Another year later he starts producing his second album "Gute Musik" (featuring Blumentopf, Steer M, Tilmann Jarmer, Delhia, Tim Neuhaus and Jürgen Kerth), which was be finished by 2004. It does not contain any English tracks and concentrates on singing rather than rapping. In 2005 Clueso represented Thuringia with the song "Kein Bock zu geh'n" at the Bundesvision Song Contest. The same year he was partner of Start Ab, the 'biggest non-commercial remix contest in Europe'.

In 2006 Clueso released his third album called "Weit Weg" which means "far away". Again the album was relased by Four Music. The album is changing mood and style contiuously. It varies between influences of chilled pop, soul, funk and reggae.
Over the last two years Clueso toured with his band. They played over 120 club and festival gigs with a total crowd of 300,000.
On the album Clueso joined forces with the likes of Max Herre (former lead singer of Freundeskreis), Flowin'Immo, New Telephatics and Razkajam.
Ralf C. Mayer who also had produced "Gute Musik", the forerunner of the current album, and artists like Xavier Naidoo and Die Fantastischen Vier helped Clueso to find his sound, from sounds of whisper to grolling bitter thunder.
Clueso is truly one of the future stars in Germany as he is focused, talented and lucky enough to find a channel for his passion.

Clueso Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Immer am Laufen dorthin wo gerade etwas läuft
Doch du bleibst stehn' mit einem Mal bis du Letzter
Denn, da brennt ein Feuer in dir, breitet sich aus
Wird immer größer und größer du wächst aus dir heraus
Gewinnst an Kraft, fängst an irgendwo an zu klettern
Und alle schaun dir zu
Du weißt nicht, was dir fehlt,
Bis du es hast.
Du weißt nicht, was dich qäult,
Was du suchst, du verpasst
Du willst Hoch hinaus
So weit du kannst
Was soll schon passiern'
Der Affe fällt nicht weit vom Stamm
Du spürst den Wind
Von hier sieht man alles besser
Ganz oben angekommen
Spürst du den Puls der Nacht
Der Mond scheint dir zu
Baumkronen wippen im Takt
Du baust dir dein Bett heute aus weichen Blättern
Und alle schaun dir zu
Du weißt nicht was dir fehlt,
Was du suchst, was du willst
Bis du es hast.
Du weißt nicht, was dich qäult,
Was du suchst, du verpasst.
Bis du es schaffst.
Du weißt nicht, was dich qäult,
Was du suchst, du verpasst.
Bis du es schaffst
Bis du es hast.
Bis du es schaffst.
In Clueso's song Baumkrone, the lyrics describe a person who is different from everyone else around them. While everyone else is constantly moving and chasing after the next big thing, this person is content with stopping and taking a moment to fully embrace and appreciate their own individuality. Despite not knowing exactly what they want or what is missing from their life, they are filled with a burning desire to grow and develop into something greater than they currently are. This desire propels them up the tree, higher and higher until they reach the top where they can finally feel the pulse of the night and truly see things from a new perspective.
The lyrics portray a message of self-discovery and growth, urging listeners to find their inner strength and purpose within themselves instead of constantly chasing after external validation and excitement. The metaphor of climbing a tree represents the journey of life and the importance of taking the time to pause and reflect on one's personal growth, rather than just following the crowd.
