Forever Young
There have been many covers of Forever Young, I say this is probably the best one out there...

The Alphaville leadsinger seemed to force the words out, while the YG singer seemed to sing the song perfectly. Also, The Youth Group version is a lot simpler and cleaner than the Alphaville version. Also, Alphaville sounded like they were trying to force this song to be rock, Youth Group sang it beautifully!

My last friend(I realised I didn't need any friends later) told me about the Alphaville song Forever Young and I loved it. The Youth Group is okay, but not as good as the original.

I heard the Forever Young cover by Youth group a couple of years ago and really loved it. I just now found out about the original by Alphaville. I may only like the Youth Group version better because I heard it first but for me the 80's tech outdoes the beauty of the song & lyrics in the Alphaville version. Youth group's instrumentals are set in a way that makes the song more meaningful. Both versions are amazing. And "RastaFariPete" not all kids spell horribly and use obnoxious abbreviations. Try to have an open mind.

I prefer the Alphaville original, but I actually also really like the Alphaville "unplugged" version. While I don't care for the way they arranged the piano in the second verse, the rest is about perfect and conveys a sense of loss you don't get from the 1984 original -- perhaps appropriate for those listening to it 25 years later.

The original by Alphaville is still the best!
That is way other performers want to cover it. :)

the classic forever young as everyone knows is the original one sung by the group Alphaville.
although the youth group arranged it like a modern sweet rock song (to better suit with the youngster?), i still prefer Alphaville's.

Alphaville's version is way better than Youth Group
