1) Caesar was a three-piece indie rock band from Amsterdam, The Netherlands (1994-2008), consisting of Roald van Oosten (vocals, guitar), Sem David Bakker (bass) and Marit de Loos (drums). Their début album, Clean (1996), was the very first release of Holland's prestigious Excelsior Recordings label. The band would release three more studio albums: No Rest For The Alonely (1998), Leaving Sparks (2000) and the self-titled Caesar (2003). They were one of the most popular indie rock bands in The Netherlands around the year 2000, played almost every major Dutch festival, won a 'Silver Harp' and toured internationally.
Following a sabbatical year (2005), the group released Before My band Explodes (2006), a compilation of outtakes and rarities. The band arranged a 'farewell gig' in the Melkweg in Amsterdam in April 2008 - and called it a day.
Frontman, Roald van Oosten, continued to release music, first with his shirt-lived new group, Ghost Trucker (2006). 2016 saw the release of his first solo album.
2) Cæsar is Bjarne Bøgesø Rasmussen (May 15, 1938 - April 22, 2000), a Danish protest/folk singer.
3) The American Caesar formed in December 2010, and while none of the members can call the same town home, they have all found a home within Caesar. Caesar hits the pavement as much as possible and having members from Michigan and Indiana, they make sure that whenever they are given a stage to play on they make sure to leave their mark. The live performance of this group is what they pride themselves on, and they entertain in a manner that fans won't soon forget. As for the music, it can stand on its own. The way in which the music of Caesar is delivered through speakers is for lack of a better word: aggressive.It can be found in the rhythmic attack from the instruments and the chilling delivery of the vocals. The music is high energy and unceasing. Caesar has hopes to find a home in an industry that is constantly changing. With the groups first full length expected in the early summer 2012, Caesar is putting all they have into creating a unique music experience that they are going to give back to every single person that has supported them.

Caesar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wanna figure out what I'm gonna do
First I'm gonna watch the stars, they are all around me
Tell me where you are
Hey, this is what I'll do,
Draw you in the sky, turning into you
I'm gonna go the way, I saw the other day, I'm sure that I had been there
(Maybe) I don't wanna go, (maybe) I don't wanna know
(maybe)You made me realise (maybe) I'm just a star in your eyes
(maybe) I don't wanna go, (maybe) I don't wanna know
(maybe) You made me realise (maybe) I'm just a star in your eyes
Hey, mister Moon shines too,
I don't really know what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna go the way, I saw the other day, I'm sure that I had been there
It wasn't all that great
(Maybe) I don't wanna go, (maybe) I don't wanna know
(maybe)You made me realise (maybe) I'm just a star in your eyes
(maybe) I don't wanna go, (maybe) I don't wanna know
(maybe) You made me realise (maybe) I'm just a star in your eyes
The song "In Your Eyes" by Caesar talks about a person who is trying to figure out what they want to do in life. The song starts with the person looking up at the moon and stars and wondering where they are. They then decide to draw the person they are thinking of in the sky. The person then reflects on a time when they had been to a place they thought would be great, but it wasn't.
The chorus of the song repeats the lines "maybe I don't wanna go, maybe I don't wanna know, maybe you made me realize I'm just a star in your eyes." This line suggests that the person is afraid of discovering their true purpose and that they don't want to know if they are just seen as an insignificant "star" in someone else's eyes.
Overall, the song is about self-reflection and the fear of not being important or significant in the grand scheme of things.
