about

Originally performed by the great Rod Stewart, this version - just me, my voice and my ukulele - is my own. It was inspired by my aging parents and is a tribute to all our journeys and to the agelessness in all of us. I hope you enjoy it.

10% of the profits from the sale of this single will go to the amazing work of Music Mends Minds, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that supports the mind and spirit of people afflicted by neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's, dementia, Parkinson's, as well as traumatic brain injury, stroke and PTSD through musical groups using music as medicine for the mind.

So by purchasing this song, you will be directly helping make possible the healing of even more minds through the power of music. Together, we can make a difference.

lyrics

May the good Lord be with you down every road you roam.
And may sunshine and happiness surround you when you're far from home.
And my you grow to be proud, dignified and true.
And do unto others as you'd have done to you.
Be courageous and be brave.
And in my heart you'll always stay

Forever young. (Forever young)
Forever young. (Forever young)

May good fortune be with you, may your guiding light be strong,
Build a stairway to heaven with a prince or a vagabond.
And may you never love in vain.
And in my heart you will remain

Forever young. (Forever young)
Forever young. (Forever young)
Forever young. Forever young

And when you fin'lly fly away, I'll be hoping that I served you well.
For all the wisdom of a lifetime, no one can ever tell.
But whatever road you choose, I'm right behind you win or lose,

Forever young. (Forever young)
Forever young. (Forever young)
Forever young. Forever young
For forever young

Forever young

by Kina Grannis

Simply put, Kina Grannis sings like an angel. If you haven't heard of her, you must. Her music warms my heart and her voice is beautiful and genuine. The world needs more artists like her. Christina Lazarakis

Piano Is Evil
by Amanda Palmer

Amanda Palmer is a major inspiration of mine. Her work is weird, eerie, and more often than not, I don't even like it. But, I so appreciate her process and her fearlessness and for that, I LOVE it. Christina Lazarakis
