"I Want More" is a song by German rock band Can. It was released as a single in July 1976 and later included on Can's 1976 album Flow Motion. Unusually, it features all members of the band on vocals simultaneously and is characteristic of their Virgin era sound, with lyrics written by Peter Gilmour.

It was the band's only hit single in the UK, peaking at #26,[2] which led to an appearance on Top of the Pops where Holger Czukay mimed a performance on double bass.

The single was reissued on its 30th anniversary in 2006 by Spoon Records and reached number 103 in the UK Singles Chart in June. The single was released on a 7" picture disc, on 12" orange vinyl (limited copy pressing) and in digital download format.[3]

"... And More", also on Flow Motion, repeats the chorus of the track and was included as a B-side to the single release.
