-live every moment One-hundred sleepless nights Enough to make the comedians cry Which way does the wind blow, Dylan? I'm in a lot of fire But I've lost my sense of feeling Oh, it's been the longest year It's been the longest year It's been the longest year It's been the longest year of our lives What kind of dream is this What's gonna happen next? What kind of dream is this? What's going to happen, happen next? Every other day we break another record How many more 'till there's nothing left? Oh, here go again into another longest year

[@tomtom3889]
