Originally, this video was going to feature Claudia Schiffer but, when Schiffer had to withdraw at the last minute, director Marty Callner suggested using David Coverdale’s then-girlfriend, Tawny Kitaean, instead. This was the first of four Whitesnake videos that would feature Kitaen. It’s also one of the reasons why my generation has a weakness for redheads.
Marty Callner was one of those directors who worked with everyone who was anyone. If you had a successful band in the 80s, there’s a good chance that Marty Callner directed at least one of your videos. Unfortunately, you weren’t dating Tawny Kitaen so your video was not a hit on MTV.
Enjoy!
