Whitesnake


A little something about Whitesnake
The U.K.-based band found their place on the map in 1987 when the album Whitesnake sold 17 million copies worldwide and spawned two top 10 hits, "Here I Go Again," and "Is This Love?" . Before hitting the U.S. charts in 1987 with Whitesnake, the band, led by Deep Purple alumnus David Coverdale, was a U.K. favorite for over a decade. Eventually, interest by U.S. record executives translated into two top-10 hits: "Here I Go Again" and "Is This Love?" But the public never got to see the men behind the music. That's because Coverdale, who owns the band, fired the entire team just before Whitesnake came out, and hired another set of players for the tour and the videos. But it didn't stop there. Over the years, Coverdale went on to hire and fire several generations of band members and, eventually, after 1989's semi-successful Slip of the Tongue, Whitesnake went on hiatus.

Lyrics below : "Here I go again", "Is this love?"

Here I go Again

I don't know where I'm goinbut I sure know where I've beenhanging on the promises in songs of yesterday.An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more timebut here I go again, here I go again.Tho' I keep searching for an answerI never seem to find what I'm looking for.Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.Here I go again on my owngoin' down the only road I've ever known.Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.Just another heart in need of rescuewaiting on love's sweet charityan' I'm gonna hold on for the rest of my days'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.Here I go again on my owngoin' down the only road I've ever known.Like a hobo I was born to walk alone.An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more timebut here I go again, here I go again,here I go again, here I go.An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.Here I go again on my owngoin' down the only road I've ever known.Like a drifter I was born to walk alone'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.Here I go again on my owngoin' down the only road I've ever known.Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more timebut here I go again, here I go again,here I go again, here I go,here I go again.



Is this love I should have known better Than to let you go alone It's times like these Can't make it on my own Wasted days, and sleepless nights An' I can't wait to see you again I find I spend my time Waiting on your call How can I tell you, babe My back's against the wall I need you by my side To tell me it's alright 'Cos I don't think I can't take anymore Is this love that I'm feeling Is this the love that I've been searching for Is this love or am I dreaming This must be love 'Cos it's really got a hold on me A hold on me I can't stop the feeling I've been this way before But, with you I've found the key To open any door I can feel my love for you Growing stronger day by day An' I can't wait to see you again So I can hold you in my arms Is this love that I'm feeling Is this the love that I've been searching for Is this love or am I dreaming This must be love 'Cos it's really got a hold on me A hold on me Is this love that I'm feeling Is this the love that I've been searching for Is this love or am I dreaming Is this the love that I've been searching for Is this love or am I dreaming Is this the love that I've been searching for Is this love or am I dreaming Is this the love that I've been searching for Is this love or am I dreaming Is this the love that I've been searching for Is this love or am I dreaming Is this the love that I've been searching for Is this love is this love
