The foundations were placed by Alex Seiberl and Sandro D'Incau but couldn't find a lead singer for the band. After a long search for a lead singer, the band found Andrea in 2001. She became the lead vocalist and their debut album, "Atlantis", was released later in the same year.
"Atlantis" was very successful and Lunatica were booked for many concerts and festivals. Playing at Metaldayz festival (the biggest metal open air festival in Switzerland), Lunatica was elected "best newcomer band" and gained a lot of new fans.
For the second album, "Fables & Dreams", the band worked together with successful producer Sascha Paeth, known for productions of Rhapsody, Kamelot, Angra, After Forever, Edguy, and Heavens Gate. Sascha Paeth created the powerful production Lunatica desired. The songs were developed better and the band had more time to compose and arrange them.
"Fables & Dreams" was released on February 16, 2004 in Switzerland and climbed directly to place 13 of the Swiss Internet Charts. This continued to be a success over that year.
Lunatica released their third studio album, "The Edge Of Infinity", in August 2006.
Their fourth album "New Shores" was release on February 27, 2009.

The Power of Love
Lunatica Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and the dewdrops are sparkling like stars
I feel the touch of a mild breeze caressing my skin
as I'm running to reach your strong arms
[Chorus:]
What greater gift could I get to feel alive
than the power of love in your eyes
that must absorb the falling rain
I am longing for your warm embrace
On my way through the forest I can hear a soft voice
But inside my heart it grows strong
It tells me to follow so I don't hesitate
It will lead me to where I belong
[Chorus]
The lyrics to Lunatica's song The Power of Love express the deep longing of a person who is seeking the presence of their beloved. The imagery the singer uses to describe the morning - the first light touching the leaves, dewdrops sparkling like stars, and a mild breeze caressing the skin - convey a sense of hope and renewal that comes with being in love. The running to reach the strong arms of the beloved indicates a sense of urgency and the need to be close to that person.
The chorus emphasizes the transformative power of love, with the singer stating that nothing makes them feel more alive than the power of love in their beloved's eyes. The metaphor of a blooming rose in a barren place that needs to absorb the falling rain to thrive is particularly striking, indicating that the singer feels incomplete without the embrace of their beloved. The second verse continues the theme of following the call of love, with the singer hearing a soft voice in the forest that grows stronger in their heart, encouraging them to follow it to where they belong. This reinforces the sense of destiny and the idea that the union of the two lovers is inevitable.

When the first light of morning is touching the leaves
As the sun rises and illuminates the trees around me
and the dewdrops are sparkling like stars
I notice the sparkling droplets of dew on leaves and grass which shine like stars
I feel the touch of a mild breeze caressing my skin
The gentle wind brushes my skin tenderly
as I'm running to reach your strong arms
I'm eagerly rushing towards your embrace, hoping to meet you soon
What greater gift could I get to feel alive
Nothing can compare to the feeling of being alive, which comes as a result of true love
than the power of love in your eyes
The true essence of love lies within the eyes of my beloved, their gaze makes me feel strong and powerful
Like a blooming rose in a barren place
Just like a rose blossoms in a place that was once barren, so does my heart thrive when I am with you
that must absorb the falling rain
Just like a rose needs water to continue blooming, I need your love to survive and continue living
I am longing for your warm embrace
I always crave the feeling of being tightly enveloped in your loving arms
On my way through the forest I can hear a soft voice
I hear a gentle whisper in my mind as I walk through the woods
But inside my heart it grows strong
The voice within me grows louder and more compelling as I draw closer to you
It tells me to follow so I don't hesitate
The voice within me urges me to follow my heart and not hesitate to pursue my true love
It will lead me to where I belong
I trust that following the voice within me will lead me to you, where I belong
