Their debut album "Small Chamber Works" was released in 2001 on their own label "1St. Decade Records".
Later, Larry Lowe (Guitars) joined the band and brought some rock influences. Since then they sound similar to bands like The Faint, Fischerspooner and Death in Vegas, with both rock and electro influences.
In 2004, Northern Lite released their sequel album called "Reach the Sun".
In the same year, Larry left Northern Lite again and Sascha Littek took over his work.
One year later the band won the German Dance Award as "Best Indie/Electronic Artist" and they released their third album "Temper". The album "Unisex" followed in 2006.
At the German "Bundesvision Song Contest 2007" Northern Lite represented their home state Thuringia, performing the song Enemy with the group "Chapeau Claque".
Later the same year, Sascha Littek left the band, too. He was replaced with Valerian Herdam. A fifth album "Super Black" followed in 2008.
Their latest album, "Letters & Signs - Part One", was released on the 18th September, 2009, followed by Letters & Signs - Part Two in 2010.

The Call
Northern Lite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't you feel the same?
The lyric "Don't you feel the same?" in Northern Lite's song "The Call" suggests an introspective question about relationships and human connection. It raises the idea that perhaps the listener is also looking for a deeper human connection and craving emotional intimacy. The repetition of this line throughout the song emphasizes the importance of this question and reinforces the idea that everyone wants to feel connected and understood.
The song's lyrics also talk about the beauty of nature and how it can help us find solace and escape from the complexities of everyday life. The verses talk about walking through the woods and feeling the wind brushing through your hair. The chorus again repeats the question "Don't you feel the same?" but then adds, "The call of the wild, the call of the wild is calling you." Meaning that nature has its own way of calling us and connecting us to something greater than ourselves.
Overall, the song seems to be a call for a deeper sense of connection to ourselves, each other, and the natural world. It challenges us to ask ourselves whether we feel the same desire for that connection and the peace that it can bring.
