1)Berlin is an American new wave band featuring lead singer Terri Nunn. Berlin was formed in Orange County, Southern California in 1979.
Their first single, "A Matter of Time," was released in 1980 on I.R.S. Records and featured replacement vocalist Virginia Macolino on lead vocals after Nunn had temporarily left the band to pursue an acting career. Toni Childs also sang for Berlin briefly before Nunn rejoined the act and their indie released singles and EP Pleasure Victim became a regional hit in LA selling 30,000 copies before they signed with Geffen.
Their first significant hit was the controversial synth-driven "Sex (I'm A...)" (1982), which was banned by some radio & tv stations due to its graphic lyrics and risque video. They had two other early hits: "The Metro", which was later covered by System of a Down, Alkaline Trio, and Sleepthief; and "No More Words", who's subsequent video saw Terri Nunn and bandmates re-enact a Bonnie and Clyde style car chase and shoot-out. Despite their new wave dance club roots, it was the MOR ballad "Take My Breath Away" (from the movie Top Gun) that became their best-selling platinum selling single in 1986.
Aside from Nunn, the core members of the band were founding member John Crawford (primary songwriter, bass guitar & keyboards), and David Diamond (keyboards & guitar). Other members of the band included Ric Olsen (lead guitar), Matt Reid (keyboards), Rob Brill (drums) and Rod Learned (drums). Berlin officially disbanded in 1987 and Nunn retained the legal rights to usage of the band's name after legal wranglings with the founding member of the group, John Crawford. Terri Nunn recreated Berlin (with a new lineup of musicians) in 1999.
They were featured recently on the VH1 show, Bands Reunited where they all agreed to get back together to not only reunite as friends but as a band. They played one show at The Roxy in California to a sold-out crowd.
Terri Nunn has said she was somewhat taken aback by the success of "Take My Breath Away" on Adult Contemporary radio stations, since none of Berlin's singles up to that point had been suitable for AC radio. She is quoted in The Billboard Book of Number One Hits by Fred Bronson as saying that the first radio station she heard playing it was "something my mom listens to."

Lost in the Crowd
Berlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why'd you cry?
I've been waiting ,
I've been hating you lately
Start watching, watching you go
Are they all the same?
Are they all the same?
And I know
I'm lost in the crowd
(oh no woo ooh)
I'm lost then I'm found
(oh yeah ooh ooh ooh)
I'm lost in the crowd
(oh no woo ooh)
I'm lost then I'm found
(oh yeah ooh ooh ooh)
Changing, changing baby
All the time
I can do without all the
Rumors and new lovers
Watching, watching it's a crying shame
Cause they wanna stay,
But they're all the same
Am I lost in the crowd
Crying, crying baby all the time
Cause he'll leave you
And then find another girl to use
Watching watching while loves gone by
And He won't take me back,
He won't take me back,
And I know why
I'm lost in the crowd
The lyrics of Berlin's song Lost In The Crowd seem to revolve around the feeling of being lost and alone in a world that seems to have too many people and too little love. The singer is waiting for their lover, who seems to be crying, and they wonder if their lover is changing constantly and if they are simply a part of the crowd - indistinguishable and unimportant. The singer hates their lover for this, while also feeling lost and disconnected from the world around them. The lyrics suggest that the singer is longing for someone who will not leave them, who will not use them, and who will not be like everyone else - someone who will see them as unique and important.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I'm lost in the crowd", suggesting that the singer feels invisible and unimportant. They sing of being lost and then found, but it is unclear who or what they are being found by. The verses speak of watching and waiting, of crying and changing, of rumors and new lovers - all of which seem to be part of a never-ending cycle that the singer cannot escape. They are lost in the crowd of people who are all the same, all looking for love and connection but never finding it.
Overall, Lost In The Crowd is a poignant and emotional song that speaks to the universal human experience of feeling lost and disconnected. The lyrics are open to interpretation, but they suggest a deep longing for love and authenticity in a world that can be cruel and indifferent.
