Erika Levy’s new single ‘Berlin‘ — a song about falling in love again after fully buying into the idea that your heart had checked out for good. And that makes the whole thing hit with this strange sweetness — like realizing you’re crying and smiling at the same time.
The track floats in with this understated glow. The guitar tones are soft, maybe even a little blurry, like an old photograph you found in a drawer you swore you’d never open again. Erika’s voice? Bare, fragile, but never weak. It walks this tightrope between disbelief and surrender — like she’s tiptoeing back into something warm, but still testing the floorboards.

Lyrically, she doesn’t get tangled in metaphor — just fragments of feeling, glimpses of the shift from guarded to open. You get the sense this was written in the afterglow of something real, when you’re still too stunned to articulate it fully. That stunned silence — that’s what Berlin captures.
It’s a small song doing a big thing — chronicling the reboot of belief. No fireworks, just soft light coming in through the blinds.
SCORE 8.3/10
Quiet, tender, disarming.
