“Fall Like An Angel” by Lexi Berg is a hauntingly beautiful winter ballad that captures the delicate balance of melancholy and hope. Co-written with acclaimed hitmakers Jim Eliot and Grammy-winning Jimmy Hogarth, this piano-driven piece combines introspective lyrics, cinematic imagery, and Berg’s soulful vocal performance to create a deeply evocative listening experience.
The track opens with a minimal, haunting piano arrangement, its sparse notes evoking images of falling snow and frozen stillness. Lexi’s voice enters softly, its rich, grainy texture imbued with a sense of quiet defeat and self-reflection. Her delivery is raw and vulnerable, painting a picture of loneliness and repentance while subtly conveying resilience beneath the surface.
Lyrically, the song employs space imagery to explore themes of loss and disconnection. Yet, as Berg herself describes, it also finds beauty in the moments of falling—those fragile, vulnerable instances that reveal our humanity. The metaphors of descent are tenderly balanced with glimmers of hope, underscoring the warmth and connection that emerge even in life’s coldest seasons.
Jim Eliot’s production adds depth to the track, keeping the instrumentation understated to let the emotional weight of Berg’s voice shine through. The gradual layering of harmonies and subtle cinematic touches transforms the ballad into an intimate yet expansive soundscape, drawing listeners into its reflective mood.
“Fall Like An Angel” is a masterful winter anthem that lingers long after the final note, like the soft hush of snow falling on a winter’s night. Listen to it on Spotify.
