"Here I Get Again" is a song by British rock band Whitesnake. Originally released on their 1982 anthology, Saints & Sinners, the power ballad was re-recorded for their 1987 self-titled album. The song was re-recorded again the same twelvemonth in a new "radio-mix" version, which was released as a single and hit number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on 10 October 1987, and number nine on the UK Singles Chart on 28 Nov 1987. The 1987 version also hit number one on the Canadian Singles Nautical chart on 24 October 1987.

In 2003, Q magazine ranked it 962nd on their list of 1001 "All-time Songs E'er".[seven] In 2006, the 1987 version was ranked number 17 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the '80s.[8] In 2012 Reader's Poll of Rolling Stone information technology ranked as ninth among Top 10 "The Best Hair Metal Songs of All Fourth dimension".[2] In 2017, The Daily Telegraph included it amidst Top 21 best power ballads.[ix]

Background and writing [edit]

The song was written past the atomic number 82 singer, David Coverdale, and former Whitesnake guitarist, Bernie Marsden. The well-nigh notable divergence between the original and re-recorded versions are a slight alter in the bluesy lyrics and pace.[10] The re-recording of the song in 1987 was advised by record labels bosses Al Coury and David Geffen as a negotiation bargain with Coverdale to re-record "Crying in the Pelting" for the band'due south self-titled album Whitesnake released in 1987.[11] [12] [thirteen]

The chorus of the original version features the lines:

And hither I go over again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've e'er known
Similar a hobo I was born to walk alone

In an interview, Coverdale explained that initially the lyrics had "drifter" but as that was already used in different songs he chose instead "hobo", however the latter was inverse once more to "out-of-stater" in the re-recorded '87 version, reportedly to ensure that information technology would not be misheard equally "human being".[10] [12]

The song was used in the climax of romantic comedy moving-picture show Man Up (2015).[10]

Composition [edit]

The vocal is composed in the key of G major and a tempo of 91 BPM.[xiv]

Music video [edit]

The '82 music video features the band performing the vocal onstage.[12] The music video for the '87 re-recorded version was directed by Marty Callner.[15] The video includes, besides the band's stage performance, appearances past model Julie E. "Tawny" Kitaen, who was married to Whitesnake's David Coverdale from 1989 to 1991.[two] [12] Her notable sex-appeal was immediately recognized, having memorable unchoreographed scenes dressed "in a white negligee, writhing and cartwheeling across the hoods of 2 Jaguars XJ" which belonged to Coverdale (white) and Callner (black).[xv] [xvi] [17] Coverdale recalls that he fifty-fifty brought choreographer Paula Abdul to the set to show some moves to Coverdale's girlfriend Tawny, but just to positively exclaim that she couldn't "show her anything".[18] [19] [20] Coverdale's iconic white Jaguar once more appeared in the music video for single "Shut Up & Osculation Me" from their 2019 studio album Flesh & Blood.[18] [21]

The song's '87 video was placed on New York Times list of the 15 Essential Hair-Metallic Videos.[22]

This version topped the charts,[12] and appeared on the Greatest Hits album in 1994 (3:54).
