#RoGuaNavy Every teenage boy? No! Everyone who is attracted to women. She's the ONLY woman I had on my wall as another woman myself. I had such a massive crush on her, as a teenage girl and as an adult woman.
I miss those years 20 in 1982 30 1992 rough time then but that decade beat yes I partied ass off FSU Big Rapids MI yes got lots of cuties back then lol
I was just going to say the same 2 songs. Man, the memories of having teenage girl hormones when this stuff came out! lol Man, the memories of having the body of a teenage girl instead of an old lady. lol
The actual orchestral part was programmed and played by session keyboardist Don Airey. Don has been the keyboard player in Deep Purple since 2002. Don did two albums with Whitesnake. The violin bow is faked even live. The orchestral part is done by a keyboard player or it's on a backing track.
In the mid late 80's, Whitesnake was on top of world!!! And I'll say it again and again, my childhood was in the 70's and my teen years were in the 80's. I couldn't have been born in the BEST TIME!!!!!
We lived in the greatest era for Rock Music, beautiful ladies, and recreational mood enhancing “supplements”. We also lived PRE AIDS/HIV and were able to live dangerously with the ladies. 😂 I wouldn’t trade 1980 - 1985 for ANYTHING, with 1983 being extra special!
Yes, that's his girl. same woman--Tawny Kitaen (RIP). And yes, the 80's "hair bands" were all about exemplifying sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll. But Whitesnake was more than just a hair band. their music effortlessly blends powerful rock anthems with soulful ballads, showcasing their unparalleled ability to evoke deep emotions and electrify audiences. Their timeless sound and charismatic performances continue to captivate fans, like myself, across generations, solidifying their place in rock history.
I always figured the spray was her perfume mixed with the smoke from that cigarette she had earlier in the video. A lot of women spritz it in the air and walk through the spray so it isn't overpowering.
There's no comparison between this song and how women are sung about in rap songs. This is hot. A sexy man singing about his gorgeous woman. And that breakdown with the guitar played with a bow is fire. Definitely playlist.
Nothing can ever be enough said about David Coverdale the singer's voice whitesnake's been out since the seventies every lineup has been incredible always has top tier musicians with him
Tawny Kitaen appeared in several 80's rock videos. Before Whitesnake she dated a guitarist from an LA band RATT. She appeared in their videos & on a couple of their album covers. She dated OJ Simpson once or twice also
She also dated a pitcher from the California Angel's, by the name of Chuck Finley. Yes, you can invert the 1st syllables of the 1st & last names & come up with something... interesting. Just picture Kitaen: "Chuck me harder, please!"
And then later in life she beat the hell out of her husband, professional baseball player Chuck Finley, so bad that he had to miss a start, she was arrested on abuse charges and he had to get a restraining order against her. Still, nothing will ever take away the memories of watching her in these videos as a teenager.
When you see him do this LIVE…. Omg. The song is about sex like most rock songs. But it’s not verbally aggressive. Rap is about vulgarity. Not one vulgar word in this song. Yes…. This song is a little harder rock than others you’ve heard.
I'm amazed how "offended" he gets by these "tongue in cheek" tame rock songs. I guess he never heard of Sex, Drugs and R&R "Clutching his pearls" because of some PG Rated imagery is laughable compared to blatant Rap songs and videos. It's practically p_rn
@@dawnbailey910 Some years after Eddie Phillips of TheE Creation. There are some videos online for "Making Time" and Painter Man" by them. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_Phillips_(musician)
Tawny Kitaen was married to a Pitcher Chuck Finley of California Angels and there was a domestic disturbance and she was charged with domestic violence and he actually missed a start do to the injuries he sustained...a few months later he was warming up for a game against the White Sox and the White Sox DJ played this song over the PA...the DJ was fired that day
He was a Cleveland Indian when they met and when the stelletto episode happened. After having 2 children they divorced but they were working on getting their marriage another try and called it off right before it was to take place and next thing you heard about them was her passing
I watched MLB way back when Dale Murphy was an outfielder with the Braves all the way up until 2008.... sometimes the announcers and dj's could be giant jackasses, to try to rattle him with making light of his DV, blech!
Okay the 80s weren't just for the guys. These bands were primarily for the ladies for the women to go to the concert so the boys would follow because I damn well know we were licking that fucking screen watching the men in the bands. The 80s were so awesome! 😊
Take me down slow and easy, make love to me slow and easy....Slow and Easy. Slide it, right to the Top, Slide it in, ain't never gonna stop....Slide it In. A couple other Whitesnake jams to check out.
This was on a lot of peoples "fuck" list. A list of songs you put on when you are getting down. The rhythm...its all about the rhythm. Having Led Zeppelin's Kashmir before or after this song = 15 minutes of steady pounding.
Still of the Night is my absolute favorite White Snake song. Total eargasm. The rocking out, the build then the release. The violin/guitar playing makes my heart kick into overdrive every time since I was a teen in the 80's
I saw them live in 1990. At one point during the set, both of the guitarists and bassist were using bows, they were playing Beethoven. It was so crazy good, I bet 90%+ of the crowd had no clue, but everyone was going wild.
This is one the best songs of the 80s! Getting to see this live is an experience I'll never forget. Slow and Easy,Slide it In,Fool for your Lovin, Give Me All Your Love. Here I Go Again has been overplayed to the nth degree. We lived the sex,drugs and rock n roll life everyday!
I’m subbed to 7 music reaction channels, and you have become the only one thatI actually watch every single day. Love most of the music you check out. Gen X from Alabama here ❤
Still love Whitesnake all these years later. This is one of my fav songs. IMO the musical composition here is pure genius. Thanks for reacting. Keep Whitesnake coming 😊
Should check out L.A. Guns. We use to call bands like them sleaze rock. It's heavy metal. Sex Action, Rip and Tear, I Wanna Be Your Man. Guitarist is Tracii Guns. Started a little band with a singer named Axl, back in the day. Such an overlooked band these days.
As a rocker, yes i can confirm, we are! :) Fun fact, none of the musicians in the video (except the leader singer) were on the album. The album musicians quit the band after the album was made and before the video. So they had find musicians to play for the video. The dark haired guitarist with the pink guitar is now with Def Leppard.
Adrian VanDenburg was on the other guitar ( Vivian Campbell joined Def Leppard). Rudy Sarzo played bass,and Tommy Aldridge played drums in this vid. They DID become the touring band,actually. T
I'm going on 60 and our Rock n' Roll music was very sexy and passionate back in 79-85. Whitesnake was one of my favorite songs to dance to as a exotic performer. We had some good times partying and drinking. "Watch Love Aunt No Stranger" or "Slow & Easy"
This was our jam driving around in the late 80's with the windows down blasting this!!!! Checking out the guys hawling hay and just being crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This band had stand out musicians and terrific compositions, Tawny Kitaen and the video are sexy for sure. By the way she was a terrible drug addict and died young. Tommy Aldridge is one of the best drummers to ever do it. David's vocals are amazing, he was formally with Deep Purple. Mtv and 80s sexy videos are terrific, just dont forget the music drives it all. I was in my 20s during the 80s and yes it was a blast. 🤟
Tawney Kitaen. She was in about half of the music videos and album covers produced during this period along with several movies. Sadly, she just passed away a couple of years ago. She was married briefly to David Coverdale, and dated O.J. Simpson (among many others) when he was still married.
At the end of the video, that was actually the girl getting thrown in the 'Sex Police' van. Not the lead singer, Coverdale. Same girl that was in the other videos: Tawny Kitaen. They were going out at the time that they were shooting these videos. They married shortly after but the marriage only lasted a few years. Coverdale went on to meet another woman, Cindy, in 1993 and they were married a couple years later and have been together ever since and have a son together. Coverdale had a marriage previous to Tawny and has a daughter from that one.
This is the song that saved me from rap music fandom in late '87. My cousin gifted me the tape for Christmas & the rest is history. I was then shunned by the other neighborhood guys who were all rap fans. I took the other path & was a metal head for the next couple years. No Regrets. #GenX 😎🚬
I saw them live in Toronto in the late 80s they opened up for Kiss and I had front row center and it kicked ass. If you want to see incredible violin bow on the guitar Led Zeppelin Dazed and Confused live MSG from 1973. Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️
David Coverdale was married to Tawny Kitaen, who a lot of people remember from "Bachelor Party" with Tom Hanks. David is one of the best vocalist in the biz, with incredible range. He was also in Deep Purple in the middle 70's when Tommy Bolin replaced Richie Blackmore when he and Roger Glover left to form Rainbow. The guitarist on this vide was John Sykes, not Vivian Campbell, who had been fired by Whitesnake partway through the recording of this album.
This is the song we'd use to ensure our car steroes and amps were tuned just right. Pushing those 3-way 6X9s to the max. My little Toyota 4X4 had an Alpine head unit, and Qty 6 - 6X9s, 2 - 6in 2ways, 2 - 4in 2ways, a couple tweeters and a 1200W multichannel amp. That thing shook to this song.
Tawny Kitaen got seen in millions of households thanks to Whitesnake. She was also in Bachelor Party a classic dumb comedy with a very young Tom Hanks. BTW neither of the guitar players in the video (Adrian Vandenberg & Vivian Campbell of Dio fame actually played on this song) the guitar is John Sykes who was in Thin Lizzy.
I loved it back in the day. Maybe it didn't age well, but it's pretty common for its time. I enjoy it, but I'm a product of the 80's. Just a different era with different standards of normal.
Definately on my playlist ever since it first came out, and yes , he is using the bow from a violin to play his guitar during that awesome break . Deep purple did it for one of the best rock song intros on knockin at your back door.
David Coverdale formed Whitesnake in 1978 after Deep Purple split. They were a heavy Blues Based Rock style. David got Bernie Marsden to join the band and they became song writing partners on many of Whitesnake’s biggest hits. From 1978 to 1982’s Saints and Sinners album, Whitesnake stayed in that Blues Rock lane. Fellow Deep Purple bandmates Ian Paice and Jon Lord joined the band also for a few albums. Then David wanted to jump on the United States Hairband bandwagon and started changing personnel with the 1984 album Slide It In. I still prefer the original Whitesnake lineup and sound. In 1987 Whitesnake released their Hairband debut album Whitesnake, with their revamped lineup, and it contained the hit song “Still Of the Night”, and their biggest hit “Here I Go Again '87" written by David Coverdale and Bernie Marsden. This was previously released on their 1982 album Saints and Sinners. Many of the biggest post ‘87 Whitesnake songs were re-recorded songs from their 1982 and prior albums. "Walking in the Shadow of the Blues" was on their 1979 album Love Hunter and was also written by David Coverdale and Bernie Marsden. Their 1980 album Ready An’ Willing contained the song, “Fool for Your Loving" another great song co-written by David Coverdale and Bernie Marsden. Also on the Ready An’ Willing album was a song that David Coverdale wrote pre Whitesnake, “Blindman”. It is an all time favorite of mine. It is something special. Just a beautiful song. I’ll leave the link for it below. “Blindman” ua-cam.com/video/pF_gza3e49w/v-deo.htmlsi=QizGpqHo14zOifVF
Gen X'r here, digging watching you young guys discover the music we cruised to. Slow and Easy should be your next Whitesnake reaction.
Gen X!!
Slow and Easy is good or even Slide It In
Crying in the rain >
I was thinking the same thing!!
Young Guns, that was a good sound track 😂😂
Tawny Kitaen was the nightly dream of just about every teenage boy, at this time. RIP, Tawny.
guilty. The only gal poster I had on my wall.
For sure!!
Same for some of us young lesbians not knowing we were lesbian at the time 😂
Kelly LeBrock too!
#RoGuaNavy
Every teenage boy?
No!
Everyone who is attracted to women.
She's the ONLY woman I had on my wall as another woman myself.
I had such a massive crush on her, as a teenage girl and as an adult woman.
The woman is Tawny Kitaen. She was married to the lead singer, David Coverdale. She's also in a few other rock videos around this time.
Also her leg is immortalized on a Ratt album cover with......rats.
R.I.P TAWNY KITAEN !
I was just about to say i think they we're married😂
He said something about that opening scenes effect on 14 or 15 year olds. Still has the same effect on me at 52 it had at 15.😅
I first saw her in bachelor party before music videos.
80s was all about partying and getting laid. It’s all in our music. Our long hair made us do it lol.
@@andy60234 I was a total sucker for any guy with long hair back in those days. It took a while for me to grow out of that phase lol
I miss those years 20 in 1982 30 1992 rough time then but that decade beat yes I partied ass off FSU Big Rapids MI yes got lots of cuties back then lol
@@Dawnofcreation Right!? Me and the guys I would date usually had matching metal hairstyles 😂
Like the 60's weren't like that at all.😆😅🤣
Actually, with each successive decade, America becomes more and more a police state.
Make us do it, not, made. (I was born is 1980, so not so much actually... :D )
Tawny Kitaen is the beauty in the video. She passed away 3 years ago. She was 60 years old. RIP
Give Whitesnake Slide it in and Slow and easy a listen! KEEP ON ROCKIN!
And yes, those songs are about exactly what you assume they are.
I was just going to say the same 2 songs. Man, the memories of having teenage girl hormones when this stuff came out! lol Man, the memories of having the body of a teenage girl instead of an old lady. lol
YES! After Still of the Night, those are my next fave Whitesnake songs!
He thinks they are horny now...lmao
Yes. He really does use s violin bow for that guitar part. I was lucky enough to see these guys in Atlanta on this tour. Coverdale’s voice is amazing
Synthesyzers on the album, the violin bow in the video here just was show
@@Snakehead1964 maybe but in concert he used it
@@720kla still for show..

This doesn’t make your playlist!?!? Jesus, this is one of their most badass songs
@michaellynch9550 this is more of a commercial song. Much better songs from whitesnake. The Slide it In album was way better than this album.
@@danno7583 if you like other songs better that’s OK. I’m just saying this song is definitely playlist worthy.
@michaellynch9550 nah. This song is tame. Easy listening radio play. Gets old after 10 listens. Definitely not playlist.
@@danno7583 that’s OK if it’s not playlist worthy to you. It is to me. That’s the beauty of music. There’s something great for everybody.
Yah this is one my all time top favs from that era. And def my fav by Whitesnake along with Crying in the Rain.
Come on man, the whole theme of the 70’s - 80’s was ‘sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll’.
We lived in the greatest era for Rock Music, beautiful ladies, and recreational mood enhancing “supplements”. We also lived PRE AIDS/HIV and were able to live dangerously with the ladies. 😂 I wouldn’t trade 1980 - 1985 for ANYTHING, with 1983 being extra special!
FINALLY! My fave Whitesnake song!!!! ❤️❤️❤️🤘🏼🤘🏼
Yes, that's his girl. same woman--Tawny Kitaen (RIP).
And yes, the 80's "hair bands" were all about exemplifying sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll.
But Whitesnake was more than just a hair band. their music effortlessly blends powerful rock anthems with soulful ballads, showcasing their unparalleled ability to evoke deep emotions and electrify audiences.

This is why sex comes first in sex, drugs, and rock n roll
I always figured the spray was her perfume mixed with the smoke from that cigarette she had earlier in the video. A lot of women spritz it in the air and walk through the spray so it isn't overpowering.
David was before formt Whitesnake the Singer of Deep Purple
R.I.P. Tawny Kitaen... Heartbreaker of the 80's for sure.
There's no comparison between this song and how women are sung about in rap songs. This is hot. A sexy man singing about his gorgeous woman. And that breakdown with the guitar played with a bow is fire. Definitely playlist.
In rock women are adored worshipped in rap theyre disrespected
Nothing can ever be enough said about David Coverdale the singer's voice whitesnake's been out since the seventies every lineup has been incredible always has top tier musicians with him
Tawny was just drop dead gorgeous sadly she was just as crazy as she was beautiful......RIP....
I remember wearing out the Whitesnake cassette. Did a lot of Friday cruisin to their music. Guns n Roses, Joan Jett, Kiss, etc. Good times!
Tawny Kitaen appeared in several 80's rock videos. Before Whitesnake she dated a guitarist from an LA band RATT. She appeared in their videos & on a couple of their album covers. She dated OJ Simpson once or twice also
She also dated a pitcher from the California Angel's, by the name of Chuck Finley.
Yes, you can invert the 1st syllables of the 1st & last names & come up with something... interesting.
Just picture Kitaen: "Chuck me harder, please!"
And then later in life she beat the hell out of her husband, professional baseball player Chuck Finley, so bad that he had to miss a start, she was arrested on abuse charges and he had to get a restraining order against her. Still, nothing will ever take away the memories of watching her in these videos as a teenager.
She was also on the cover of RATT's Out of the Cellar album
When you see him do this LIVE…. Omg. The song is about sex like most rock songs. But it’s not verbally aggressive. Rap is about vulgarity. Not one vulgar word in this song.
Yes…. This song is a little harder rock than others you’ve heard.
Agreed
I'm amazed how "offended" he gets by these "tongue in cheek" tame rock songs. I guess he never heard of Sex, Drugs and R&R
"Clutching his pearls" because of some PG Rated imagery is laughable compared to blatant Rap songs and videos. It's practically p_rn
Yes, that is John Sykes playing the guitar with a violin bow although he is not in the video. Jimmy Paige of Led Zepplin has also done it.
Jimmy Page was the first to ever do it. Yes, they at times are wanna be Zeppelin
Rudy Sarzo on bass in the video but Neil Murray on the album.
There was no violin bow on the album, it's a synthesizer

This was a big hit in the mid 80’s ! 🔥💯
The steam is the dry ice machine.You'll see it in every rock show back in the eighties

The album musicians quit the band after the album was made and before the video. So they had find musicians to play for the video.

I'm going on 60 and our Rock n' Roll music was very sexy and passionate back in 79-85. Whitesnake was one of my favorite songs to dance to as a exotic performer. We had some good times partying and drinking. "Watch Love Aunt No Stranger" or "Slow & Easy"
You gotta do slow and easy. Great track
Check out Cryin in the Rain with the drum solo
Yep yep!
Love This Song, WhiteSnake Yeah😂

Iconic, symbolic, the most representative song of the 80's Hair metal and I dare to say on the top 5!!
old school rock and roll. great song
When we first saw this as teens and he had the bow on the guitar, it blew our minds. We used to blast this video every day after school on MTV.
This band had stand out musicians and terrific compositions, Tawny Kitaen and the video are sexy for sure. By the way she was a terrible drug addict and died young.

This is my favorite song of theirs. Grew up on this music!
Saw them in concert in the late 80s. He did in fact use the bow to play the guitar on this song.
This is the song we'd use to ensure our car steroes and amps were tuned just right. Pushing those 3-way 6X9s to the max. My little Toyota 4X4 had an Alpine head unit, and Qty 6 - 6X9s, 2 - 6in 2ways, 2 - 4in 2ways, a couple tweeters and a 1200W multichannel amp. That thing shook to this song.
Huge Whitesnake fan! My daughter's name is Tawni ( named long before this was released). I have been a fan of David's since before Whitesnake.
This one is my fave.
Tawny Kitaen got seen in millions of households thanks to Whitesnake. She was also in Bachelor Party a classic dumb comedy with a very young Tom Hanks. BTW neither of the guitar players in the video (Adrian Vandenberg & Vivian Campbell of Dio fame actually played on this song) the guitar is John Sykes who was in Thin Lizzy.
U have to check out Whitesnake "Sailing ships".
You need to do ”Love Ain’t no Stranger”!
I loved it back in the day. Maybe it didn't age well, but it's pretty common for its time. I enjoy it, but I'm a product of the 80's. Just a different era with different standards of normal.
Definately on my playlist ever since it first came out, and yes , he is using the bow from a violin to play his guitar during that awesome break . Deep purple did it for one of the best rock song intros on knockin at your back door.
This was my very first concert, my 17th birthday. . Crazy times...
I've loved this song since I first heard it in 1988. I was 12. That guitar riff great.
This is straight up Hard Rock and yes us Rockers are very sensual!❤ got to love it
David Coverdale formed Whitesnake in 1978 after Deep Purple split. They were a heavy Blues Based Rock style. David got Bernie Marsden to join the band and they became song writing partners on many of Whitesnake’s biggest hits. From 1978 to 1982’s Saints and Sinners album, Whitesnake stayed in that Blues Rock lane. Fellow Deep Purple bandmates Ian Paice and Jon Lord joined the band also for a few albums. Then David wanted to jump on the United States Hairband bandwagon and started changing personnel with the 1984 album Slide It In. I still prefer the original Whitesnake lineup and sound. In 1987 Whitesnake released their Hairband debut album Whitesnake, with their revamped lineup, and it contained the hit song “Still Of the Night”, and their biggest hit “Here I Go Again '87" written by David Coverdale and Bernie Marsden. This was previously released on their 1982 album Saints and Sinners. Many of the biggest post ‘87 Whitesnake songs were re-recorded songs from their 1982 and prior albums. "Walking in the Shadow of the Blues" was on their 1979 album Love Hunter and was also written by David Coverdale and Bernie Marsden. Their 1980 album Ready An’ Willing contained the song, “Fool for Your Loving" another great song co-written by David Coverdale and Bernie Marsden. Also on the Ready An’ Willing album was a song that David Coverdale wrote pre Whitesnake, “Blindman”. It is an all time favorite of mine. It is something special. Just a beautiful song. I’ll leave the link for it below.
“Blindman”
