Fall & Winter
The Fall & Winter CD combo debuted on the Billboard Top Heatseeker's chart at No. 24.[10]
Sound
Stylistically, this EP reflects a more experimental side to Foreman's songwriting. Whereas the Fall EP displayed a more straightforward approach musically, experimentation on Winter is much more evident. "White as Snow" toys with a slightly eastern influenced sound, while "In Love" carries a very oriental, and near-mantric feel—both new concepts in Foreman's music.[11] The feel of the album is indeed much more 'wintry', reflecting the dead of wintertime.
Other appearances
- "Behind Your Eyes" appeared in an episode of the TV Show, One Tree Hill[12]
