"Now You're Gone" is a single by hard rock/heavy metal band Whitesnake from their 1989 album ''Slip of the Tongue''. Recorded in 1988 and featured on the aforementionned album in 1989, the song was released as a single in 1990. "Now You're Gone" follows an alternatively slow/fast paced rhythm. David Coverdale's lyrics focus on a man who desperately longs for a woman after a break-up and is notable for then full-fledged Whitesnake guitarist Steve Vai's shredding guitar and Tommy Aldridge's expert drumming. The song reached number 96 on the US Billboard Hot 100, number 15 on Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks and number 31 in the United Kingdom. It is featured on most of Whitesnake's compilation albums, including the ''Whitesnake's Greatest Hits'' of 1994 and the 20th anniversary edition of ''Slip of the Tongue''. ==Music video== A music video was shot in 1990 in the afternoon before and during a live show in Philadelphia to promote the single. The video was direct by Wayne Isham and features the band playing the song on stage, with footages of the tour and of fans included between scenes of the concert. In the booklet of ''Slip of the Tongue 20th Anniversary Edition'', David Coverdale comments : ''"I remember shooting the video with Wayne Isham in front of a sold out crowd at the Spectrum in Philadelphia, unfortunately it received minimal airplay as MTV was changing its format... still, I think it's one of the best videos we've done..."'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Now You're Gone (Whitesnake song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
