"Never Forget" (also known as "Never Forget You") is the lead single by Russian singer-songwriter Lena Katina's debut solo studio album This Is Who I Am. The song was produced by Sven Martin and Erik Lidbom. It is a pop rock track, driven by electric guitars and keyboard. "Never Forget" had positive feedback, claiming number one in MTV Russia.
A remixes EP was released on March 12, 2012 by Dave Audé, on his label Audacious Records, seven months after the single release. It includes remixes from Audé, Loud Manners, Sharooz and Jeremy Word and has charted on US Hot Dance Club Play, and topped the chart for one week. A live acoustic version of the song can be found on the RAWsession EP, released in March on iTunes.
Notes:
The music video for Never Forget was released in early August 2011. The video starts with Katina waking up in a bright lit room, she then walks into a morgue and sees ex-t.A.T.u. bandmate Julia Volkova and herself dead. The two scenes interpolate. She walks down a hall where eight men are carrying two separate coffins. She follows them to a funeral where she tips a framed photograph of herself over, kisses a photo of Yulia and exits the building. She walks through their graveyard, taking a bouquet of roses out when she leaves. She gets into a car and scatters the flowers.
