"Forever" kicked off Kid Rock's fifth album, Cocky, as its first single in the fall of 2001, and he took the controls himself, producing the track and mixing it with engineer Al Sutton. He wrote it with Uncle Kracker and Paradime, who also turn up on backing vocals.
Jason Krause and Kenny Olson play guitars, Jimmie Bones adds organ and Stefanie Eulinberg drums, all of it pitched as a swaggering rap-metal strut. It climbed to 18 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart and 21 on Modern Rock Tracks, and got to 27 in Australia. Pamela Anderson appears in the video, and on stage he has taken to delivering the vocals over an instrumental of Rush's "Tom Sawyer".
