Clueso, named after Inspector Clouseau in The Pink Panther, started making music in 1995. In 1998 he got to know his future manager Andreas Welskop and canceled his apprenticeship training in hairdressing. His first vinyl Clüsolo was released on BMG Ufa the same year. In 1999 he moves to the 10vor10-Studios in Cologne with Welskop. A year later he signs a label contract at Four Music and releases Text und Ton in 2001. Around that time he performs with Curfew at the MTV HipHop Open in Stuttgart and at Beats for Life in Cologne.

In 2002 Clueso moves back to Erfurt and records the Rowdy-Club-Tape 2002. 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.

Bleib Einfach Hier
Clueso Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Bleib einfach hier
Wie oft wünschst du dich weit weg von hier
Weit weg von der Stadt und all dem Lärm
Und trotzdem scheint es so als gäb' sie dir
All das was du vermisst
Wenn du woanders wärst

Bleib einfach hier und lern dich umzusehen

Bleib einfach hier und lern zu sehen

Autokarawanen direkt vor dir
Reichen weit stauen sich auf bis hin zum Kern
Du hast die Nase voll vom
Smog und Dreck von ihr
Suchst einen Gedanken der dich wärmt

Du solltest deine Stadt nicht unterschätzen
Hier hast du so viel
Freunde getroffen lieben gelernt
Wo es am schönsten ist weißt du am besten

Nun hör schon auf alles zu
Entleuchten und zu verzerren

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Clueso's song "Bleib Einfach Hier" explore the theme of seeking escape from the familiar surroundings and noise of the city while simultaneously realizing that there is a sense of comfort and belonging that is irreplaceable. The opening lines, "Bleib einfach hier, Wie oft wünschst du dich weit weg von hier," convey the desire to escape and be far away from the city's hustle and bustle, yet there is an underlying sentiment that suggests the city provides something that is missed when one is elsewhere.

The repetition of the phrase "Bleib einfach hier" emphasizes the importance of staying put and learning to appreciate one's surroundings. The lyrics urge the listener to look around and truly see the beauty and value in the city, even amidst the traffic jams, pollution, and noise that can often be overwhelming. It encourages a shift in perspective to find warmth and comfort in the familiar, rather than constantly seeking something elsewhere.

The mention of "Autokarawanen direkt vor dir, Reichen weit stauen sich auf bis hin zum Kern" paints a vivid picture of the congestion and chaos of urban life, highlighting the frustrations that come with city living. Despite the challenges and the desire to escape, the lyrics prompt the listener to reconsider their perspective and recognize the importance of not underestimating the city they call home.

In the final stanza, the lyrics serve as a reminder of the connections and memories that have been built within the city - the friends made and the love found. It suggests that the beauty of the city lies not only in its physical surroundings but also in the relationships and experiences that have been cultivated there. The song concludes with a plea to stop distorting and exaggerating everything, urging the listener to embrace and appreciate the present moment with all its imperfections and complexities.
