This song is still 🔥. This group was epic!

[@brigid4815]

The slow down is amazing 🔥🔥🎶 the 80s had the best music

[@GreenEyedLady]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Jimmy Page has played his guitar w a bow of a violin as well. Double guitar, I think, and I know he played it in The Firm, Radioactive (80s Supergroup). Also - Jimmy Page put out a CD in like 89, 90, 91 ish w this lead singer, David Coverdale. You def need to check that out. There's a song on there called Over Now that sounds like the love of my.kife, Robert Plant.

Is this a remastered version? The Bass Guitar sounds more prominent in the mix, the Guitar Shred Solo is louder, there are other subtle differences as well. I've listened to this song for 35 years and I've never heard it sound exactly like this.

[@rohaun8196]

Yup I noticed that as well. Thats also NOT John Sykes`s tone on that guitar solo.....

[@j4wn]

@@rohaun8196 The Guitar solo has somehow been made louder in the mix, just like the Bass has. I think it is still the original studio version but somehow altered. John Sykes was the Studio Guitarist but he had left or fallen out with Coverdale (which isn't difficult) by the time the video was made. Coverdale brought in Vandenburg and Campbell after Sykes had gone.

[@rohaun8196]

@@j4wn I know the story. I'm a huge John Sykes fan and I play guitar as well. I'm telling you listen closely the guitar tone on the solo sounds a bit thin. It also doesn't sound like a Gibson LP with the neck pick up with the tone rolled off. But thats my opinon..

[@PerseusM76]

He has a filter on the audio. My novice guess, a high pass filter to isolate vocals.

Check out AC/DC live at River plate any one of their songs legends👏👏💜

Great review! When listening to late seventies and early 80’s metal music, try not to pay too much attention to where they charted. Metal was big but at that time many of them received very little radio airplay. Bands like Metallica were selling out entire arenas with no radio airplay. White Snake were big back in the day.

[@spudsinyourduds]

Not to mention the star studded cast in this video David Coverdale Rudy Sarzo bass guitar Vivian Campbell guitar Adrian vandenburg guitar Tommy Aldridge on drums. Heavy metal giants of that time.

[@dipsydoodle7988]

I could be wrong, but I think the reason this album did so well is because there were a total of 3 releases from it that were hits. Of the three, this wasn't the one that got the most air time, but to me it is by far the best one. I love the darker feel to this one and that breakdown is still fire 30 something years later! Btw, the lady just recently passed. She was the lead singers real life girlfriend and was featured in several Whitesnake videos.

[@zmbdog]

Five singles. Only four had videos though, but radio was still a good promotional tool back then so you didn't always _need_ a video to break a song. It was getting kinda rare not to have one though.

[@Kimmielove70]

One of the best coverts live💙💙💙 miss those days and motley crue yesssss🎵🎵🎵🎵

[@caucasianbulldog6057]

Viv Campbell and John Sykes on guitar and Tommy Aldridge smashing the hell out of those drums. Just rock heaven.

[@vincegedeon6583]

Thats not Tommy on drums its Ansley Dunbar both are amazing though!

[@nikosmourelatosofficialcha5902]

Only Sykes

[@ram930]

Thank you for keeping the 80's alive!

[@louiemiller6469]

Still on my playlist ...One of the best rock songs ever 🤘❤When they were a couple - they were so 🔥

[@pennydaytreasures8173]

Such an iconic 80s song, really takes me back. I was in high school and yeah the 80s were just like this. Women felt empowered by our sexuality but we didn’t want it all. We just wanted to be still in the night with our man by our side. I was surprised when you read off the stats on this song, but I guess it’s because we just had so much good music to choose from.

[@justarepublicandog2505]

Listen up! She was the epitome of sexy… 😮😅😊

[@R777-RLM]

I like a lot of the "Hair" bands too, they made good music. Their look was for show, at least it wouldn't look like they just got out of bed and went on stage. On this song, they did play that sound with a bow. Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin did that as well, I think on "Whole Lotta Love," but I'm not positive.

[@dannymcgovern40]

I prefer the late 70’a early 80’s Whitesnake.

[@Rudy4099]

Alex. check out: Living Color - "Cult of Personality"!!! And yeah, WS reaction was very cool!

[@Nfn-.josh_]

🎙I will be one of the greatest artist of my generation🌏🔥

[@ralfuz777]

Excellent reaction! Based on what you said about the type of rock you like, I have the perfect follow up live performance for you to react to. Just search for Kiss - Love gun [East Rutherford 6/27/2000] it’s one of their best performances!!!

[@TexasMagnolia]

In my opinion, this is their best song. But, I’ve just recently come to appreciate their music. When released in the 80’s…I took offense. I felt they were stealing Zeppelin…Robert Plant’s sound and look; Jimmy Page using a bow on the guitar.

[@allisterfiend_2112]

If you like this heavier sound, check out their album ‘Slide It In’ which was the album right before this one. ‘Slide it In’, ‘Slow n Easy’, and a good ballad called ‘Love ain’t no stranger’! The whole album is good, but that’s just the first 3 that popped in my head.

[@Snakehead1964]

Jimmy Page stole that idea with the bow himself in the late 60ies ;-)

[@jordonlongley6576]

It sounds really off.
