18 til I Die is the seventh studio album by the Canadian singer-songwriter Bryan Adams. Released on June 4, 1996, by A&M Records, the album became a commercial success peaking at No. 1 in the United Kingdom and No. 2 in his home country Canada. It was recorded on different locations which included Jamaica and France. 18 til I Die featured the number one song "Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?", which had been released as a single and on the soundtrack to the film Don Juan DeMarco over a year prior, and 4 other singles: "The Only Thing That Looks Good on Me Is You" (the album's second single, released May 28), "Let's Make a Night to Remember", "Star", and "18 til I Die"; the album track "I'll Always Be Right There" was also released to radio in the United States. Adams traveled throughout North America and Europe to promote the album after its June release, notably playing in front of over 70,000 people at Wembley Stadium in July 1996. The album performed lower than expectations in the US but it sold 5 million copies worldwide

Lyrics
I wanna be young the rest of my life
Never say no, try anything twice
'Til the angels come, and ask me to fly
Gonna be 18 'til I die
18 'til I die
Can't live forever, that's wishful thinkin'
Whoever said that, must have been drinkin'
Don't wanna grow up, I don't see why
I couldn't care less if time flies by
18 'til I die
I'm gonna be 18 'til I die, yeah
It sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55
18 'til I die, alright
Anyway, I just wanna say
Why bother with what happened yesterday?
That's not my style, I live for the minute
If you wanna stay young, get both feet in it
18 'til I die
A little bit of this, a little bit of that
A little bit of everything, got you out on track
It's not how you look, it's what you feel inside
I don't care when, I don't need to know why
18 'til I die
Gonna be 18 'til I die, yeah
It sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55
18 'til I die
'Cause one thing for sure
I'm sure gonna try, yeah
Alright
Yeah, don't worry about the future
Forget about the past
We're gonna have a ball, yeah
Gonna have a blast, we'll make it last, yeah
Yeah, 18 'til I die
I'm gonna be 18 'til I die
It sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55
18 'til I die
I'm gonna be 18 'til I die, alright
I'm gonna be 18 'til I die
Alright, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh
18 'til I die

Dreamy instrumental music that at times has the same pastel nostalgia as vaporware in its sprightly keys and big beats. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 17, 2022
