"Time of Our Lives" is a song recorded by American rapper Pitbull and American R&B singer Ne-Yo for the former's eighth studio album Globalization. It also appears on Ne-Yo's album, Non-Fiction. It was released on November 17, 2014 as the third single from the album by RCA Records. It was produced by Dr. Luke, Cirkut, Michael "Freakin" Everett and Lifted. The song marks the second coming for Pitbull by Ne-Yo, following the smash-hit "Give Me Everything" (2011); co-producers Dr. Luke and Cirkut also mark their fourth joint production for Pitbull (after "Timber", "Wild Wild Love", and "We Are One (Ole Ola)") and third for Ne-Yo (after "She Knows" and T-Pain's "Turn All the Lights On"). It became Pitbull's most successful single from Globalization, reaching number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100. "Time of Our Lives" also went to number one on the US Rhythmic chart.
The music video was first released onto Pitbull's official Vevo channel on December 25, 2014. It was directed by Gil Green. On January 20, 2015 a behind the scenes video was also released on the channel. The video has received over 130 million views.
The video shows Pitbull and Ne-Yo saving up their spare money to save up for a New Year's Eve party in 1999. Pitbull appears in an old school Varsity jacket dancing while Ne-Yo sings along in the crowd of women while sporting a fitted hat and Aviators. Fergie is at the party.
