At a certain point it was clear to her that she wanted to join and front a band. Aged seventeen, she founded the acid jazz combo Superjuice, together with her friend Funès. In the early nineties, at the height of acid jazz, the band toured through Berlin clubs, gathering a high-profile reputation. During these years, Clara made her first steps in live music. During one of her shows, she met DJ Alex Barck from Jazzanova, who was spinning records as a support DJ. In 1998 he introduced her to the producers of Extended Spirit (2/6 of Jazzanova): Stefan Leisering and Axel Reinemer, that produced a few tracks with Clara. Relaxed and easy, a friendship started with Stefan Leisering and Clara Hill. With him, the song "No Use" was composed which later appeared on the Jazzanova album.

Clara Hill Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am waiting for my morning star
Guiding me all through the day
I am waiting for my morning star
Guiding me all through the day

Little morning star silent as a ghost
You're my faith in time
And even if you've drowned

The side of sky your flag
I will see you rise
Rise rise

I am waiting for my morning star
Guiding me all through the day
I am waiting for my morning star
Guiding me all through the day

Little morning star silent as a ghost
You're my faith in time
And even if you've drowned
The side of sky your flag
I will see you rise
I will see you rise

One day is just a night
One day is just a light
One day is just a night
One day is just a light

Ahhh
Light

Overall Meaning

In Clara Hill's song "Morning Star," the lyrics speak to the desire for hope and guidance. The chorus repeats the line "I am waiting for my morning star, guiding me all through the day," conveying the singer's yearning for a guiding light in their life. The use of the term "morning star" is symbolic, as it is a common phrase used to refer to the planet Venus when it is visible in the morning sky. In mythology, Venus was known as the goddess of love and beauty, as well as the bringer of light. The singer in the song is essentially asking for their own personal "morning star" to bring light and love into their life.

The second stanza speaks directly to the morning star itself, with the line "little morning star, silent as a ghost, you're my faith in time." The singer sees the morning star as a source of faith and hope, even when it may seem lost or drowned out. The imagery of the morning star rising is used as a metaphor for overcoming obstacles and finding strength in difficult times. The final section of the song repeatedly sings "one day is just a night, one day is just a light," suggesting that even in the darkest of times, there is always the possibility for light and hope to emerge.
