The 2021 Prism Prize for Best Canadian Music Video was awarded to Theo Kapodistrias, for his clip for Haviah Mighty’s Thirteen. We will continue to profile noteworthy Canadian videos that are eligible for the 2022 prize, including this one from a critically-acclaimed Toronto singer/songwriter.


The Weather Station - Endless Time 

The Weather Station is a Toronto-based folk outfit led by singer Tamara Lindeman, initially formed in 2006. Their 2021 album release, Ignorance, marked the biggest departure from their indie roots, featuring strings and brass as a greater part of their sound. This track, Endless Time, off their most recent album, How Is It That I Should Look At The Stars, is another departure, focusing now primarily on the tones of the piano.

The video follows Tamara Lindeman as she makes her way down a Toronto street, interacting with the various people she comes across. The grey sky of the city sets a melancholic mood up for the song to fit perfectly within. The interactions she has are meaningful and full of longing, you can feel it. But longing for what? A video like this shot in a ‘single take’ is only as good as the setting and content of that one take. Here it is expertly done, sharp and without ever losing momentum in the story of the video almost to the point of causing the viewer to lose focus on the song, certainly not the worst problem to have.

Kesha Brings 'Holiday Road' to The Billboard Canadian Hot 100

The newly independent pop singer's cover of Lindsay Buckingham's 1983 song from National Lampoon's Vacation was first released as a Spotify exclusive for the holidays. Michael Bublé's Christmas, meanwhile, remains at No. 1 on the Canadian Albums chart.

Kesha has brought an under-appreciated holiday gem back to the charts. Her version of "Holiday Road" debuts on this week's Billboard Canadian Hot 100 (dated Dec. 28, 2024) at No. 83.

"Holiday Road" was originally released in 1983 by Fleetwood Mac legend Lindsey Buckingham and serves as the propulsive opening theme to the Chevy Chase-starting classic comedy road trip film National Lampoon's Vacation.
