FLASHBACK: IS THIS LOVE - WHITESNAKE

Quite possibly the most dramatic pop/metal band of the 80s, Whitesnake put out their self-title album in 1987 and it was a massive, massive success, going on to become one of the best selling albums of last couple of decades. The first two singles, Still of the Night and Here I Go Again, are classics and so was their third single (and my fave) Is This Love. A rock ballad (all the rage in the 80s) this song shot to #2 on the Hot 100 and stands as one of the best singles and videos of the decade. The video featured the "Whitesnake girl" and girlfriend at the time of lead singer David Coverdale, Tawny Kitaen. She stared in a series of videos for the band at the time and she is a hot hot hottie in this one. She is just a hot mess now (poor thing). Well, in this case, let's dwell on the past when men had perms, metal ruled the charts, and Tawny Kitaen didn't look like something you found in your shower drain. Here is Is This Love.
