The legendary song Forever Young by the German synth-pop band Alphaville was released in 1984 as the third single from their self-titled debut album. It became one of the most iconic tracks of the 1980s – an immortal ballad about youth, hope, and the transience of life.
The lyrics were written by vocalist Marian Gold during the tense years of the Cold War. The song reflects the fear of the future, the anxiety of a possible nuclear threat, but also the longing for eternal youth – not in a physical sense, but as a symbol of purity, courage, and the untamed energy of young people.
“Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst — are you gonna drop the bomb or not?”
With its melancholic melody, captivating synthesizer sound, and powerful message, Forever Young became a timeless anthem for an entire generation. Since its release, the song has appeared in dozens of films, TV shows, and commercials, and has been covered by countless artists – from Youth Group to Jay-Z – remaining one of the most played hits of the 1980s.
🕊️ It’s not just a song about youth, but about the desire for our dreams, values, and memories to live on forever.

Legendárna pieseň Forever Young nemeckej synth-popovej skupiny Alphaville vyšla v roku 1984 ako tretí singel z ich debutového albumu rovnakého názvu. Stala sa jednou z najikonickejších skladieb 80. rokov – nesmrteľnou baladou o mladosti, nádeji a pominuteľnosti života.
Autorom textu je spevák Marian Gold, ktorý pieseň napísal v období napätia studenej vojny. V texte sa odráža strach z budúcnosti, obavy z jadrovej hrozby, ale aj túžba po večnej mladosti – nie v telesnom zmysle, ale ako symbol čistoty, odvahy a nespútanej energie mladých ľudí.
“Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst — are you gonna drop the bomb or not?”
Melancholická melódia, podmanivý syntetizátorový zvuk a silné posolstvo robia z „Forever Young“ nadčasovú hymnu celej generácie. Pieseň bola odvtedy použitá v desiatkach filmov, seriálov a reklám, prerobená množstvom interpretov – od Youth Group až po Jay-Z – a dodnes patrí medzi najhranejšie hity 80’s éry.
🕊️ Nie je to len pieseň o mladosti, ale aj o túžbe po tom, aby naše sny, hodnoty a spomienky zostali navždy živé.
🎼 FOREVER YOUNG
Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst
Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?
Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power, but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men
Can you imagine when this race is won?
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune
The music's played by the, the madmen
Forever young
I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever and ever
Forever young
I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever young
Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later, they all will be gone
Why don't they stay young?
It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading horse
Youth's like diamonds in the sun
And diamonds are forever
So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
We'll let them come true
Forever young
I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever and ever
