Get Me Through December
Alison Krauss Lyrics
How pale is the sky that brings forth the rain
As the changing of seasons prepares me again
For the long bitter nights and the wild winter's day
My heart has grown cold my love stored away
My heart has grown cold my love stored away.
I've been to the mountain left my tracks in the snow
Where souls have been lost and the walking wounded go
I've taken the pain no girl should endure
But faith can move mountains
Just get me through December
A promise I'll remember
Get me through December
So I can start again.
No divine purpose brings freedom from sin
And peace is a gift that must come from within
I've looked for the love that will bring me to rest
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest
Get me through December
A promise I'll remember
Get me through December
So I can start again.
I've been to the mountain left my tracks in the snow
Where souls have been lost and the walking wounded go
I've taken the pain no girl should endure
But faith can move mountains
But faith can move mountains of that I am sure.

Signed to Rounder Records as a 14-year-old fiddler from Champaign, Illinois, she has become the most recognized face in contemporary bluegrass, a critically acclaimed artist who has brought modern sophistication to the genre while respecting its traditions. Songfacts reports that in 2011 Krauss recorded her first ever number one country album in her home country with Paper Airplane. She has also sold upwards of 11 million records and garnered 2 Oscar nominations as well as 26 Grammy® Awards, the most for any female artist in Grammy® history.
Also impressive is Krauss's unwavering commitment to being an independent-label artist who has succeeded far beyond the scope of many major-label artists. She has circulated freely within pop, mainstream country and roots music circles, as a solo artist and with her long-time band Union Station, creating impeccably produced records that appeal to an equally wide-ranging and inquisitive audience. Krauss has continued doing things the old-fashioned way: following her heart and whatever path the music takes her on.

Sometimes she applies vibrato, but here she does not and her voice takes on a soul piercing purity that makes me shiver.I can listen to her singing forever. I just love Alison Krauss. I know I am not alone.
Ann Egan
She does actually use vibrato in two places but very very subtle, which is beautiful
Marie Rocheleau-Demers
Beautiful!!!
John Lowther
You are not alone… :)
Regina Adair
That is the hardest kind of singing. Very hard to hold a tone without vibrato. She is pure magic.

Alison’s voice can make one’s soul fly. So innocent and pure.

Wow, two treasures Natalie MacMaster on the violin and Alison Krauss vocal solo. What unbelievable performances.

So many lessons from Alison...beyond music. Just watching her performances with others, listening to other professionals talk about her, seeing the number of professionals who want her, reading articles and comments from ordinary people--she is an incredible person. I'm watching her watch Natalie....full appreciation. For Natalie's story to happen, it means that when she met Alison at the workshop, Alison didn't competitively size up Natalie and say something like "I sing too".
We need to implement a class in our school curriculums and call it "Alison 101".

Well put! She is an all around Class Act!
