Hi friends! Happy Sunday 😊 I hope you are doing well and staying healthy. Xoxo - - Here’s a  song I wrote called “Streets of Blue.” It’s a song about reflection, growth, change and an understanding of ourselves. It’s easy to feel lost and misunderstood, especially right now. This is such a hard time for all of us. It’s almost impossible not to feel frustrated, depressed, anxious and like a victim. The truth is that we are all feeling out of sorts in one way or another, and we are allowed to feel however we need and want to feel. I hope that you are finding ways to make yourself feel productive, calm, content and maybe even happy during this crazy pandemic. Know that you have every right to feel however you are feeling right now. Best wishes to you and all of my love. xoxo-Abby - - Full video on YouTube and full audio on SoundCloud, lyrics and other poetry I’m my book “The Frog Kissed Me” (please follow! Links in bio) - “Streets of Blue” by Abby Berman - She walked a while on streets of blue As they begged for her to stay. She said she’s lonely there with you, But you won’t let her get away. She thinks the distance Could make all the difference. She walked a while, she walked with you… On streets of blue. Don’t worry, She’ll grow up. She’ll know what she’s talking about, One of these days. Don’t worry, She’ll grow up. Finally learn to say the things she’s supposed to say, One of these days… One of these days. To understand the road she’s on Would be to justify a lie. It’s not her plan to be so wrong, Not her plan to say goodbye. You know the distance It won’t make any difference. She walks alone as she walks with you… On streets of blue. - I love you!

“A Long December” by Counting Crows. ♥️ I know we’re not quite there yet, but this song has been on my mind lately. It’s the perfect amount of moody for the weird weather we’re having right now. I love this band and love this song! Here’s my version of “A Long December” by Counting Crows. I hope you like it! Xoxo Abby Berman The audio version of this song is available on SoundCloud and the full video is on my YouTube channel (link in bio) • • “A Long December” by Counting Crows A long December and there's reason to believe Maybe this year will be better than the last I can't remember the last thing that you said as you were leavin' Now the days go by so fast And it's one more day up in the canyons And it's one more night in Hollywood If you think that I could be forgiven I wish you would The smell of hospitals in winter And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no pearls All at once you look across a crowded room To see the way that light attaches to a girl And it's one more day up in the canyons And it's one more night in Hollywood If you think you might come to California I think you should Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m. And talked a little while about the year I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower, Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe Maybe this year will be better than the last I can't remember all the times I tried to tell my myself To hold on to these moments as they pass And it's one more day up in the canyon And it's one more night in Hollywood It's been so long since I've seen the ocean I guess I should Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah • • #musiclovers #musiccover #singingcover #pianocovers #popsinger #pianoplayer #coversong #1minutecover #shortcover #oneminutecover #countingcrows #countingcrowslyrics #countingcrowsdreadheads #longdecember #countingcrowscover #augustandeverythingafter (at Woodland Hills, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4_ZU6bjwpc/?igshid=1mmym5s7oxgee

Here’s by lullaby: “You Can Dream the Night Away,” originally released on my album “Don’t Kiss the Frogs” (link in bio) ♥️😘🐸. Full video on my YouTube channel (link in bio). This song is very special to me, especially as I start to look and feel more pregnant. Our little baby girl is moving and kicking so much and I feel like I’m getting to know her more every day. This lullaby was originally inspired by my nephews and nieces, with a skosh of Billy Joel’s “Goodnight My Angel,” and a tidbit of the children’s book “I Love You Forever.” These days I can’t wait to sing it to our little baby. Thank you so much for listening. All of my love-xoxo Abby Berman ♥️ New Songs release every Sunday!!!

Feel the darkness hold you tight, Her perfect lullabies. I’ll be watching over you, It’s only you I see And when I’m dreaming, you’ll watch over me. You can dream the night away, Float softly in the clouds, Feel the nighttime’s sweet embrace, Wrap you all around. I’ll be watching over you ‘Till all your dreams are found; And when you wake I’ll catch you on the ground. When you think it’s too late to turn around And it’s too soon to go on, Don’t be scared. Just reach out-you’ll be found. Just rest your mind, Close those tired eyes. You can dream the night away. Rest your sleepy head, Such adventures you will find. While safely in your bed, Peaceful slumbers pull you in. Just let them hold you tight And I will wake you with the morning light. • • #originalmusic #spotifyplaylist #singersofinstagram #singerlife #playlists #singingislife #lovesinging #singersongwriters #femalevocals #femalesinger #youtubemusic #spotifyartist #tunecore #tidalmusic #originalsongs #newmusiccomingsoon #instasing #playlistspotify #keepmusicalive #spotifyplaylists #musicpop #singersongwriterproducer #singerofinstagram #newmusiccoming #vocalsonly #topvocals (at Woodland Hills, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4tXv_Sjzca/?igshid=18pngap1x78z

“Take It Easy" by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey of The Eagles. I love this song ♥️ I can’t sing it without smiling 🥰 • • Full video on YouTube. Full audio on SoundCloud. (links in bio). • • If you don't know the story of the creation of this song and how it was pieced together, here's a little explanation from Browne: youtu.be/NANKBajAaek. • • I get so excited and inspired every time I think about how this song was crafted by two of my favorite songwriters. Frey included the lines from the 2nd verse: "Well I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona Such a fine sight to see It's a girl my lord in a flatbed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me." It's such an iconic image of America, and a perfect example of the way music can paint a picture that is understood by the multitudes. Inspiration at it's finest. I hope you enjoy my version :) xoxo • • Can you think of any other songs that paint such a vivid picture? Comment please! I’m always looking for more cover ideas 😊♥️ • “Take it Easy” by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey • Well I'm runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load I've got seven women on my mind Four that wanna own me two that wanna stone me one says she's a friend of mine Take it easy Take it easy Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy Lighten up while you still can Don't even try to understand Just find a place make your stand Take it easy • • #musiclovers #musiccover #singingcover #pianocovers #popsinger #pianoplayer #coversong #1minutecover #shortcover #oneminutecover #theeagles #takeiteasy #jacksonbrowne ##brucespringsteen #springsteen #glennfrey #ripglennfrey #classicrock #classicrockmusic #rockandrollmusic #americana #americanrock #americanarock (at Woodland Hills, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4I02DhBgiR/?igshid=1xpzlnhnk814q

Here’s a live, home recording of my song “Gabriella.” ♥️ (Full video on YouTube, audio on Soundcloud, and fully produced version on my album”Don’t Kiss the Frogs.” Link in bio). • • I wrote this song for a beautiful friend of mine who hasn’t always seen her worth when it comes to being in a relationship. She is absolutely amazing, and these days she is with someone who is also amazing. Just like “Gabriella,” I hope you always see your worth and choose to surround yourself with those who see your value. • All of my love-xoxo • • “Gabriella” Written and performed by Abby Berman • Given the circumstances, Given the chain of events, I’ve made my deductions. I’ve come to my conclusions. With theories upon theories That I’ve made up in my mind. Didn’t take long to discover That you’ve left him behind. Gabriella, Gabriella Oh, he’s such a perfect fella, But you won’t listen to me And the love that it could be. Gabriella, Gabriella You’re his only Cinderella And, oh, you’re missing the boat- I only hope you’ll still float …Given the circumstances. • • Full lyrics in my Book of lyrics and poetry “The Frog Kissed Me.” Subscribe to my mailing list and get a free digital copy 😘 • • Group 4: Poetry & Lyrics #vocal #lyricist #poetryisart #poetsandwriters #micropoem #poetrydaily #inspirationalthoughts #inspirationalwords #positivethought #hitmakers #hitmaker #losangeleslife #recordingartist #independentmusic #femalemusicians #lamusicscene #lasinger #lamusicians #altfolk #localmusicians #musicismysoul #artpopular #passionformusic #listentothemusic #songwritingsession (at Woodland Hills, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3273vji8_M/?igshid=o431pal4rf79

“American Girl” by the great, late Tom Petty ♥️ I’m pretty sure that listening to this song while driving resulted in my first speeding ticket. (YouTube for the full video-link in bio) • • So much of his music is a huge part of the soundtrack of my life; my “coming of age,” and an understanding of relationships and the significance of memories. And, if you grew up anywhere in California, or America, or if you at any point of your life were young, and hopeful and excited and restless, you can understand. One of the greatest songwriters of all time, and I can confidently roll my eyes anytime someone tells me that they “don’t like Tom Petty”(Shockingly, it’s happened 🤪).  I love his music. I love this song. I hope you like my version of it. • • If you are here in the Los Angeles area and you are affected by the fires, I’m sending all of my love and best wishes. Stay safe.
