Here I Am is the second studio album by German singer Alexander Klaws. It was released by Sony BMG on Hansa Records on 12 July 2004 in German-speaking Europe.
Critical reception
Stefan Johannesberg from laut.de noted that Here I Am was a make-or-break album for Klaws, deciding whether he remains relevant or becomes a "one-hit phenomenon." He described "Sunshine After the Rain" as "almost rock-oriented" and "Behind the Sun" as leaning toward "shallow folk-pop reminiscent of Chris de Burgh," but criticizes Klaws' vocals and the songwriting, warning listeners could "drown in kindergarten English." Still, he found that the album was working as "easy listening" background music.
Commercial performance Here I Am reached number one on the German Albums Chart, matching the peak success of his debut album Take Your Chance (2003), while charting at 25 in Austria and 26 in Switzerland, indicating a less dominant performance outside Germany.
