you people and your Plant obs............DC is nothing like Plant. Because he screams? Please........DC made the 80's rock what is was in the MTV era.....And he still nails it now.
@MediaBoyz09 hey asshole, i would be very surprised if you are a singer and have that poor conception about how to sing using your nose...the breathing technique makes you sing louder but not reaching higher notes...you stupid sucker...How the hell do you think Mark Slaughter, Blackie Lawless or Tom Kiefer from Cinderella reach high notes???? eat that fucking weirdo.
@karce42 that's Vivian playing here with Whitesnake right? Who was playing that crap solo on Dio live Rainbow in the Dark posted on Tube? Not Vivian. He couldn't screw up that solo, if he tried. He wrote it!
to exelentation. that was f'''' hard to write:-) sick and tired of all those people who say david coverdale is a copycat. who the hell is he copying?? robert plant?? come on. let those nimrods think that. they have no clue...
@karce42 Hello... This song is a RIPOFF of Black Dog (0.11), Good Times Bad Times (0.57) and Whole Lotta Love (2.01) That's why he's called "David Coverversion"
@Graffitti74 Well, if we're going to go down that road, you could argue "Black Dog" got its arrangement from Fleetwood Mac's "Oh Well", and Jonesy also acknowledged "Black Dog's" main riff from was inspired from a song called "Electric Mud" by Muddy Waters. There's no such thing as a virgin birth in rock and roll. Look, Whitesnake's no Zeppelin, but "Still of the Night" is a pretty damn strong song.
@Graffitti74 Don't forget "Kashmir" at the 3:00 mark. THAT is why I LOVE this song! Complete rip off of FOUR Led Zep songs. (It's the only Whitesnake song that I love.)
@Graffitti74 no he's called david coverversion because page cut an album with him to 1. experiment, and 2. get back at plant because of the feud. Because coverdale sounded like plant vocally people thought it was led zeppelin trying to reunite with coverdale rather than plant. Plant saw this opportunity to get back at page, and we see what happened.
Sykes must have pissed himself looking at this. For two such experienced guitarists they make such a mess of this. Its like their not sure what Sykes had done and guessed a lot of it.
I was at this tour, but in michigan, and don't get me wrong, i LOVE this line-up BUT the vocals were to loud..you couldn't understand anything but FUCK, and it kept cutting out the guitars....but great white and faster pussycat were great
I was@ the Wichita show that Nikki referenced in his book, laughing while David was sick onstage and Tommy banging Tawny backstage, blah blah. Funny thing is Whitesnake was ten times better. Forevermore is a killer album btw.
Coverdale's a fucking fag, oh yes, he's all "Thanks for your hospitality...:" BET TOMMY LEE AND NIKKI SIXX GANG BANGED TAWNY KATAEN AFTER THIS FUCKING GIG
i dont understand the guys posting here and always criticizing Coverdale´s voice...that´s his fucking style, cant you see that?? It´s falsetto, and that´s it... He´s one of the best rock singers of all times, or do you prefer Axl rose´s voice ???? think it twice.
@sykes0925 pal...when i say "falsetto" i mean a technique called "mezzofalso", it´s when you use your nose to sing, in this song its more than evident that coverdale uses that technique in the highest notes, im a singer too and i always use this technique to reach higher notes, there are lots of singers that use this technique: Plant, Halford, Klaus meine, dokken, etc.
@exelentation yeah i know what falsetto is and i understand what u mean. i just couldn't stop laughing when u said "that's his fucking style". no it's not his style. without his deep low voice, he's worse than nothing.
I must say that Vivian has the solo the closet to the studio recording that I ever heard it live. Particularly the very start which I dont think is even possible on a live guitar, but it sounds similar when he plays it. I mean at 4m11s
Smells like Led Zeppelin!!!!
