Quite inspired by their creative work and crazy music, she soon started playing on her fathers' old guitar.
She learned a few basic chords and pretty soon she realized that she wanted to learn more to have a tool to convey her groove and songs.
Always in search of her own unique expression in music she sang at the age of seventeen in a rockband, moved further on to a fusion band and then sang with a jazz trio for a while.
Even though at the age of twenty she met Edo Zanki and worked on a couple of songs with him, she felt it wasn't her time yet. She started writing her own songs and taught herself more about guitar.
In 1989 when rocksinger Jule Neigel and her band had their breakthrough, they booked Christina as a backup singer and she went on 3 tours with them.
Sabine van Baaren was the other girl singer.
Sabine and Mario Argandona founded the Vocalerosin 1993; an outstanding vocal quintet which Christina worked with for six years. They released two albums with four of her songs. Her voice gained even more colour and depth through working with the Vocaleros and their unusual arrangements.
In December 1998 she was invited to go on a Tour through Germany with Fury In The Slaughterhouse.
She produced and released her Debut with 5 songs entitled "She is me"
In September 1999 she supported Long John Baldry on his tour through Germany. In November 1999 she released her CD "LittleLuxuries" with Hypertension/Edel contraire records. This album points out her great talent as a singer/songwriter and guitarist.

she toured with Tuck & Patti.

Abuse
Christina Lux Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Her skin so soft and smooth
She had the cutest smile
Until it was removed
By a man who thought it was just right
To have some fun with a little child
He was a little boy
His face like the sun
Now his soul is on the run
Cause a woman thought it was just right
To have some fun with a little child
See the years go by
Memories learn to hide
To help you survive
But they find the backdoor key
Yes, they sneak in silently
Into your first lovers bed they creep
And no one will believe
A beautiful woman she is
Never got a taste of bliss
She only does what she's supposed to do
She travels far with her mind
Leaves her body far behind
See the years go by
Memories learn to hide
To help you, you, you to survive
But they find the backdoor key
Yes, they sneak in silently
Into your first lovers bed they creep
And no one will believe
You told me to be silent
I swallowed all my anger
You probably didn't even know
What this caused in me
Kleines Mädchen
Deine Haut so sanft und weich
Dein Lächeln bezaubernd
Bis er es zerreißt
Er nimmt sich was er will
Sieh die Jahre gehen vorbei
Die Erinnerung verweht
Das hilft zu überleben
Doch sie kehrt zurück zu dir
Schleicht sich durch die Hintertür
In den Armen deiner ersten Liebe
Wirst du sie wieder spüren
The song "Abuse" by Christina Lux delves into the topic of sexual abuse, particularly toward children. The lyrics describe two individuals, a little girl and boy, whose innocence and joy were taken away by individuals who thought it was acceptable to engage in sexual acts with them. The song also touches on the effects that such abuse has on the psyche, and how memories can resurface even years after the incident has taken place. The lyrics suggest that such traumatic experiences can severely impact an individual's ability to experience happiness and bliss, and can even affect their ability to form romantic relationships.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the idea that memories of abuse can lie dormant within an individual for years before resurfacing unexpectedly, almost as if they have their own will. The individual is left to deal with the resurfacing of these memories alone, as the topic of sexual abuse is often met with discomfort and disbelief from those who have not experienced it themselves. The final verse of the song is a direct message to the abuser, calling them out for the damage they have caused to the victim and expressing the anger and hurt that comes with such an experience.

She was a little girl
A young child
Her skin so soft and smooth
Her skin was tender and velvety to the touch
She had the cutest smile
Her smile was charming
Until it was removed
Until someone destroyed it
By a man who thought it was just right
By a man who believed his actions were justified
To have some fun with a little child
To sexually abuse a child for his own pleasure
He was a little boy
A young child
His face like the sun
His face was bright and radiant
He was a bundle of joy
He was full of happiness and excitement
Now his soul is on the run
Now he struggles with emotional scars and trauma
Cause a woman thought it was just right
Because a woman believed her actions were justified
To have some fun with a little child
To sexually abuse a child for her own pleasure
See the years go by
Watch as time passes
Memories learn to hide
Traumatic events are suppressed in memory
To help you survive
As a coping mechanism to help one move on
But they find the backdoor key
But these memories return unexpectedly
Yes, they sneak in silently
They return without warning
Into your first lovers bed they creep
Haunting memories invade relationships
And no one will believe
It's hard to share traumatic experiences because people may not understand or believe you
A beautiful woman she is
A woman of great physical and emotional appeal
Never got a taste of bliss
Someone who has not experienced genuine happiness
She only does what she's supposed to do
She performs her expected duties without seeking pleasure
She travels far with her mind
She has a vivid imagination and often daydreams
Leaves her body far behind
Her mind escapes reality, leaving her body behind
You told me to be silent
Someone advised silence
I swallowed all my anger
Had to suppress feelings of anger and frustration
You probably didn't even know
The person who advised silence may not have understood the true pain and hurt
What this caused in me
How this affected me emotionally and mentally
