Click below(AT THE VERY BOTTOM) and watch Jana Mashonee's Youtube video( i'm not smart enough to have the video actually up already, basically, i don't have a Youtube account-seriously). Either way, like many others have attempted, she sings the Sam Cooke original 'A Change is Gonna Come'. It's actually rather decent/good/better than the others, although it seems to take a minute for her to get her momentum ( guess she studied the original too closely or something).
A bit of background. Jana is from
North Carolina, now lives in Connecticut, is a member of the Lumbee tribe (same as my grandfather). Note: Somewhere between Lumberton and Virginia, Lumbee and Cherokee distinguish themselves differently, but they are basically from the same lineage. And... she has a new album out called 'New Born Moon'. She's been around for a minute, I first checked her in Raleigh, NC for a free show she did some years ago.
I used to have a crush on Jana, and still kind of do. Her video doesn't even show how hot she really is. Oh! and it features guitar by Derek Miller. She's such a 'Pocahontas'. SO FLYYYYY...
so beautiful, so sexy. But enough. Good, soulful, spiritual, music.
