"Penn Station" by Andrew Barth Feldman - Live from Penn Station

this a song I wrote called Penn Station, from my album called Penn Station, performed live outside of Penn Station in New York City
and you can listen to this song and this full album on all your streaming platforms right this very second
Written and Performed by Andrew Barth Feldman
Filmed and Directed by Pedro Hernandez
special thanks to the attendant who kicked us out, the woman who cheered me on as she passed by, the family taking a photo in the background, the stuffed animal that crosses through, and my producer Ryan Sanchez
LYRICS:
Wide shot of hundreds of people running to their train
The cold lights and all the construction
And the patter of an unprojected rain
Now zoom in on a couple of kids
With a tear-filled goodbye
They can't say a word but their wishes
Are all written out in the blacks of their eyes
This was their plan all along
They knew they'd have to be strong
But how could they know 'bout the love that they'd bring
That in just two months, they would change everything
But as she goes onto a train
He is so, so lost in his pain
That he's thinking about buying a ticket
And hopping on board
And as he reads the letter she wrote him
She needs to pour her emotion on her way to Summit
'Cause all the risk was worth the reward, they know
But they can't let go
Of this evergreen sensation
That they left there at Penn Station
Montage of her in her car as she drives back to school
Still shot of him in his bed
Cause he won't be getting up anytime soon
They do all the textbook stuff
Knowing their love was enough
But feeling mature for the choice that they made
As the sun sets on another day
Where they're just afraid that when
He goes off on his own
That he won't remember the tone of their voices together
When they sang all the music they made
And now she'll say that he couldn't hurt her
That she's okay with the premature murder
Of all of the dreams they were too smart to speak into promises
They're accomplices
It's a man-made constellation
That they left there at Penn Station
And every line of every song
Tells them life is too short but each day is too long
It feels like an ending that hopefully has an end
So in the meantime they write about it like it didn't happen to them
So as he tries to grow even more
And as she tries to get back to before
Maybe they'll understand that they're both only running back home
If they take it one day at a time
Then in one day the words will all rhyme
And they'll be back in space with the moon and the stars
And the years that pass
And the years that will last
If they lose their hesitation
If you still want this creation
Then I'll see you at Penn Station

Did people really just keep walking??? How dare they!!! This was great, so beautiful.

it’s new york

This is like when world-famous violinist, Joshua Bell, played in the Washington subway and no one stopped - until the very end. kzbin.info/www/bejne/np-ygahmlL6Kntk

[@travelerworld4212]

it's called busking. It's exactly like this anywhere in western countries. When you're not famous, no one cares.

[@toecutter1015]

As an old guy I once worked with way back said “ we’re Trash people “ sad but true This kid can really sing and no one even comments Nice job kid you sound great or something

[@UnlockYourRockStar]

Insensitive pple on autopilot zombied😮

[@Vincent........]

Yesterday i've seen no hard feelings with my wife. Your acting with Jennifer Lawrence was great and humorous. And the version of maneater is wonderfull. People on the street don't even know and they just pass by. Youre singing is amazing, could you post a maneater cover video online as well?

[@joao.gabriel.correa]

Really, is perfect version!

[@cbpriv]

Andrew Barth, best actor in No Hard Fealings - I think, and the reaction scene to the pool balls beeing broken, in the bar scene, gave me the best laugh of the year

[@evelynb5892]

"And every line of every song tells them life is too short but each day is too long" 😭Amazing!!!!! Great album

[@jerus_0748]

“Life is too short but each day is to long” i Hate it when we need to say Goodbye to the people we Love, but remember that everything’s happens for a reason 😊 I really Love Your Song Andrew. God Bless you more 🙏

[@sylv4600]

I wish I was there to witness this in person

[@sarahclemmons2171]

So this might sound weird but only twice in my life have I been completely entranced by a song from the very first time listening to it… the first time was when I found my dads old record player and I listened to Billy Joel for the very first time and the second time was today. This was magical.

[@stepijunk]

NYC at its finest. It's like the man is invisible.

[@TakahikoSugimura]

You were so funny in "No Hard Feelings" 😂

[@its_ari9436]

I just finished listening to the full album, they're all incredible!

[@Maria_ny]

Damn that's good 🔥 In typical NY fashion, nothing deters people from going about their business. I would have stopped for you though!

[@briandouglasahern7067]

That was hauntingly beautiful, Andrew.

[@Happeli-ever-after]

[@bornalee9565]

[@DebChaneyArtist]

Andrew! Congratulations on all your amazing success. After seeing you in your recent film I went down the rabbit hole of you,... seeing your posts, awards, recognition, new album (!!! wow!!!) , broadway work and watching you in many interviews. So, This is what I see and I hope if you have a bad day, maybe you can come back to this post and remember the truth of you.... You are such a kind soul. You are full of courage and empathy. You are unstoppable. You are oh-so-talented and willing to allow your soul and gifts to shine through unabashedly. You are thouroughly yourself and this is truly beautiful. You Have So much authentic confidence it spills over and gifts others around yoU! You are obviously so, so smart >-Harvard, yeah I've heard o f it. :-) amazing. But beyond all of this I see such a good, good person. Your parents, your family must be beyond proud of the human you are BEING. When i saw you interacting with JLaw in all those interviews for NHF, I saw a real solid authentic kind hearted young man and my hope is you go as far as you desire and accomplish all that you desire because your light only adds to the goodness here. Thank you for being you. You are seen and appreciated young man! Well done!
