"'More'" is a song by The Sisters of Mercy, from their album 'Vision Thing'. It was the first single from the album, reaching number one on the 'Billboard' Modern Rock Tracks chart for five weeks, starting 15 December 1990. The song was co-written and co-produced by Andrew Eldritch and Jim Steinman.
It was covered by Shaaman on their album 'Reason', and Gregorian for their album 'The Dark Side'. Steinman produced a cover of the song, by Mike Vogel and Erika Christensen, for the soundtrack of the MTV film 'Wuthering Heights'. He also used the song's main guitar riff and the "I need all the love I can get" vocal in a song for his musical 'Batman'.
The song was also re-recorded by Meat Loaf for his 2016 album 'Braver Than We Are'.
