Forever Young - Rod Stewart - MP3 instrumental karaoke

For those who remember "Rod the Mod" Stewart in his prime, Rod Stewart will be "Forever Young." After starting out in the early 1960s, the iconic UK artist went on to weather the tides of disco, new wave, and everything in between, stockpiling an era-spanning back catalogue to which he is still adding in 2024. In 1988, Rod Stewart was deep into his fist-pumping arena rock era with albums like Out of Order mining a muscular sound courtesy of supergroup The Power Station: guitarist and former Duran Duran member Andy Taylor, Chic co-founder and bassist Bernard Edwards and drummer Tony Thompson. Written with guitarist Jim Cregan and keyboardist Kevin Savigar, the album's misty-eyed anthem "Forever Young" was inspired by Rod Stewart's experience of fatherhood and is famously one of his personal favourites. The song enjoyed success in the US, where it went to number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was featured at various large-scale sporting events, including the 1988 Summer Olympics and Super Bowl.
