then take care is the 26th studio album by German songwriter Reinhard Mey . It was published by Universal Music GmbH in 2013.

content

The album is a mixture of - partly personally colored - love songs ( When you are with me ), biographical texts ( father's coat ), everyday observations ( the handkerchief , good cows go to heaven ) and political texts ( it's time ) The songs about (s) a daughter ( clasps and bows and ribbons ) and (s) a son ( then take care ) play a special role . The latter, like the song Drachenblut from the CD Mairegen , refers to his son who is in a vegetative state (and has since passed away). Wool pays homage to the pop singer Wolfgang Petry .

Unlike on the CD, then mach's gut , Reinhard Mey performed the songs solo with his own guitar accompaniment on his tour of the same name.
