"The Time of Our Lives" is a song recorded by multinational operatic pop quartet Il Divo and American R&B singer Toni Braxton to serve as the official theme song for the 2006 FIFA World Cup football tournament. Written by Jörgen Elofsson and produced by Steve Mac, the song appears on the compilation album Voices from the FIFA World Cup (2006) and on the 2006 European re-release of Braxton's fifth studio album, Libra.

Il Divo and Braxton performed "The Time of Our Lives" during the 2006 FIFA World Cup opening festivities at FIFA World Cup Stadium Munich on June 9, 2006. That same day it was released as a single in continental Europe, reaching the top ten in Switzerland, the top twenty in Germany and Norway, and the top thirty in Italy and Austria, as well as number fifty-two on the composite European Hot 100 Singles.

The single's music video, directed by Nigel Dick, takes place on a football field at night; the Il Divo members are standing on the turf while Braxton is seen on a screen. It is intercut with scenes from FIFA World Cup matches over the years.
