Winter Songs

Ronan Keating

A hushed, acoustic-led collection of seasonal reflections. Keating trades his stadium-pop polish for intimate folk arrangements and a weathered, raspy warmth.

November 13, 2009 · Polydor

A quiet, earthy collection of seasonal reflections that feels more like a cold night by the fire than a festive celebration.

Moments Worth Listening For
The vulnerability in the opening breath of the Joni Mitchell cover, River, where the piano feels unusually fragile.
The way the cello swells during the bridge of Caledonia, grounding the song in a deep, earthy Celtic melancholy.
The sparse, almost skeletal arrangement of Silent Night that highlights the natural grain and grit of the vocal performance.
