Gorgeous <3 One of my favorite ever songs and you did a beautiful job on it

[jackgraves]

You Know me being a person with chronic depression, I find that wherever I listen to your music I find that the world gets a little bit brighter.

Love your music.

I have been a Tori Amos fan since 1991. This rendition is very impressive. I love your voice.

Snow can wait, I forgot my mittens
Wipe my nose, get my new boots on
I get a little warm in my heart when I think of winter
I put my hand in my father's glove

I run off where the drifts get deeper
Sleeping beauty trips me with a frown
I hear a voice: "You must learn to stand up
For yourself, cause I can't always be around"
He says:

"When you gonna make up your mind?
When you gonna love you as much as I do?
When you gonna make up your mind?
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed"
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear

Boys get discovered as winter melts
Flowers competing for the sun
Years go by and I'm here still waiting
Withering where some snowman was

"Mirror mirror, where's the crystal palace?"
But I only can see myself
Skating around the truth who I am
But I know that the ice is getting thin

"When you gonna make up your mind?
When you gonna love you as much as I do?
When you gonna make up your mind?
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses are still in bed"
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear

Hair is grey and the fires are burning
So many dreams on the shelf
You say "I wanted you to be proud of me"
I always wanted that myself

"When you gonna make up your mind?
When you gonna love you as much as I do?
When you gonna make up your mind?
Cause things are gonna change so fast
All the white horses have gone ahead"
I tell you that I'll always want you near
You say that things change, my dear

Beautiful.

First few seconds had me in tears already, this song is super relatable to me. Thank you for making such a gorgeous rendition of this song.

This is beautiful! I had forgotten this song even existed....I remember hearing it on the radio as a kid.

For 5 minutes I was in Narnia, and it was incredible.
Love you so much.

Oh god, Karliene, I just got a flash of shivers when I realized which "Winter" this is ... I love that you covered this, your rendition is so beautiful! As usual. Thank you, this made my day <3

[RoxaneGenot]

It always feels amazing when your new songs are the first thing I get to listen to when I wake up! :) My dear, I was very sad to learn about your lame back issues lately and I'm impressed you still found the strength to release more magical beauty for the world in the meantime. Please know I'm sending you all my best thoughts from far away at the moment hoping this rubbish burden disappears at once. We all love you so much!

[justynawoek]

OMG I fell in love in that song...it's so magical 💜💜

Your voice is like an angel. Thank you so much Karline <3
