“The Longest Year” is a gorgeous single fit for trying times. A calm intro seduces, warm chords gently sway and gain some pace as the bass joins, chugging away underneath. All the while, Kathleen’s unquestionably stunning vocals are on full display—intimate, confident.

The Longest Year Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The Great Barrier Reef
Was recently pronounced dead
Its last holy words were not: “Make america great again”
[Refrain]
Which way does the wind blow Dylan?
I'm standing in the storm
But I've lost my sense of feeling
[Verse 2]
Ideas climb out of the 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 sure gonna change it
Then something comes up and we all fall back asleep
[Chorus]
Oh, it's been the longest year of our lives
[Verse 3]
I close my eyes
And relive every moment
One hundred sleepless nights enough to make
The comedians cry
[Refrain]
Which way does the wind blow Dylan?
I'm in the line of fire
But I've lost my sense of feeling
[Chorus]
Oh it's been the longest year
It's been the longest year
It's been the longest year of our lives
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
What kind of dream is this?
What's gonna happen next?
What kind of dream is this?
What's gonna happen, happen next?
[Outro]
Every other day we break another record
How many more till there's nothing left?
Oh, here we go again, into another
Longest year

What inspired you to make the song?
I was sitting at my keyboard noodling on a chord progression and scrolling through Instagram.[There was] Trump—MAGA red everywhere in my feed. There were a few posts about it and then right below it, a post about how much of the Great Barrier Reef had been officially pronounced dead. The dissonance...
