Pentatonix, known for their stunning vocal harmonies and creative a cappella arrangements, released a cover of Kanye West’s “Coldest Winter” on November 12, 2014. This track is part of their album “That’s Christmas to Me,” which showcases a mix of traditional Christmas songs and unique covers. “Coldest Winter” stands out in this album as it brings a more somber and reflective tone compared to the other festive tracks.
Originally by Kanye West, “Coldest Winter” was released in 2008 on his album “808s & Heartbreak.” The song was a heartfelt dedication to West’s late mother, Donda West, and expresses deep feelings of loss and longing. Pentatonix’s version retains the emotional depth of the original while adding their signature vocal flair.
Lyrics: Coldest Winter by Pentatonix
On lonely nights I start to fade
Her love’s a thousand miles away
Memories made in the coldest winter
Goodbye my friend will I ever love again
Memories made in the coldest winter
It’s 4 am and I can’t sleep
Her love is all that I can see
(Her love is all that I can see)
Memories made in the coldest winter
Goodbye my friend will I ever love again
Memories made in the coldest winter
Goodbye my friend will I ever love again
If spring can take the snow away
(If spring can take the snow away)
Can it melt away all our mistakes
(Can it melt away all our mistakes)
Memories made in the coldest winter
Goodbye my friend (goodbye my friend)
Will I ever love again
Memories made in the coldest winter
Goodbye my friend I won’t ever love again
Memories made in the coldest winter
