09 December, 2009 Interesting track
I like it, but I agree with the people here, who prefer the Linear version, this one is a bit too quiet for my taste...but then again this is only a snippet and it may grow on listens...

Beautiful would be the word....
and if the movie is the same as the Danish one by the same title.....the song will do so well with it.
Oh! siiiiiiiigh....go watch the movie - go listen to the song....

This is a song I can listen to again and again. Very relaxing....especially after a long day at work.

08 December, 2009 you may want to play the entire song

08 December, 2009 Not quite, Boys...
I think the song has potential, but it sounds like Bono can't quite get a grasp on the vocal. He sounds very tentative and unsure of the direction in which he wants to go. I think it needs more work.

08 December, 2009 Winter song
I like the song so far and think it will sound good in the theatre.

08 December, 2009 Linear
is this not what we heard in the anton corbin movie linear ( minute 10:57)....awesome... I thought I had heard it somewhere before and indeed, there it was...
.I'm 25 and
trying to stay alive
its hot as hell like butter on toast....
that movie is so ON with the music.....you know, how some days you're driving or walking through a field and you could just imagine being serenaded by Beethoven...da da da da da da da da da da da da da... or the william tell overture....or maybe a personal horn section( tower of power horns would be my choice).... anyway ..great song
at 21, I was born a son; and on that day I knew I could kill.
To protect the ones we put bullets in guns....

08 December, 2009 no line on the horizon
I think will.i.am's version of no line on the horizon should be released in the US.
b-side of GOYB .. sounds much better then album version ..
reconnect a little with the younger generation .. spunkier and cooler

08 December, 2009 classical ballad
at a first listening the song seems too simple. But the melody is still on my mind after 2 days: emotional singing (even without listening to the lyrics), dreams but image is clear. A classic. (although I'm a massive U2 fan, not all U2 songs are) but this one is pure.
Littel bit of Beatles-piano, little bit of opera, little bit of 'staring at the sun' from POP.

08 December, 2009 Magical
As usual, you make music with so much feeling. I love it!

08 December, 2009 AMAZING!
Simply beautiful! I didn't they could make this song better than the original version... and as usual with U2... THEY DID!! AMAZING SONG!
ruurd
08 December, 2009 Just wondering..
Why didn't U2 put this nice song on one of the recent cd singles in stead of one of those remixes?

07 December, 2009 WOW!

The original is way better. I hate when they strip away great songs like the Ground Beneath her Feet. The original was great and I wish they would have put it on the album
el_magno
07 December, 2009 We want BOTH versions!!
Will there be an option to download the BOTH versions of "Winter" in the near future? Although i like the new version i have to admit that the Linear version is way better...

06 December, 2009 Nice BONO version but LINEAR sound more
Linear version is more aligned with the interesting U2 Sound Evolution (Rich in sounds, drums, guitars and bases)

06 December, 2009 Please finish the original version
I understand why the band would leave this track off from 'No Line on the Horizon' ("White As Snow" is fantastic, by the way), but I hope they finish the vocals/lyrics on the version from the Linear film (it's very Unforgettable Fire-ish, in a good way). This version is a bit too neutered for my tastes.

06 December, 2009 Good but I like version on 'Linear' bett
I think that the re-worked version is pretty good, but I like the version on "Linear" much better. It is much more powerful I think.
Bono's vocals RULE on the 'Linear' version, and so does Edge's guitar.
I hope that they put that version on the new album, and leave the re-worked one for 'Brothers' only.

06 December, 2009 Not for live act!!!
Maybe when you hear the music track has a more solid opinion ... than was shown ,.... I do not see this song being played on the 360 tour, U2 ... but ... the time we get to love whatever is done, this ... very pleasant ... but something is missing!

06 December, 2009 I like this a lot
And I hope it's successful for the Boys. It doesn't sound like classic U2, but no one else could write a song like this.
