The lead singer of Alphaville is Marian Gold, who is now 69 years of age. This song released on September 20, 1984. Almost forty years later, and Mr. Gold still has it. An amazing voice! I just discovered "Forever Young" a week ago and it is already one of my favorite songs. How beautiful it is!
Oh my he still young wow.......handsome...life and death are indeed on the tongue....ill be singing this daily to stay young...in heaven we are forever young. Jesus Christ is the way.❤❤❤❤
With the state of the world its hard to imagine wanting to go back to the cold war Era as the times seemed better back then.... stayvsafe and well everyone ✌️
I thought exactly the same, his voice is pretty much the same as it was at the time of making this song! And the answer to the question in this song- do Yo really want to live forever young? Yes, I do!
Most people specially men when they reach certain age they loose their voice and crackles while vocal range suffer ,but this man’s voice is indeed forever young
Who does not want to live Forever Young? I have so many memories, times, friends, and anecdotes to keep me in a state of mind like... forever young. God bless you all and don't lose that youth who lives in you. 🙏🧓👵🌹
Extraordinary song. I was born in 1980, and Alphaville is the music of my childhood. I am glad I found this orchestral version. This is so beautiful, and I am also glad to see how the singer of the Alphaville has changed along the years. His voice is still powerful and very finely tuned to the song. I do believe this song is a universal message of eternal youth, no matter what your biological age may be. Deep inside of us, youth never dies, it always stays there. I use this opportunity to show my gratitude and deepest feelings to the members of the band for sharing such amazing gifts with the world. All I wish now for myself and for all the people in the world is to enjoy these masterpieces for many years ahead, and stay FOREVER YOUNG. THANK YOU, ALPHAVILLE! WITH LOVE FROM A ROMANIAN FRIEND.
Hi, there is a full and I mean FULL! Album of this orchestral reimagining of the Alphaville songs. The vinyl is 3 records. It’s called Eternally Yours Alphaville! It’s absolutely brilliant! If you liked this…..you’ll love the full album!
Masterfully done!! Some people are born to sing,,,born to play istruments,,drums,etc!! This is indeed a song for the young at heart,,and those who feel eternally young inside!! What a masterpiece!! What a melodious song!! The message,,,the harmony,,,was that a trumpet that's being played? And the keyboardists,,,the choir backing the vocalist in one video!! Majestic!! Wow!!,,,billion dollar song!!
Видел Алфовил вживую лет 5 назад. Приезжали в Екатеринбург. Очевидное-невероятное. Голос у солиста такой же чистый и мощный, как и 40 лет назад. Фантастика!!!
Nel 2025 ancora qui a sentirla la migliore di sempre ...si ha paura della vecchiaia e della morte ma dentro si rimane sempre giovani per sempre .... Forever young❤
When I hear this song reminds me of my dad. We lost him nearly 2 years ago to dementia. We remember the good times and dad will be forever young to us.
@@morlvol There's a lot of vocalists doing it, sad... Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez, you can do a search (autotune/lipsync fail), surprised at all the well known names that came up.
@@laylaazevedo5494and me - it didn't hit the same when then as it does at 54 with so many gone already and our family aging. I'd give anything to go back to the summer of '84
Refreshing to go on a nostalgia trip and find people like Mr. Gold is still doing good. We have lost so many. Every one remaining becomes more precious.
Marian's voice is as good as ever and the adaption to orchestra, created a new level for the song without sounding overpowering. A big thankyou to all, because I'm sure that many worked hard to get this to sound right.
Yo la escuche en 1987 Aunque no sabia que significaba Por que era un niño no sabia ingles pero me gusto nadamas de oirla hoy en dia actualmente Me gusta demasiado POR SIEMPRE JOVEN deveria ser un himno
3:53 that little trumpet is adorable. would love to have one in my office. but i remember this song from my childhood the 80s. the older i get the more i like it. thanks guys for producing this song.
What an incredible performance! Voice hasn’t changed a bit and the music the orchestra made used to be done by just two guys. Alphaville is one of the most amazing groups to ever come out of the 80s. Extremely underrated!
WOW!!!! In an age when we’re seeing so many singers going back on tour and sounding terrible, he sounds incredible!!! He may actually sound better now than then. Amazing version, amazing performance!!!
ingin menangis mendengarkan lagu ini. usia saya sekarang 52 tahun. dan ketika lagu ini hits usia saya 14 tahun. sedih, teringat masa kecil saya, teringat pada kedua orang tua saya yang sudah tiada, teringat kakak saya yang sudah tiada. ingin kembali ke masa kecil yang sangat indah tersebut... love Alphaville
Some are like water, some are like the heat Some are a melody and some are the beat Sooner or later, they all will be gone Why don't they stay young? 😥😥
Потрясающе красивое, величественное зрелище, словно сияние далёких звёзд в ночном небе! Покоряют красота и голос исполнителя и великолепная игра оркестра!
I listened to this song in 1989 as a 10 year old for 1st time..fell in love with it. Listening to this once again is giving me goosebumps..lots of love from India. Amazing age has no effect on his voice.
To think this only reached 98 in the UK charts when it was first released is beyond me. I know the 80’s was full of amazing songs but this has number 1 all over it and everyone knows the song. I suppose it just proves that charts means nothing when it comes to quality music.
Man…his voices sounds incredible. So many singers lose their upper range as they age. Not only does it sound like his range is as it was 40 years ago, but it looks as effortless as he made it seem back then. Impressive.
amo de paixão essa música foreve Yong ela me remete ao passado do qual era muito feliz e não sabia! parabéns Marian Gold por nos proporcionar essa linda meloddy
This was terrific! What a great homage to the original with the musicians, choir, set and adoring audience! Must have felt great knowing he made such a lasting impression on people when he started singing for them 40 years ago. Keep singing! Keep dreaming!
holy crap...his voice didnt change at all
maybe because he unlocked the mystery of the song title👍
His voice is a blessing ❤
well! it did change alot! but its still amazing!
Voice will always be change like falsetto and high pitch and difficult breathing. Only the song will never change 🥰👍

69 years old... Amazing talent and voice still. He truly lived forever young. Good for you Marian!
Singing at the original key, live, a song whose hard enough to sing even at a studio, his vocals is forever young.
It's nice to have a version where he's actually singing it live, and not lip-syncing. He still has it, thank God.
Bro these are singers of old eras. They sang live. Recorded with no effects. All they had their throat
@@abdainawi I've watched a dozen versions of this song. Not sure I saw a single one from the 80s where it wasn't exactly the same as the recording.
@@abdainawi plus, I'm from that era (58 years old). That song came out right after I graduated from highschool.
@@RandyGrace I felt the same thing. But I guess charges can be dropped since he sang live even better & being that old.

He's 70 years old, looks 40, and sounds 25. He really is forever young!
Mit 64 Jahren und 40 Jahre später noch so eine Stimme zu haben ist gottgegebenes Talent. Unglaublich. Herzlichen Glückwunsch, Alphaville !!

Música de la buena
Ist kaum zu glauben.
69 , not 64

He's voice even better after all this years. Matured tone and rich tone. Much better voice quality than the young singers now a days.
Damn, he doesn't look a day older than 40! He truly decided to live forever young!
If that's what 40 looks like then we're all screwed. He looks very young but for his age.
His face is kind of old, it’s just the skin that makes him look very young. Marian must be taking care of his health really well
I cannot hear this amazing, colossal song without tears in my eyes and nostalgia for the 80s' good times!!
His voice hasn't change at all. Forever young indeed.
His voice is phenomenal. He sounds exactly like he did 40 years ago. He has really taken excellent care of his voice ❤

It's amazing that this throat still has this sound after all these years.
Wow, he still has his chops !! Impressive live vocal performance.
People are saying he sounds the same as in the original recording, but I'd say his voice even got a lot better!

What an amazing spiritual voice, even at 70 years old.
because of this symphonic version you really make this song eternal......
He isn't just singing Forever Young, he's embodying it. Bravo, Mr. Gold!
This is such a beautiful song ..timeless and haunting... the melody, his voice.. the unusual musical instruments that the song contain...just amazing
His voice aged like a very fine wine !!!!!!

It was ahead of its time. The main video has 397 million views on youtube. That is a testament of how much it is loved.
So melancholy. Think of the people you loved who have left us and listen to this song. Timeless
Forever Young und für immer einer der größten Hits. Und die Stimme vom "alten Gold" ist einfach nur Weltklasse...
