"Winter Marches On" is a song by Duran Duran, released as the B-side to their fourtheenth single "Notorious" from the album Notorious by Capitol-EMI on 20 October 1986.
About the song[]
The song was written by Duran Duran, who also co-produced the track with Nile Rodgers.
This was the first time on a Duran Duran single that the B-side was not an original recording, because "Winter Marches On" was the unretouched Notorious album version. Before this, Duran Duran had always provided either completely original songs, or previously unheard remixes on the B-side.

Lyrics[]
(Oooh, ohhh, Mmmm) The trade's on. She drains emotion - To drink from, The breast of fortune Dreams have frozen, Crystal in the morning Birthtime rose, A thorn for coronation. - All arise from your rest We'll find enough there to feed you. Soon you'll belong to the blessed Spare us your lives while we need you. Loud, is the music, the crowd is bringing Out of my head as the winter marches on... Loud is the music the sky is ringing Out of my head as the winter marches on... Loud, is the music, the crowd is bringing Out of my head as the winter marches on... Loud is the music the sky is ringing Out of my head as the winter marches on... And on... Winter marches on...
