"More Cowbell"

"More Cowbell" is a humorous catchphrase originating from a Saturday Night Live sketch parodying a recording session for the song "(Don't Fear) the Reaper" by Blue Öyster Cult. In the sketch, a fictional producer insists on adding more cowbell to the track, despite it seeming unnecessary. The phrase has since become a cultural meme, used to jokingly suggest that extra emphasis or effort is needed in a situation, often implying overdoing or exaggerating a particular element for humorous effect. It highlights the idea that sometimes, adding more of a specific detail can enhance or simply entertain, even if it seems excessive.
