2003 studio album by Yvonne Catterfeld
The album debuted at number one on the German Albums Chart and was certified Platinum by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI). Elsewhere, it reached top three in Switzerland and the top five in Austria, going Gold in both nations. At the 2004 awards ceremony, Meine Welt won Catterfeld the Echo Music Prize for Best National Rock/Pop Female Artist. Preceded by four singles, it spawned the number one hit "Für dich" which became a chart topper in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland.
Promotion
Meine Welt was preceded by the singles "Komm zurück zu mir" (2001) and "Niemand sonst" (2002), both of which were released under Catterfeld's surname, as well as singles "Gefühle" (2002) and "Für dich" (2003), the latter of which became her breakthrough single as well as one of the biggest-selling songs of the year, reaching number one in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. Her biggest-selling single, "Für dich" was certified Platinum in Germany and Gold in Austria and Switzerland, respectively.
laut.de editor Eberhard Dobler rated the album two out of five stars. He found that "mediocre standard arrangements, boring computer sounds and often a clean acoustic guitar dominate the production Yvonne Catterfeld's love songs fortunately do not contain excessive pathos - her voice rather spreads the atmosphere of gentle eroticism. You can only wish her better producers for her next album."
Chart performance
Meine Welt debuted at number one on the German Albums Chart in the week of 9 June 2003. It remained seven weeks within the top ten and was eventually certified Platinum by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI) for shipment figures in excess of 200,000 units. Meine Welt also reached the top three in Switzerland and number four on the Austrian Albums Chart.
