April 16, 2026 — Celebrating 30 years of her timeless global platinum-selling hit “I Love You Always Forever,” Donna Lewis unveils a newly filmed live performance from the historic Woodstock New York venue Bearsville Theater, alongside the announcement of her upcoming live performance album, In a Minute Now. “I Love You Always Forever'” became a worldwide smash hit and untouched by time still holds huge relevance to the multi-generations since its release. Artists including Japanese Breakfast, Betty Who, covered the song while Romy and Fred Again released a new music interpretation to the track.
Revisiting the platinum-selling single from her debut album Now in a Minute, Donna Lewis transforms the beloved track into an intimate, cinematic experience defined by sweet layered harmonies, breathy vocals, and slow-building synth textures. Bathed in violet, blue, and green light, the performance trades nostalgia for atmosphere—offering a living, modern reinterpretation that underscores the song’s enduring emotional pull.
Captured with drifting camera work, ghosted overlays, and immersive close-ups, the visual mirrors the sonic evolution, elevating the ’90s radio staple.
Donna Lewis is joined by her band that includes original collaborators Gerry Leonard (guitar) and Harvey Jones (keyboards), alongside Gail Ann Dorsey (bass, backing vocals) and Doug Yowell (drums). Together, they bring new depth to the track’s signature sound, layering pulsing electronics and expressive instrumentation with an atmospheric glow.
The release marks the first in a series of live recordings filmed at Bearsville Theater, capturing Now in a Minute performed in its entirety. These sessions lead into Donna Lewis’s forthcoming album In a Minute Now, a reimagined body of work that revisits her breakthrough era through a contemporary lens.
Originally released in 1996, “I Love You Always Forever” became a worldwide smash and remains one of the defining love songs of its generation, continuing to resonate across audiences nearly three decades later.
