    Lyrics:
    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 mad man
    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 let them come true
    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, and ever
    Forever young, I wanna be forever young
    Do you really want to live forever? (Forever)

    As a 50 year old man, this kinda brings a tear to my eye. Because I squandered so many opportunites. Along with dumb decisions in the name of fun.
    The saddest part is friends you didn't know you would see for the last time. And places. people, events, and experiences you had. Along with the pure enjoyment of just life in general.
    As I listen to this song and write this, I'm thinking of the good times and bad. Knowing I will never ever experience those again. Knowing the last time I truly enjoyed life was in the 90s, even tho this timeless song is from the 80s.
    So as I'm completely tear up, I hope you enjoy the short time we have left.

    1996-ой год, в СНГ были популярны аудиокассеты из серии "The Best of the West", которые зачастую продавались в пиратской версии, с плохим звуком, двойной дорожкой на одной ленте: одна тише, другая с опозданием, но громче. Это было лето. Каникулы. Я подрабатывал, как и другие школьники, на разгрузке и транспортировке арбузов. С утра их надо было развезти по точкам, вечером собрать остатки. Заработанные деньги шли на сладости, лимонад и аудиокассеты. Лето в самом разгаре, впереди 10-й класс, ожидание чего-то доброго, светлого и волнительного. Так оно и было. Только приятные воспоминания, только тёплые чувства. Разное, конечно, было, а запомнилось только хорошее. Сейчас мне 42 года, но в душе я вечно молодой, Forever Young 🙂

      Make a big deal out of every event in your life. All the landmarks, even the small ones. Sear them in your brain because you're very correct...it goes by in a flash. Only yesterday I was teaching my baby son to walk (he's 28 now), and the day before I brought my daughter home from the hospital, a nervous new dad scared to death he'd have an accident and hurt his little angel (she's 31 now). At 54 (I was a idealistic teen when this song came out and I remember it like yesterday, feeling I'd never grow old) I've learned to live and love every event because literally every day could be the very last one.
      I look at my 3 year old grandson and think, if I could just go back and do it all over again.
      But the secret to staying forever young...you do want to know the secret don't you?...is the "you" that you leave in people's memories. You will be forever young every time they remember you, and they will talk about how you did this or that, and smile.

    this brings a "tear" to my eye, I was 25 in 1980, still lived with my parents, had a hassle free job in the next town, It all seems so far away now doesn,t it? no "mobile phones", no "social media", no problems, everyone knew everyone in your village, no real crime to speak of, i,de come home from work, have my tea, and pop down the local for a game of pool and a pint with my friends without a care in the world! hear "wonderful tunes "like this all night,and everyone was happy!
    then walk home "safe in the knowledge that even though it was dark, no one would mug me for want of a five pound note!
    being 68 and retired now has it,s advantages, I know how "magical those days were like so many of us,we definatly saw the best of britain,
    so different to today! this is why this song brings a tear not of sadness but remembering all those wonderful years of carefreeness and joy,
    no,one can take those days away from us born in the 50,s I ,like so many of us will stay" forever young" if only in our dreams,XXX

      I love it when people from your generation reminisce of the good times. My grandma for example likes to talk about how she went to college in the 60’s, worked 20 hours at a part time job, and made enough money from that for a HOUSE in 1960. Life was so easy back then it’s ludicrous. I’m the same age she was and I go to school, work 50 hours a week on top of that between two jobs to afford one bedroom of a house that I have to share with 3 other people, and forget saving money. You really were lucky to grow up when you did because everything is fucked now.

      Quando, porém, veio Cristo como sumo sacerdote dos bens já realizados, mediante o maior e mais perfeito tabernáculo, não feito por mãos, quer dizer, não desta criação,
      não por meio de sangue de bodes e de bezerros, mas pelo seu próprio sangue, entrou no Santo dos Santos, uma vez por todas, tendo obtido eterna redenção.
      Portanto, se o sangue de bodes e de touros e a cinza de uma novilha, aspergidos sobre os contaminados, os santificam, quanto à purificação da carne,
      muito mais o sangue de Cristo, que, pelo Espírito eterno, a si mesmo se ofereceu sem mácula a Deus, purificará a nossa consciência de obras mortas, para servirmos ao Deus vivo!
      Por isso mesmo, ele é o Mediador da nova aliança, a fim de que, intervindo a morte para remissão das transgressões que havia sob a primeira aliança, recebam a promessa da eterna herança aqueles que têm sido chamados.
      Porque, onde há testamento, é necessário que intervenha a morte do testador;
      pois um testamento só é confirmado no caso de mortos; visto que de maneira nenhuma tem força de lei enquanto vive o testador.
      Pelo que nem a primeira aliança foi sancionada sem sangue;
      porque, havendo Moisés proclamado todos os mandamentos segundo a lei a todo o povo, tomou o sangue dos bezerros e dos bodes, com água, e lã tinta de escarlate, e hissopo e aspergiu não só o próprio livro, como também sobre todo o povo, dizendo:
      Este é o sangue da aliança, a qual Deus prescreveu para vós outros.
      Igualmente também aspergiu com sangue o tabernáculo e todos os utensílios do serviço sagrado.
      Com efeito, quase todas as coisas, segundo a lei, se purificam com sangue; e, sem derramamento de sangue, não há remissão.
      Era necessário, portanto, que as figuras das coisas que se acham nos céus se purificassem com tais sacrifícios, mas as próprias coisas celestiais, com sacrifícios a eles superiores.
      Porque Cristo não entrou em santuário feito por mãos, figura do verdadeiro, porém no mesmo céu, para comparecer, agora, por nós, diante de Deus; nem ainda para se oferecer a si mesmo muitas vezes, como o sumo sacerdote cada ano entra no Santo dos Santos com sangue alheio.

      The real reason singers became world wide pop stars and his solo career blow up was because of the freemasonry hand signs he show`d again and again. The 2 popular hand signs M J used often were 666 and devil horns.
      In most cases the singer shows at least 4 hand signs and these are:
      666
      devil horns
      one eye
      tongue showing aka mocking.
      The talent may be there, but the hand signs must be there. Thats how a soul becomes a “rich and famous” singer or actor.

He blessed us with an amazing grandson who now lives with us. He is 6 and is so much like his dad. Today is my birthday (59). I woke up to this song. I feel like my son-in-law "sends" me this song on the radio as a message to say Hi and to let me know he is OK and looking out for us. I hear it on weird radio stations at the exact moment that I am feeling down or wondering how I will get through the day. Thanks, Eric for continuing to watch over us. We love you and miss you!

    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 mad man
    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 'em come true
    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, and ever
    Forever young
    I wanna be forever young

      What a very insightful comment and in many respects I'd go along with that sentiment, although I do believe there are many songs that last from many other eras, certainly 80s songs seem to summon up most nostalgia and incredible love ...and from todays young too! Look at how many are switching on Radio stations like Boom, Absolute, Smooth, Greatest Hits etc! And switching OFF Radio 1 and 2!

      Methinks part of the song's message was about the Cold War and the uncertainty of human life's continuity then, hence...only watching the skies...always hoping for the best but expecting the worst...

    This still brings tears to my eyes, when I hear it again.Some of my high school friends have passed away at the age of 45. I think about all the times,we spent hanging out. When ,you are young you think the t will always be this way.I wish ,I could tell them how much ,I miss and appreciate them.

    When we're young we want to be old
    When we're old, we want to be young
    Aging is a curse and a blessing.
    If there's one thing God envies about us as humans, it's our mortality.
    To remember your past, your youth will never die. To be young and dumb again is such a priceless tag.
    Nothing you give will ever let you relive those years, so cherish them forever.
