"Mehr davon" (More of it) is a song by Die Toten Hosen. It is the seventh track on the album Ein kleines bisschen Horrorschau . It was also released as a promo single "We Love You / Mehr davon" in 1992 with a cover of the Rolling Stones.

It is about wanting more money, reputation, speed, hate, sex and power.

Initially it was not released as a single from the album, but it became popular and this is probably the reason behind the 1992 promo single. A "Dreadlock-Mix" was released on Auf dem Kreuzzug ins Glück . An English version, titled "More & More", is available on Love, Peace & Money .

The Rolling Stones English rock band

The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London in 1962. Active for almost six decades, they are one of the most popular and enduring bands of the rock era. In the early 1960s, the Rolling Stones pioneered the gritty, heavier-driven sound that came to define hard rock. Their first stable line-up comprised vocalist Mick Jagger, multi-instrumentalist Brian Jones, guitarist Keith Richards, bassist Bill Wyman, and drummer Charlie Watts. During their formative years Jones was the primary leader: he assembled the band, named it, and drove their sound and image. After Andrew Loog Oldham became the group's manager in 1963, he encouraged them to write their own songs. Jagger and Richards became the primary creative force behind the band, alienating Jones, who developed a drug addiction that interfered with his ability to contribute meaningfully.
