Liebe ist für alle da (English: Love is for everyone) is the sixth studio album by German Neue Deutsche Härte band Rammstein, which was released in most of Europe on October 16, 2009, the United Kingdom on October 19, 2009, and the United States on October 20, 2009. By February of 2010, the album sold 679,500 copies worldwide.

The album title was confirmed on September 1, 2009, in a promotional video for the new single, "Pussy", released on September 18, 2009, in the European Union and September 19, 2009, in the United States. The single's B-side is "Rammlied".

The video for "Pussy" was released on adult website Visit-X, two days before the single. The video features scenes of explicit male and female nudity as well as the band members (played by body doubles in the nude scenes) engaging in sexual activity with women.

In July 2009, a promo version of the title track, "Liebe ist für alle da", leaked onto the internet, along with various promotional materials.

As of October 16, 2009, pictures taken throughout the recording of the album are available on Rammstein's official website.

The album was released on October 16, 2009, in Europe and October 20 in the U.S. It became platinum in Finland before its release, solely from pre-release sales. It debuted at number 3 in the French charts, making it Rammstein's most commercially successful album in France to date. Furthermore, the album entered at number 13 on the US charts, making it Rammstein's highest-charting album in the United States, although it subsequently fell off the US albums chart after four weeks. In Germany, the album entered the charts at number 1 after the best start of a music album in 2009 and beating popular German R&B-singer Xavier Naidoo's new album "Alles kann besser werden". It remained high in the charts until it was censored.

According to Richard Z. Kruspe, "B********" does not stand for "Bastard", but for "Bückstabü", a word made up by the band to mean "whatever you want".

Paul H. Landers stated that tracks which did not make it on the album would appear as B-sides on singles and that there would be a special edition of the album with five bonus tracks.

The song "Frühling in Paris" features lyrics from the song "Non, je ne regrette rien" by Edith Piaf.
