https://youtube/watch?v=QVjvqF2Yhx8 Forever Young - Rod Stewart Lyrics Forever Young is the second single released by Rod Stewart from his Out of Order album in 1988. The song was a Top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #12. The song is a re-write of a Bob Dylan song of the same title. Stewart agreed to share his royalties with Dylan. Rod Stewart wrote the song with two of his band members: guitarist Jim Cregan and keyboardist Kevin Savigar. Stewart told Mojo Magazine in 1995 that he considered Forever Young to be one of his favorite songs and the reason for writing it was, I love Forever Young, because that was a real heartfelt song about my kids. I suddenly realized Id missed a good five years of Sean and Kimberleys life because I was so busy touring all the time. With these kids now I dont make that mistake- I take them on tour with me, so I can watch them grow up. So thats another favorite. Unfortunately, it wasnt a big hit in England, but its like a national anthem here (America). Rod Stewart recorded a more mellow version of the song for his 1996 compilation album If We Fall in Love Tonight. In 1989, NBC Sports used Forever Young during their closing montage for their Super Bowl XXIII coverage. Forever Young was also featured in a Pampers commercial that showcased baby animals with their mothers. It was also used in 2011 at the Emirates Stadium to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the death of David Rocky Rocastle.[citation needed] Aqua Teen Hunger Force character Master Shake lists this song at number 2 on his list of Songs to Toon Out on Entertainment Weeklys website; he then states: Yeah, awesome. Telling your kid hes never going to die is a great idea. Like hes not going to go test that out. When he comes home with a cobra hanging from his neck, dont come crying to me. The New York Times stated that during Stewarts concert in 1993 at Madison Square Garden he strongly encouraged his audience to stay Forever Young, Stewart also showed home videos of himself doing physical activities and also some of his 24-year-old wife and their child. It also was covered on Glee by Matthew Morrison in the season 3 finale Goodbye.
