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.

Erklär mir
Clueso Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Erklär mir, warum man immer was für sich behält.
Man immer was für sich behält.
(Stell dir vor)
Komm stell dir vor,
Es gäb 'ne Antwort auf jede Frage,
Die du stellst.
Komm stell dir vor,
Es gäb die Antwort von allein.
Wär doch langweilig.
Wär doch langweilig.
Erzähl mir.
Erzähl mir immer, welche Frage dich grad quält.
Erzähl mir doch mal, was du sonst so zurück hältst.
Was du sonst so zurückhälst.
(Stell dir vor)
Komm stell dir vor,
Es gäb die Antwort von allein. (einfach so)
Komm stell dir vor,
Es gäb 'ne Antwort auf jede Frage,
Die du stellst.
(Stell dir vor)
Komm stell dir vor,
Es gäb die Antwort von allein.
(Wär doch langweilig)
(Wär doch langweilig)
Wär doch langweilig.
The song "Erklär mir" by Clueso talks about the tendency of people to keep certain thoughts and questions to themselves instead of sharing them with others. The lyrics ask why this happens and express a desire for more open communication. The opening lines ask why some questions are never asked and why people always hold something back. This is followed by a chorus that encourages the listener to imagine a world where there is an answer to every question, but then suggests that this would be boring.
The second verse of the song asks the listener to share their own questions and thoughts with the singer, to tell them what is really on their mind. The chorus repeats the idea that it would be dull if there was a simple answer to every question. The song seems to be a plea for more openness and vulnerability in communication, suggesting that there is richness and complexity in the human experience that would be lost if everything was straightforward and easily understood.
