Slip of the Tongue is the eighth studio album by the British hard rock band Whitesnake, released on 7 November 1989 in the US by Geffen Records and 13 November 1989 in the UK by EMI. The album peaked at number 10 on both the UK Album Chart and US Billboard 200.[5][6] Three singles were released from the album: "Fool for Your Loving '89", "The Deeper the Love" and "Now You're Gone". All the singles hit the US Mainstream Rock Tracks Top 40, two of which, "The Deeper the Love" and "Fool for Your Loving" cracked the Top 5.[7] Slip of the Tongue has sold over one million copies in the US, reaching platinum status.[8] It was the final studio album to be released through Geffen as they were dropped from the label after the Greatest Hits tour by the end of 1994.

"Fool for Your Loving" originally appeared on the album Ready an' Willing, but it was re-recorded for this album.
