These include “With Peppermint I’m Your Prince”, “At 18”, “Johnny W.”, “It’s Hotter”, “Let’s Live”, “Freedom”, “Sexy”, “Because I Love You”, “None Time”, “Here Again”, “Angel” and “Willless”.

The work is released in different versions, the largest configuration is a box with 75 songs on 8 LPs or 5 CDs with a hardcover book and some unpublished photos and liner notes. There is also an unreleased version of “Dicke” in a rehearsal room version, of “Steh auf” in the version from a “Wetten Dass?..” performance in 1992 and of “Unterenlos” in a duet with Sido.
