Critical reception

The double-CD edition of Live aus Berlin containing all 24 songs of the Columbiahalle concert was favourably reviewed by Linus Schwanke of German music magazine laut.de, who felt that the album faithfully captured the live performance.^[1] Felix Kosel of German music magazine bloom was also impressed with the double-CD album, commenting that it reflected the feelings and atmosphere in the Columbiahalle. However, he was less impressed with the video recording on the DVD album, criticizing the unsharp pictures, the editing and the cinematography.^[5] By contrast, the DVD album was seen in a positive light by Anja Kesting of German women's magazine AVIVA-Berlin, as it provided a glimpse behind the scenes.^[6]
