18 til I Die (song)

"18 til I Die" is a song written by Canadian musician Bryan Adams with Robert John "Mutt" Lange for Adams' seventh studio album, 18 til I Die (1996). Its lyrics are about maintaining youthful traits, even as one grows older. Released as a single in Canada in 1996 and in the United Kingdom in April 1997, it peaked at number 21 on the Canadian RPM 100 Hit Tracks chart and number 22 on the UK Singles Chart. Six songs recorded live at Adams' Wembley Stadium concert on July 27, 1996, were included as B-sides to its single release, spread out over two discs. They were later included in the album release of the concert. Adams continues to play this song at his concerts.
