Lexi Berg’s new single, "Bermuda Triangle," is a mesmerizing piano ballad that poignantly captures the feeling of being an outsider. Co-written with hitmakers Jim Eliot and Grammy award-winning Jimmy Hogarth, the song is a heartfelt exploration of loneliness, loss, and disconnection. The lyrics are intricately woven with rich, metaphorical space imagery that describes a surreal, almost alien landscape—echoing the existential dread of being lost and unseen. The imagery of "Milky Way crumbs on the ground" and "purple skies, silver leaves" paint a vivid picture of desolation and yearning, making the listener feel the weight of existential disorientation and the search for belonging.
Musically, "Bermuda Triangle" stands in stark contrast to Lexi’s recent folk-infused track "Lonely Satellite," showcasing her versatility as an artist. The haunting piano arrangement creates a somber, reflective atmosphere that is beautifully complemented by Lexi’s raw, emotive vocals. As the song progresses, the crescendo of haunting vocals and raw piano crescendos amplify the track’s emotional intensity. The production, managed by Eliot and Hogarth, is exquisite, allowing the nuanced layers of the song to shine through. The song’s blend of contemporary pop with retro 70s singer-songwriter influences lends it a timeless quality while maintaining its contemporary relevance.
