The album failed to chart worldwide.

Background and release

[edit]

Tyler announced plans to release a live album in March 2020.[1] Two concerts from her Between the Earth and the Stars Live Tour were recorded; the 20 May show at L'Olympia in Paris was filmed and released as a concert film through Canal+ in 2020.[2] In Berlin was originally set for release on 5 April 2024,[3] but its release date was delayed by three weeks.[4]

The album was formally announced on 21 March 2024.[5] "Faster Than the Speed of Night" was released as the first single on 22 March 2024.[6] "Let's Go Crazy Tonight" and "Bad for Loving You" followed as the second and third singles on 12 April and 25 July, respectively.[7][8]

Tyler described the release as "bittersweet" because In Berlin was recorded "not long before the pandemic started". She described the concert as "a great show [and] a great night".[9] She later expressed that she felt the audience sounded too quiet in the final mix of the recording.[10]

Writing for The Spill Magazine, Aaron Badgley commended Tyler's ability to "present herself and her music in a very different light on stage", concluding that In Berlin is "further proof of her incredible ability to touch souls with her songs and voice".[11] musikmag.de described In Berlin as a collection of "well-crafted" rock, pop and blues songs.[12] Hans Korte of pop-himmel.de viewed the album as "an excellent live document that impressively demonstrates [Tyler's] versatility".[13]
