David Coverdale Bids Farewell With Whitesnake’s Final ‘Forevermore’ Video

An orchestral remix signals a deliberate coda to a five-decade career shaped by Deep Purple roots, Whitesnake fame, plus recent health setbacks.

Overview

  • Whitesnake released “Forevermore (DC & Hook City Strings – Official Video 2025 Remix)” roughly a week after David Coverdale announced his retirement on Nov. 13.
  • The new version of the 2011 title track was produced by Coverdale, arranged for orchestra by Hook City Strings, and directed by Payton T. Murphy.
  • The video features a white‑draped studio performance intercut with personal images, including black‑and‑white shots of Coverdale with his wife, Cindy Barker.
  • The release accompanies plans to reissue the 2011 Forevermore album, presenting the song in an elegiac, strings‑driven arrangement.
  • Coverdale’s exit follows halted touring since Whitesnake’s last show at Hellfest in June 2022 due to health issues, closing a career that includes Deep Purple, a Jimmy Page collaboration, and a 2016 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction.
