For its role in '' Brothers '' , " Winter " was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song at the 2010 ceremony . In a preview of '' No Line on the Horizon '' , '' Q '' called the '' Linear '' version one of the " instantly striking tracks " while describing Bono 's " lyric about a soldier in an unspecified war zone " as " fine " . '' Rolling Stone '' reviewer Brian Hiatt called it a " lovely discarded ballad " . The '' Los Angeles Times '' had a negative impression of the '' Brothers '' version , labelling it " a snails-paced somber number with some oh-so-serious , look-at-me flashes of rhythm " while noting that it " could have used some of the gospel atmospheres of the act 's 2009 effort '' No Line on the Horizon '' .
