"Forever Young" is a song by German synth-pop band Alphaville from their 1984 debut studio album of the same name. The single was successful in Scandinavia and in the European German-speaking countries in the same year.
"Forever Young" achieved more success in the United States than in the United Kingdom, but it failed to reach the American top 40 despite three separate US single releases.
Though not the group's highest-charting single in Europe, "Forever Young" was one of the band's signature songs and has been covered by numerous artists.
It also formed the basis of Jay-Z's song "Young Forever". "Forever Young" is written in the key of C major.
