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.

Kurz vor Abflug
Clueso Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Du bist aufgeregt und zerstreut, doch es ist okay
Du hast an alles gedacht und der Rest, der steht
Komm freu dich auf das, was noch wartet, du wirst es sehen
Sterne steigen aus ihrem Versteck und du gehst
Eben noch davon geredet schon ist es soweit
Eben noch davon geredet
Kurz bevor dein Flieger abhebt
Gibt es die Stunde, die dir noch bleibt
Genieß den Augenblick vor deinem Weg
Kurz bevor die Reise losgeht
Ist alles getimt in einem Raum ohne Zeit
Genieß den Augenblick für dich allein
Nur hier hat man sich in so vielen Sprachen fast nichts zu erzählen
Und am Gate tut das Fernweh schon gar nicht mehr weh
Eben noch davon geredet, ab hier fällt es leicht
Jeder, der ansteht versteht es
Kurz bevor dein Flieger abhebt
Gibt es die Stunde, die dir noch bleibt
Genieß den Augenblick vor deinem Weg
Kurz bevor die Reise losgeht
Ist alles getimt, in einem Raum ohne Zeit
Genieß den Augenblick für dich allein
The lyrics to Clueso's song "Kurz vor Abflug" are about the moments before embarking on a journey, specifically a flight. The song expresses the feeling of excitement and scattered thoughts that come with being about to depart on a trip. It reassures the listener that it's okay to feel this way and that they have thought of everything they need to. The song encourages the listener to look forward to what awaits them, to see the stars emerging from their hiding spots, and to take that step forward into the unknown.
The lyrics also highlight the fleeting nature of time. In the line "Eben noch davon geredet schon ist es soweit," it suggests that just moments ago you were talking about it, and now it's happening. It captures the sense of anticipation and the realization that time moves quickly. The chorus emphasizes the importance of enjoying the present moment, the hour that remains before the flight takes off, and appreciating the brief period of anticipation before the journey begins.
The song also touches on the universal language of the airport. In the lines "Nur hier hat man sich in so vielen Sprachen fast nichts zu erzählen, und am Gate tut das Fernweh schon gar nicht mehr weh," it reflects the idea that despite people speaking different languages, there is a shared understanding and sense of wanderlust at the gate. It suggests that being at an airport allows for connections and a shared mindset, where the longing for travel is not painful but rather comforting.
