Her debut album "Noxxious" and her single release "Society" soon guaranteed crowded dancefloors in alternative clubs and they still do today.
Her follow-up album "Paradoxx" (1998) is marked by electronic sounds, melancholic beats and lyrics full of end time romanticism. "Stupid" conquered Belgium's sales charts - her charts entry from zero to place 2 drew international attention on the German electro artist.
In 2001, after a three year break, "Exxtasy" was released. Sara for the first time really was able to present all the variety of her vocal timbre. Her songs, such as "Winter Again" and "Last Desire" became modern classics.
2003 was the time many scene relevant music magazines called the "Noxx Year". Sara once more entered new paths, released her instrumental album "Nonvoxx" which convinced even the last few sceptics when it was sold out within a very short time. In Autumn 2003 the album "Equinoxx" and the single cd "Colder & Colder" were released which claimed the no. 1 position of all European alternative charts for several weeks.
"Lyrixx", Sara's first book with poem's of her, was published in Spring 2004 - it is a unique amalgamation of fear and love with poems both vulnerable and impeaching . Critics lavished her with compliments. Sara Noxx - a versatile artist one can expect to surprise again and again in the future.

The Beating
Sara Noxx Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bloody faces - protecting diguise
Feel the morning with closing heart
Rain is falling and tearing apart
Feel the meaning, release your pain
You shout for her, but you can't restrain
Feel the beating with all of your might
The sun will never defeat your night
Bloody face - protecting disguise
Feel the morning with petrified heart
Whenever it's raining it's tearing someone apart
Feel the heating - try to run
There's nothing left for you except a lonely gun
Feel the kindling with burning heart
Placebos helps to get over part
Feel the morning, release your pain
Suppliant words, but only empty frame
Feel the beating - with all of your might
Retreat yourself, defeat the night
Feel the bearing with closing eyes
Bloody faces - protecting disguise
Who can help you now to get over part
Feel the bearing with your petrified hear
The lyrics of Sara Noxx's song "The Beating" are quite cryptic and metaphorical, but one can discern a sense of pain, despair, and struggle that the singer is going through. The first stanza talks about feeling the beating of something with closed eyes, and how bloody faces provide a kind of protective disguise. These lines can be interpreted as the singer trying to ignore or avoid some painful reality, yet being unable to escape its effects. The second stanza talks about the morning and how rain is tearing apart something/someone, which could be a symbolism for the singer's emotional turmoil. The line "release your pain, you shout for her, but you can't restrain" suggests that the singer is trying to find a way to cope with their pain, but they are not succeeding.
The third stanza talks about feeling the heating (perhaps a reference to anger or passion), but not being able to escape the loneliness and desperation that come with it. The line "the sun will never defeat your night" implies that the singer feels stuck in darkness and can't see a way out. The fourth stanza talks about feeling the kindling (perhaps a reference to hope or optimism) with a burning heart, and how placebos can help one cope with pain. However, the line "suppliant words, but only empty frame" suggests that the singer feels like all their efforts to recover are futile. The fifth stanza talks about feeling the bearing with closed eyes, and how no one can help you get over the pain. The final line "feel the bearing with your petrified heart" implies that the singer is frozen in fear or despair.
Overall, the lyrics of "The Beating" are quite evocative and poetic, but their meaning is somewhat elusive. One could interpret them in different ways, depending on their own perspective and experiences with pain and struggle.
