Background

Forever Yours is originally a song that Avicii started working on in Malibu in March 2016 after Sandro showed him his demo. At the time, Avicii was taking a roadtrip from Los Angeles to Miami to work on new music that he would premiere at Ultra Music Festival that year. Forever Yours was one of several songs worked on during this trip. Later in 2016 Avicii played another version of the track at his Ushuaia closing set. However,

could not release a final version of the song before his death. Norwegian DJ

and Swedish singer and songwriter

got the opportunity to officially finish what

had started. Although the entire production was remade from scratch, Sandro and Kygo took the liberty to use Avicii’s chords from the well known UMF 2016 version. In December 2019, the two artists performed the song live at the Avicii tribute concert, all but ensuring the project had reached completion at long last.
