'Is This Love' by Whitesnake Classic '80s rock ballad. I have heard many people do not like the song for whatever reason(too mainstream perhaps? WHO CARES!). I think David Coverdale's voice is really great on this one. I defiantely prefer his sound here than on most of the group's hard rockers. Its seductive and passionate in the most soothing of ways. And the guitar solo, by I believe John Sykes, is just awesome and is certainly head and shoulders above many of the excessive guitar solos that you were hearing around the time in the whole glam-metal music genre.
Is there anyone else who likes the song or are you one of the ones that really does not care for this song at all? | |

This is probably the only tune I like by this band.
Maybe the best 80s Hair-Band ballad of the lot. The guitar parts make sense for this type of tune and are not just an excuse to jack-off. tA  Tribal Disorder

I like it, but I prefer "Here I Go Again."  "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

I'm not much of a hair band listener, but "Is This Love" is just a great power ballad. ... [Edited 2/19/07 12:13pm] | |

Whitesnake were complete and utter shit, with David "Robert Plant - The Tribute Act" Coverdale was a titanic arsehole. There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently | |
