This article is about the single by Tori Amos. For other uses of the word, see Winter (disambiguation).

"Winter" was the second song to be released as a single, in 1992, from Tori Amos' debut solo album, Little Earthquakes. The song also appears on Amos' 2003 compilation, Tales of a Librarian. The music video can be seen on the two currently available video collections - Tori Amos: Complete Videos 1991-1998 and Fade to Red. The song was written about Amos's relationship with her father, who is a minister.

The single was released globally in a variety of formats with slightly differing artwork and track listings. Ironically the most commonly available version is the United States release, which is labeled as a "Limited Edition" release. That version comes in a digipack case with a compartment in which a "handwritten lyrics" insert is contained. The far more rare U.K. Limited Edition release duplicates the b-sides of the Crucify E.P. which was released in the U.S.A. (It is essentially the four tracks that appear on that release besides the title track.)
