Forever Now is the third album by The Psychedelic Furs. Roger Morris (second guitar) and Duncan Kilburn (horn) having left the band, the foursome were augmented by producer Todd Rundgren's house horn section and Flo & Eddie. It was released in September 1982 on the CBS Records label. It featured the hit single "Love My Way." It was reissued with bonus tracks in 2002 by Columbia/Legacy. The reissue also used Barney Bubbles' originally album cover design. Columbia changed the album cover to the red-tinted design to imitate the design of the previous album Talk Talk Talk.
