"Forever" is a Kenny Loggins song from his 1985 album, Vox Humana. It was released as the second single from the album, after "Vox Humana", and became another Top 40 hit for Loggins. The song was originally written for a short film called Access All Areas produced by Jenny Sullivan (ex-wife of Jim Messina, Loggins' former bandmate). Some of its success on the charts can be attributed to its use in the soap opera, The Young and the Restless.
It continues to be a favorite among Loggins' fans, and he often performs this song as a finale for most of his concerts. A live version was also recorded on the video for Outside: From the Redwoods but was not included in the album release. Most recently, in 2013, he performed "Forever" on the MDA Show of Strength.
