“Forever Young”

“…a stark, epic song that would become essential for every post-1984 high school graduation, drips sadness and never fails to cause a listener to nostalgically reflect on life and loss.” (allmusic.com)

“Forever Young” is a song by German synth-pop band Alphaville. It’s on the soundtrack of the movie Napoleon Dynamite. “Forever Young” is also the title of a Bob Dylan song that was covered by Joan Baez. Rod Stewart recorded a song with the same title; while not a straight cover, it was similar enough to Dylan’s that Stewart ended up giving him a share of the royalties.
