After releasing their first album "Breathing avenue" in 2004 they captured the hearts of those, who not only listen to electronic sounds. They offer you danceable, catchy tracks like "Clear" and "High pitched emotions", but also offer you time for dreaming with "Suffocate" or "Afraid of myself". Minerve captured Eastern Europe incredibly fast: Their special edition of their debut´s got sell rankings, exceeding world stars. During an interview they´ve even had to enlarge the radio´s hotline capacities, after Daniel´s liveperformace on air. This fact shows, that music made by synthesizers neither necessary has to be chilly electronic nor old-fashioned and artificial.

Their music has always been lively and full of innovation, that makes Minerve unique. They live their music and want to experience it with their fans. Always openminded for new impressions, they don´t feel like belonging to any scene or any special style of music, but want to broaden their minds and want to capture new worlds. Surely they are a contrast to the common rock music, but with their performance and their professional drummer Minerve appear as a serious rocking live band. Especially for that reason Minerve supported either bands like The Crüxshadows, Iris, Psyche, Spektralized, Lowe or were a part of mass events like the Night of Fights, Party for the Masses or Pluswelt Festival where they could show all of their qualities in front of hundreds of fans.

In 2005 the band was also nominated for the "Deutscher Rock & Pop Preis" in the category "best electronic pop act" and reached the third position at this mainstream event.

After releasing of "My universe" in 2006 the band entered the German Alternative Charts at the 16th position and some other charts or playlists worldwide. Their newest album "Sensefiction" shows once again that Minerve is a pearl within the sea of music, that is worth discovery...

My Universe
Minerve Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

All I gave
All I found
Were your pictures in my sounds
I just want to give my universe

All I have
All I feel
Is an emptiness in me

I just want to give my universe

The light is off
I dream of you
And everything we planned to do
But now you are so far from me

Your smiling face
Your gentle fingers
Every thought of you will bring us together
And each other closer

All I gave
All I found
Were your pictures in my sounds
I just want to give my universe

All I have
All I feel
Is an emptiness in me
I just want to give my universe

Do you think about me?
Sometimes I think you call me
Then I'm going out
And looking for my love

Yesterday a ringing phone
And you said: I'm so alone
Cause I miss you and
I'm waiting at the stairs

All I gave
All I found
Were your pictures in my sounds
I just want to give my universe

All I have
All I feel

Is an emptiness in me
I just want to give my universe

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Minerve's song "My Universe" are a reflection of a deep emotional connection with someone who is no longer present. The singer of the song is lamenting the absence of their significant other and the emptiness they feel as a result. The first stanza expresses how every piece of music they've created has been inspired by their love interest - the pictures in their sounds. The singer then goes on to say they just want to give their universe to their significant other, which suggests they've poured their entire being into the relationship.

In the second stanza, the singer is ruminating on the void they feel. Despite often thinking about their love interest and dreaming of them, the distance between them is too great. The singer can't help dwelling on the memories of the past, from their smiling face to their gentle fingers, and longs to be reunited. The chorus repeats the sentiment of the first stanza - that the singer wants to give their universe to their significant other. The bridge acknowledges the hope that still exists, with the potential for their love to be reignited, and the song closes with a sense of yearning for the return of their beloved.

Line by Line Meaning

All I gave
Everything I ever offered

All I found
All that I ever discovered

Were your pictures in my sounds
The only thing I found of you is in the music I make

I just want to give my universe
I only want to share my world with you

All I have
Everything that is currently mine

All I feel
All that I'm currently experiencing

Is an emptiness in me
An inner void that I'm feeling

I just want to give my universe
I just want to share my world with you

The light is off
The room is dark

I dream of you
I see you in my dreams

And everything we planned to do
All the things we talked about doing

But now you are so far from me
But now we are separated by distance

Your smiling face
The expression on your face when you're happy

Your gentle fingers
Your softly touching fingers

Every thought of you will bring us together
Every time I think of you, we feel close again

And each other closer
And our connection is strengthened

Do you think about me?
Do I ever cross your mind?

Sometimes I think you call me
Sometimes I imagine you're reaching out to me

Then I'm going out
Then I leave the house

And looking for my love
Searching for any sign of your affection

Yesterday a ringing phone
The phone rang yesterday

And you said: I'm so alone
And you told me that you were lonely

Cause I miss you and
Because I feel your absence

I'm waiting at the stairs
I'm waiting by the staircase

All I gave
Everything I ever offered

All I found
All that I ever discovered

Were your pictures in my sounds
The only thing I found of you is in the music I make

I just want to give my universe
I only want to share my world with you

All I have
Everything that is currently mine

All I feel
All that I'm currently experiencing

Is an emptiness in me
An inner void that I'm feeling

I just want to give my universe
I just want to share my world with you
