La pista se planeó originalmente para incluirse en el álbum de la banda de 2009 No Line on the Horizon, pero se cortó al final de las sesiones de grabación ya que no encajaba con el tema del álbum. La canción sí aparece en la película acompañante Linear. "Winter" se escribió para la película de guerra de 2009 Brothers a solicitud del director Jim Sheridan, y suena durante los créditos finales. Se han grabado varias versiones diferentes de la canción, incluyendo un arreglo de rock uptempo en Linear y una versión acústica más lenta en Brothers.

“On that winter day when Nature was deep in her annual slumber and seemed to have kicked the clothes off. Copses, dells, quarries and all hidden places, which had been mysterious mines for exploration in leafy summer, now exposed themselves and their secrets.”
“Winter's not gone yet, if the wild-geese fly that way.”
“Many of the phenomena of Winter are suggestive of an inexpressible tenderness and fragile delicacy. We are accustomed to hear this king described as a rude and boisterous tyrant; but with the gentleness of a lover he adorns the tresses of Summer.”
