This time, however, she was not “too young”, but on the contrary, at 17, the oldest of several girls with whom she didn't really know what to do. Suddenly, however, they were sitting together on the couch at Warner Music in Hamburg and signed a record deal, with which Norma was dead happy just a few hours later. Her silent prayers were quickly answered - in fact, the whole deal never realized because the producer and record company fell out at the last moment. And while Norma smiled with satisfaction, the other band members were devastated.

But shortly afterwards, Norma was hit even harder by the death of her mother. Nothing comforts over such a heavy blow... and it didn't help to have been involved in various musical topics at the time. Norma was pressed again and again into product worlds and projects that simply felt wrong to her. Nevertheless, a long-term collaboration was established with the well-known producer Jochen Wenke, who is responsible for numerous advertising songs. This resulted in the title song of a Christmas CD for a well-known company, for example. And yet it was always clear to Norma that she had to follow her inner voice and realize her very own ideas. 

But the final impulse to do so only came years later, after the unhappy end of a relationship. And sometimes a person succeeds in transforming deep pain into a firm decision and the strength to stay true to themselves from now on and only consistently follow their own path.

Many different styles and influences come into play in her compositions. If her musical direction had a name, it would probably be “changeable” because, according to the singer, “I don't want to commit myself to one thing, my repertoire is broadly diversified. The core of my being is love, all songs are created on this basis. Even narcissism, which is the subject of 'I need your Power', deals with love as the driving force, in this case love for oneself.”
