Although Donna Summer was wellknown for her sighing and groaning on 'Love to love you', she appears on the sleeve of this single in winter clothes. 'Winter melody' is a soul ballad. The song speaks of a woman struggling to
come to terms with the fact that her relationship has ended. As with
much of Summer's material at that time (particularly with songs found on
her concept albums), the song played for a considerable amount of time
(over six minutes), however, the song was edited for its release as a
single.
The single was taken from the album Four Seasons of Love, and the song represented the
"winter" phase of this concept album. It reached number 43 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and number 27 in the UK singles chart.
