Forever Now is the tenth studio album released by the British pop musical group Level 42, released in 1994. There were two releases of the album with different track listings and cover art. The first release in 1994 RCA records has 11 tracks. In 1996, the album was re-released by the label Resurgence, with 15 tracks including six additional tracks, but without the songs "Tired Of Waiting" & "All Over You". Also some of the songs on this version varied in length from those on the RCA release, and the track "Billy's Gone" was completely remixed.
This album was the final release for Level 42 before the original breakup, and the last studio in the 90's with the participation of three original members Mark King, Mike Lindup and Phil Gould. Level 42 released a new album in 2006 named Retroglide with King, Lindup and Gary Husband and a small participation by Boon Gould. Phil Gould, dismayed at what he felt was the record company's ineptitude, did not go on the road with the band on their Forever Now tour. He was replaced for the tour with live session drummer Gavin Harrison, and Jakko Jakszyk rejoined on guitar.
The album had three British hits: "Forever Now", "All Over You" and the final single that entered in the UK single charts "Love in a Peaceful World", all in the top 40.
2 & 7: originally b-sides on the Love In A Peaceful World single. 3 & 5: originally b-sides on the Forever Now single. 9: previously unreleased. 10: previously available on the Japanese edition of the original album.
